Hi, we’re Brand Besties and we are tasked with staffing a once in a lifetime high profile immersive activation taking place in Lower Manhattan the week of June 20th.

The feel of the event is that of a Dystopian, Multicultural Asian universe that the guest get to Explore, Discover and Delight in.

The experience consists of three main activations and five key environments. Each us unique and requires a nuanced approach to the casting and roles.

Casting Notes:
Each role is crucial to the narrative of the activation. The collection of people cast into roles will create the human element that drives the narrative home and brings it to life.

Everyone on the team will need to play into the feeling and sensibilities of the activation, which will be revealed in full at the training.

Eloquent: The ability to speak authentically with kindness/professionalism and stay calm under pressure.

Diverse: Primary focus on Asians but inclusive of all other ethnicities and gender identities.

Interest: Unique physical characteristics and a sense of aesthetic (tattoos, piercings, hair style, exaggerated facial features)
