Pretty Lucky Jimmy

Vancouver Actors Guide is casting for Pretty Lucky Jimmy, a comedy and adventure film production based in Vancouver, BC. This is an on-screen acting role requiring performers who can authentically portray skateboarders within the production’s narrative, with specific character types including Skate Pirates and Skaters. The role suits performers of any experience level who have real skateboarding ability and want their first or next screen credit on an indie film production.

About the Role

Pretty Lucky Jimmy is a comedy and adventure film project developed under Vancouver Actors Guide, the long-running free resource for the Vancouver acting community. The production is seeking skateboarders for featured roles, meaning your time on set will involve performing skateboarding sequences that serve the story rather than acting exercises. A typical day on this indie film production will center on skateboarding performance, blocking with the director, and on-camera work in a character-driven context.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform skateboarding sequences on camera at an intermediate skill level or above, with consistent and reliable execution across multiple takes.
• Portray assigned characters, specifically within the Skate Pirates and Skaters groupings, as directed by the production team.
• Attend fittings, rehearsals, or pre-production meetings as scheduled by the production.
• Take direction from the director and first assistant director during on-set filming to adjust skateboarding performance and blocking as needed.
• Maintain availability and communication with the production throughout the shoot schedule.
• Submit a complete audition package including headshots, demo reel if available, and resume at the time of application.

What You Bring

• Intermediate skateboarding ability at minimum, with comfort riding in a variety of conditions required for this role.
• No prior acting experience is required, though any screen credits or training are worth including in your submission.
• A current headshot and resume suitable for film casting review.
• A demo reel is welcome but not mandatory for consideration.
• Genuine comfort in front of a camera during physical performance.

Why This Role

Vancouver Actors Guide has supported the local acting community for years as a free resource, and this production reflects that accessible, community-rooted approach to indie film production.
