Project: HeartForce

Vancouver Actors Guide is casting the male patient role for Project: HeartForce, a non-union corporate video production shooting in Vancouver, BC. This is a performance-driven on-camera role within a single-day corporate production, contributing to a finished medical device demonstration video intended for professional healthcare audiences. The role suits a screen-experienced performer comfortable with physical direction and working within the specific parameters of a controlled clinical set.

About the Role

Project: HeartForce is a non-broadcast corporate video production filming at a private clinic in Metro Vancouver, with the finished piece screening at healthcare conferences and on professional digital channels. The male patient role carries the story without dialogue, with performance supported by narration, music, and on-screen graphics, which places real expressive weight on the actor’s physical presence and responsiveness to direction. The production day also includes still photography within the same booked hours, so performers should expect to move between video and stills coverage across the shoot.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform the male patient character across corporate video production footage with no spoken dialogue, conveying story through physical performance and reaction.
• Work with the director and crew to execute planned coverage within a closed, minimal-crew clinical set environment.
• Consent to the temporary application of adhesive ECG-style patches and a sensor placed on the upper chest for specific shots within the medical device demonstration sequence.
• Open or remove your shirt as required for upper-chest filming, with placement, contact, and boundaries discussed and rehearsed in advance of those setups.
• Participate in still photography sessions during the same production day, maintaining continuity of wardrobe and appearance between video and photo coverage.
• Disclose any adhesive or skin sensitivities to the production team prior to the shoot date.

What You Bring

• On-camera performance experience in corporate video production, branded content, or similar non-broadcast work.
• Comfort performing physical and directed scenes without dialogue, carrying scenes through expression and presence alone.
• Non-union status, as this is a non-union role.
• Confirmed availability for September 19 and 20 in Metro Vancouver.
• A current headshot, resume, and demo reel or acting clip ready to submit.

Why This Role

Project: HeartForce offers a professional one-day shoot with a straightforward scope, a clearly defined set environment, and worldwide perpetual usage across conferences, websites, sales, training, social media, and other HeartForce-owned digital channels. Compensation is $800 per performer for the production day, covering both the video performance and related promotional stills. For performers building credits in corporate video production and branded content, this is a clean, well-defined engagement with clear terms.
