Calling all vitiligo patients in the Tristate area! Liz Lewis Casting Partners and SELF by Conde Nast are collaborating on a project that highlights and educates on the impact of vitiligo. We are currently looking for individuals to share their personal experiences and discuss how it affects them both emotionally and physically.
The casting agency is specifically searching for three individuals to participate in the project:
- A young patient aged 12-14 (must be legally 12)
- A senior patient aged 55+
- A portrait patient aged 21-40 who has had vitiligo for 5+ years
Compensation:
- $1,000 for the older and younger patients
- $550 for the portrait patient
The younger and older patients will appear in a video, while the portrait patient will be featured in photographs. The shoot will take place on one 10-hour day during the first week of May, and agency is willing to work around participants' schedules.
If you're interested in participating, the agency would love to set up a quick 5-10 minute zoom call to hear your story and see your personality. Please note that participation in the call does not guarantee participation in the project. All information shared during the call will be kept confidential.
