Apple Casting Call for New Product TV Ad?

Friday June 6, 2008 7:35 pm PDT by Arnold Kim
According to an unverified submission, Apple sent out the following casting call through a major talent agency this week to star in an ad for a "new product":

"Apple is look[ing] for a man and woman in their mid-20's to film a demo of a new Apple product. They are not looking for recognizable faces or names, and ideally the person would be "average to mildly attractive with nice hands". They must also have the ability to play the guitar or piano at an intermediate level.

The shoot will take place in Hollywood sometime in the next 6 to 8 weeks. Please let me know if you have any clients interested in this unique opportunity.

Again, Apple is not interested in recognizable talent. The focus will be on the new product and not the person."


Apple recently shut down their 5th Avenue store to shoot a television ad for what was believed to be the 3G-capable iPhone.

Seems like we are definitely going to see "ONE MORE THING...." in addition to the 3G Iphone and the WWDC is really going to be land mark event in more than one way

But from this event it sounds like the new device has the capability to compose music.... or may be apple intends to do a Multi-touch Piano AD like the Windows-7 public demo which is very unlikely....

iTablet or :apple:Wiimote???

Imagine applying to do something that asks you to be "average to mildly attractive with nice hands"....

On getting the job you're thinking.. Jeez. Thanks. Glad I'm not too attractive for you.

Apple is focusing on Musicians?

Hmmm interesting.

Will be nice to see what comes out of this.

Maybe Garageband for PCs?

Steve announces the following,

-iPhone 3G with OS X 2.0 (I really could care less about the phone right now, but I know a lot of people are anticipating it, 2.0 will be good on my Touch)

-.Mac gets updated (probably going to be a name change but hopefully they focus more on the MobileMe for Mac [better services] than the MobileMe for iPhone)

-New 10-inch Apple Tablet

-Revision to Macbook + Pro (even if they just announce a release date)

-OS X 10.6 Snow-Leopard (hopefully Mac only, if they go PC I will be pissed)

I'm getting a $3,200 Macbook Pro next Friday so hopefully something happens :P
