BILL R. JOHNSON CTE CENTER

🎬 Student Mockumentary
Casting Call

Auditions — Wednesday, September 30, 2026

We're building a student comedy/mockumentary series inspired by the style of a workplace documentary. The production will give students opportunities in acting, comedy, storytelling, interviewing, filmmaking, photography, audio, editing, graphic design and production.

🎥 About the Project

This is a school-based comedy/mockumentary series following students and their experiences inside the CTE environment. Episodes will combine scripted scenes, documentary-style interviews, improvisation and real student personalities.

Auditions may include a short scripted scene, improvisation, character exercises and documentary-style interview questions.

Important: Submitting this application does not guarantee a role. Students may be asked to audition for a different character than the one selected. Any required parent/guardian media release or district consent is handled separately through the school/district.

👤 Student Information

🎭 Character Descriptions

Read the descriptions before choosing your character interests.

CHRIS

Money/Business-Minded • Confident • Slightly Reckless

Chris is always thinking about money, business, or how to turn a situation into an opportunity.

He's confident and isn't afraid to take chances—even when those chances probably aren't the smartest decision.

We're looking for: Confidence, natural charisma, quick thinking, and someone who can confidently deliver questionable ideas as if they are completely legitimate.

TRINITY

Mature • Professional • Actually Understands the Assignment

Trinity is the student who actually reads the instructions. While everyone else is joking around, Trinity is trying to get the assignment done correctly.

She's mature, responsible, and often finds herself surrounded by people who aren't taking things nearly as seriously as she is.

We're looking for: Natural delivery, strong communication, maturity, subtle comedy, and someone who can play the "straight person" surrounded by chaos.

ABBY

Dramatic • Attention-Seeking • Convinced Everything Is Her Big Moment

Abby sees the camera and immediately sees an opportunity. Every assignment could be her big break. Every conversation could become a performance. Every camera pointed in her direction is basically an audition.

She isn't necessarily trying to be annoying—she genuinely believes she's destined for something bigger.

We're looking for: Strong personality, facial expressions, dramatic delivery, confidence, and someone who isn't afraid to go big when the scene calls for it.

JUSTICE

Sarcastic • Naturally Funny • Doesn’t Take Much Seriously

Justice doesn't have to try very hard to be funny.

Her humor comes naturally through sarcasm, reactions, facial expressions, and perfectly timed comments.

She can make a simple situation funny without turning it into a performance.

We're looking for: Natural comedic timing, sarcasm, deadpan delivery, facial reactions, and strong improvisation.

RYAN

Overconfident • Doesn't Always Know What He's Doing

Ryan is extremely confident.

The only problem? He may not actually know what he's talking about.

He'll confidently explain how something works, make a bold decision, or volunteer for something—and then everyone discovers he had absolutely no idea what he was doing.

We're looking for: Confidence, comedic timing, improvisation, physical comedy, and the ability to commit to a joke without breaking character.

MARK

Casually Irresponsible • Smooth Talker • Somehow Gets Away With Everything

Mark isn't necessarily trying to cause problems. Problems just seem to happen around him.

He's casually irresponsible and somehow always believes he can talk his way out of whatever situation he's created. Even when he's clearly wrong, he somehow has an explanation.

We're looking for: Personality, charm, improvisation, quick responses, and someone who can make excuses sound completely believable.

⭐ Which character are you most interested in?

Select up to three characters. You don't have to be the character—your natural personality may end up being exactly what the show needs.
