Leo Burnett is here producing a commercial for Nintendo and needs American boys who look between 11-13 and who can act. Know anyone? If so please let Maya May know ASAP because it takes 5 days to document the children for a commercial and they’re shooting next Friday.
Shoot me an email at
mayakmay@yahoo.com.
Thanks!

“You are not your job,” says Tyler Durden, a character in Chuck Palahniuk’s novel, Fight Club, played by Brad Pitt in the accurate film adaption.
While North American readers/audiences might need to hear that, that probably goes without saying in Argentina.
That’s the thesis of American expat, wines guy, and new blogger, Daniel Karlin, in a recent post.
Daniel demonstrates “Qué hacés?” means not “what do you do?” - or even what are you doing, but a vaguer, more casual “what’s up.”
