Got the acting bug? Thanks to Pete Birdeno for this tip: Marinella Hume Casting in Portland is looking for people to be background actors (extras) in the TV show “The Librarians,” which films in Portland.

Bill Marinella (pictured) said they are looking for all ethnicities and ages, but especially for Asian men and women 18 and older, to be a “featured tourist” on Monday. Want to try out? First, this weekend, send an email with photos of yourself (full length and head and shoulders), cell phone number, and your name and sizes to mhc.librarians@gmail.com. Put “TOURISTS” in the subject line.

Then, so you’ll be in their database, create a free profile at www.MarinellaHumeCasting.com (click on “Join Us”). You’ll also need to submit at least three photos of yourself for the profile, and there are instructions about how to do this at http://tinyurl.com/MHCastvid. Kids younger than 18 can have a parent or guardian sign them up. You can even add vehicles to the database.

While you’re at it, don’t forget to join the mailing list on their Facebook page to get casting notices at http://tinyurl.com/MHCastlist

“We need real people, all types,” Bill noted. We have no shortage of those around here, so go for it.
