Calling all hardcore gamers!

Contributing Writer

An Ontario casting call is offering hardcore gamers a chance to show off their skills and win a grand prize of $3,000.

According to Jigsaw Casting, the opportunity is open to experienced Toronto gamers who are between the ages of 18 to 28 and fully vaccinated.

The reality pilot, which is titled PlayON!, will see individuals competing by playing e-sports video games online.

All of those selected will compete in the "development phase of this show," which pays $500 per person for a one-day shoot.

The winner of this contest, who will score $3,000, will then be flown out to Calgary to compete in a live sports playing experience, which includes a chance to meet Olympic athletes and their coaches.

Anyone looking to apply will need to submit a brief introductory self-tape before October 6, 2021, at 9:00 a.m.
