I work for the production company, B-Reel Film AB, and we are planning to make a campaign for “Save the Children”. We need babies from around the world for the film. What we lack now is a little baby from East Africa (Ethiopia, Eritrea, Rwanda, Somalia, Kenya, etc.) who should be in the age group of 3-15 weeks.

The project is also about Save the Children’s new campaign titled “Life’s Lottery”. It will be shown on the Save the Children’s web site during spring and summer of 2010. The campaign is intended to portray the important work that the organization does around the world and, hopefully, get more people to get involved in Save the Children activites and donate more money.

Filming is next week (any day between January 25 to January 29) and will take about 3-4 hours in Stockholm, probably in Södermalm. The child will be filmed while dressed in fabrics and clothing typical of the country / continent he/she is supposed to represent. In one scene, the child may be in, perhaps, a small cradle while in another scene perhaps only on a blanket or cushion to portray vulnerability in which many children who need help are born. Naturally, the parents will be present during the entire filming process. An allowance of 999 SEK will be paid to parents.

I hope you know someone or can tell others about this campaign so that we can find a baby that can help next week (ie week 4). Thanks and let me hear from you.
