    Samsung’s looking for Galaxy Note 7 owners to star in a new commercial it’s filming

    Samsung is looking for customers who own a Galaxy Note 7 — regardless of whether they were affected by the recall or not — to register to be a part of a new commercial it will shoot in New York City later this month, reports Parent Herald. 

    Interested parties will have to fill in an online form and record a short video documenting their personal experience with not only the handset, but with the South Korean company too.

    Those located in the Chicago area will also have an opportunity to appear in person for auditions. If they can't make it though, they'll still have the option submit a clip online.

    The select few fortunate enough to star in the advert will be flown out to the filming location and will receive a minimum payment of $600 per day for the shooting, which will commence on October 10 and finish on October 17.

    It's currently unclear what the ad will showcase, but we're guessing that that Samsung will use it as an opportunity to display video testimonials highlighting how well it handled the recall and how happy customers are with their replacements.
