Good Day Kathy & Dave,

My name is Serita Wesley and I am a Development Casting Director with Prospero Productions (www.prosperoproductions.com.au), a television production company out of Australia. We are currently developing an exciting new documentary series based around the worlds of Treasure Hunting, Battlefield Detecting, Aviation Archaeology, Warbird Restoration, Wreck Diving, Battlefield Archaeology, etc.  Unfortunately, we have yet to find a charismatic and knowledgeable host for this series.

I stumbled upon your website while doing research online and wondered if either or you might be interested in the opportunity or know anyone who might be a great fit.  Ideally we would like to find someone who is youthful, incredibly passionate about any of the subjects previously listed, has a wealth of knowledge (its not required to be an expert on all of the sub-categories listed above), someone with a very outgoing personality that viewers would find easy to watch and trustworthy.   
We are looking for individuals in the USA.  I have pasted below the casting notice for this particular search.  Our deadline is fast approaching; therefore, I would love to speak with you and give you more information on the series.

If you or someone that you know of fits this description please contact me, Serita Wesley (Casting Director) at SWesleyCasting@gmail.com

NOTE: Please feel free to pass this note and the casting notice along to any groups, clubs or forums that you might belong to pertaining to the topics.
