New Reality Show Eyes Malibu High

A new reality show that will document the lives of eight teenagers hopes to pick a cast from Malibu High School, the show's casting director said Wednesday.

Flyers for "Our Summer," which comes from Sean Travis, executive producer of The Hills and The City, began circulating on Facebook and other sites on Monday.

The show will seek to document the lives of eight students through social media such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and other sites, according to Shaggy Bajrami, who is the casting director for the project. Parents will be welcome to work with the show.

"The project will shoot over the summer, not on school campuses. The series will document the cast's lives as they unfold during the summertime. Story lines all depend on the cast that will be the chosen," Bajrami said.

Bajrami hopes to cast students from , Santa Monica or Pacific Palisades high schools, as well as several private schools in West Los Angeles. The hope is to capture the beach culture in Los Angeles, Bajrami said.

"The whole thing depends on the most amazing personalities," Bajrami said. "We are hoping it will come from Malibu. It would be great if they all know each other."

Only students from one high school will likely make the final cut, she said, adding that she is looking for juniors and seniors.

She added that the concept of the show is to explore what happens in the summer after school ends, including what happens to relationships, education and jobs.

"They will be integral to the story telling in that producers will encourage them to communicate on their social media platforms about what the audience is watching unfold on the series itself," Bajrami said.

Bajrami said she hopes Malibu High School makes the cut because of the beauty of the area.

"Malibu to me has this amazing access because it is by the beach it is on PCH. It involves this whole beautiful culture. It’s very scenic and it is very outgoing," Bajrami said.

Anyone interested was asked to send their name, phone number, a photo and a short blurb on why they should be on the show to OurSummerCasting@gmail.com.
