Picture
You know from my horrendously intermittent posting here that I'm deep into preproduction on my latest film. We roll cameras in two weeks, and I'm looking forward to it. It's a SAG-registered picture toplined by a terrific cast and buoyed by a passionate crew– if you're at all familiar with Seattle's vibrant film and theatre scene, you'll recognize names. I can't believe we've gotten a group this strong together on a single project.

I'll be back to posting regularly after we wrap production on March 5, but in order to get there I need your help. I'm shooting a club scene on Monday afternoon, 3/5 and need you as an extra– if you love to dance, love free food, catering, credit and IMDb credit! Dress code is fancy chic; the scene is supposed to be European. And we're not just looking for youngsters: again, we're in Europe. If you're 21-55 and any of this interests you, or you know someone who does, send me an email!

Thank you. I'll see you on the other side.

Hi Nathan,

Have you thought about using Kickstarter and Facebook to help with your film and other creative projects? I love your blog! It would be exciting to see more of your work.

Best,
Mia
