Friday, November 14th, 2008 Movie Extras Needed! I'm working with a group of students on a movie that was for Apple's Insomnia Film Festival. Apple postponed the contest last night, but we are pushing on and will film the movie as planned. The story depends on the season, so by the time the real contest rolls around, it will no longer be relevant.
We need your help! This Saturday we are filming the "big" scene. We need as many extras as possible to be part of an angry mob scene. The weather will be cold, but we won't keep you for long. You should be on your way home in under an hour, likely sooner.
If you are interested, please show up at Springfield High School on Saturday morning (November 15th) at 9:45 A.M. We'd like to start shooting at 10:00.
We will meet on the East side of the building - the side that faces downtown. This is all happening outside, so please do not try to enter the school. If you need more information or have questions, please call me at 217/816-6297.
After that scene, we will be heading downtown to shoot some additional scenes. If anyone is interested, you are more than welcome to follow us and be extras in those shots as well. Bring a fluffy coat though - 'cause it's gonna be cold!
2) Sounds like a ball. Sorry we aren't closer.dannieFriday, November 14, 2008
3) oh no! I'm gonna be at work.... Sorry Dave.JimTheLimeyFriday, November 14, 2008
4) Dave, I will be there, if you pay my transportation charges and pay me Union Scale Wages for my time. Just joking, if I lived close by I would volunteer for the opportunity, but I probably couldn't do as good a job as Steve and Nancy.BeanCounter37Friday, November 14, 2008
5) While Steve and Nancy are award-winning thespians, we would totally feature you in this movie, Bean. We actually have a couple parts open still: fluffy (a poodle) and a tree.Dave HeinzelFriday, November 14, 2008
6) What you want to, feature the biggest clod that you can find? You would probably to be wanting to feature a Country Bumpkin in this movie, if you wanted to feature me. Good luck with the shooting and break a leg.BeanCounter37Friday, November 14, 2008
7) Someone say shooting?mattpikeFriday, November 14, 2008
8) I'll be there. Save the creepy, chainsmoking, ponytail guy role for me!Denny DeatonFriday, November 14, 2008
9) Good Luck Dave! Wish I could be there.SpikeFriday, November 14, 2008
10) I'll be there, and I'll try to get Mr. Shoo to attend as well.Sarah S.Friday, November 14, 2008
11) Yeah Sarah! You so totally rock. WOO HOO!Dave HeinzelFriday, November 14, 2008
12) Matt for President!!!Friday, November 14, 2008
13) If I were the tree, the poodle would probably give a good watering. At 6'-4", I would probably make a good tree.BeanCounter37Friday, November 14, 2008
14) I will be there with all of you in spirit and hope that your entry wins the competition. Put it up when you because I want to see how Steve and Nancy perform.BeanCounter37Friday, November 14, 2008
15) Ack. I wish I could be there, but I'm on kid duty all morning...and I just got home from poker night. It could be a long day tomorrow. Good luck though!RussSaturday, November 15, 2008
16) As of 12:00 hrs. EST(17:00 GMT), is the movie done?BeanCounter37Saturday, November 15, 2008

18) Thats awesome!
Is there a limit on how many people we can invite?PearlMeiMonday, November 24, 2008
19) No limit. I will try and get in touch with everyone on Wednesday about the plans. I was out of state due to a family emergency, so sorry about the delay. But it's SO on!Dave HeinzelTuesday, November 25, 2008
20) I got the flyers late in the day so I didn't have time to circulate more than a couple. Hopefully I can spread the word on Monday.Ninster23Wednesday, November 26, 2008
