Hey hey, I'm doing a call for extras to be in our club/dance/bar scenes for our third episode of 35th Street Mission. I don't care if you're covered in hair and three feet tall, we'll have ya - and if you can dance AT ALL, lemme know, we need dancers. We're shooting at the new Timberline down near REI on the 6th, 7th and 8th starting at 6:30pm each ( Read more... )

As science and technology evolve they bring us closer to our genesis, going into the smallest systems of what make us human and form our societies.

I've got a position on a crew shooting a sit-com now. I'll be sound director until I'm told that I'm not. It's possible that I'll have someone work under me as a boom op. and I'll get to tell all the little bitch ass PA's to go fuck themselves with a mic stand because I want to watch and I'm their boss. Of course if I really were into that kind of ( Read more... )

Two news stories from the past month offer a window into the bizarre inconsistencies of human empathy.
