Graduate of Sullivan County High School is coming home to produce a film on his college Break:

Gary D.Sexton Jr., a film Student at Miami International University of Art and Design Miami Florida, will be coming home to work on a Suspense/Thriller/Action movie based on the Haunted Legions of the woods in Sullivan County. It will be screened by a representative of Lions Gate Films as well as entered into various film festivals. The film will be directed by Gary Sexton and Pablo Cervino from Sarasota, Florida. The story was conceived by Gary Sexton and Richard Cassvan. Production will take place from June 17 until early July.

If you are interested in acting (4 main characters), working as an extra, a crew member, or helping out with makeup then contact Gary Sexton before June 14 at
lpu13g@yahoo.com or Joanne at atrio@epix.net with name, picture and how you are interested in helping.

In addition, this project is seeking equipment including cameras (to borrow or rent), generators, and a rain machine.

Community Film Project is currently seeking volunteer extras (male and female adults) for the upcoming short film titled “Laugh Zombie Riot”—a zombie/comedy that will be filmed in March 2007. This film will have a one-week theatrical run during Summer 2007 at Endless Mountains Theatre in Dickson City. This film is being directed by CFP President Jeff Fowler.

In order to prepare extras for their roles as Laugh Zombies, we will hold two LAUGH ZOMBIE BOOT CAMPS—one at King’s College and one at Marywood University. Please attend one of these sessions at your convenience.

At these boot camps, you will learn:

• the events that turned you into a Laugh Zombie
• how a Laugh Zombie laughs
• how a Laugh Zombie walks
• how a Laugh Zombie interacts with humans, other zombies, and their surroundings
• what motivates and stimulates Laugh Zombies
  

This will be a fun and interactive 60 – 90 minute session. It’s a nice opportunity to come out and meet some other CFP members and have a good time. In addition, we will discuss costuming, makeup, and the specific zombie scenes. Finally, you will sign a talent release, on which you will indicate how your name will appear in the closing credits.

Please note that we need a diverse group of zombies—males and females age 18 and over preferred. You can be a pretty petite woman or a big bulky mean looking guy—or anywhere in between.
