Headshot and Resume are great. But we will take your picture in case you don't have one.

THIS is a NON-PAYING gig. We will feed you well and give you a copy of the DVD for your reel. Very good production value.

Shooting dates are November 19-20-21/ December 2-3-4. LIAM GARCIA will be needed on all or most of those days. Other characters are secondary and will have 1 to 3 days of shooting.
