AshliBogartSLEEPY HOLLOW CASTING CALL FROM ASHLI BOGART:
WILMINGTON, NC- We are going to be in need of Native American Males 18+up for some scenes in an upcoming episode filming in Wilmington, NC. Looking for great faces with authentic looks. We don’t have a filming date yet, but it will be sometime between July 8-17. We are willing to bring in folks from outside of Wilmington and outside of NC. Production will be providing hotel accommodations for those traveling outside of the Wilmington area. Please email recent photos (if you are comfortable being shirtless please include a photo), contact info, location, height, weight, wardrobe sizes to sleepyhollowextra@gmail.com SUBJECT: NATIVE AMERICANS. If interested please email us and we will have more information in regards to pay rates.

We will have 2 scenes where we will need a handful of men:

FLASHBACK: One scene will be a flashback scene portraying members of a Shawnee tribe. For this scene we will be asking guys to be in traditional attire so must be comfortable with being shirtless. We will ask for guys who do not have tattoos or if you do that they are minimal and can be covered up by makeup. Also looking for a shaman type so an older gentleman with a great character face.

MODERN DAY: We will also have a scene that takes place in modern times and will need a handful of guys to play Native American Bikers, so can be rough and tough and tattoos are ok.

FILM INCENTIVES: Your mission for Monday, June 30, 2014

housnce

Good morning my beautiful North Carolina peeps.  Over the weekend, I was told yet again from those on the inside that what we are doing i.e. making the phone calls and sending emails, is working. BIG TIME. The folks who will decide our fate are feeling the pressure.  So, again I tell you, DO NOT give up.  At this point there is a strong possibility that they will extend the current film incentives for another year, study them carefully and then revisit them in the long session.

IF, and I mean only, IF we keep up the good work we have been doing over the past month.

So, again, PLEASE be polite, and CALL, CALL, CALL.

Today we will be calling The Speaker of the House, Thom Tillis,   Governor Pat McCrory and we will now be putting pressure on Senator Berger.

Let them know you are a voter, let them know your story, and ask them to extend the film incentives AS THEY ARE!
