Boston Movie Extra

So today I decided to check out My Best Friends Girl that filmed here last year. First of all awesome job NE actors you should be proud of yourselves GREAT JOB :) But as far as the movie goes....well......it's definately a renter, hate to say it but it wasn't that great. The most of my entertainingis to see if I can locate fellow actors that I know and there were many. CONGRATS! So hopefully the next few films coming down the pike won't be as dissapointing: Mall Cop Pink Panther 2 in Feb and Truth and The Box in March

Hello folks it came to my attention that Boston casting is looking for some people to play I believe MIT BG students for the movie the knowing. It is a Nic Cage film but Nic Cage will not be in town because from what I have heard this movie has already wrapped, and these are just addtional scenes. Good luck :)

I was working on E.O.D just recently and here we are in holding for a few hours as usual and here we have someone preaching about which canadate we should choose. Now we all know which one we want to choose and that is our personal opinion, but do not tell us who to vote for. At one point one person yelled from across the room and told this guy to "end it" because this is "not the place for that", I totally agree. Keep that outside, we are here to work and have fun and no one needs that.

Lately we really have not heard anything about the to studios in Weymouth and Plymouth. I know Plymouth was approved, but what about Weymouth? Is it me or has everything gone silent, it's really funny to compare a year ago and now. It's like night and day. Any info that any of you like to share about this subject?

Compared to a year ago where we all had the pick of the litter on movie projects, this year it seems very dry. Sure we have Edge and the just wrapped Don Mckay, but that seems to be it as of now. Could be that other states are giving out bigger tax cuts to Hollywood? could be also. But all we can do is continue and take it one project at a time and see what the future brings.

Today "The Women", next week "My Best Friends Girl", Boston films are slowly appearing on the silver screen. This is an exciting time to be a NE Actor, and folks this is the begining, there are about another dozen or more films that will be on screen from now to mid 2009. So sit down chow on some popcorn and lets salute one another to job well done, we should all be proud. See you at the movies :)

I don't know about you guys but has anyone out there been recieveing e-mails looking for availabilty from Boston Casting and they are telling you to log on to your Agency pro account just to see nothing?! Now I have not paid for this service but I do know one thing, even with a free account like many of us have out there you could see the calander and open events. So my question is did they take out the free option? What happened to just calling us and finding out?

Lately as I am sure we have all noticed there are more and more calls for work especially back ground work. Now I a pretty surprised as to how much demand there is compared to supply, so why is this the case? Could it be the money vs. time on the set? could it be some people have real jobs?, who knows but there is absolutely a shortage. What amazes me even more is there is such an over abundance of actors in this city. In the end there is a lot more openings on these projects. So when you get a call and you can make it please do, because when the demand leaves us, it might not be as rosey.

I know the big heavy hitters are in town (mel and bobby d) but there is also a small inde. Called Don Mckay with Elizabeth Shue and Thomas Church and I know they are looking for people. More projects more work...also Brotherhood in RI

I just got word by one of my readers that there are sites out there that are chargeing people to recieve casting information. THAT IS A SCAM FOLKS! Most of us know that already, but there are some from what I understand are paying crazy money to get basic info that they can get anywhere. So if you know anyone that is about to do this stop them and guide them to plenty of free sites that offer the same thing. Many Thanks Michelle :)
