Boston Movie Extra

Ricky Gervais released even more footage from those great days on the cavemen set for the Karl documentary. Check it out here is the link! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5p5cIyoF9I That was such a great day (even though it was freezeing with hardly any clothes on) it was so worth it! Enjoy! and to my fellow cavemen and to all our TRUTH friends! UGH! UGH! UGH!

To all my fellow cavemen that played in "This side of the Truth", first of all hope you all are doing well. If you might remember other than the actual movie being filmed Ricky was filming a small documentary about his friend Karl. The following video is behind the scenes of those actual days we had worked, it was just shown on the BBC. enjoy it:) UGH! UGH! UGH! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9t4ICzdKqw

In our recent poll as to "what has been your favorite movie set this far? No surprise "This side of the Truth" wins , and I agree with that win fully. Like I had mentioned before in a previous post, it certainly was a great and fun set to work on. To my surprise was that mall cop came in second. (I would personally say "The Proposal") The reason for that was there were a lot of people that did not like that set (Mall Cop), and the negative press it got on treatment. I had worked on that set for 2 days and really saw nothing that wrong, but I guess many did. So once again thank you for placeing your vote and take your attention to the right side of the blog for the latest survey.

I just want to say I just did 3 days on "This side of the Truth" as a caveman. All I can say in doing this for almost 20 years, this by far was the best set I have ever been on. That might be big words but it is the truth. From the casting to the crew to the background we had a hell of a funny time working on this set. There have been other sets that have been pretty friendly but this one takes the cake. Everybody was approachable, the crew and the background got "in my eyes" along extremely well, something you usually don't see that often. The best part was after we wrapped we had an impromtu soccer match it was the crew (including Ricky) vs the cavemen. We lost 1-0 due to a goal from Ricky himself! Simply fantastic, please know great friends were formed and an amazing experience was made that will last in our memories for long time. Cheers Ricky and the crew and to all my fellow cavemen "UGH!, UGH!"

I have to say that lately I have been so impressed by all the current sets that are filming in the State. What is so great is that most of these sets are very upbeat and enjoyable to work on. Productions like "Ghosts", "Proposal", and "Truth" to name a few are really great experience by far. The crews are nice the people are nice,so what else can you ask for when you are working on these 12+ hr sets. The worst thing about this business is when you get comfortable on a particular set, make some great friends and eventually you have to move on. You form some sort of family (not to sound corny)with these people and that makes it pretty special. Currently I have been working on The Proposal this past week and have made friends with some great individuals Jen , Jen, Dominick, Clayton, and my Greek partner in crime Angelo. We have been a team for the past week and a strong one to say the least on this particular scene we have been filming. Sometimes it...

Today I had the experience to work on the new Ricky Gervais "This side of the TRUTH" in Andover. It was a short and nice shooting day under a nice warm sun. What was cool was that I got to meet some of the readers of this blog and was flattered to hear the positive responses. I just want to say a huge thank you that you continue to enjoy this blog. My mission with it, is to infrom you, answer any questions I can possibly help you with, and talk about the goings on in the world of Hollywood East. So I tip my hat to you guys, I wish you all the best of luck and I will see you soon.
