Information for extras!!!

EXTRAS ARE SUPER-DUPER IMPORTANT -- do not underestimate your power in this film!
this movie cannot happen without you!!! *sharon arteaga - the director

We need at least 40 extras on Thursday March 19 and about 30 on friday march 20.

All shooting will be done by 6pm both days; so we need you before then.
- i will post a more specific time during the week.

Lunch and refreshments will be provided. & I will give free hugs to all who request it.

Know that:
a) you will have some waiting around
b) you will wear church attire - just pretend you are going to an actual service
c) you will need to raise your hands as if you were worshipping - everyone will be doing this except our lead actress
d) one part requires you to hold your position as if you are a statue
