  • NUDE EXTRAS

    Wednesday, Oct 3, 2007 6:22AM / Members only

    Finding friends and friends of friends to be extras in your big crowd scenes
    is one way to save money on an indie film shoot.  But when you are looking
    for your extras to disrobe that can be another story!

    In FTG, Cole Kim finds himself on the set of a porn shoot.  We needed to
    find men and women who were comfortable being nude for the scene.  The day
    before the shoot our extras casting team had lined up 5 guys and 8 women.
    At 11pm that night the number of women had dropped to 5 and then by our
    early morning call 0.  The guys all showed up but the women all changed
    their minds for various reasons.
    How can we shoot a scene on a porn set with out nude extras?

    Here is the video about that stressful day!

    ***

    Lesson learned that day:  For nude scenes go with professionals!
  • A Day in My Life Part 1

    Saturday, Sep 29, 2007 1:19PM / Members only

    Last night's screening of FTG at the Silver Spring AFI theater was a huge success.  People enjoyed the film and laughter filled the theater.  There were lots of great questions for us about our journey.  Thanks DCAPA film festival for taking such good care of us while in DC.  And on a special note: Christian's U-turn skills were impressive.

     

    On Friday, I had a lovely day hanging out with my sister Cathy and Donovan. The weather was perfect.  I had a few free hours and made my way to the National Gallery to see the Edward Hopper exhibit. Love his paintings!  One of the best things about DC is getting into museums for FREE! Gotta love that.

     

    In the afternoon, Joshua from the film festival picked Sung, Cathy and I up from our hotel to take us to Georgetown.  We were excited to see so many students on a Friday nite at our presentation.  I was also happy to recruit 5 students from GU to volunteer to come up to New York next weekend to wear the yellow jumpsuits!  Yea GU! Thanks Kevin for organizing the event.  We are looking forward to seeing lots of Hoyas at the IFC Center next weekend.

    Hi,
    I just wanted to say that you are an inspiration to many women. If they are thinking of a career in any industry they can look to women like you for incentive to aspire for their dreams. The movie FTG was funny. Maybe you could share some information on past projects you have been involved with as well as any future endeavors. Thanks, an take care. You Rock!

    Hi, Julie. It was great meeting you in New York. Great work on FTG--it's great to see a film that makes people laugh and think. And thanks for explaining the porn scene BTS video a little better for us. I'm not a porn fan, but the way it was handled in the movie made some cogent points about Hollywood. I'll send you a link to my article when it goes online. Best wishes for the rest of the tour, and let me know if I can do anything else to help. Elena Stevenson, screenwriter
