A Call for Extras.
A combined force from the Angola Renaissance Faire and the creators of the game Archery Tag (archerytag.com/) are going to be shooting a promo video on June 9th up at Snow Lake (about 45 min north of Ft. Wayne). The location will be Laralyn Castle (www.dupontcastle.com/castles/laralyn.htm).
It sounds like they will be shooting all day, but the majority of extras will only be needed for a couple of hours. It sounds like they will be doing an anachronistic mix of pirates attacking a viking/dark age European castle. They will be wanting a goodly amount of extras for a few shots of the attacking horde, the sally forth of the defenders into the attackers, and a handful of extras to man the walls.
Anyone with pirate or viking garb, or even a common tunic, would be appreciated. Bits of leather and/or chainmail armor could also help make the scene. Real/replica weapons/shields can be brought and may be used as personal props pending the okay of the directors.
Specifics on time needed will be forth coming. The castle is a pretty neat structure. I'd believe some light refreshments will be provided (I'd probably pack a sandwich though). I'd also pack a bathing suit, as we'll probably be granted access to the dock and 50 yards of sandy bottom lake just out from the castle (provided they don't need shots from that side of the structure.
Let me know if you are interested, as we'll probably need to carpool. Parking is limited. As it was explained to me, Dagorhir and the chapters that help out will be included in the credits and as a combo promotional video (mainly featuring the Archery Tag gear) we should get a copy and the rights to spread it about as we see fit.
