Rescue | The Behavior Change Agency

Tammy Thompson of Thompson Productions is in need of several dependable extras for the Christian movie, “The Beauty of Forgiveness.”

You do not have to be a Christian to be an extra, but you must dress modestly for the scene filmed in the church.

Filming details:
The date of filming is Saturday, March 4th. Extras will need to be on time and arrive at 5:30 PM. Filming will start shortly after sunset at 6:00 PM, and the scene will be filmed until complete. It could be 2-4 hours. Extras will need to commit to remaining for the whole time.

The filming will take place at a Church in Westminster, Maryland (the address will be emailed to you with the actor release form)

Extra acting details:
– The extras will be seated as an audience attending the book launch of the pastor’s wife in the movie. The role of the extras is to be engaged in her speech.
– There is no childcare at the church during filming; only those accepted with a signed contract can be on set.
– There is no room for observers while filming. Phones will need to be off during the filming time. Extras are to wear plain, solid clothing and not busy distracting prints, as the scene focuses on the pastor’s wife and her book launch. Do not wear red, as the book is the only red thing in the movie. Do not wear facial masks or any clothing/items that would be seen as from a non-Christian faith.
– The parts are unpaid, but the extras will explicitly receive; a copy of the finished movie, their name listed in the movie credits, and an invitation to the private viewing.
