Rochester Movie Makers Christmas Re-Gifting Party
----------------------------
December 28th, 6:30pm is the date of the next Members meeting. This is our annual fundraiser. Bring $10, a gift you got that you do not want or need re-wrapped and come exchange it for another maybe cooler gift. This is always a blast. There will be food and drink. The location is TBD.

RMM Youth Outreach
----------------------------
Bryan Little is leading the RMM Youth Outreach. RMM is working with The Webster Recreation Center on a project involving several youth. They are remaking a rather sterile health video into something with more street cred. For more information on helping with this project, email stan@RochesterMovieMakers.org.

Film Projects You Can Be Involved In:
----------------------------
After is a 9/11 themed feature with a heavy LA based crew shooting on 35 MM film right now. This is a very tight well run set and great experience. They are looking for hands. If you’d like to intern with this 21 day shoot, email Susan Leber at leber2000@yahoo.com. They are also looking for additional hair and makeup support. Enthusiasm and an ability to follow instructions is all that is required. They shoot Sunday – Fridays.

2nd Story Man is an 18-day shoot, 1/4 through 1/23, Mondays through Sundays. Only one night shoot. They need a handful of PAs each day, for all sorts of jobs (traffic control, craft services, transportation, etc.) -- but to share the burden among about 20 PAs. It's unpaid, but for food. Contact (staropoli1@hotmail.com). It's a feature film ("Second-Story Man") directed by Neal Dhand, produced by Discreet Charm Productions, Scott Lancer and Rick Staropoli, in association with Film Orange. This will be a heavy local crew and a great opportunity to meet and know one of Rochester’s finest film making companies.
