Does anyone know where to register to become an extra for all of the upcoming movies being filmed in the D?

Hi Michele,

I ran across a guy in Facebook named Lew Smith who seems to be in the know on that stuff. One of the websites he lists on his FB profile is http://www.michiganmovienetwork.com/. It has his phone number and email address towards the bottom
in the middle of the page.

I also know a Richard Jewell who has as he writes "appeared in over sixteen movies and television shows". I've tried to link to his facebook page above. If you don't get good contact info from this let me know and I'll help you out. I'm not doing any of this yet. I've just run across people who are.

while it probably isn't a big deal, I don't want to post their phone numbers here without their knowledge.


I'm never "lost" cause I always know where "I" am. I just may not know where anything else is or how to get there.

One of the talent agencies doing extras casting for Michigan productions is Real Style,
http://www.realstyleonline.com/extras_casting.html.
Saw their info posted on the Michigan Film and Video Production mail list. I don't know if there are fees involved nor have I seen any "user reviews" of their services.
