Seeking crew for CLE48Hour Film Project
by Scott Szego via NEohioPAL 22 Sep '15

22 Sep '15

I am an independent filmmaker who is working on the upcoming Cleveland 48 Hour Film Project. During this event we will be making a short horror film in just 48 hours on the weekend of October 16-18. I am currently looking for a few people to join my team. Specifically, I would like to find an editor who has experience editing with Premier, After Effects, and Mocha. Someone who can do double duty as a cinematographer would be ideal. The 48 Hour Film Project requires that we work quickly, so we need someone who will be able to handle this time constraint. The second position that we need to fill is a special effects makeup artist. We need someone who can create special effects such as scars, wounds, and various scary faces. All creative work needs to be done during the weekend of the contest, so we do not know the specifics of our film at this time. It is a fast paced and exciting event. Are you up to the challenge? Reply if you are creative and can work quickly. If you would like more details, please contact me! I welcome all inquiries. Thanks for reading and I’ll be seeing you at the movies!

LAND OF CLEVE REVIEW: The Verdict is In, and 'Night of January 16th' is a Guilty Pleasure at Western Reserve Playhouse
by Cleve Land via NEohioPAL 22 Sep '15

22 Sep '15

* LAND OF CLEVE REVIEW: * The Verdict is In, and *'Night of January 16th' * is a Guilty Pleasure at Western Reserve Playhouse Director Brian Westerley plays up both the controversy and the comedy of the situation, resulting in an entertaining evening at the theatre. He has also cast the show with colorful and quirky character actors who would all be right at home in an episode of "Law and Order." Arresting actress Beth Gaiser leads the ensemble as the woman at the middle of the mystery, commanding attention both on the stand and at the defense table. Meg Hopp and Dan Colaner expertly go head-to-head as rival attorneys, whether they are pleading their case to Tom Stephan or Scott K. Davis, who alternate as unflappable Judge Heath. Elizabeth Allard and David Hundertmark make a lasting impression bring the deceased man's family members, as do the wary, world-weary, and whimsical witnesses including Harriet DeVeto, Sally Suren, Ron Young, David Hess, Barry Wakser, Patrick Wilson, Irv Korman, and Walt Kaminski. Particularly peculiar -- and a lot of fun to watch -- are Marc Dusini as a bumbling bailiff and Kayleigh Joyce as an easily distracted stenographer... *READ THE FULL REVIEW AT:* *http://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2015/09/cleve-review-verdict-is-in-and-night-of.html <http://inthelandofcleve.blogspot.com/2015/09/cleve-review-verdict-is-in-and…>*

Zuppa Theatre of Halifax, Nova Scotia at PHS
by Michael J Geither via NEohioPAL 22 Sep '15

22 Sep '15

Zuppa Theatre of Halifax, Nova Scotia The first guests of the NEOMFA Visiting Writers series will be arriving shortly. Zuppa Theatre of Halifax, NS will be performing The Attaining Gigantick Dimensions, a play created with local playwright Mike Geither at 7:30pm on Friday October 9th & Saturday October 10th in the Helen Theatre at Playhouse Square. Tickets are free for CSU students with an ID. All others are $5. http://www.playhousesquare.org/ The Attaining Gigantick Dimensions follows a military translator as he returns to Halifax from Afghanistan to news of a family crisis. But then ordinary life happens: he revisits old haunts, catches up with family and friends, meets a schoolteacher from Texas and buys a new shirt. Framed by the trauma of large-scale conflict on one side, and personal loss on the other, unremarkable events take on great significance. The Attaining Gigantick Dimensions is a poetic, visually arresting theatrical mediation on life's "spaces in between". https://vimeo.com/127848982
