I'm not sure if you've already heard (if so, just ignore this posting), but 
a film about King Alfred the Great is in the works, to be shot in the Provo 
area (Arrow's Flight, near Loch Salann). I've spoken with the producer and, 
if you can believe it, they are having trouble finding volunteers *gasp!* 
Only about 25 people have spoken with them about parts in the film.

I have included the original casting call below, sent by HL Raven. I can't 
imagine anyone in the SCA not being interested in something like this :-) 
Please, if you can, let them know we support wonderful independent 
historical endeavors like their film!

EveningStar Productions is announcing a casting call
for a production of KING ALFRED THE GREAT (written by
local historian and novelist) to be filmed in the
Provo, American Fork, Alpine Area somewhere around May
or June (depending on weather).

The film takes place in 849ish AD (the anglo-saxon
times). There is a battle scene with the Danes (or
Vikings) vs. King Alfreds men. And we need as many
people as possible! 75-100 people?....we also are
casting actors with previous experiance (but welcome
those without experiance) to audtion for lead roles.
No actors are paid, however there will be food
available.

Costumes are to be of that time period and to the BEST
authenticity. (No Bright reds or pinks or neon
greens....you get the idea) Email me at
dehorta at yahoo.com and let me know your name, age,
interest level (from 1-10, 10 being extremely
interested), contact #, Yes or no I can bring my own
costume and sword, and whether you want to be an extra
(Specify Anglo-Saxon or Dane), or if you want to
audition for the leads. (If you are interested in lead
roles please send picture and some acting highlights
if any).

This film has a GREAT chance of being distributed on
DVD and will be shown in several professional film
festivals across the world!
If you have anymore questions feel free to email me
those aswell.

Gratefully~
