We would love for any members of your society to be involved.<br>\nIn order to portray the scene effectively we need extras men and women of all<br>\nages.<\/p>\n<p>This is a low budget feature film, so unfortunately we will not be able to pay<br>\nour extras, <em>but<\/em> each person will receive a film credit and there will be<br>\nrefreshments provided. The filming will take place just off the M5 Junction 2.<\/p>\n<p>The date of filming is Thursday 9th August \u2013 full details will be provided<br>\nas soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>We also are doing a small bit of filming on Sunday August 12th at the same place in<br>\ncase the weekend is better for other people.<\/p>\n<p>If anyone would be interested in doing something a bit different this summer,<br>\nand join us in the production of this film, please contact me for the details<br>\nbelow.<\/p>\n<p>Best Wishes,<\/p>\n<p>Nigel Martin Davey \u2013 Co-Producer<br>\nMobile: 07713 341 349<br>\n<a href=\"info@majoroakentertainment.com\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\">info@majoroakentertainment.com<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There you have it.
