Got an ’80s Look? This El Paso Film Needs Extras

As we've talked about several times, El Paso has a HUGE love for film making. We love supporting local film makers & we love giving each other chances to be included IN local productions. There's an upcoming project that wants YOU to be featured as an extra.

The El Paso production, Connie Sterling, is looking for extras & here's how you can help

If you have a love for the 80s, and you have clothes you had FROM the 1980's, then you would be perfect for starring as an extra for THIS music video shoot for an upcoming local short film called "Connie Sterling".

Dakota Entertainment/Connie Sterling

When speaking to one of the main writers, Dakota from Dakota Entertainment, (who we've talked to before when discussing his film Bedridden), the story for Connie Sterling takes place in 1984. The movie focuses on a pop singer who finds out that she has an incurable disease & has one final mission: to perform one last show for her adoring fans while fighting with the ghosts of her past. The movie also features songs from Grammy-Nominated Songwriter Ellen Shipley.

The crew is entirely based out of the El Paso/Las Cruces area & will include local actors such as Margaret Rae, Elizabeth Elise Gonzales & Jay Stratton.

So how do you help? Well, YOU can be included for the concert scene as a concert goer. Cheering, singing, dancing, having fun...that's YOUR job as you watch Connie Sterling perform for her loving fans.

Since this is based in 1984, everyone who is interested most come dressed in their 80's look possible. Big hair, ripped jeans, jean jackets, makeup that would make KISS jealous...whatever you have to fit the scene, the better.

There is an Instagram post that contains more information on where the filming will take place & what every person who shows up will receive. One important note: this is an UNPAID acting opportunity, but you WILL be fed & be given an on-screen & IMDB credit (which is more than enough for me!).

Even though I grew up in the 90's, I better bring out the big hair and the tight jeans for this...
