Calling Extras for The Hobbit.

I've read in tonight's news that the call has been put out for extras to be auditioned for The Hobbit.

Essential requirements are:
- Men and Women aged 17-80 years
- Men: MUST be UNDER 170cm (5 foot 7 inches)
- Women: MUST be UNDER 158cm (5 foot 2 inches)
- You MUST be prepared to be available at short notice


It seems that at 176cm tall, I don't qualify. Does anyone have some form of spinal compressing device out there? ... LOL!

I guess that with being part way through the process of buying a house, I have enough on my plate at present.

So, if you fit all the above requirements and live in the central North Island of New Zealand, opportunity could be knocking at your door.

Bride Flight

Hi reader

I've been a bit slack on maintaining this blog in recent times. Whenever something newsworthy happens, I tend to forget about it when I log onto my machine. Sometimes I even forget that this blog exists. Hopefully, I can turn a corner here. It took me a few attempts to suss out my password.

Anyhow, three years ago, I had posted here about being a movie extra for the movie Bride Flight.
The movie was finally released on DVD recently. I didn't get around to seeing it during screening at the cinema. My parents informed me that I do appear a few times as an extra in the movie. I have since watched this myself, and identified myself in nine instances. It's not my taste in movies, but it's also not everyday that my mug shot appears in the background of a movie.
