Elgin Craigslist Listings

May 25th, 2008

I am putting off much needed sleep (woke up at 4:15 am for Bike the Drive!!) to bring you summarized versions of these interesting Elgin craigslist listings:

1) AUDITIONS FOR SHORT HORROR FILM

Males between 22 and 35 and females in their early 20s and 30s can audition for a short horror film entitled “Gargalese” about “a parasitic alien crashed to earth who invades an unfortunate soul and generally causes carnage.” Audition times are Friday, May 23rd 5:00-9:00pm, Sunday, May 18th 1:00-5:00pm, Tuesday, May 27th 6:00-9:00pm.

2) CHICKS, ROOSTER, & QUAIL

Want some Buff Orpingtons, White Rocks, Red stasr, White Leghorns, Black Australorps, assorted Bantams or Blue Marans? Prices start at $2 and the birds range in age from a few days old to a few years. Perfect if you want pets, tasty eggs, or both.

Be in a Johnny Depp movie!

March 25th, 2008

Apparently an upcoming movie is being filmed in Aurora soon and they’re looking for extras. Unfortunately I’m too tall to qualify. Bummer!

Men must be less than 6-foot-2 with a jacket size no larger than 44 and female extras must be shorter than 5-foot-8 with a dress size no larger than 10.

To sign up, call Joan Philo Casting at (312) 924-1840. When you call in a recorded message will prompt you to leave your name, phone number, and make sure to let them know you are calling for the Aurora shoot.
