Movie making buzz is building in Prince Rupert as the production team from an upcoming feature sets up shop in the city |
The arrival of the production team for what will be a feature film to be crafted on the North Coast has put parents to picking out their finest outfits for their youngsters, while the strong core of Prince Rupert theatrical talent gives some thought to joining in on the production in whatever role they may be assigned.
The Production Company Flicker Theory Incorporated is set to start production on The Island Between Tides and the buzz has been building through social media this week as the film makers prepare to set up the lighting and get the cameras rolling.
The green light for the project came last year when The Island Between Tides received grant funding from Telefilm Canada, one of 29 English and French films to benefit from a share of the Film Agency funding of over 12 million dollars.
In December the Production team made their first trip to Prince Rupert hosting auditions for the film and this week they have returned, ready to host three days of Meet and Greet's at the Highliner Inn to finish off their casting and behind the scenes production requirements.

You can follow some of the progress for the project through Social media, with the Famous Red Car Facebook page and twitter feed having noted of the previous work on the project in the city.
Their Social media streams also provide a filmography of sorts towards some of their past projects.
