Film shoot for Boomtown, Pt. 2-- audience extras

BOOMTOWN is a 2-part docudrama movie inspired by the book From the Brink to Brilliant by Kate McDermott. Part 1 is complete. Part 2 is currently in production by Big Picture Media.

For this scene, talented popular live bands and music artists will each perform a couple original songs to shoot live concert footage, and we want to pack our stands! (If you've been to a show at Sky Stage before, you know the vibe will be as awesome as the music!)

Performers include trip-hop duo BIKES, electro-funk artist Daryltron, bedroom pop/neo-soul goddess Nan-Ana, emerging alt-rockers Mancala, and possibly other special guest musicians.

About the film: A small community on the brink of economic devastation—rises up to become one of the most sought after towns in America.

On Oct. 9, 1976, a devastating flood wreaked havoc on Frederick County, destroying invaluable historical film, priceless photography, and other significant media archives that were stored in the basement of the Frederick County Chamber of Commerce. The flood not only destroyed a lot of the town history—but almost broke the spirit of those who lived and worked there.

Downtown Frederick would ultimately survive—thanks to a few brave businesses, a dedicated group of volunteers, some great leadership … and a handful of Rebels.

It would be these Rebels and their extraordinary vision that would turn tragedy into an economic engine.

This is their story to save the Downtown … the account that was almost lost.
