Fashion Show

On Sunday, 4/15, we wrapped our first location! After five fantastic days, we are all through shooting at the beautiful Monsoon Cafe on the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica. A HUGE THANK YOU to Maria, our location manager for showing up early every day and to Orion, Monsoon's General Manager. Thank you also to the entire staff at Monsoon who made our production there pleasant and smooth. With the lounge scene behind us, the final two locations should be a breeze *wink wink* We will be working primarily with the talented Katrina Lenk, Rod Ives, and Jay Wallace -- a pleasure to be sure!

Saturday, April 21, we will be shooting the Paul Mitchell School's Fashion Show at the Cao Institute of Aesthetics in Alhambra, CA. It is the brilliant talent from Cao who make our actors too beautiful to be real on the set of Elan Vital. We are excited to be a part of their fashion show that will raise money for three different charitable organizations. Hope to see you there!

Elan Vital

Elan Vital is coming along fantastically! The actors are really beginning to embody their roles in rehearsal. Our first round of auditions was a huge success as several brilliantly talented and experienced actors tried out for key roles in the film. A warm WELCOME to Sarah Springer, Elan Vital's costume designer. Her talent and ideas are adding a very special element to the film that is a rare gem in this industry. Art Director, Robyn Gorgos and Set Builder, Schuu Santos are providing excellent creative insight and craftsmanship to the production. We are also working very closely with the Cao Institute of Aesthetics, a Paul Mitchell affiliate. Their team of artful and innovative stylists and makeup artists is an invaluable asset to this film and essential to the realization of Jason's vision for the characters. At Mutiny Universe, we are all thrilled to be working with such a wonderful group of people and look forward to production!
