Hollywood Comes to Dignowity!

Ok, maybe it's not really Hollywood but our house became part of independent filmmaker Patsy Whitfield's project.  Patsy and her crew of actors and film technicians spent an afternoon in our house shooting indoor scenes for their short movie "Symphony of Silence".   The movie which is about teenage bullying and its consequences is being shot around different locations in San Antonio.  Our house became part of the movie by pure serendipity. A couple of months ago Patsy made contact with me through email and at one point told me that she was looking for a house to shoot scenes for Symphony of Silence. Well, before long we agreed to offer our house for the movie.

It's a Wrap!

Making movies is hard work, lots of setting up and re-doing scenes but it was a fun watching the the actors and crew doing what they love to do. The film crew will be back next weekend to finish shooting additional scenes. Can't wait to see the finished product. Next stop: Cannes Film Festival!!!
