Our latest addition to the cast is <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1384942/">Nicci Faires</a> who will be playing "Mary".

After two days of production, we have 12 rolls of exposed film and too many scenes to mention in the can. A big shout out goes to Raquel, who allowed us to shoot in her wonderfully awesome flat in Los Feliz...or someplace like that. <br /><br />Hopefully, we'll be able to have a sneak preview online soon. We will be shooting episodes throughout 2010, with more scenes scheduled for next week.

DI was written last year for a few actors I've come to know in recent years. In 2009, Charity Rahmer approached me and mentioned she was searching for a script and the everything began to fall into place. Inspiration for the project came from the actors I knew or saw perform. My goal was to create likable characters they could enjoy playing.</span><span style="font-family:arial;"> Since then, Eileen Grubba has put together a great cast and everyone is excited to work on the show. </span></span><span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;" ><br /><br />The 60-page script is broken down over 8 days consisting of 1st and 2nd unit shooting. Unfortunately, we have to break up the schedule throughout March and April.<br /><br />We also just launched the Death interrupted website, watchdeath.com, and we plan to have footage uploaded soon. Now, if I can only get SAG to return my calls.<br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-family:arial;"> </span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
