Hollywood East, also known as Plymouth Rock Studios, is starting to provide free acting classes. From the brief parts shown of the latest, it appears that they are preparing people to be extras. The class that their daily video (called what else, "The Series") depicts shows a large crowd being coached on cheering at a football game.
Other information is presented to prepare people for the reality of shooting scenes like, "Ok, now we want you to do that 20 more times, and it is cold and snowing." I think they are smart to prepare a local source of extras. They can train them with a fresh look and can prepare them with the realities of acting in a movie. With a fresh group of faces and a clean slate of trainable masses, they may find working here refreshing.
Nevertheless, movies are going to be made here in Southeastern Massachusetts! The town of Falmouth has already stated permitting certain locations so they will be pre-approved for shoots. They are also working on the permitting process so they have a streamlined system in place for requests as they come in.
Who knows, maybe the Cape will become a new getaway for the west coast Hollywooders.
The next class is scheduled for teh end of March +-.
