"Wish Maker" Music Video

Many of the actors who contributed their talents to Season 1 have asked about the timeline for shooting the music video. As a quick reminder, "Wish Maker" is the original song I wrote for the Episode 10 hip hop duet, Green Starr. The song has a sung chorus and rapped verses and was performed in the episode by professional actors Meg McLynn and Angela DiMarco with a little help from Maxo for the last rapped verse ;)

The song will become the series theme music for Season 2, replacing the song we purchased that plays during the opening title sequence and ending credits in Season 1 episodes.

We've also decided to use the music video as the Production Trailer for Season 2. Production Trailers are of vital importance to a production because they are the tool that producers use to secure funding for a project. As you all remember, the goal is for Season 2 cast and crew to be paid. That means the Season 2 producer needs to raise not just the funds that all of us have been raising together for Season 1 that covers props, foods, permits and transportation, but all the salaries as well. The Season 2 producer will need all the help we can give him or her and we think "Wish Maker" would be the perfect heart to any producer's pitch package.

This being the case, we'll be casting only actors coming back for Season 2 for the music video and we will be holding serious auditions for the various roles. Some Season 2 actors will appear in the video acting out scenes from the forthcoming season while others will be singing or rapping. If you are interested in auditioning for the music video, please email me at blueforgeproductions@gmail.com with the words "Music Video Audition" in the subject field. Be careful ;) Don't email the standard "Ghost Sniffers" email address. This message needs to go to the production company because it involves a new audition.

I look forward to working with many of you again!
