Tampa filmmakers Pete and Paul Guzzo (the Ghosts of Ybor series) are working on a movie titled Caged Dreams, a drama set in the rough-and-tumble world of mixed martial arts. They're looking for a few hundred extras to fill seats as fight spectators.

There isn't any pay -- hey, this is indie filmmaking, you know -- but food and entertainment are promised during breaks in action.

Extras are needed on Oct. 17, all day or partial day, depending on what the Guzzos need. First ones to get there have the best chance of sitting in the front row for maximum screen exposure.

You'll go to Heights of Tampa,
1978 Ola Avenue in
Tampa.
You'll be asked to sign releases prior to driving on the set. No one under the age of 18 will be permitted on set.

The schedule says 10 a.m. but the Guzzos urge everyone to arrive early. Filming won't start right away, but if you want to get a seat and have the chance to be on camera you must check in early

Wardrobe: is simple; anything you will be too hot or uncomfortable wearing

Contact the Guzzo brothers at xfc.cageddreams@gmail.com for complete details.
