While Michigan may not be the prime area to make movies, the number of crews coming to the state has rapidly grown since 2007.

“It became a prime area when the Michigan Film Incentive was passed,” “Trust” Locations Assistant Brian D. Flynn said. “However, Michigan is still not the prime location for filming. New York and California still hold those spots.”

The biggest reason for Michigan’s growing film industry, Flynn said, came when Gov. Jennifer Granholm passed the Michigan Film Incentive on April 8, 2008. The bill was created in with the hope of improving the Michigan economy by bringing more people to the state and opening up alternate jobs for the unemployed.

“We’re known to have perhaps the most aggressive incentives in the country,” Communications Manager of the Michigan Film Office Ken Droz said. “That gets us in the door, to producers evaluating where to shoot, as it’ll be cost effective.

The incentive is the best in the nation, according to the Michigan Film Office. It offers up to a 40 percent refundable tax credit on Michigan expenditures if the filming company spends at least $50,000 in the state.

An additional 2 percent can be claimed if filming takes place in at least one of the 103 Core Communities set up by the state’s Economic Development Corporation, including Ann Arbor.

Film makers, television producers and video game companies can all take advantage of this offer.

The second reason Flynn attributes to the growing film industry is Michigan’s ability to be used for a wide range of settings.

“Michigan’s diverse topography provides almost endless possibilities for sets,” Flynn said. “We have forests, plains, hills, lakes, rivers. “We can even do ocean scenes, thanks to the Great Lakes. The only thing we don’t have are mountains, and those can be faked.”

Droz agreed, saying the proximity to various locations also helps.

“We also have a really deep and varied base of locations from which they can shoot. All within a narrow area too, not far from Detroit’s Metro Airport,” Droz said.

In addition, Flynn said Michigan is also to grow as long as the incentive remains intact and untouched. diverse and plentiful in its infrastructure.

“Unfortunately, if the film incentive “We have a wide variety of cityscapes as well, particularly in southeast Michigan, is cut or capped any time soon, the film allowing for rural scenes, suburban scenes industry in Michigan will shrivel up before and urban scenes to all be shot relatively it can build real staying power,” Flynn said.

That being said, close to each other,” Flynn is optimistic Flynn said. about the near Droz said Hollywood finds We’re known to have future.

“I’m not saying Michigan as a new, perhaps the most who I expect to work intriguing area to film. aggressive incentives in with in 2010,” he “The architecture the country.” said. “But I will say and history and that I expect it to be character of a lot of these places is what is

-Ken Droz, a very big year.

Droz also absolutely enthralling Communications Manager of remains optimistic filmmakers,” Droz said. the Michigan Film Office about the progress “It’s a great thing to of Michigan’s see.”

Furthermore, the weather provides film industry, about improving the infilmmakers with vast options occurring state economy, and about the future of in a short period of time. The distinct, filmmaking.

“We’ve had a total of 82 projects filming different seasons makes for many options, here in only 19 months since the legislation Flynn said.

The last reason for film making passed,” he said. “And a combined total of companies travels to Michigan, Flynn filming expenditures in-state of over $340 said, is the low cost of million.”

“We don’t predict,” Droz said, “but living in the state. Low costs means that film have high hopes and optimism that the state can sustain itself for many budgets can stretch years, as Hollywood increasingly discovers all that the state has to offer, besides the incentives itself. So far, the feedback we’ve been getting really is very strong and approving.”

“

e v e n further, he said.

Flynn s a i d Michigan is continually working to make the state even more attractive for filmmakers across the country.

“Once we have studios and sound stages in Michigan, the incentive could be amended without serious damage to our film industry,” Flynn said. “One studio has already been finished and should start operations soon.

More are planned to come.”

Flynn said the number of movies being shot in Michigan will continue

About 200 people were extras in “Trust”. But not all of them did the same things.

Some participated in a scene shot in the lunch room that required extras to sit at the other tables and converse to create a school environment.

Some had to take fake tests and sit in a classroom for a scene to represent the high school environment.

However, these actors were not Hollywood stars. They were, instead, area students, many of whom came

“I was an extra for the volleyball scene,” Click said. “I applied to be an extra for other scenes, but I wasn’t selected.”

So for the volleyball scene, Click said he was told to do what Dexter students do best, chee.

“They had us sit there and cheer.

Sometimes we would cheer silently which was a weird experience,” he said.

Being an extra has a lot of perks too, Click said.

Since f ilming for the mov ie “Trust” occurred during and af ter school hours, mov ie crews f illed the halls, while lights were set up and thick cords ran through the hallways and staircases.

Some students were chosen to be extras in the mov ie and were pulled out of classes for the day so they could take par t in the mov ie.

For those who weren’t chosen as extras, there was an oppor tunit y to take par t in the volleyball scene shot af ter school on a Friday, where many students played fans for the game, which featured the Dexter and Huron High School volleyball teams.

However, students were not the only ones af fected by the f ilming.

Principal K it Moran and Dean of Students Ken Koenig had to plan out the days’ schedules and make sure students cooperated, while

at the same time keeping the mov ie’s directors and producers happy.

“It’s as if you were play ing a basketball game while at the same time a football game was going on,” Moran said.

With 1200 students and 100 staf f members, DHS is already pushing capacit y, and an added element of a mov ie crew and cast could have been stressf ul.

But Moran said there were no major problems bet ween the mov ie’s crew and the school day.

“The biggest inconveniences were relocating the teachers in classrooms that were used to f ilm during the day,” Moran said.

The last day of f ilming was on Friday and the crew was in the g y m and locker rooms, and the g y m classes had to be moved out of the g y m in order for the f ilming.

“They f ilmed 45-46 hours during their time here, and most of which was during the school day,” Moran said. “The

crew was ver y impressed the students weren’t starstruck and asking for pictures or autographs. They loved us.”

Moran also said the crew was so impressed they may want to come back and f ilm more at the school.

“We were f lexible, and we made the changes we could,” Moran said. “The mov ie crew liked that.”

For Dean of Students Ken Koenig, the most dif f icult par t of the process was the preparation before the crew arrived.

“We had to have teachers out of classrooms that were in a scene,” Keonig said. “It wasn’t too hard once they were here.”

Koenig also said the mov ie crew was stunned at how well-behaved the students were.

“It was a cool experience that I never got to have in high school,” Koenig said.

“Even if students didn’t want the mov ie here, they can look back on it and say that a mov ie was f ilmed at their school.”

Owen,” he said. “He made eye contact and waved at me. It was the greatest moment of my life.”

But the six-hour experience was exhausting and even though he didn’t get to meet director David Schwimmer, Click said overall his first experience was fun and quite strenuous.

“My back felt like it was going to snap from sitting on the bleachers for so long,” he said.

So although Click’s back hurt, and he didn’t get paid, he said being an extra was truly something special.

He said, “This was a great experience for my senior year, and I will remember it for my whole life.

It was fun, and it’s not every day I get to be on the big screen.”

Hollywood invades Dexter High School, take two Kaitlyn Shepard

features editor

For the second time this year Dexter High School has been taken over by Hollywood.

Filming for the new David Schwimmer movie “Trust” began on Tuesday, Nov. 10 and went through Friday, Nov. 13.

According to the movie’s producer, Heidi Jo Markel, the movie is about a typical American family and how they deal with the repercussions after their daughter is targeted by an on-line predator. The daughter Annie, played by Liana Liberato, develops a relationship with a boy whom she believes to be her own age. However, he turns out to be much older.

“She’s just a freshman in high school who wants to fit in like every other pretty girl. She didn’t realize what she was getting into,” Markel said. “It’s about the family healing after this tragedy.”

For the movie’s director, David Schwimmer, the topic is a personal one stemming from his involvement with the Rape Treatment Center in Santa Monica, CA. “I’ve been involved with the rape foundation for the last 10 or 12 years,” Schwimmer said. “(The story) came out of some of the cases I’ve heard that dealt with rape and online predators.”

Markel said she hopes the movie will start a conversation between parents and their children.

“Right after I read the script, I sat down with my 9-year-old daughter and talked to her about the Internet,” Markel said. “We hope we can provoke discussion in families.

(The film) has a really important message for everyone. It’s not just a teen issue.

Feature films have a strong influence.

When they can make a difference, that’s even better than entertaining.”

While parents and students involved in making the film await the release, many are marveling at the fact that part of this movie was filmed on location at Dexter High School.

The decision to make this film in Michigan was because of the Michigan Film Incentive, Markel said. According to the Michigan Film Office, the incentive, officially called the Film Production Credit, offers up to a 42 percent refundable tax credit for expenses occurred while filming Photo by Brittany Martini

in Michigan.

The goal of the incentive, according to the MFO, is to develop the film industry in Michigan and create new jobs. Shannon DeWolf, a Second Camera Assistant on “Trust,” said the incentive has had big effects in the film industry.

“Not only does (the incentive) help Michigan residents, it helps non-Michigan residents too,” DeWolf said. “When all of the Michigan people are busy people, they call in people like me and Peter (Kuttener, first camera assistant) from Illinois to fill the positions, so we get more work too.”

DeWolf said the incentive also helps Michigan’s economy because of the money the cast and crew spend while they are here.

“We make money while we work here,” DeWolf said. “Then we go out for drinks after work, or we just go buy things and spend the money we made in Michigan, in Michigan.”

While the decision to film in Michigan was an easy choice, the arrangement to film in Dexter took a lot of research, according to Markel. She said Locations Manger Connie Johnson researched schools in the area and then contacted Principal Kit Moran to see more of the school.

After seeing the school, Schwimmer said he fell in love with it.

“It feels like a modern high school that could be anywhere,” Schwimmer said. “It has a very cinematic layout that makes it great for filming. When I saw the gym, I fell in love with it. It was spectacular especially because so much of the movie takes place in the gym.”

Schwimmer said the general energy of the school, among other reasons, was why he picked it.

“This school has a great vibe,” Schwimmer said. “Also, Kit (Moran) rocks. He has been so helpful through the whole process.”

With the movie being filmed at the high school, various students got opportunities to be extras. For many students this was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Senior Elizabeth Reynolds said all she had to do to be an extra was fill out an application.

“One of my friends told me they were looking for extras so I got an application and turned it into the office,” Reynolds

said. “They sent me a few e-mails before they told me I had been selected, and then they told me what day to come to set.”

According to Reynolds, the opportunity to be an extra provided her with a better insight into the movie industry.

“I always used to watch the behind-thescenes of movies when they were put on DVD, and I thought it would be really cool to be a part of it,” she said. “When I found out they were taking extras from the high school, I knew I wanted to be one.”

Reynolds said she was most surprised about how much work and planning goes into a movie.

“When I used to watch a movie, I thought the people were just walking around naturally,” Reynolds said. “After working on the set, I realized how much work and planning went into the people in the background. I also realized how tiring it was and how long it took to film a single scene.”

Students from neighboring schools were also brought in to be extras in the movie. Freshman Khalil Huffman from Advance Tech Academy in Dearborn was one of these extras. Huffman ended up being chosen to play Chris in a lunchroom scene with Liberato.

“It’s been really cool,” Huffman said.

“I’ve liked getting to know a new high school. You also get to do a lot of cool stuff even though you have to be quite a lot of the time.”

Liberato, who has appeared in episodes of “CSI: Miami” and “House”, said she was also excited about the chance to work at DHS. “I’m normally home schooled, so when I found out I was going to get to film at a real high school I got really excited,” Liberato said. “At first I was really afraid that (students) would be really rude to me, but everyone has been so cool and nice.”

Glan Trotiner, Assistant Director of “Trust”, hopes having students see a movie being filmed will help them realize how plausible working in the movie industry is.

“I encourage all the students who want to go into film to follow their dreams,” Trotiner said. “If I can do it, you can do it.”

Locations Assistant Brian Flynn, a University of Michigan graduate, said while getting into the movie industry is difficult, it is worth the effort.

“Unless you know someone, you have to work for free for awhile which can be difficult especially if you have rent to pay,” Flynn said. “However, it is a great industry to get into. I only have to compete with seven other people for my job (in Michigan). If I went to LA, though, I would have to compete with maybe 200 other people.”

Working in the film industry is just like any other job, Flynn said.

“Ninety percent of the time my job is just like any other job,” he said. “The other 10 percent of the time, though, my job is totally awesome. I get to do things you wouldn’t get to do at other jobs, like see a house blown up.”

Although filming during normal school hours was difficult, the process of filming the movie was a pleasant one, according to Trotiner.

“I think we’ve gotten in each other’s way a little bit with passing time and regular school events,” Trotiner said. “I love the principal Kit (Moran). He’s been a great guy. All the students have been very respectful and nice to work with too.”

Schwimmer agrees and said that working with students was a good experience for both the film crew and the students.

“It’s been great,” Schwimmer said.

“Everyone has been really respectful and cool. The students have been very polite yet excited. It’s been a good experience getting to work here.”

According to Flynn, because of the Michigan Film Incentive, Michigan can expect to have more movies coming to film here as long as the incentive remains.

“There are a lot of movies coming, especially in 2010,” he said. “As long as the incentive is there, the movies will continue to come. However, as soon as the incentive is gone, so are the movies.”

Flynn said part of “Spiderman 4”, coming out in May, 2011, may be filmed in Michigan.

And not only can Michigan expect to have more movies coming, Dexter High School may also have more movies coming to film here.

“Some of the producers said before they left, ‘We’ll be back,’” Moran said.

“They really like Dexter, and they love (the students).”

David Schwimmer’s path of success “Nothing But the Truth” Schwimmer plays Ray Armstrong, the brother of Rachel Armstrong, a reporter who writes a story about how the President ignored a CIA agent’s request for an air strike against Venezuela. The reporter names the agent in the story, and the government moves quickly to arrest Rachel and attempt to force her to reveal her source. When she refuses, her life, and the life of the agent she named in the story become madly chaotic. It’s a national security vs. First Amendment battle.

“Friends” Schwimmer plays Ross Geller, witty paleontologist from New York. The sitcom is about the lives of a group of six young friends who live in apartments near each other in New York City.

Not every one needs to be a big Hollywood star to be in a movie. Local resident Ken Mitchell is an example of this.

Mitchell is among many Michigan residents who has been affected by the decline in the automotive industry.

He was in the Air Force for eight years, and he went to college to earn his degree in business.

He worked for a staffing business after college. When that didn’t work out, Mitchell said he needed something to help him fill his days, which led him to try working as an extra in Michigan’s growing film industry.

jobs due to the slump in the state’s economy, the film industry in Michigan has given people who have been laid off in fileds like the automotive industry a chance to get back on their feet and collect a form of income.

Mitchell said, “(Work as an extra] pays pretty good money, and it helps fill out the day.”

He also says that working on a movie set is exciting, interesting, and even at times a little boring.

Besides “Trust,” Mitchell has been in quite a few Michigan-based movies including “Alleged” filmed in Flint.

“I would (work as an extra) every day if I could.” Mitchell said. “It pays about $100 a day. Any one who’s interested, should register and go for it.”

Movie buzz affects students Thomas Griffith

Senior Megan Schlanderer left school on Nov. 10 with her backpack filled with homework and wallet packed with cash.

Schlanderer was chosen to be an extra in “Trust” and not only got to appear in the movie but also received a check of $80 dollars for her work on set.

Extras made $7.40 an hour and $8 for overtime. “It was really cool to see how a movie was made,” Schlanderer said.

“But it was a very long day. There was a lot of sitting around when we weren’t on the set.”

The movie didn’t benefit everyone, though. “I ended up

being late to work due to the traffic in front of the school for the movie,” senior Kyle Slavik said after reporting to his job at Meijer late for his shift. “Thankfully it wasn’t enough to get me fired, but it was late enough where I got yelled at.”

When the film crews arrived on Tuesday, many students were excited, but as the week went on some became irritated with the constant film crew equipment clogging up the hallways and making them late to class. The fact that they missed the whole day of school also backfired for most students who were slammed with homework after a long day of school.

“It was really annoying with all the cords laying around the hallways along with the huge carts of filming equipment,” Slavik said.

Still some students got to meet celebrities such as director David Schwimmer and actor Brandon Molale. Schwimmer is best known for the TV series “Friends”. Molale has appeared in several blockbusters such as “Mr. Deeds”, “Dodgeball” and “Longest Yard”.

Senior Kory Musolf got an opportunity to meet Molale briefly during third hour Individual Team Sports. “He was a really cool and nice guy,” Musolf said. “I expected all actors to be jerks and especially not come to talk to some kids. He even offered to play dodgeball with us which was awesome.”

And some students got a first-hand experience of how the the making of a movie takes place and the dedication actors need to be successful at their profession. Schlanderer said, “This is something I will able to tell my kids when I get older. I definitely won’t ever forget about for a long time.”

Teachers cope with filming Steve Ferguson

staff writer

During the filming of the movie “Trust,” some teachers had to move their classrooms while the film crew occupied them, causing some major and minor inconveniences.

One teacher who was affected by the filming was French teacher Amy Olmstead.

“I have fifth hour planning, and they didn’t begin filming until the afternoon,” Olmstead said. “I just had to plan in advance to be sure I had everything I needed.”

With some students missing class to be an extra, most teachers did not have to rearrange their class schedules because of students missing class. “However, I proceeded as normal. Students knew they were responsible for catching up,” science teacher Jeff Dagg said.

Math teacher Kathy Day agreed students were responsible to catch up on what they missed during filming. She said, “When they miss my class, they let me know, and they make arrangements to learn the material missed. I think it distracted a few students, but, on the other hand, it also rejuvenated a group of students which was needed before

the change in the trimester,” Day said.

While some students were extras, they not only missed out on class, they missed out on some lessons which could have helped them on an upcoming test.

“I think that some of the extras missed out on some lessons, and therefore struggled on the test of that unit,” P.E. teacher Angie Scott said.

Olmstead, however, said, “The timing wasn’t great being at the end of the trimester, but other than having to deal with make up work for absent students, things went pretty smoothly.”

Although teachers had to move, some were offered a part in the movie as an extra. “I accepted because I thought that it would be a fun experience,” Scott said.

Likewise P.E. teacher Michael McHugh was asked to participate in being in a fake predator book. His picture will appear in the book that the main character in the movie will be looking through.

He said, “I got an e-mail from Principal Kit Moran asking for staff members to be involved and thought it would be interesting to possibly be part of the movie.”

To do and not to do around David Schwimmer on the movie set ...

by Ian McCarthy

Do 1. Ask him if Jennifer Aniston is as attractive in person as she is on TV. 2. Give him complete access to the school.

Our education comes second to a B movie.

3. Be an extra in the movie. You may only get one shot at your 15 seconds of fame. Plus they pay well.

4. Pretend you are an actor with the movie and ask Schwimmer for suggestions on how you should approach your role.

5. Call him Ross.

Don’t 1. Ask him what he has been in since “Friends.”

2. Even whisper within 137 feet of a rolling comera. Papa Schwim and his army of minions will get you.

3. Try to walk to class your normal route. The thousands of wires are not only an explosion waiting to happen, but you will probably trip on them several times.

4. Touch the lights. They are so hot they willliterally melt your face off.

5. Fight Schwimmer to get to the lunch room to eat. He has Clive Owen and Blazer on his side.
