A local (Fruitland Park) production company is shooting a historical video
in the old Sumter County Courthouse this Saturday afternoon.
The production company, Imagination Shop, needs extras to
portray jury members and audience members for re-enactments of the 1949
trial. No compensation, but names will appear in credits and everyone
participating will get a DVD of the finished product, which will be marketed
to schools and universities as a way of teaching history and diversity.
Shooting is 1-5 p.m. Men should bring two, short-sleeve buttoned shirts, one
white and one brown, black or dark blue. Women should wear dresses - vintage
era preferably, and bring a sweater, jacket or hat, as they may appear in
different scenes.
Anyone interested should email
