I went for the casting just this last Saturday and they let me park inside the gate. Hope to get the job, I really could use the $70 (paid daily).
Don't worry, I won't forget all of you if I get discovered and become a star.

That's good they let you park on the studio grounds. I think a lot of old white guys like me told them "no thanks" at parking on the street and
simply drove off. I also decided this white guy doesn't really want to stand in the sun wearing a 1940's four piece zoot suit all day. Movies aren't
filmed in the shade and August is the hottest month here. Have fun those who are doing it though and stay away from the donut table!

Yes, THAT Kevin James Has Been Cast In The Drama ‘Little Boy’
http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-news/yes-that-kevi...
August 5, 2011
by Wookie Johnson
Is the world ready for Kevin James the actor? The Zookeeper is going to play a role that doesn’t require him to lose his balance for a change of pace.
James will appear in Little Boy, an indie drama centering around a troubled boy who is left alone when his father heads off to World War II. Awww,
c’mon, Kevin. Show the kid a tumble to cheer him up. There’s a rope swing right over there.
The film will star newcomer Jakob Salvati as well as Emily Watson, Ben Chaplin, and David Henrie. Director Alejandro Monteverde conducted a nationwide
casting search before discovering Salvati. Little Boy begins filming at the end of August in Baja, California where James is told they have really,
really good tacos. But seriously, are we ready to see James in non-marooonic fare? Would be pretty funny to see him split his pants at the Oscars.

Metanoia plays with 'Little Boy'
http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118040911
By James Young
L.A.-based Metanoia Films is set to make helmer Alejandro Monteverde's "Little Boy," starring Ben Chaplin, Emily Watson and David Henrie.
Pic is budgeted at $24 million, funded by a nearly 50-50 split between U.S. and Mexican investors.
Little Boy" is a family drama set in small-town America in the early days of WWII. It revolves around an 8-year-old with developmental problems. His
only friend is his father, and with his departure to war, the troubled boy is forced to confront the cruelty of schoolmates and others.
Filmmakers held a nationwide casting for the titular role, coming up with first-timer Jakob Salvati.
Pic will begin an 11-week shoot in Baja California at the end of August and should be ready for play in 2012.
Metanoia is taking advantage of the state's new film promotion law that establishes a framework for films to work with the government and local
industry, centered largely around the independent Baja Studios, where "Titanic" was shot.
Film will also shoot in Rosarito beach, Ensenada, Tijuana and Tecate.
Metanoia was founded in 2005 by Monteverde, thesp-producer Eduardo Verastegui, childhood friends from Mexico, along with Leo Severino.
In choosing Baja, Verastegui noted the support of Governor Jose Guadalupe Osuna and praised Baja Studios prexy Kurt Honold for undercutting the
competition in what the studios hope will be the start of a long relationship with Metanoia.
The film will apply for the Fondo ProAudioVisual rebate that was created last year to attract "high-impact" productions. It would be the first of such
projects for Baja California and the fifth overall to take the federal rebate.
Metanoia's first outing was 2006's "Bella," helmed by Monteverde and produced by and starring Verastegui.
Budgeted at $3 million, the pic earned $40 million worldwide and took the audience prize at Toronto -- a first for a Mexican director, paving the way
for the larger scale "Little Boy."
