WELCOME RESIDENTS OF PLUM CREEK!
Thank you for working with us as we get ready to film on your street!
WHAT WE'RE DOING:
With approval from the City of Kyle, we will be shutting down a small section of STRAWN (Between Hartson and Schmidt) for part of Saturday (SAT APRIL 14th).
(This will NOT affect your ability to use the Alley/Access Roads behind your homes.)
The Advanced Film Directing Department of Texas State University will be working all summer long on a web-series that will be filmed locally. On this particular day (SAT APRIL 14th) we will be filming a small scene in your neighborhood as a part of that web-series.
During the day, we will be filming a scene where a young boy is running home to hide his book collection - a collection that Nazi censorship troops would love to destroy. Nazi troops will be following him as they gather collections from homes in the area.
WHAT YOU WILL SEE:
There will be "NAZI SOLDIERS" walking through your neighborhood, WITH swastika armbands. They ARE NOT real!!
The "NAZI SOLDIERS" might have guns/rifles. They are plastic props and NOT dangerous!!
There will be a truck with a smoking barrel - it DOES NOT actually have fire in it, it is just a smoke machine!!
There might be a fight scene on someone's lawn - It is NOT real.
HOW YOU CAN HELP:
