Prof and students work on feature film
Monday, July 10, 2006
Jamey Durham, assistant professor of communication studies, is serving as producer for a new film that is being shot in Orange City this summer. Several Northwestern College students are serving as actors, production assistants and technicians.
Dave's 16th is a comedy written and directed by Michael Anderson, an Orange City resident who formerly worked as a video editor for CBN. He and Durham were classmates in the M.F.A. film program at Virginia's Regent University. Now they are working together on their own film production company, Flying Ace Studios.
Their film-in-progress tells the story of an All-American kid who plans the perfect 16th birthday: getting his driver's license, taking out the girl of his dreams--in the perfect car--but everything goes terribly wrong.
Anderson aims to have the movie ready for theatre release by next spring.
