Art Institute of Seattle, Academic Director Communications

Thanks to Film Instructor Vaun Raymond for putting this together.

As part of the extra-curricular opportunities at The Art Institute of Seattle, we’re offering free participation in the Emerging Leaders Program, which is an eight week program focused on self knowledge and “soft skills” like group facilitation, mentoring and active listening.   It also involves participants in a service-learning activity of their own choosing and encourages self reflection and community involvement.

 This program is not-for-credit, but a great value for the time spent.  During Fall  Quarter, the Emerging Leaders Program will run on Monday afternoons from 4:45pm – 5:35pm, starting week two. 

The application, which should be returned toBrad Huggins bhuggins@aii.edu by the end of Summer Quarter, ELP Application Fall 2011.

My name is Kylie Ishimitsu and I am an intern at the casting company Foreground Background LLC. The owner Denise Gibbs, is an advisory member of the University of Washington Performing Arts Board. I am currently looking for college age students to be paid extras for a feature film “21 and Over” that will be filming here in Seattle.

Here are some tidbits about the film: 
Feature Film titled “21 and Over”
Filming in Seattle and surrounding communities.
Filming from August 22-September 29
Hundreds of college age paid extras needed (ages 18-25). Must be 18 years of age or older.
Film is being made by the writers of “The Hangover” and “The Change Up”
College party movie in the genre of Animal House and American Pie.

I was hoping that with your help I could get the word out among the Art Institute of Seattle Student community.

If you need more information or have any questions don’t hesitate to contact me.

Thanks

Kylie Ishimitsu
