Hi Alex here the info ive been given...
Thank you for posting the notice, it is really appreciated, especially by us, we are a small up and coming film company here in Maine. We are poised to do big things with this feature though. As far as a paid gig - we won't know that until we have the SFX estimate in our hands by next month. We do have a funder, and a decent budget for an indie film. I wish I could answer better than that Chara, but I cannot at his time.
Hi Alex, Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. So the Hero Cast thing. Here's what I've gleaned from it.
I actually found it through NEFilm.com and checked it out to see if I wanted to audition for it (but decided not to, not my scene really). Essentiall it's a "reality show" of sorts. Apparently you go in and audition/read/camera test for it and what they do it make mini "webisodes" of everyone's readings, post them on YouTube and basically people supposedly vote on who they want to continue on as they narrow it down to the "cast" that is to be playing the characters in the movie. So it's the "people" who decide the cast for this movie is going to be. You don't get paid for the webisodes, but apprently when you get officially cast you do get paid for the movie project. I checked out some of the YouTube videos and the whole thing just seemed a wee bit silly to go through,
The project has a web page that I could see if I could find again if you wanted to check it out, just let me know.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
~Heather
I'd seen an posting for them in NewEnglandFilm.com and checked out their deal. Tell you about it tomorrow. :)

Did anyone respond to your "Hero" cast question? I think I have a handle on what it's about, sorta, but don't want to be repetative if someone else already told you about it.

Alex, contratulations on your IRNE wins, way to go!!!
