MYSTICART PICTURES LAUNCHES NATIONWIDE CASTING SEARCH FOR A NEW LANDMARK DOCUMENTARY SERIES ABOUT LIFE IN AMERICA AS EXPERIENCED BY HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: LOS ANGELES – October 16, 2013 –
MysticArt Pictures is
searching the nation for high school seniors to take part in Senior Year, a groundbreaking new
documentary series produced by Jigsaw Productions about life in America as
experienced by its 17-18-year-olds. Fifteen teenagers will be filming themselves and the world
around them, allowing the series to reflect their point of view and provide a
portrait of a generation.
Selected students will be
flown to New York City for a weekend to learn about shooting and storytelling
from Oscar and Emmy-winning leaders in the documentary field. They will be given their own video
equipment to keep and return home to film themselves and those around them for
six months. In addition, students
will be compensated for their footage and Jigsaw is pursuing grants for
participants whose work best demonstrates excellence in documentary filmmaking.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity for selected students to share their stories with the world and learn
about filmmaking from expert documentary director/producers, who will be giving
them invaluable feedback throughout the six-month process.
Jigsaw Productions won
four Emmy Awards this year for its work with HBO and Showtime, and
is home to director Alex Gibney, who won the Academy Award for Taxi to the
Dark Side, received an Oscar nomination for Enron: The Smartest Guys in
the Room and a Sports Emmy nomination for ESPN's Catching Hell.
Jigsaw's latest film, The Armstrong Lie, follows cyclist
Lance Armstrong, and the company is producing a four-hour special about Frank
Sinatra for HBO.
Senior Year is a natural fit for award-winning company MysticArt Pictures, a
company that has already changed countless lives through casting and producing
unique, inspirational, and uplifting programming and critically acclaimed
feature films. Casting Director
Katy Wallin is thrilled to take part in discovering the students who will help
create this groundbreaking documentary series.
