A Star is Born


Last Monday, October 8th, Cameron and some of his fellow school mates were invited to participate as extras in a movie that was being filmed aboard the DFDS Ferry. The boys were to play the part of members in the Kansas City Boys Choir on a field trip. leaving Copenhagen Denmark and sailing to Oslo, Norway. This trip takes 16 1/2 hours which happens to be the name of the movie: "16 1/2 Hours".

The film crew was fantastic and made all of the boys feel comfortable. As we (the parents) were watching, we were asked if we wanted to be in the film. We played passengers walking down the gangway...not a difficult part to play but a lot of walking with each take.
The boys meet the crew and are shown what to do

They change into their "choir shirts"

The movie premieres in April 2013 and will have English sub-titles and the boys will all be invited to see it.
