From the Director's Chair
Things happen. No matter how hard you plan, or smoothly something is running, things happen. Such is life.
This past week we received word that the actor playing the Ideal in JACOB will, in fact, no longer be playing the role. Being just shy of three weeks until principal photography, this news was certainly jarring to all of us, but, as I have said before, things happen. Instead of putting a stop on production, we have moved principal photography to the spring, and are re-casting the role.
This event follows shortly after Joan Macintosh became very ill, and had to step back. She will still be involved in JACOB however, as she is a part of the Jacob family, even if she is not on the screen. The role of the Mother will be played by the incomparable Kelley Rae O'Donnell, who is also slated to play Claire Daniels in Amongst The Living.
Needless to say, January has been an interesting month so far for everyone involved with JACOB, but we are moving forward, and viewing this as an opportunity to create positive change for the production we feel very strongly about.
Stay tuned for more information, especially the announcement of who will be playing the IDEAL, in Jacob.
Sincerely,
Justin John Costello

CASTING EXTRAS FOR JACOB!
BLACKAngel Films is currently seeking out extras for JACOB, a short erotic horror film shooting in New York City on Feb 1st and 2nd!
Extras are needed to portray personified facets of personality, (serving as a Greek Chorus) as well as writhing bodies of the dead. These extras will be partially to fully nude, and also have latex make-up appliances.
JACOB tells the tragic tale of a young man at a crossroads in his life. Structured similar to the Greek Tragedies, the main drama focuses on the young man's encounter with his Ideal. The film stars Samuel Colt as the Ideal, and Kris Marconi as Jacob, and is written and directed by Justin John Costello.
Those interested, please send photos and note of intent to the director at oblivion.productions@yahoo.com
NOTE: There is no pay for extras at this time.
