Promo shot and edited by our talented cinematographer @jamison_official - @mesaproductioncompany ! Shout out @brandon.dillon_ for assisting us.
The feature film “Local Talent” is a heartfelt dramedy about a struggling actor/screenwriter, Steve Wilson, who is duped by a phony Hollywood producer into raising $60,000 from family and friends, to shoot a demo reel for a Baywatch-style TV series, set not in Malibu, but on Lake Erie, with average joe life guards. Will Steve turn the disaster into something positive for the community!?
Pre-production is underway, casting of some roles very soon, and we aim to begin filming in July/August of 2026.
Please consider helping us reach our goal so we can make the best film possible! Every little bit can go a long way.

We had the pleasure of sitting down with Bill Murray III — and trust us, you’re going to want to hear this one!
His latest project, One of the Good Ones, now streaming on Amazon Prime Video, tells the powerful story of a local Buffalo attorney navigating life, integrity, and the challenges of doing the right thing when it’s not always easy. It’s real, relatable, and rooted right here in Western New York — which makes it even more special.
🎬 You’ll get the inside scoop on the film, the inspiration behind it, and Bill’s journey in the industry.
👉 The FULL episode is out NOW!
Make sure you subscribe and catch the full conversation — link in bio!
