Here are just a few behind the scenes photos from our submission to the Z-Fest Film Festival this year!

11/28/2018

Hey everybody! We are starting production on our submission for this year's Z-Fest and are still in need of one supporting actress.

It is a physical role and the actress will be comedically playing a creepy older woman. She's never really shown up close so the body language and movement is important. Any experience level in acting welcome!

We are shooting on location at a cabin up north and are heading up Saturday morning (12/1) and returning early Sunday afternoon (12/2). Transportation to and from the cabin will be provided along with meals for the duration.

If you are available and interested in this opportunity or have any questions please message this page or Chris Bales / Jake Mierva directly!

As we begin working to expand our brand, Northern Nights Productions is excited to start offering professional headshots.

Whether you're a performer, a business professional, or simply somebody who would like a top notch headshot, we'd love to work together.

We're offering a photoshoot in which you'll get the 5 best shots for $50. We can discuss ahead of time the style of photos you're looking to get, and get you 5 photos which show you off the best.

We're beginning to schedule photoshoots, so please shoot us an email at [email protected] to set up a date and time.

Looking forward,
Chris and Jake

CALL FOR ACTORS:
Yes! We are once again working on the Minneapolis 48 Hour Film Festival, and we need actors! The commitment is for Saturday, June 2nd. We won't be able to begin writing the film until the night before, so we have no idea who we will need, so we want to get as many actors on board as possible. Any actor we use would be called at roughly 7 or 8am on Saturday, and we'll be filming for the entirety of the day. And of course we'll provide food. It's always a lot of fun, and if you want to check out our films from the last couple of years, check us out on Youtube and see what we've made. If you're interested please let either Jake or Chris know!

Hey everyone! Jake and Chris are excited to announce that we started an online merch store with Teespring! We will be adding new designs every so often so if you like our content please check it out!

Also, the website will say the products are only available for a certain amount of time but once that time runs out it will start over automatically so no hurry!

If you have any comments, concerns or future design suggestions feel free to message us!

Hey everyone! We are excited to do another run of merch just in time for summer! If some of the prices look a little "unconventional" it is because we are pricing them as close to cost as possible to keep them as affordable as we can.
