Well, we’re just 24 hours away from taking the “stage” at the Santa Barbara Clubhouse Grill & Bar in Cape Coral for the premiere performance of “Clubhouse Murders” interactive comedy murder mystery dinner theatre show. The Fort Myers News-Press Gulf Coasting was kind enough to publicize the event for us. The cost is only $40.00 per person for dinner and the show and there are still some tables available. Call 239-574-7050 for reservations or directions to the show.
And our own Marty Wisher was interviewed for the online newspaper, The Examiner, about “Light,” Starlight Productions, and her work as an actor. Check out the article, along with a few others about acting in Southwest Florida from former United Film & Television Artists President Deb Ford.

Wow, what a busy week.
We finished the last of the principal photography for Light earlier this week at a really nice locally-owned pizza parlor I Rigazzi Pizza on Hancock Bridge. Christian and Danny were excellent as usual. UFTA President Al Quinn was perfect as the grumpy, Italian Pizza Parlor owner – some fine acting there. And we had the opportunity to bring Christian and Danny’s real life mothers, Angie and Susan into the background, along with our good friend, Deborah Ford, who was nice enough to let us borrow her camera for the shots below. (with a couple of extra shots from Sue’s phone) And they even let us eat the pizza!
Now we shift gears into promotion and post-production. We will be putting the final touches on Marty’s favorite, the one character not yet seen on film, then some second unit work and editing, editing, editing. Marty’s already working on ideas for the sequel. We’ll keep everyone updated on the progress of promoting the film as things happen.
Meanwhile, we’re putting the finishing touches on our project for Cape Movie Magic. Stop by this free concert with local high schools and the Gulf Coast Symphony, playing for the first time in Cape Coral, February 28th, from 11am on at Cultural Park, near City Hall. Stop by, listen to the music and get your picture taken with one of our movie impersonators:
- Indiana Jones
- Queen Amidala
- Captain Jack Sparrow
- Eragon
- Willy Wonka
- Star Wars Stormtrooper
- Galadriel, from Lord of the Rings
We’ve also heard rumors that some of the fine men of the Fighting 501st will be joining us for the event.
And we have a second date set for our Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre at the Santa Barbara Clubhouse. Mark your calendars for March 21, when we perform “Clubhouse Murders.” More details to come.
In the meantime, enjoy the photos of our fun at I Rigazzi.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – February 13, 2009 – CAPE CORAL, FL
Starlight Productions wraps their final phase of shooting the Sci-Fi Thriller, Light, this week, completing nearly four months of principal photography. The final shoot will be Monday, February 19, 2009 at 2:30pm at I Ragazzi Pizza, 159 Hancock Bridge Parkway, Cape Coral.
Light is set in the not too distant future and centers around a Lucas, boy born with hypopigmentation (Oculocutaneous albinism) who discovers that along with his rare appearance, his birth also granted him developing “super powers” that aid him and his genius best friend, Jake in navigating the often troubled waters of high school. Unfortunately, as with many gifts, there are those who desire to exploit Lucas’ unique situation for their own nefarious ends. Caught in the middle is Jake & Lucas’ science teacher, Mr. Gunther, a former defense contractor, who has a unique understanding of the value of Lucas’ powers.
“Light” is written and directed by local actor-writer Marty Wisher and starsChristian Kilian, Danny Rawley, Keegan Shayne and long-time character actorRick Michaels. In creating the film, Starlight Productions committed to utilizing wholly local talent, from the actors and actresses, all the way through post-production, special effects and crew. Many of the talent pool was drawn from the local chapter of United Film & Television Artists (UFTA)
The work on Light has also caught national attention, due to a growing problem of mistreatment of people with hypopigmentation in Third World countries.
Starlight Productions is a production company that provides live and staged entertainment, celebrity impersonators, science fiction characters, as well as delivering full-service film and video production services, from scripting to shooting, editing, and post-production.

First off, a thanks to I Ragazzi Pizza and owner Tim Luke for letting us utilize his wonderful facility for the last day of shooting (sniff, sniff) for Light. Watch for the photos shortly…
And we thought we’d make it even easier for folks to find the edited clips of the movie on YouTube. Just click this link and you’ll be taken directly to the site where we’ve been posting the pieces of the film. We will also be launching a website specifically for the film at www.Lightthemovie.net in the next week or so, so keep your eyes open!

Prest hits the pool
From Director Marty Wisher: What a blast this weekend has been. We spent two full days filming the teen pool party scene. The kids were awesome. The weather was a tad cooler than we’re used to. But they were troopers about removing their jackets before the cameras started rolling.
Big kudos to Seth Billig (who plays Prest) for his willingness to be “knocked” into the pool (An icy 50-55 degrees). Of course, we had several takes. And I think the kids got a kick out of just hanging out after the filming. Munching, video games, and shooting archery with Ray.
Thanks to Sue Rawley for the majority of the photos – shot in “Sports Mode,” so we got all the action!
