🎬 Miss Takes Film Club Presents: Wild Takes – The Neighbors

9:00 AM09:00

🎬 Miss Takes Film Club Presents: Wild Takes – The Neighbors

🎬 Miss Takes Film Club Presents: Wild Takes – The Neighbors

A One-Day Film Experiment: Scripted Scenes, Improv, & Creativity on the Fly

🗓️ Date & Time

Saturday, October 11, 2025
9:00 AM – 7:00 PM
📍 Location: Houston (address given to the official cast/crew)

🎞️ What Is Wild Takes?

Wild Takes is a fast-paced, improv-inspired film day where we throw the script out the window (after we’ve filmed it, of course).
You’ll start with a short scripted scene and move into fully improvised group and solo segments — all captured on camera.

No experience needed. Just come ready to create, collaborate, and take a few wild swings.

🎬 Part 1: Scripted Scene – The Neighbors

Written & Directed by: Samuel Robles (writer/director)

Official Cast:

  • Laney – Ama Udugamasooriya

  • Tristen – Raquael Torres

  • Mr. Tuskegee – Glen Jordan

  • Mrs. Tuskegee – Cici Blanco

We’ll be filming this original short as our opening piece — and then building from it in the improv rounds.

🎭 Part 2: Group Improv

Open to everyone!
Choose a character or get a prompt from us. Keep the energy and reality going as long as it feels believable — we’ll film until it doesn’t.

🎤 Part 3: Solo Improv – Confessionals

Step into the confessional booth in character — your moment to spill secrets, dreams, frustrations, or twisted logic.

We’ll guide you, or you can create your own on the spot.
It’s fun. It’s chaotic. It’s Miss Takes at its best.

🍽️ Good Vibes + Good Food

This is a 100% volunteer-based production.
We’ll provide a delicious meal as a thank you for your time, energy, and talent. 💛

Questions?

Feel free to reach out. We’re here to make sure everyone feels welcome, safe, and inspired to create.
