Don't miss the 10th annual Oxford Film Festival: films at Malco Oxford Studio and panels at the Lyric Oxford.
The Mississippi Film Office, Mississippi Film & Video Alliance, and OxFilm will host the third Table Read Mississippi in conjunction with the 10th annual Oxford Film Festival.
A table read is a gathering of actors around a table to read a script aloud to give filmmakers, producers and writers an idea of how the final production will sound. It is a valuable tool in the creative process, because it can ensure that a scene actually plays well using real actors and conveys the intended message to the audience.
The featured script will be BEULAH written by Gail Gilchriest (MY DOG SKIP) based on the novel Why Beulah Shot Her Pistol Inside the Baptist Church written by the late Clayton Sullivan, professor of religion at the University of Southern Mississippi.
The film will be produced in Mississippi by New Albany, MS native Hudson Hickman (pictured; former VP of TV Production at MGM; The Love Boat, MacGyver, Stargate) and directed by Steve Herek (Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure, 101 Dalmatians, Mr. Holland’s Opus). Both will be in attendance.
Admission is FREE
The event will be hosted at The Powerhouse in Oxford at 413 South 14th Street.
Reception at 5:30 p.m. followed by Table Read Mississippi at 6:00 p.m.
