SPIN 6 - PREPRODUCTION RAMPAGE!

Matt's neweset movie, "Spin 6", is on a preproduction rampage! Figuring it was time to maybe give some folks outside our friendly circle a chance to show of their acting "skillz", Matt "Mister Films" Ryan decided to hold auditions for the parts. Now, while I don't really see the need for such things in a movie that will only have six parts, I think its still a good idea because we may be able to meet up with people who would be interested in such an opportunity but simply didn't have access to anything of the sort until now. To advertise the auditions, Matt made some nice and dandy posters for us to use! Check them out:

When you think of, "places that don't have jack oportunities for people with an interest in acting", one of the first places that pops into your head winds up being the good 'ol University of Texas at San Antonio. Other than a few clases offering knowledge in communications, UTSA offers absolutely nothing for aspiring thespians to partake in to flex their skills, save for the only two clases in their Theatre Arts division- Acting 1 and Acting II, and the two acting clubs.
So, I'd have guessed that UTSA would have welcomed my putting up posters inviting fellow students to audition for a part in "Spin 6". But unfortunetly, while the classes, professors, and students at UTSA are all extremely nice, the idiotic beuracracy that runs the show over there is filled with some of the stupidest policies I have ever heard of. The policies also have morphing powers, and they change shape and form from time to time depending on who you ask. I was first told that Matt's well done flier looked too "business like". After I informed them that Mister Films did not make anything over negative one hundred dollars any given year, they told me that I could not put it up as it was something occuring "off campus". The fact that I am a student at UTSA holds no meaning. The fact that they should be encouraging something like this in order to promote me not hating them for denying their patrons an opportunity doesn't ring a cord with them either. But hey, rules is rules, right? What they say goes! They were even nice enough to try to sell me to buy ad space in the crappy newspaper that they print out!

Then I saw this on the wall:

Now, what is this guy doing?! This definetly means a sale will inevitably be made, will it not? Is UTSA monitoring this guy to make certain that this exchange of money and book takes place on UTSA campus, and if it doesn't will it issue a heavy fine?
I think the real answer is that this person (whose name I have blurred out) submitted a poster which is of much higher quality than Matt's. Hey, there's only so much bulletin board space for the fifty five hundred different fraternities to put up gnarlish looking crap, isn't there? So in an effort to adhere to UTSA's screw ball logic, I have redesigned Matt's orginal poster. Hopefully, after the beuracracy sees this, they will screach something at me in the alien code they use to communicate. This will be my signal that its hip with them, and I'll be able to post it.

Note my use of high quality clip art, such as a trophy and a race car. People will see the trophy and think, "Oh my God, I could win that!". And race cars are always cool. With this new poster, I'm sure our poster's will be accepted. See, the system works! You just have to know how to negotiate with it.
