"It looks like we may have another film to watch for...(just a side note, the contracts are still being signed on this so it's not completely finalized and not on imdb yet...I've just had an e-mail from the Producer, Tom Rice, and he's said he'll let us know when it's all good to go.)

Off to Oregon
"I've been hired on a new production! "The Presence" is a ghost story starring Oscar winner, Mira Sorvino and Goran Visnjic. Filming takes place on location at the Historic Ranger's Cabin at Clackamas Lake, about an hour outside of Portland, Oregon. Tom Provost and Tom Rice, the writer/director and producer, respectively, invited me to be part of their 30 member cast and crew on Mark Stolaroff's recommendation. Shooting takes place over four weeks in this very isolated location. We'll be housed at the Collins Lake Resort in the village of Government Camp. Government Camp, located on the south slope of Mt. Hood is known for two things. It's the only place in the US where you can ski year-round and it's home to the Timberline Lodge, where Stanley Kubrick shot exteriors for "The Shining". Spooky.
Best part of this project, I'm getting paid! And the "Pig Mobile" has also been hired. That means I'll be driving the fourteen hour trip through northern California to get there. My goal is to take lots of pictures and keep posting. Oh, my job on the film? I'm Production Hostess, responsible for keeping everyone fed, happy and feeling taken care of . . . in other words, dispenser of Southern Hospitality!
Check out the project and where we are staying at the two new links, www.khartoumfilms.com/ and

and the film synopsis:
A tale of good and evil, "The Presence" is a noir ghost story set against the backdrop of breathtaking Oregon vistas that explores the spiritual relationship of men and women, the value of life, and the inevitable triumph of good over darkness. From the writer of "Under Suspicion" with Gene Hackman and Morgan Freeman, "The Presence" is a psychological voyage through the minds of three characters, two living and one who is already dead. In the beginning we discover a man living an isolated and lonely existence, alone in the impenetrable forest. His mournful solitude is broken when a woman appears and takes over his cabin. The man is completely invisible to her and soon we discover that he is in fact a ghost and she is the living owner of this strange property. The woman has recently made a choice she may regret, and the decision has caused her to leave her husband for the solitude of this cabin. When the husband appears to try and reunite with the woman, we discover other more malevolent forces are at work. As the hauntings escalate, otherworldly whispers ominously fill the cabin. Soon, another dark presence appears. Spiraling to an intense and terrifying battle of good versus evil, the film navigates through twists and turns, culminating in a climax that will leave the audience breathless."
