Magda Marcella plays "Joy," the female lead

From an actual conversation after Ms. Marcella was cast:

Magda: So I got a part in this film.... It's set in a nudist resort and my character is kind of a rebel.
Friend: Wait, how can you be a nudist AND a rebel?
Magda: Well... I wear clothes.

Magda Marcella is an alumni of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Born in Germany to Polish parents, she spent most of her childhood in Austin,Texas, but has lived in many other countries. She credits her stay in Moscow, Russia for her interest in acting. An avid skier, she also enjoys painting and hiking in her spare time. Magda is a member of Knockouts For Girls, a non-profit organization geared toward empowering young women in need.

The Cast of the Screening Room



The cast gathers for the dance sequence.

No, this isn't a musical, but that would be cool wouldn't it. They are: Alicia Arden, Iyad Hajjaj, Magda Marcella, Cerina Da Graca, Michael Soulema and Kara Michelle Hyatt.

Photos Coming Soon!



But in the meantime, I wanted to report that we finished Day 12 of the Screening Room.

Kara Michelle Hyatt who plays Britney is officially picture wrapped. (There is a matter of a pickup shot, but that doesn't count.)

As for nudity, it's been pretty conservative so far. A topless woman here, a nude man walking by there. But there will be more. It won't be pretty in the beginning and it's likely the swimming pool scenes will have only implied nudity. Makes more of an impact that way.

For now, I'm open to suggestions about the title. The Screening Room doesn't say "nudist film." And putting the work "Naked" in it only makes it sound like a porn.

It's a comedy, so it should sound like one. Suggestions anyone?

Nudist Scenes coming up in August

My nudist comedy is now in Day 11 of production. We are ready to prepare for the nudist segments.

For those of you just joining us, "The Screening Room" is a satire making fun of anti-nudist and sell-outs. Congressman Foley and the Ponderosa Sun Club, respectively are shining examples of these. I also take potshots at Ann Coulter, Michelle Malkin and Bristol Palin.

We are filming in Los Angeles, and we aim to break the stereotype of nudists being old, out of shape or unattractive. I've been a nudist for a decade and once in a while I do run into attractive people. Nudist with healthy bodies, not plastic ones.

So if this is you, we would love to have your involvement. We can even talk about co-producers' credits as well.

We want to show the world that there are beautiful people in nudism. Scenes involve playing ping pong and participating in a disastrous beauty pageant and swimming. This is your chance to represent the nudist community.

This film has distribution and a theatrical screening is planned, in addition to a film festival strategy.
