Is anybody who's good at sitting still for 4 hours available tomorrow night?

I’m shooting a short film in a North Lakes cafe tomorrow night (Friday 28th), and just lost my extras. Is anybody available from about 5:30pm to come and sit in the background while four actors tell a story? It’s unpaid, so the only real incentive for you to do it would be that the script is great and the actors are fantastic (they’ll be performing the entire thing like a play)… but maybe you’ve got a book you’ve been meaning to read and need an excuse? You’re also welcome to pretend to drink beer/wine out of the prop bottles. No actual alcohol will be provided. PM me for details. submitted by /u/FeralCapuchin [link] [comments]

I spent the last year making a stoner comedy about two Brisbane bogans, premiering it next Sunday :)

Hey everyone! I’ve spent the last year or so shooting an indie stoner-comedy called “Bogans in Bardon”. It’s about two bogans who accidentally find a backpack full of cocaine and then try to sell it off, getting into hijinks and meeting a bunch of characters along the way. I am premiering the film next Sunday the 6th at Aether Brewing in Milton at 6pm. Entry is free, it’s really just to show the film to people. I am not planning to make any money off of it, it was done purely out of wanting to make a movie :). I shot the whole thing in Brisbane on a smartphone (Oneplus One represent!) and it is my first endeavour into filmmaking. If you want to support local indie filmmaking, or you just want to laugh at two of Brisbane’s shittest blokes trying to get rich quick, or if you just like

Reliable mechanic?

Hi all, I need a 100,000 km service on my car and also a safety check for rego. I’ve just moved up from Sydney, so I’m totally clueless about where to even begin looking for a good mechanic. I’m based around Fortitude Valley, but happy to travel. Any recommendations welcome 🙂 Thanks in advance submitted by /u/missa3 [link] [comments]

Karaoke in Brisbane or West Side

Hi everyone! Looking for info on pubs that have karaoke nights during the week or on Friday or Saturday nights.

Ideally around the city or on the west side. Thanks in advance internet friends! submitted by /u/Dirty_Explorer [link] [comments]

Sold car and received speeding fine while im out of the country (help)

To cut a long story short I sold my car and left for a trip to europe. I get back on the 13th of August. The new owner made a speeding fine in july (whilst I was out of the country). I have all proof of sale and whatnot (and ive also spoken to the new owner who said he would accept the fine in his own name) however the due date for the fine is the 7th of August and I obviously won’t be back in time to sign the fine over into the new owners name. Who do I need to contact to have the due date extended unitl I get back. submitted by /u/Bamkill [link] [comments]

Here's why your Bus Drivers are striking

I just want to put some context into the life of a bus driver and how real of a problem there is that exists with safety and acknowledgement from the employers that more needs to be done. I speak for most Brisbane bus operators, BT, Clarke’s, Surfside, Transdev, Hornibrook, Sunbus, Thompson’s, having contacts with long established colleagues from those groups who all love their job and have seen the happenings in their own group. Manmeet’s murder is not the sole driving force behind these strikes, it did strike a strong chord to all the drivers who’ve been spat on, punched in the face, knocked unconscious in the drivers seat, or the vast scope of other agressive behaviour (windows shot at, knives pulled on them, held up, objects thrown at them or the bus, windows/doors smashed etc). What a lot of people don’t know is this happens a lot, and council
