Aussie short for US comedy begins production
Mini Studios will start production of the short film The Apprentice in Melbourne this week, for inclusion in a feature produced by Peter Farrelly and Charles B. Wessler, of There’s Something About Mary fame.
It will be directed by Steve Baker and Damon Escott, with funding from Screen Australia and Film Victoria.
A spokesperson for Film Victoria said the decision to support this project was made last week.
The Apprentice is one of 24 comedy shorts that will be released as one film by Summit Entertainment.
