Hello and welcome.  Following you will find the information that you need in your role as a Background Player on Monday, 10/14.

Everyone should read carefully all instructions and categories that apply to you.

Everyone should come dressed in their first, best choice based on the descriptions below and bring your other options for us to look at and make the final decisions.  Please bring all your clothing in with you when you check in.  DO NOT LEAVE YOUR CLOTHES IN THE CAR!!!!!!!

CONSTRUCTION TYPE WORKERS AND CIA WORKERS w/ CARS 7am call time: 


You will be working in two screen days on Monday. For the first scene follow the wardrobe directive listed below under the character you'll be playing. The second scene we are shooting is a Memorial service and all of you will be CIA workers. Construction type folks will need to bring options following the CIA workers guidelines below in addition to their construction wardrobe items. The CIA workers with the 7am call will need to bring enough options for two wardrobe changes. 


CONSTRUCTION PERMIT INSPECTOR, ENGINEER, JOB FOREMAN, ARCHITECT & ARCHITECT'S ASS'T: need to bring a variety of khakis and other casual slacks, dark jeans, upscale casual shoes in brown or black leather or suede (to dress you up a bit from the construction workers), sport coats, casual button front shirts, short or long sleeve polos, light weight sweaters, etc. Think of what an architect or engineer might wear to work at a job site. Costumes will provide a white hard hat for you. You will be working in two screen days so bring plenty of options for us to choose your looks.  Your second change will be for the memorial so please make sure you have clothes for that as well.  See Below under Misc CIA worker....

CONSTRUCTION WORKERS: IRONWORKER, ELECTRICIAN, CARPENTER, PLUMBER & HEADMASON: need to bring a variety of non-ripped jeans, work pants such as carhartts and dickies, work boots, short and/or long sleeve t-shirts in colors such as heather grey, tan and brown, chambray shirts and/or casual work shirts in solid colors (let's avoid plaids and patterns please), long sleeve thermal tops and henleys would be nice touches for layering (in colors such as cream, navy, or grey). Costumes will provide a safety vest and yellow (or other color) hard hat as best fits the work your character will be doing. Please remember casual belts (brown or black). You will be working in two screen days so bring plenty of options for us to choose your looks.  Your second look will be for the memorial so please make sure that you have the appropriate clothes for that as well.  See below under Misc CIA worker...

EVERYONE PLEASE KEEP YOUR CLOTHING COLORS IN THE MUTED RANGE: IDEAL COLORS ARE NAVY, SHADES OF GREY, BLACK, BURGUNDY, DARK GREEN, TAN, SHADES OF BROWN, CREAM, AND SOFT MUTE COLORS. THINK OF CLOTHING APPROPRIATE FOR A SOMBER OCCASION, RESPECTFUL AND UNDERSTATED.

CIA TECHS are the most casually dressed at the CIA.  You should bring several options of the following:
Khakis/skirts/slacks
Long and short sleeve casual button front shirts/blouses
Long and short sleeve casual pullover shirts/blouses (no tees)
Pullover light weight sweaters and cardigans and sweater vests
Light weight jackets/windbreakers
Hoodies and zip front jackets
Don't forget your shoes to go with these options.
CIA TECHS should make sure that they have sport coats, dresses and things that would be appropriate for the memorial service for the second change.

CIA  ANALYSTS, CIA SECRETARIES & misc CIA workers W/ CARS: are the mid range of dress at the CIA.  You should bring several options of the following:
Sport coats/blazers
Khakis/skirts/slacks
Long and short sleeve casual and dress shirts/blouses
Polo shirts
Pullover light weight sweaters and cardigan style sweaters
Don't forget your shoes and other accessories to go with these options.

CIA SUITS are the highest level of dress at the CIA.  You should bring several options of the following:
Medium to dark suits
Ties
Long sleeve dress shirts/blouses
Don't forget your dress shoes and belts to work with these options.

CIA SECURITY & CIA "BOOK" SECURITY  should wear and bring choices of dark suits (black, dark grey and navy), long sleeve white dress shirts and dark ties.  Ties can have some pattern and design, just nothing too bold or striking.  These ties should be quiet..  Don't forget your black dress shoes and belt to go with your suits. Costumes will be providing white gloves to the CIA book security.

CIA WIDOWS, MOTHERS, MEMORIAL ATTENDEES (FEMALE):  should wear and bring upscale, dark clothing.  Dresses, two piece skirt suits and pant suits, jackets and cardigans that could work with your dresses.  We do not want everyone in all black.  Please bring black and things other than black.  Navy, dark grey and other dark colors that are appropriately somber would be great options to bring.  Blouses for your suits I am going to be more specific about.  You should bring a white or cream colored option and an option in a soft color like pale blue, pink, etc.  Also please bring an option that has some small detail or pattern, like a stripe or subtle graphic.  Shoes should be conservative and appropriate for the occasion.  Jewelry should also be conservative.  The look is conservative and traditional.  Think St John, Ann Taylor, Banana Republic, etc.

CIA FATHERS, WIDOWERS, MEMORIAL ATTENDEES (MALE) should wear and bring choices of a dark suit in black, navy, dark grey, etc.  I need for everyone to specifically bring the following for your shirt options.  A white or cream colored choice, a choice in a pale color like light blue, pink, tan, etc, and an option that has a stripe or subtle check.  For your ties choices we would like to see ties that have some appropriate color like burgundy, greens, blues (nothing too bright), and some darker ties like black, navy, grey, etc.  We are wanting everyone to be able to look more somber if necessary or a bit more colorful if necessary.  This will keep us from having everyone look exactly alike.  Don't forget your dark dress shoes and belt to work with your options.  The look is conservative and traditional.  Think Brooks Bros.

CIA MINORS should bring options appropriate for a funeral or somber occasion. Nothing bright and colorful...muted or darker colored clothing is ideal. Dresses, skirts, blouses, lightweight sweaters or cardigans, pants (school uniform colors such as navy, tan, brown, black would work well here), no jeans please. Long sleeve shirts either button front or polo style, sweater vest if you have or any other items that feel like fall. Dark shoes in brown or black are preferred. Please avoid large graphics or logos in your clothing. Think understated colors and styles for a serious occasion. 

CIA Families: Please look above and follow the guidelines as they apply to you (male, female, minors).

Thanks in advance for coming to join us and for bringing all your great clothing.  We look forward to working with you and will see you on the set!!
