MONICA AS JULIE

The Exposure of Tom King was shot in L.A. with no people in it whatsoever. People from all over the world auditioned for a role, via their webcam.

The movie came about when Emirates launched a direct flight between Dubai and L.A, the home of movies. To celebrate their arrival in L.A, Emirates gave people the opportunity to star in this short movie. On 26th October, as the first flight landed in L.A, auditions for the movie closed.

The Hollywood casting director Avy Kaufman (Brokeback Mountain, Capote, Sixth Sense) selected the final cast. These chosen audtionees then recorded all their scenes, again via webcam. This footage was then composited into the original empty L.A. movie to create the final movie. The movie stars a cast from all around the world, acting together in the same scenes, but who have never met.
The movie premiered on Friday the 7th November 2008, at 20:00hrs in L.A.
