Need Treehouse for U of M Student Filming Project (Lansing, MI)

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Treehouse Scene

I am a producer on a short student film at the University of Michigan and we are in need of a treehouse to film at. It needs to has four walls (not just a platform) but does not need to be extravagant by any means. It will just be a one day shoot for a flashback scene.

You will be thanked in the credits and the film will be shown at the University of Michigan Lightworks Festival AND the Traverse City Film Festival.

If you have a treehouse or know of such a location, we would really appreciate your help!

Thank you,

Kelly
