Come be in a short film about San Francisco!
Hosted by
^◡^San Francisco, get ready for your close-up. 🎬
The city isn’t just a backdrop. It’s the story.
Director Joe Talbot (The Last Black Man in San Francisco) is gathering neighbors, dog walkers, shoppers, café regulars and park-goers for a new short film. It’s a cinematic tribute to the wild, layered, beautiful city we share.
City of Wild follows a lone coyote as it makes its way from the Marin Headlands into San Francisco, crossing paths with the people who shape the city in real time — neighbors, artists, swimmers, cyclists, park regulars. The city isn’t a setting in this story. It’s an active presence.
This isn’t about actors. It’s about locals. Adults of all ages from every corner of San Francisco.
This is your invitation to step into the frame.
To show up.
To be part of something real.
See you on set.

Dress like yourself. Just camera-ready.
Works best:
• Solid colors
• Earth tones and rich mid-tones
• Simple, well-fitted pieces
• Subtle textures
Please avoid:
• Busy patterns like tight stripes, small checks or intricate prints (they can distort on camera)
• Large logos or bold branded graphics
• Neon or fluorescent colors
• Pure white or solid black if possible
• Reflective or shiny fabrics like satin, sequins or metallics
Not sure? Bring a couple of options and we’ll help on set.

🌈 DOLORES PARK VIBE
This one is about joy, freedom and full Gay Beach energy.
Express yourself. Color, personality, sun hats, vintage tees, playful layers. This is the place for it.
Blankets, sunglasses, park lounging energy. We want it to feel real and alive.
Still avoid:
• Large brand logos
• Extremely tight stripes or high-contrast patterns
Otherwise, bring the Dolores magic.
