hello my name is scott kappa standing in the creator writer director for the t v web series harbor island it's a story about an f b i agent that's played by local actress cindy s the character pippa rains and she's dispatched by her boss the director of the seattle f b i office to a isolated island community in the puget sound to investigate the disappearances of some local children and we're very excited in privilege to have actually cindy back again with one of productions of worked with cindy on a number of projects in the past she actually hosted a travel show that we have underway right now with island get away t v and she also was a lead actress in emerald knights another t v series we did a couple of years ago so something that cindy and i have been talking about over the last year and a half about getting a character that can get out in the field and and do some investigative police work f b i work and she comes to us fresh off of two very successful  exciting productions here in seattle agent five which is a series carter series productions and also the tramp which is a short film and she's recently got some some gun training and some some  character work as a special agent with the agent five series she did so we're really excited for this a oftentimes writers write for parts of actors that they've worked with in the past that helped them with their with something that they've either done before or that they're really eager to do so we're excited to have cindy on board another actor that's joining us again for the second time as michael james is a local eastside actor and the puget sound area that played the director of the in the t v series and will knights in michael's going to be playing a very similar character as another f b i director a suit wearing stern man with harbor island and this go around he's going to have a much more  elaborate seemed as he converses with cindy lee most prior to dispatching her to this island that have saw all these disappearances so we're excited to have michael back it's he's a great guy to work with he brings  incredible energy and a good smile and and he's always eager to be a part of what we're doing here we have a number of new actors joining us for this production and some people that we have to work with in the past but to really shine in the eye dish and process a j to all of our she's an actress actually out of the south end of the puget sound that hosts her own television show and has got some experience and some t v and web series as well she plays a traumatised mother of our first girl that disappears and she's a joy to around she's very motivated and it's an honor to work with people that are that inspired and excited about their career and can really get into the character and the material and i'm really excited to  working with some of them like a j another new actress that we're going to be featuring our series of harbor island is newcomer janay crick and janae comes to us out of the south sound area the tacoma area in her first television and web series appearance she's done a little bit of modeling and and has a little bit of training but when she came into the auditions she kind of made an impact to me i it's interesting part because she's our first girl it disappears and there has to be a certain look to her and oftentimes children when they come to auditions they're going to be terrorized in very intimidated by the process especially somebody that's never been to additional yeah and then when janae walked in she actually had the look that i had written the part for and so that was kind of half the battle in the gutter some material started to read and she also has a very soft voice in that we're probably going to be using her voice as of voice over really giving these actors an opportunity to work with me in length he said prior to allocating the resources in the actual filming of it so we've had a lot of luck with that another new actor that comes to us via alaska kevin lee kevin is going to be playing o island horse rancher who has lived on this island for a number of years and and always seems to be involved in what's happening and he is visited by max tandy the island detective in the f b i agent early on in the pilot in as a potential suspect in the disappearance of these kids because typically when something happens on the island whether it be good or bad his name is jake he knows about it and so we are have been blessed to get incredible live twenty acre horse ranch to use as his fictitious residence in in the series and he's really excited about that kevin doesn't have a lot of experience with television or film for sale but he does have some training and more so he brings real elements of his real life into this character he's an outback kind of a guy he likes to fish and hunt and those are sort of certain character traits that jake has in th series so when he came in and read for the part we did a lot of improv and we talked a little bit about that and and he just breathed a lot of life into that character very early on and it was it was no question that he was going to be our island information guy so we're excited to have kevin one of our main objectives for the harbor island series is to allow our actors access to showcasing their their talent with the series so they can something they can they can talk about to their friends share online and say hey you know i'm a part of a cable t v series that can only be seen on in seattle ensuring almost a primetime timeslot of six thirty and also to share with their friends in their in dispute industry people online so that's kind of our main objective with this and it typically is for a number of my productions is really putting the actor first and spending quality time with them in the rehearsal process and for those that aren't experienced working with the film and television  settings in the environment gives me an opportunity to teach them the language and what happens logistically around them and what to prepare themselves for a prior rolling the camera because it can get overwhelming for new people and i like to integrate  those type of rehearsals long before we actually shoot for the real thing so we're really excited for harbor island hi my name is cindy lee most and i play the role of pippa raines for the t v web series harbor island pippa raines is an f b i agent here in seattle and she gets dispatched over to harbor island where she partners with max teddy played by here talented writer director
