LOS ANGELES, Calif., May 18, 2009 – Hallie Todd Studios, in conjunction with In House Media Film Partners, has announced the launch of the acting conservatory's first full-length feature film, an ensemble piece, starring actress Hallie Todd and ten of her acting students from Washington, Idaho, Texas and California.
The film will be directed by Todd’s husband and partner, actor/writer and producer Glenn Withrow.
Todd, best known for her role as Jo McGuire in Disney’s “Lizzie McGuire” franchise, returns to acting after a hiatus during which she and her husband focused on their production company, In House Media, and film acting conservatory, Hallie Todd Studios, which has been recognized by ABC Primetime, the Los Angeles Times and the New York Times Sunday Magazine as “one of the best.”
Todd and Withrow, along with the couple's daughter, Ivy Withrow, 15, wrote the screenplay exclusively for the conservatory students.
Filming will commence in July 2009.

This sounds cool, having a movie with just students. What is the picture on the poster supposed to be?
The image is of a figure running.
Which students are from Washington and Idaho?
What is it about? is there love interest? Or is it just stricktly horror? Where are you filming?
More information will be forthcoming.
Best wishes with the film! How fantastic of you, to write it specifically for your students. What a treasured experience this will be for you all.
Jess, Glenn, Holly, Karli and all you other girls, good luck, best wishes, and have lots of fun shooting...looking forward to see the final cut. Neil Chedda
