On Sat. May 21 – Fineview will be transformed to Spineview Movie Set

Another awesome collaboration to show off more of wonderful Pittsburgh! Saturday, May 21, 2011 – is the annual PopUp Pittsburgh – this is the annual project of the Leadership Pittsburgh students.  Each year – PopUp Pittsburgh plans a big day long festival in a different neighborhood.  I checked out the PopUp Pittsburgh Uptown 2 years ago and had a great time checking out many hidden gems of uptown neighborhoods.

But wait, this collaboration also involves zombies. This year PopUp Pittsburgh is taking over Fineview for the day – and trasnforming the neighborhood in to Spineview.  Fineview will be the location for filming a zombie film about the neighborhood and history – and everyone is invited to attend the filming.

There will be food, fun and movie related activities complete with red carpet. We made the residents of Fineview the stars as they tell you why Fineview is a fine place to live. Do you want to be a star? We will be filming our short film, Spineview and you can be an extra. Spineview tells the tale of a proud neighborhood that is beset by zombies. The residents band together to clean up the neighborhood and defeat the zombies. We need a few good zombies and a few bad ones too. Come dressed as a zombies and we will put you on the red carpet and in the film. Best zombie contest starts at 1:00 PM on the red carpet with top 3 getting a featured scene in Spineview plus a swag bag! Parking will be available at the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, located at 302 North Avenue. Shuttle service to the event will be provided from 12:30 – 7:00 pm. We will see you in Fineview on May 21st starting at 1:00 PM. More info at http://www.popuppittsburgh.com/
