‘Normal Life,’ Illinois

  • (Originally Published in the 2006 Edition of the CNGM Insider)

    Normal Life is the story of a college junior who realizes that he has no idea who he is, what he wants or where his life is going. Struggling to break away from what is expected of him, he carves out a piece of this universe he can call his own, regardless of the cost.
    The film was written, produced and directed by Marc Muszynski (director of Tough Love).  Shot on location in Normal, Illinois, the production was completed in less than three weeks.  “We had a limited amount of time, but making the film was our full-time job with no interruptions,” said producer and director of photography Steve Coulter.  “This allowed us [as filmmakers] to be more focused on what we were trying to accomplish.”
    Normal Life stars Marc Muszynski, Nick Mikula, Caitlin Barlow, Brian Wohl, Annie Rix and Kim Pereira. “The producers were heavily involved with the production from the very beginning and with their talent, support and dedication, shooting was completed with little trouble,” says Muszynski.  “The process was very collaborative.”
