The Twilight Saga: New Moon – auditions parody by Sterlin Harjo

New Moon Wolf Pack Auditions from sterlinharjo on Vimeo.


Cinematographer Sterlin Harjo ’s (Creek/Seminole) hysterical parody of the audition process for The Twilight Saga: New Moon is “playful and schexy”. I’d like to see him create a full length feature along the same lines as this short film. I wonder how an spoof of the old classic PowWow Highway would play out.

Ryan Red Corn, (Osage) owner of Demockratees lends his personality to this skit along with Dallas Goldtooth, Bobby Wilson and Migizi Personeau.

Have fun and enjoy :-)
