Extra Chances

They fell in love and became extras in the movies…

We are Sallye & Damon

After long careers as small business owners — right when it felt like the time to retreat into quiet retirement — we found each other and a new adventure in life: becoming movie extras.

What began as a harmless joke ultimately unlocked the world of movie sets, exotic travel destinations, unexpected friendships, and newfound purpose.

Who knew that we could have so much fun enjoying our retirement?

Over the past few years, we’ve been documenting our journey as we ventured from Seattle to Hollywood to Italy and more! We’ve met writers, directors, and producers along the way who have taken interest in our story, and we want to continue sharing it with the widest possible audience.

We invite you to stick along for the ride and discover just what kind of second chances life has to offer…

Ours is a story of reinvention.

We found each other a little later in life and decided to put retirement back on the shelf.

There was so much more to do, more to see, more to explore…

We figured if there was a way to get paid for enjoying our lives, we definitely needed to document it.

We have developed a feature length script based on our life and are currently looking for investors.
