Maria is currently in pre-production for the short film SUDDEN DEATH, directed by Adam Hall.  Set in Los Angeles, SUDDEN DEATH is a musical about a virus known as “Sudden Death Syndrome,” a disease that causes its victim to die suddenly and has only one symptom…spontaneously breaking into well-choreographed song and dance.  Maria is dancing in the film as one of the Los Angelinos who becomes a victim of the disease, as well as providing vocals for the soundtrack.

Maria spent the week in the recording studio laying down vocals for the soundtrack and in the dance studio rehearsing the choreography.  Shooting is scheduled for December 13th and 14th.  The film is scheduled for a June 2010 release.  For more info, check out the official SUDDEN DEATH website at http://www.suddendeaththemovie.com/Sudden_Death/Home.html.
