Billy Federighi is directing the indie, which is now shooting in Chicago. Brian Petsos, Gary Giudice, Federighi and Christopher Storer are producing, with Petsos also taking a role.

"Bin," with a script by Storer, centers on a put-upon high school student (Seater) who loans out his van (nicknamed "The Sin Bin") to his friends for their sexual exploits. Complicating matters, he is caught in a love triangle between a cute girl at school (Meade) and the villainous student liaison (Burnham). Gillian Jacobs also is in cast.

Nelson plays a police officer who lives next door to the student. Other cast details were not disclosed. Dante Federighi is exec producing.

UTA-repped Seater was the star of Disney Channel's "Life With Derek." Burnham, repped by Gersh, is best known as the songwriting comedian with a huge YouTube following who is writing a movie for Judd Apatow. Innovative Artists-repped Meade will be seen in Joel Schumacher's "Twelve."
