My producing partner and I, Sophia Raab Downs, along with media guru Kale Kaposhilin of Evolving Media, are making plans to open ChickFlickStudios in Ulster county New York, Summer of '09.
A full service production facility with offices, wardrobe, makeup, costume shop, set shop and a certified NY sound stage making more low budget features eligible to take advantage of this fiscally responsible funding source. And Kale's company has a monster, fully loaded grip truck. Nothing makes me feel all warm and fuzzy like a grip truck.
We will also be offering one funded-grant use of the facility to a female filmmaker per year, in a an effort to put more flicks for chicks into the revenue stream.
More soon ...
