Class: Ready, Set, Go: Everything You Need to Know Before You Get to the Studio:

There are just a few slots left for tomorrow's
Ready, Set, Go Television Production Class at 6:30 to 8:30pm at Community
Television Network, 516 Congress Street in Portland.

For more information contact, CTN at 775-2900 or Lesley Jones at
lesleymjones@.... Pre-Registration is open at 6pm for new participants.
FMI and forms, visit: www.ctn5.org.


Class is $25.00, paid to CTN,  and includes instruction on what you need to do
to get ready for a television studio shoot, including; scripting, crew
recruitment, guests and interviewing techniques and more!

This class is taught by veteran television producer, Lesley Jones and Technical
Director, David Merritt. We hope you can join us for this fun and informative
class! (It is the first and pre-requisite in a series of classes offered at
CTN.)

I'm a Portland-area (Cape Elizabeth) film composer who's searching for musicians
to perform on some score work. It's not a paying gig (at this point) but a fun,
collaborative opportunity with some potential, and obviously anything that makes
it to a finished project would be fully credited.

Primarily seeking classically-trained female vocalists (all ranges) to perform
both vocalise pieces and lyrical works; proficiency with foreign languages
(particularly Eastern European or Latin) would be a definite plus.

Also on the lookout for musicians who play orchestral instruments; I've got a
well-established network of players of the more usual instruments (guitar, bass,
drums, etc) and am a multi-instrumentalist myself so those areas are pretty well
covered, but I definitely want to incorporate other instruments into some
projects. So if you play oboe, bassoon, cor anglais, symphonic percussion,
violin, etc. I'd like to hear from you.

It's about a 50/50 mix of written scores and guided improvisation.

Broadway Star Announced for Good Theater’s Holiday Show

Norm Lewis, a Drama Desk Award nominee, will be this year’s headliner for the annual Broadway at Good Theater concerts December 3-6.  Mr. Lewis was most recently seen on Broadway as King Triton in The Little Mermaid at the Lunt Fontanne Theatre. His other Broadway credits include:  Javert in the recent revival of Les Miserables, Billy Flynn in Chicago, Jake in Side Show, John in Miss Saigon, as well as The Wild Party, The Who’s Tommy and Armor.  He recently released an album of show tunes entitled:  Norm Lewis, This is the Life.    
 
Joining him will be three special guests:  Kelly Caufield, a Good Theater regular; singing sensation Marva Pittman who will be making her fourth appearance with Good Theater; and Dennis St. Pierre who starred as Jean Valjean in Maine State Music Theater’s recent production of Les Miserables.
 
These four guests will join Good Theater favorites Grace Bradford, Jen Means, Marc Brann, Stephen Underwood, Jennifer Manzi Macleod, Todd & Katie Daley, and Brian P. Allen. New performers to the Good Theater stage include Marie Dittmer, Devon Dukes, John Adams, Benjamin Row and Lady Zen.
 
Broadway at Good Theater plays for five performances December 3 – 6: Thursday 7:30 ($25), Friday 7:30 ($25), Saturday 3:00 ($25) & 8:00 ($30) and Sunday 2:00 ($30).  For reservations and additional information patrons should call the Good Theater box office at 207-885-5883 or go to the Good Theater website at www.goodtheater.com.   
 
Broadway at Good Theater is the annual holiday fundraising concert for the organization.  Proceeds benefit Good Theater and their season of plays and musicals.  In the past, all five concerts have sold-out, so patrons are advised to get their tickets early.
 
This unique event mixes Broadway hits with holiday favorites.  Act one is devoted to the music of Broadway.  This year patrons will hear songs from South Pacific, The Scarlet Pimpernel, Chess, Hair, Man of LaMancha and many others.  Act two highlights songs of the holiday season.  In addition to well-known numbers like “Sleigh Ride,” “What Child Is This,” and “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” singers will feature some lesser known Christmas songs as well (“Cool Yule,” “Blue Holiday,” “Three Wishes for Christmas”).
 
Good Theater is the professional theater in residence at the St. Lawrence Arts Center, 76 Congress Street, on Munjoy Hill, in Portland.  Upcoming productions at Good Theater include:  The Spitfire Grill (January 21 – February 14) and The Importance of Being Earnest (March 4 - 28).

Passed on from The RI Film Office...
The State Office of Film & TV Needs Your Help:
Dear Friends of Rhode Island Film & Television Production,
For the last five years, we've worked hard to bring an unprecedented amount of
film and television production here to our Ocean State, while providing many new
opportunities for students, crew, vendors, talent, location owners and film
festivals. A few examples of the productions we've hosted include three seasons
of the Peabody award winning Showtime series BROTHERHOOD, the People's Choice
best comedy 27 DRESSES starring Katherine Heigl, Steve Carell's DAN IN REAL
LIFE, the Richard Gere family film, HACHIKO, Walt Disney's UNDERDOG, as well as
EVENING, TELL TALE, TANNER HALL, HOUSE RULES, THE CLIQUE and many more. We are
currently hopeful for the future of film and television in Rhode Island as we
strive diligently to bring more productions home and anticipate an active year
ahead.

Once again, we need your help!
With our state's current fiscal challenges, it is essential we receive feedback
from individuals and companies that have been positively impacted by the film
and television productions, and, more importantly, by the overall impact of the
Motion Picture Incentive Program. Notwithstanding the slowdown of growth due to
the recently enacted "cap" on the tax credit program, we are interested in how
the Motion Picture Incentive Program has helped you and/or your business in the
last five years.

For example, if you are a crew member, how many productions did you work on in
the past five years in Rhode Island and what was the economic impact to you
personally? Did your work in the film industry positively affect your
personal/family life? Were you able to spend more time at home rather than
travel out of state to practice your craft? Were you able to buy a home or start
a new business? Did you receive health insurance? If you are a business/vendor,
has your income grown as a direct result of having Hollywood set up shop here?
Did you hire additional personnel or increase hours for your current staff? Were
you able to save a job? How much did your company earn by providing goods and/or
services to productions in Rhode Island? Most importantly, would you like to see
additional productions filmed in Rhode Island?

This information is crucial to the survival of the Motion Picture Incentive
Program. If the program has had a positive impact on YOUR life or business,
please take a moment to send us a one-page written testimonial by Friday,
November 13, 2009. Attached is a copy of a letter we received from one of our
local vendors which you can use as an example. We look forward to hearing from
you. Thank you for your time.

Warmest regards,
Steven Feinberg

Passed on... Caldera Films, a small Wolfeboro NH-based film company, is seeking
actresses for an upcoming film, The Marriage Counselor.

Synopsis: Bill and Faye Madison's marriage is on the brink of divorce. The only
thing that can save it is an eccentric, radical marriage counselor, Alexandra
Demauparrie. The problem is nobody will say what her methods are, just that she
has a 100% success rate. With nothing to lose the couple decide to give her a
try.

This non-SAG romantic comedy, expected to be roughly 20-25 minutes, will be shot
in the town of Wolfeboro, NH and will be screened there as well. The film is
being made in conjunction with Wolfeboro Community Television and will be shown
on local public access television. All actors will receive a copy of the
finished DVD and notice of all film festivals that the film gains entry into. We
are entering the film in regional film festivals at this point, and will submit
to additional festivals based on its success. Attached is a copy of the
screenplay and treatment. Rehearsals are expected to begin in January with
principal photography completed by mid-February. Our main goal is to have fun
and make new friends while creating an art form.

Anyone interested can email me at:

WEB PRESS RELEASE for Filmmakers:
From: www.7DayPSA.org
7 D A Y P S A
A RIIFF Creative Impulse Award Competition
www.7DayPSA.org
The Rhode Island International Film Festival Announces the Beginning of a New
National Filmmaking Competition.

The 7DAYPSA is a week long competition, where teams (called "Agencies") beat the
clock to produce three broadcast quality versions (20, 30 & 60 seconds) of a
single public service announcement for the deserving local not-for-profit
organization (called "Clients") that the Agency teams have randomly drawn at the
start of the competition. Multiple "Clients" will have PSA's produced and
several "Agency" teams will be producing for the same "Client" organization.
Each "Agency" will have seven days to go from concept to completion. For the
Agency teams, this will be a writing challenge, a shooting challenge, and an
editing challenge. The object is to get as many completed professional broadcast
quality public service announcements for the clients to choose from as possible.
The seven day period allows for this, as well as for the opportunity for media
and marketing classes to use the competition as a teaching tool during the
school week.

The "Seven Day PSA" Competition (7DAYPSA) was conceived by Duncan B. Putney, an
Emmy winning writer and the creative producer of Original Concept & Development
Associates (www.OCDA.biz). This national competition has been created for the
non-profit Flicker's Art Collaborative/Rhode Island International Film
Festival's Creative Impulse Award brand (www.Film-Festival.org). The purpose of
this new type of competition is to challenge local filmmakers to use their
skills and energy to meet a major need of local non-profit organizations, giving
the filmmakers not only a great experience and a good feeling, but also a
broadcast credit for their resumes. In an economic climate when deserving
non-profit organizations are struggling for resources to operate, they do not
have the funds to produce a broadcast quality public service announcement to
raise awareness of their organization. It is this current lack of public
awareness that impacts both their ability to raise funds and to make the public
aware of their services. Media outlets that had once been able to both produce
and air public service announcements for free, no longer have the available
production resources or personnel to produce those PSA's. But there is a
resource that is going untapped. Local independent filmmakers have the skills to
produce original and imaginative short films and are looking to garner
professional credits for their resumes. The 7DAYPSA competition will bring
filmmakers and not-for-profits together to provide these deserving organizations
with a broadcast quality PSA and also a commitment from local media outlets to
air the spots. This is a real feel good competition. Additional competition
cities will be announced in January and the winners of each local "Best 7DAYPSA"
will compete for a "National Best 7DAYPSA." In addition, each PSA chosen for
broadcast will be eligible for submission by the 7DAYPSA for awards such as Emmy
and Telly Awards.

Our growing list of sponsors for the premier providence event includes:

Amped Graphic Design
Cox Media

G Media
OCD Associates

Hi!  How are you?  I know, right?

Just wanted to let you know about the new short film by Tasty Dude Films.  It's
a silent tragicomedy art-house black-and-white pretentious-fest "movie" in the
style of those films you didn't understand in Film Appreciation 101 but you
pretended you did anyway just to impress that girl that sat in front of you.

Anyway, here's the link: http://tastydudefilms.com/sourdough.html

Take it easy.  You work too hard.

Love,

Tasty Dude Films

in a restaurant. This is a non-paying gig, but i'm being told that this idea is
