Boston Movie Extra

Well it seems inch by inch Massachusetts is going to become a main stay for Hollywood. Our state politicans are pretty much going to approve these two studios from what I am seeing and hearing. The movement from local actors young and old, new and vets to bring this to reality is simply Awesome it shows unity:) We got fighter, Darkness, Brotherhoods, etc coming so let's get this hot Hollywood ball rolling because we want it and it shows!

It's amazing to see how dry things have been in the feature film biz here in Boston as of now. Because of that, I am sorry as I am not posting as much as I usually do because at the moment there really isn't that much to report. But with that being said that doesn't mean there is no work. Commercials, Industrials, small budget films are still out there so promote, promote, promote!!!! I will keep your eyes and ears open the moment news arrives.

I am hearing this morning that since AFTRA is getting things done with Hollywood, it looks as if SAG might follow suit and prevent a strike. If this happens all systems go for the roll of films to continue in MASS on schedule.

This was in todays paper and it looks pretty bleak for Mass. if there is a strike ahead. Here is the link. http://www.bostonherald.com/business/general/view/2008_06_20_Actors__strike_could_hurt_Mass__movie_biz/ Have a happy Holiday EVERYBODY!!!!! :)
