The Massachusetts Film Job Fair Last Week

I just read an article that the Ma film office offered a Film Job Fair last week in Boston, which I think is excellent! With the studio opening in Plymouth and the surge Ma will be getting in the coming years this is excellent news and should boost the economy. Foir those who attended what was your experience like, tell us about it.

Massachusetts Film Office losing money from potential strike!

A couple of days ago the head of the Ma Film Comission has indicated that the state is losing money from the potential SAG strike that is either happening or going to happen. He also stated that there are 5 films slated between May and August and possibly 12 ready to go when they get word. He also mentioned that there are plenty of scouting going on right now for these potential films. This obviously doesn't sound good (the losing money part) and is slowly killing work for everyone behind and in front of the camera. Let's hope that this strike if it happens is quick..

The SAG Wrap Party

Once again the annual Wrap party will be happening at the end of this month and if last year was any indication...it promises to be a blast. If you did not attend last year it is highly reccomended you do. The reason is it is for two reasons one for seeing friends again, and networking. So if you can make it, go before it sells out!

AVOID PROSCOUT!

I was in my car today and I noticed an ad for "proscout interviews" happening soon here in Ma. They are trying to tell people to come in for an interview with "america's top casting agents" This my friends is a scam...for those who remember Faces International this is by far no different. They will make you buy high cost pictures, classes, and much more. You can get a better education going to cp or boston casting for a far better price and from legit instructors. So if you know anyone that is going detour them from this.. It's like the old saying goes if it sounds to good..it probably is..
