A possibility of movie studios here in BOSTON! Too good to be true?!

When the news came out yesterday about movie moguls coming to beacon hill on the possibility of building a movie studio in Plymouth. I almost choked on my popcorn! I have heard this rumor here and there but I didn't really imagine it was going to happen. Guys, if this goes through this will be the beginning of something very special. Think about the work this will come to this state, this place will officially be "Hollywood East". Gone will be the days of "when will they film here in Boston" or " All the projects are going to Canada" . With the way things have been since last January were looking pretty good! So cross you fingers everybody and pray for the best. .

I knowww! I practically live in Plymouth so i'm super excited. So does this mean there will now be two movie studio complexes coming to MA, both in South Weymouth AND Plymouth?!

I think the Gov. Patrick really needs to push on this prospect even more than the Casino issue. It is a central location if they are filming further north (Vermont, Maine, etc.). We have great film schools in the area so the studios would get their pick fresh from college to intern for them, Weymouth is so close to Boston so if the big wigs feel they need to stay @ the Four Season's...it's not that far away as well as the airport. The basic infurstructure is already in place in Weymouth, not Plymouth, the former hangers that housed the airplanes are huge, several years back Reebock shot a commercial there so it really is an ideal location. Either community can benefit from the studio so let's keep our fingers crossed!!!!!

This is incredible!!! I live in Boston, and feel the usage of such a studio would/could be of a HUGE asset to my current independent project that I am filming.

Would like to know more information,though, about the usage of such a studio.

People agreeing to work and not showing up.

I was on a project yesterday (Mall Cop) which was a nice experience and worked with nice people. What amazed some people is that there were a few no-shows, what I had said to them is don't be too surprised because this happens more than you think. When that happens that screws a lot of people up first the production because they are expecting their numbers for that day, and people that actually wanted to work that day. So if you can't make it on that project for any reason please call the casting director the day prior so they can fill in your spot. It's the best thing you can do in that situation to still be good with the casting directors and the production.

Are future films in jeporady because of looming strike?

That is a question really no one knows and is asked quite often. If there is a strike and it does last as long as the writers strike does, that will be a problem. But let's hope everything gets resolved by next month so the ongoing traffic of movies continues here in our very cool state. strike,

Portions of the SAG strike my be resolved sooner than later.

What I have heard as of late is that the upcoming strike might not be as long as some people are projecting. Certain aspects have already been cleared. So, with that being said it might no be as long as a process as the previuos writers strike. I think that strike did so much damage that SAG probably does not want to go down that road but we will see.
