Nothing is more exciting than to hear about the success of Oregon filmmakers creating Oregon-made product. There are enormous hurdles along the way, and it is particularly onerous for independent producers of feature entertainment. Our hats are off to the productions that benefited from the Indigenous-OPIF this year, and the many more projects that are on their way.

OMPA has worked extremely hard to encourage budgeted projects among the indie community. Budgets require investment, and investment requires a disciplined strategy for returning investment with strategic plans for marketing and distribution. OMPA’s workshops on Northwest Film Financing educated over 100 filmmakers in each of 3 sessions last year, and contributed to a community dialogue to raise the business of storytelling to a new level.

OMPA’s submission, lobbying and successful passage of the bill that became iOPIF was another key element in support of cultivating an indigenous industry in Oregon.

Even if your job isn’t in feature entertainment, cultivating the industry in Oregon means more jobs, more business opportunities, and a more robust infrastructure for Oregon to participate in the national and international trade of content.

I remember a particularly prescient question raised at a film community night get-together a couple years ago: “Why do we have to wait for LA productions to fund projects for Oregonians to work on?”

With the help of independent producers including the Brothers Freeman and a host of others, not to mention our budding mini-majors at Chambers Communications and LAIKA, we won’t.

OMPA Welcomes Katy KolegoOMPA is proud to announce Katy Kolego as the Membership Associate

at OMPA. We are particularly pleased that in spite of the economy’s contraction, interest and activity in our industry, coupled with the value that OMPA offer its members, has resulted in projected membership growth to support a new position.

The Membership Associate’s job is to help guide new members into the association and introduce them to a network of people that will help them grow deeper roots in Oregon’s industry. Please take a moment to welcome Katy when you have the opportunity.

Indie Producer ResourcesWe are all working hard to turn our highly motivated indie producer scene in Oregon into a full-

fledged motion picture production powerhouse. Last year we re-configured the industry directory SourceOregon.com to highlight the resources to help make that happen.

Please see the “Stages & Studio Services” section of www.SourceOregon.com to find the best the local area has to offer in consultation on Marketing, Distribution, Finance, Legal, and Publicity. This is the list of resources as they are known to OMPA. If you have additional resources to share with fellow producers, please let OMPA know so that we might include them among those listed. It is our hope that by sharing business resources, we’ll be able to benefit from a finance and marketing community that is better educated and experienced at raising budgets and returns on investment.

Also, if you don’t know DP Lourds Ambrose you are missing out on a great resource. Lourdes is a DP with international experience who also works as consulting producer. As DP and Consulting Producer on the 2004 release “Thérèse: The Story of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux”, Lourdes helped see this low budget project become a multi-million dollar revenue generator. Lourdes works in LA and London, but is planting himself in Oregon to spend more time with his family. He is booking himself with indie products, so talk with him before he gets booked up.

The IOPIF Program Does Its Job – Funds Fully CommittedVince Porter, Oregon FilmIn the last few weeks there have been a number of

projects that have applied for the Indigenous Oregon Production Investment Program (iOPIF), and now all the available funds have been fully committed. In total 13 projects have been qualified for the program and projects have been produced or are set to be produced in the Portland area, Central Oregon and Ashland. The first project was the Brothers Freeman film “Wake Before I Die” back in January of this year. Next up was “The Wait” which was shot in Central Oregon in June/July. Recently “House of Last Things” was completed.

Next up are two more films from the Brothers Freeman, a horror film shot in Portland, a small feature set to film in Ashland, and six animation projects from a local animation company. When the program was created, I did not expect there to be more than 4-5 applications a year, but I’m thrilled to know that there are so many projects happening around Oregon. The program has also been successful in implementing best business practices for local low budget projects

Oregon Film Annual Meeting – December 17thMark your calendars… the Oregon Film Annual

Meeting will be held Friday, December 17th at 7:00PM. This year’s meeting will once again be a state-wide teleconference event thanks to the support of our friends in Bend, Eugene, and Ashland. The Portland location for the meeting will be Portland State University’s Lincoln Hall.

Attending for the last time as Governor, will be Governor Ted Kulongoski. We need a strong turnout to demonstrate our gratitude to the Governor for all he has done to support our industry. It will also be a great time to demonstrate the promise for the future of the Oregon Film and Video industry.

We will also be presenting the 2010 awards for “Innovation in Media Arts,” the “Film Advocate Awards,” and a newly created “Green Leadership Award” to recognize efforts taken toward sustainable business

practices and services that aid productions in being more environmentally friendly.

Following the meeting, each location will be holding their own party. In Portland, the OMPA will be hosting an industry celebration and holiday party at Portland’s City Hall. Let’s make the 17th a great night for everyone in Oregon’s Film and Video industry!

as all of these productions are required to be subject to specific rules (proper insurance, cast and crew payroll requirements, adhering to minimum wage rules).

A special note of thanks should be extended to Stan Roach of FOA in Bend who was able to get Senator Chris Telfer to introduce the iOPIF bill into the legislature, the OMPA and OPA who successfully lobbied for this program, and the entire legislature who supported the program. There is no doubt that in one year, iOPIF has accomplished what it was set to do.

Next year’s funds will become available in July when the OPIF program gets its annual allotment. One important note about the current situation is that all the projects are subject to a rigorous audit when they submit their paperwork. Once the audit is completed, on occasion new funds become available because the projects may not qualify for the reserved funds (based on spending in Oregon). If you have a project that could qualify for iOPIF, you should still contact our office to see if any funds do become available in the future.

MoshMedia Begins Major Studio Expansion, Hires Brian Bresinski as New Motion Designer

MoshMedia recently announced that the company is expanding its post-production facilities. Located in the central east side district in Portland, Oregon, MoshMedia has been in operation since 1999. With the completion of the expansion plan MoshMedia will be able to offer clients increased capabilities as well as gain in the number of projects the studio can manage simultaneously.

The expansion includes the addition of two new editorial suites. All MoshMedia editing rooms will be equipped with cutting-edge equipment and software. Clients can expect a surplus of additional services including visual effects, motion design, 3-D modeling, animation integration, color grading, stereoscopic 3D workflow, audio mixing, sweetening, recording, and a music library.

MoshMedia Editor/Owner Steve Wood has added Motion Designer, Brian Brezinski to his team. Brian has a BFA in Graphic Design from the Pacific Northwest College of Art and has been working in film and video production since 2005. Talented Motion Designers are

in high demand and Brian’s astute creativity, technical savvy, and ability to bring formerly static graphics to life has led to work with noteworthy clients such as Adidas, Danner Boots, Peter Jacobsen Sports, Toyota, and Grass Valley.

Brian is looking forward to his future with MoshMedia. “Teaming up with MoshMedia is exciting. It’s inevitable that I’ll learn great things from Steve Wood. We have some big guns in the visual eye-candy department and will hopefully create some waves.”

new liaison for the Mayor’s Office of Film & Video at the Portland Development Commission: Shelley Midthun!

Optic Nerve Strikes a Nerve for Travel OregonOptic Nerve Productions recently completed a series

of 10 short films for Travel Oregon and their fall Oregon Bounty campaign called “Wanderfeast.” This web-based campaign is designed to promote culinary tourism in Oregon.

Each of Wanderfeast’s ten short films features a different chef, food type and region from around the state. From the Painted Hills to the Oregon coast, our state is again leading the nation in combining tourism with the search for delicious food and drinks. Travel Oregon continues to win awards in the field and this year, the Oregon Bounty site was awarded Communication Arts “web pick of the week.”

After many years producing stories about sustainability, agriculture and food, Brian Kimmel (Director, DP and Editor) from Optic Nerve Productions was delighted to be able to showcase what is so attractive about Oregon. “Not only do we have beautiful locations and an unparalleled diversity of food available throughout the seasons, but the people who bring us these amazing food products are the most talented, passionate people I have ever worked with.”

The creative team behind the Wanderfeast project included the Oregon Bounty campaign manager Greg Robeson of Robeson Communications, Holly Macfee of Travel Oregon, and Brian Kimmel’s Optic Nerve Productions. Wieden + Kennedy provided graphic materials. During production, the location sound recordist was Jim Baer of Baersound. Tim Ellis composed and produced ten original music scores for each of the stories at his Portland studio, Kung Fu Bakery.

The Wanderfeast stories can be viewed online at http://food.traveloregon.com.

Our students ar etrained in all aspects

of production.

ASMP Members Show “For Love, Not Money”What happens when you ask professional

photographers what they do in their spare time? The answer for many is, they make more photographs. Some are compelled to follow an artistic vision that speaks in a very personal way. Others are passionate about following the causes that move them the most, using imagery as a way of giving back to their communities.

The personal work of many of ASMP’s 150+ commercial and editorial photographer members will be displayed as a group for the first time in this ground-breaking show. It is a unique coming together of Oregon’s professional photographic community with one of our most influential fine art photography venues. ASMP Oregon members will be present at the opening to discuss their work, as well as the state of the professional photographic industry in these time of unprecedented change.

The American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP) was founded in 1944 by a handful of the world’s leading photojournalists and is recognized internationally for its leadership and advocacy role among professional photographers. ASMP has over 5,000 members, including many of the world’s most well-respected photographers, in 40 chapters nationwide.

Rex Announces Brent Rogers as Account ExecutiveIn 2008, Brent Rogers brought 5.1 surround sound

mix engineering to REX’s Studio 1 as well as a new push for music recording in the Russ Berger designed facility. Brent and chief engineer Russ Gorsline mixed 27 episodes of “Drift Style” for Fusion Entertainment during the 2008-09 seasons for broadcast on Rush HD, the Burton Snow Board World Championships (winner Sean White) and Nike’s popular “Debacle” skate boarding video by director Jason Hernandez. During the same time period Brent recorded 10 songs for the Portland Trail Blazers using local talents: Storm Large, Curtis Salgado, Western Aerial, and Kleveland to name a few. Brent was the catalyst for turning the old Trail Blazer theme that had been in use since the mid 1970s into a multiple genre’ video experience, many of the game broadcast opener videos being shot at REX on the 21ft green screen.

In response to the ever changing media production market that requires the ability to wear more than one hat, Brent will be dividing his duties between audio engineering, sales. Brent explains, “I’ve been selling my own music production services for years, so it’s a natural transition to move into sales for REX.... and it’s an honor to be working with Russ and the crew at Portland’s oldest and most respected recording studio, especially now that REX has moved into the quietest building in the region.”

This year Brent, Russ and REX have worked on six feature films providing sweetening, SFX, VO, dialogue replacement and music scoring. Brent recorded the

guitar and vocal music for Episode 306 of TNT Leverage and provided engineering support during two days of filming at the studio. The Leverage crew turned REX into “Kirkwood Studio” for that episode directed by Jonathon Frakes. Brent worked on the feature “Train Master I” (2009) and has just finished sweetening the sequil film by Phil Bransom called “Train Master II, Jeremiah’s Treasure” (2010) and movies by Theresa Demarest “Keiko’s Legacy” (2010), and “Gray Area” (2010) by Exterior Films, winners of the NW Emerging Artist Competition at the Salem Film Festival 2010. Currently, Brent is working on sound design and music scoring of a new short film by Nicholas Mezzanotto and Joshua Ringle titled “Verdict” (2011) which stars Kristina Anapau.

If you haven’t had a chance to visit REX and get a surround sound demo in Studio 1, it’s a great time to contact Brent and set up a time to see the place and what REX can do for your media project. Welcome aboard Brent Rogers!

Things Flowing for Limbo Films The year continues to bring a steady flow of projects

and good fortune to Limbo Films.Last month we produced a national spot for

Chloraseptic and their New York based agency, Diehl and Associates on the snowy flanks of Mt. Hood. However, the snow was a combination real stuff that the Timberline Lodge crew pushed around for us with snow cats and convincing special effects helmed by Art Director David Sicotte and his amazing team. The :30 spot was directed and D.P.’d by Gary Nolton and featured all local Portland actors and crew. You can see many production stills on the Limbo Facebook page.

“Is anyone not ready?” Humble Reflections of a newbie extraby Mike Mittelstead, MetroPrint.netGreetings from your OMPA print vendor. As printer/

mailer of the “Call Sheet”, we have enjoyed reading about the inner circle of Northwest media production.

JustExtras recently put out a call for Italian cars to appear as “background” during local filming of a TV show. Seeking to replicate an Italian government building, producers selected the marble lobby of a historic theater. Curbside vehicles were potentially visible through glass doors during scenes shot inside the lobby. I was thrilled when my 1972 Fiat was selected.

As a bonus, I was called into a few scenes. My rosy cheeks and blue-eyes apparently didn’t fit profile of a Mediterranean local. So, was in group scenes and outside pedestrian traffic. Walk-by was far less physically demanding than a lobby scene which required re-sets of camera dollies and many retakes. Nearly two hours standing on marble floor!

Watching video production process was fascinating. Incredible video, sound, and lighting equipment. Enough firepower to fry a cat naked at 200 yards. Booms and cranes for different camera angles. You folks have some

Winter Classes Offered at Northwest Film CenterWinter is the perfect time to stay indoors to finish up

those film projects and the Northwest Film Center’s School of Film can help you get them done, whether you have one day or two months. If you are looking to brush up on your interview savy look no further than Art of the Interview, a workshop led by documentary filmmaker Brian Lindstrom (FINDING NORMAL, ALIEN BOY). This day-long session for film/videomakers, researchers, journalists, those interested in posting clips to websites, family historians, and others interested in professional interviewing techniques will examine the art and practice of the interview, providing an opportunity to actually conduct and critique interviews in class with guest subjects.

If you are looking to advance your animation skills, Oscar-winning inventor of Claymation Will Vinton’s Advanced Stop-Motion Class is for you. This course is the follow-up to Intro to Stop Motion/Claymation, which teaches the elements of character animation and fundamental technology and principles of pixilated (stop-motion) animation. In this rigorous hands-on class for the serious stop-motion animator/filmmaker, each student will develop, construct, and animate a one to two-minute, character-centric animated film, either solo or as part of a small team with compatible students. Other classes offered winter term include digital editing, screenwriting, lighting, and more. Register online today at nwfilm.org/school or walk-in, sign-up, that’s it.

cool toys!I was called out of extras holding area to move my car

as exterior lighting required. Which allowed lingering in background and observation of dozens of industry professionals behind the scenes. Always conscious of the need to blend into walls. Came away with great respect for long hours they work. And their ability to figure out what needs to be done on the fly.

12.5 hours on set for this humble “extra”. The pros were there when I arrived, and when I left. All were very helpful and pleasant to work with. Most impressively, the wranglers were conscious of giving all extras equal opportunity to be in scenes.

Compensation for bringing my Fiat 128 was reasonable. Otherwise, it woulda been a too-long day for too-little pay. Wonderful catered lunch of tri-tip made that better. I suspect primary motivation for most extras is the craft, and perhaps as an entry point to other “calls”. Recommend everyone add being an extra to their bucket list.

Extra thanks to Anami at JustExtras, the young PA on set, the wranglers, and a delightful wardrobe lady.

David Walker’s “My Dinner with A.J.” Sneak PreviewDavid Walker’s “My Dinner with A.J.” Sneak PreviewOn Thursday, December 2nd, at the Hollywood

Theatre, local filmmaker and writer David Walker will be hosting a sneak preview screening of his most recent film, “My Dinner with A.J.,” in conjunction with a fundraiser for Project Youth Doc.

Walker directed the film, and co-produced along with C.K. Lichenstein II and Alan Wone. Inspired by such independent films as “The Return of the Secaucus Seven” and “My Dinner with Andre,” “My Dinner with A.J.” finds two estranged friends (co-writers Walker and Wone) reuniting after ten years. As they begin to reveal personal truths about their experiences while waiting for dinner to arrive, their

friendship is put to the test. “The main goal,” said Walker “was to make a movie about a broken friendship that depicted African-American masculinity in a way seldom seen

in movies.”Proceeds from the screening will go to Project Youth

Doc, an intensive documentary training program for teenagers run by Film Action Oregon.

Dear Industry Members:

As you may know, the state of Oregon’s investment in growing the commercial, film and TV industry in Oregon is set to expire in 2012 if it is not renewed by the Legislature when they meet again next year. In order to put our best face forward, OMPA is organizing meetings for industry members to meet with their State Senator and State Representative in the next few weeks. Whether you are crew or cast from production, post-production or new media, or operate a hotel or any other business impacted by this growing industry, if you have a story to tell about how media production contributes to your success we invite you to participate.

If you are available for these meetings, please email Maile Coad with your contact information, and who your state legislators are (or your legislative House district), at [email protected].

More information about our legislative effort, including training documents and other handouts, are available at www.OMPA.org. If you would like to receive more regular information about growing jobs and business in Oregon and are not currently an OMPA member, please contact Katy Kolego for membership, at (503) 228-8822, or [email protected].

Thank you for your help.
