Pancake in a Can “Everybody Can Save A Life!” Video Contest. MatchingDonors.com is asking the public to help raise awareness about being a living organ donor on MatchingDonors.com through their Everybody Can Save A Life Video Contest! This contest will also get the entrant’s videos before Hollywood’s top decision makers, producers, and studio executives. Winners will receive cash prizes as well as the opportunity to work with these top people in Hollywood as Assistant Producers on a television show or movie, or even Assistant Produce an iPhone social game with the creator of Xbox Live. (See extensive information at www.matchingdonors.com/life/pdfdocs/Contest.pdf ). The contest, which accepts entries through Tuesday, September 13, 2011 and votes on video submissions until Saturday, October 1, 2011 asks participants to make a 30-second video that promotes, celebrates, or teaches about being a living organ donor on MatchingDonors.com. The creative approach you take on this assignment is at your discretion. A serious approach could be taken to highlight the noble heroism and compassion of persons who willingly and altruistically donate a piece of themselves to save lives. On the other hand, a funny approach could also be taken to highlight the lighter side of living organ donation. For instance, what humorous things could happen to a person who’s trying to donate an organ? How does missing an organ change a person’s attitude in a humorous way? While the creative direction you choose is up to you, be mindful that MatchingDonors.com wants these videos to serve effectively as Public Service Announcements (PSAs). So they should represent the process of organ donation in a positive manner.

For PC&E, Accessorizing is Key PC&E’s new and improved digital camera prep room is on its way, more than tripling the existing space and adding three prep benches to create a state of the art room. The Easyrig 3 700N is perfect for the ARRI Alexa. It is a stabilizing camera support that wraps around the user’s hips and extends over the head. The overhead support arm supports weights from 33-44 lbs. The ergonomically designed Easyrig 3 distributes the camera’s weight to the hips and legs, reducing the static load on the neck and shoulder muscles. The Tyler Mini Gyro System is useful when space and weight limits make the use of a full size Tyler Mount impossible. The Mini Gyro can be handheld or used in helicopters, airplanes, cars, trucks and motorcycles with film or video cameras. The base of the gyro platform incorporates a shock absorber to minimize bounce. The quick release camera platform has a tilt feature to allow for comfortable operation at extreme tilt angles. In June, Guenter Noesner from ARRI presented an overview of the ARRI Alexa. These cameras have taken the market by storm and Guenter discussed the camera capabilities and talked about upcoming upgrades. When dressing up your camera, accessorizing is key. PC&E adds the Top Mount Accessory Cheese Plate from Berkey Systems to its Sony F3 cameras. The plate mounts to the two existing 1/4-20 holes on the camera body and allows easy access to all of the camera control buttons. There are sixteen 1/4-20 and six 3/8-16 tapped holes for mounting accessories. Additionally, they have outfitted their four Sony PMW-F3 cameras with a Denz Support that screws into both 1/4-20 threads on the bottom of the camera and attaches to standard bridgeplates. The Denz Support also acts as a riser plate to provide the exact height needed for mattebox, follow focus, motors and other professional accessories on both 19mm and 15mm rods.

commissioner of the Georgia Department of Economic Development. State officials estimate the entertainment industry had a $2.1 billion impact on Georgia during the first 10 months of fiscal year 2011. A major force in bringing increased production activity in recent years was the 2008 Georgia Entertainment Industry Investment Act, which provides a 30% tax incentive to major projects. The economic impact of the state’s production activity increased 440% since the tax breaks took effect, moving Georgia into the top five states for film and TV production. The first 10 months of fiscal 2011 saw more than 274 productions shot in Georgia, bringing more than $589.2 million in investment across the state. Georgia’s first film with a $100 million budget was shot in Conyers: “Fast Five,” the Vin Diesel action film that continues “The Fast and the Furious” series. Major productions in recent months include the latest “X-Men” and “American Pie” sequels; new seasons of TV series on vampires and zombies; and the remake of “Footloose,” shot in several counties around Atlanta. “Fast Five” did not spend all $100 million here as it was only partially shot in Georgia. As impressive as those names and numbers are, the real impact of those film and TV productions is seen in the towns and cities across the state, from the metropolitan Atlanta area to Savannah on the east coast and Valdosta to the south. We talked with several local film office officials to get a better idea of how Georgia’s expanding production industry affects their communties.

Clayton County Oﬃce of Economic Development

Grant Wainscott, Like many parts of Georgia, Clayton County traces its entertainment production roots to Burt Reynolds’ “Smoky and the Bandit” films in the 1970s. Grant Wainscott said it was 25 years later before the next major came through: “We Are Marshall,” which shot its football scenes in Jonesboro. “We didn’t have any special permitting process then,” he recalled, and filmmakers “shot in random places.” But Clayton opened a film office in early 2010 and is now “Camera Ready.” “We have processes in place. We work with film scouts to

Director Clayton County Film, Sports & Entertainment Oﬃce

However, Wainscott continued, “If you don’t have the manpower, the education, and the trained electricians, supply houses, catering -- all the services the film industry requires – if you don’t have that, then it can be enough of a disincentive that the incentives may not be valuable anymore.” He said Georgia has been “leading the way, making sure we have enough consultants and scene scouts and supply houses and trained people in the industry from camera operators and boom operators. Our inventory and our work force have dramatically increased, and that has made all the difference.” He noted that more Georgians are coming back home to work, after many years of chasing production work around the county. “Hopefully as more stages and more facilities come here, that work will continue to increase.” Wainscott said local leaders are working to establish a studio at Clayton-owned Tara Field in adjacent Henry County, where “we’ve had a temporary studio set up in a few of the hangars.” Wainscott continued, “There are only going to be so many studios that the state can support right now, so it’s important not to overbuild and to decentralize the effort. I don’t know if we need major stages in every region of the state, but it’s important to keep a good emphasis on the metro Atlanta area.” He said a number of films choose Clayton as their headquarters because it is centrally located to downtown, to Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, and to the major studios: Raleigh Studios in Senoia and EUE/Screen Gems Studios in south Atlanta.

We can provide a rapid response to any request the film industry has, which has spawned a lot more opportunities for us.” Wainscott pointed out a number of recent productions in Clayton County: Disney’s “The Odd Life of Timothy Green,” which filmed in Rex; “Joyful Noise” at Clayton State University and Morrow; “Terminal” in College Park; “Field of Vision,” an NBC movie/pilot previously known as “The Magic Eye;” and several Tyler Perry movies that used a Clayton hospital. “The economic incentives are the primary reason we’re actively recruiting,” he said. “Without the incentives, you can kiss the film industry in Georgia goodbye. It’s just the environment we live in: there are a lot of states that would love to have this business.”

Film and TV production is important to the region’s economy, he said. The industry supplies jobs to local actors, and it sustains a local firm that rents equipment to productions. “We just landed a major film industry company that leases light and sound equipment from outside the state which has leased significant space in our county,” he added. Looking towards the future, Wainscott said Clayton is working with four films; two major movies, one television show and one industrial shoot. “We’re grateful to be in the mix.”

Pam Mayer,

Director of Event Services

“Georgia is the second Hollywood,” said Pam Mayer of Coweta County. Over the past 10 years, 40 films have been shot in Coweta County, including eight since the county was designated “Camera Ready.” Three more films scouted in Coweta late this spring. Coweta was among the first 16 counties included when the Camera Ready program began in 2010. “Being Camera Ready has been a huge incentive and has greatly helped our program,” Mayer said. Coweta is home to Raleigh Studios, formerly Riverwood Studios, in Senoia, but that’s only one reason so many productions come to the county seeking locations. “We’re part of the Atlanta region and we’re close to the airport,” Mayer said, “but we’re unique because we are still largely rural.” Recent TV projects for Coweta include the “Drop Dead Diva” series (which also films in Peachtree City) and a second season of AMC’s “The Walking Dead.” The remake of “Footloose” used the Senoia Raceway as a location, while a historic Coweta home was used in “The Odd Life of Timothy Green.” The county also hosted “Joyful Noise” starring Queen Latifah and Dolly Parton. Also, “The Wettest County in the World” set up production headquarters in a vacant school building. Mayer said Coweta sees a “full circle” of economic impact from production work. At the beginning, location scouts explore the county, eating meals and buying gasoline. Later the location manager and the director may come. “Then if we land the movie,” she continued, “the location crew may spend the night or stay for several months, shopping and eating and adding to the economy.” Projects also provide jobs for locals who work as extras. And when the movie comes out, the increased interest means more tourism: “Fans of the movies and TV shows want to see where they were filmed.” She added Coweta has seen that impact from “Driving Miss Daisy,” “Fried Green Tomatoes,” “October Road” and “Zombieland,” among others. She added the community is creating a brochure for tourists that shows locations for movies and TV series. Like other Camera Ready communities, Mayer said, the CVB and the Chamber of Commerce serve as a central information resource. They can provide forms to get county and municipal clearance for works; obtain land plats; obtain permission to use a church; streamline utility hookups; or figure out what parts of the county are in the no-fly zone for the Atlanta airport. “We’ve had three movies scouting us at one time,” Mayer noted. “We give them the resources and information. Then we step aside and let them do what they need to do when they’re here.”

Director of Tourism

Newton County knows the lasting impact that filming can have on a community. “More than 30 years later, we still have visitors who come here because of the ‘Dukes of Hazard’,” said Clara Deemer. The first five episodes of the classic TV series were filmed in Covington; it was Hazard County. In the same vein, “In the Heat of the Night” filmed in Covington for eight years, “and we still get out-of-state fans visiting because of that show,” Deemer added.

study by the University of Tennessee that found each citizen in Newton County saved $139 on their property tax bill because of visitors coming to the community. Also this summer in Newton, ﬁlming began on “American Reunion,” the latest “American Pie” movie. Newton County High School is “where a lot of the action takes place,” Deemer said. With production work taking place during the school‘s summer break, “the board of education appreciates the extra income this will generate. You never know what part of your local economy will be aﬀected in positive way.”

The biggest impact in recent years is “The Vampire Diaries,” which began filming its third season in Newton County this Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle summer. “They’ve had such a great impact Stop Cafe in Juliette, Georgia on our community,” Deemer said. “They eat Other recent productions include “Footloose” at our restaurants, buy from our hardware stores, rent tents (which filmed at the county courthouse) and a Dick Van Dyke and contribute to local charities.” She said one small made-for-TV film titled, “The Magic Eye” (now known as “Field businessman says his company would have gone under, if of Vision”). Deemer added, “We’re not star-struck, but we enjoy not for the production company renting tents, tables, seeing them film in our town. They use local people as extras, chairs and other items from his firm. “They’re glad to be police get extra overtime; and when “Halloween II” was here, part of our community, and we appreciate their they rented vacant office space that was not being used.” contributions to the local economy.” Like other communities, Newton County is a “big proponent “Some people in the community don’t realize how much of the economic incentives,” Deemer said. “If not for the tax tourism is helping them,” Deemer said. “But the more visitors we incentives, they (filmmakers) would not be here.

Tyra Howard,

Director of Tourism & Film

“Zombies were everywhere” during the filming of the Woody Harrelson-Jesse Eisenberg horror/comedy “Zombieland,” said Tyra Howard. And the movie was “really good for us. It brought in about $375,000.” Having a movie in your community is good for creating jobs, Howard said, noting the production hired local extras. “They were here six to eight weeks, so that’s additional dining, shopping and so forth that Lowndes County benefited from.” Howard said the producers selected the Valdosta area so they could film the climatic “Pacific Playland” theme park scenes at the Wild Adventures amusement park. The movie was good for Wild Adventures because “it was shot during their off-season, so they were able to rent the park out,” she noted. The movie probably increased visitation to Wild Adventures, Howard added: “Being where a movie was shot is popular.” Other scenes were shot at locations such as a Cracklin’ Goods warehouse. “They were definitely in our community -- not just at the theme park,” she noted. Rumors of a “Zombieland 2” continue to circulate throughout the industry. Howard said Valdosta is waiting just like everyone else to see if the movie happens – and if so, whether Lowndes County will be involved again. Currently, the county is hosting shooting on “My First Sale”, a reality TV show for HGTV. The series focuses on first-time home sellers. Howard said, “They are following a single parent who is selling her home and moving to Valdosta with her son.” The woman is going back to school and will attend Valdosta State University in the fall. “They followed her while she looked for a home here and filmed her on campus,” Howard added. “They’re going to follow her through her journey through school. Even before “Zombieland,” Valdosta and Lowndes County hosted a number of productions. The Crescent, one of the area’s historic homes, was the main setting for a 1986 Jamie Lee Curtis TV movie, “As Summers Die”. Other local productions include the Burt Reynolds action picture “Gator” in 1975 and 1973’s “Never Trust An Honest Thief.” Howard said a local man has written a film and hopes to shoot locally in 2012. In the meantime, she continues to answer queries from scouts and work on additional deals. “I’m honored they are looking at our area,” she said. “We know that at some point, we will get something more out of all this.”

City of Savannah/ Chatham County

Jay Self,

Film Services Director

“I still have people stop me on the street who don’t know who I am and ask me, ‘Where’s the ‘Forrest Gump’ bench?’,” laughed Jay Self of Savannah, referring to the opening “life is a box of chocolates” scene of the Tom Hanks film. “I don’t know how you definitively value the long-term effect of that kind of exposure. It’s 18 years later and people are still asking questions about the bench.” Self said the Savannah Film Office was formed in Chatham County 16 years ago “ because of problems caused by the filming of ‘Forrest Gump’. Savannah has enough activity to support a film office. Certain ingredients are needed for a place to have sustained business like this.” Over the years, “Forrest Gump” is one of the films that still impacts people’s e Last Song shot on Tybee Island - Savannah, GA decisions to visit the Savannah area, Self said. The “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil” franchise – which was a highly successful book before becoming a Clint Eastwood film – is another that continues to pay dividends. Another is Robert Redford’s “The Conspirator,” he continued. “It is a strong calling card to those interested in history, politics, the Civil War. They’ll see how beautiful Savannah is. It will be a specific draw to an educated, affluent, traveling audience.” Another recent movie that helped the Savannah region is “The Last Song,” the 2010 Disney film starring Miley Cyrus which was filmed on Chatham County’s Tybee Island. Self noted “The Last Song” came out “in the depths of recession”

OZ MAGAZINE www.ozmagazine.com

in 2010 when “tourism and every other sector was on a steep decline.” After the film was released, Tybee tourism jumped. “Instead of suffering that summer as so many did, they had their best year ever.” “2010 was a banner year for tourism on Tybee Island,” agreed Lindsay Fruchtl, marketing director for the Tybee Island Tourism Council. She pointed to statistics that show Tybee Island’s hotel/motel tax revenue jumped from $1.38 million in 2009 to $1.7 million in 2010. The 23% increase made 2010 the most profitable year for Tybee tourism. “The increased visitation seen in 2010 on Tybee can be attributed to a variety of factors,” Fruchtl said, “but people must know about the destination in order to visit. Much of the success of 2010 can be attributed to increased awareness and visibility of Tybee Island. Whether it is online exposure, editorial, partnerships with Savannah or even on the big screen in ‘The Last Song’, Tybee Island received excellent exposure in 2010.” The Savannah Film Office’s regional approach goes beyond Tybee Island 15 minutes away. Self said “X-Men First Class,” the latest “X-Men” movie, “didn’t film in Chatham County but our office recruited that project,” which ended up shooting on Jekyll Island. “The project had a large regional impact,” he noted. “They didn’t shoot one frame in Chatham County, but the economic impact on our community was well over $2 million on that film.” He said the production obtained crew, services and goods from Savannah that were not available in Brunswick. There are currently two features underway in Savannah. Self said the economic impact of production work was $23.5 million in 2009 and $9.8 million in 2010. Self says Savannah continues to see many projects scouting the area. However, the nature of development “has changed with the economic incentives,” he explained. In the past, “ projects usually wouldn’t scout until they had their funding in place; now determining the location is part of their pitch. So we work on a larger number of projects that may never get made.” He added, “More prospects are going through the location decision process at an earlier stage in their life. So we’re closing deals before the client has a green light.” Since Savannah is a smaller metropolitan area than Atlanta, Self says, “Our crew base is not as deep as the Atlanta area. But the crews that we have are seasoned professionals that do work all over the country.” Like officials in many communities, Self said Savannah crews are glad they now have more work closer to home. “In the late 90s, we had a rapidly growing crew

base. Then, with the Louisiana incentives, that shifted so much work to Louisiana, some of our crew base moved to Louisiana. The Louisiana crews at that time included many transplants from North Carolina and Georgia.” Now that production is increasing, he added, “The challenge is to keep that balance of available work and available workers at a sustainable level so you’re not always in this cycle of expansion and contraction.” While Savannah had a film office long before Camera Ready, it continues working closely with the state office, Self said. “Our goal is to get projects as close to Savannah as we can. We never saw ‘X-Men’ choosing Jekyll Island as a loss. We saw that as a victory because they came to Georgia. “Every project that comes to Georgia benefits every community in Georgia. Even if they’re not actually filming there, it spreads across the state. It lifts the entire state.”

ave you ever been watching an old car chase movie and thought to yourself “Gee, there sure are a lot of skid marks right there…” just as the good guy’s car fishtails its way onto the asphalt exactly where you spotted the skid marks? Until the advent of computer graphics technology, long black trails of rubber were a thorn in the side of action film editors. These days you can hire a skilled computer artist to erase all those pesky skid marks over a long lunch. I personally never gave car chase skid mark continuity a thought until working 2nd unit with my prop master friend Joe Connolly on a wreck of a movie named “Black Dog,” back in 1997. Our job on that film was simple: personal props and vehicle props. The personal props were easy, just catch a stuntman on his way to the stunt vehicle and give him a watch, a ring, maybe some glasses or a gun… you know, little stuff. The vehicles were more difficult. There were seven different Trans-Ams on 2nd unit, all of them painted to look like the hero vehicle, but made especially to accomplish different stunts. I believe there were three different rigs for the giant hero Peterbilt tractor (four rigs, if you count the special rig used by 1st unit) and several multiples for other cars and trucks seen throughout the movie. Our transportation department was a regular parking lot due to all the stunt vehicles they had to shuttle from set to set. Annoyingly, the stunt guys all seemed to know the different rigs by sight (since they drove and developed them), but it wasn’t quite as easy for Joe and I. It seemed like we were always running back and forth between Trans-Ams trying to figure out which one was “number 3” so we could jam the one and only CB radio unit that we’d been

given onto the hump in the floorboard in the front seat, then run around to the back and bolt on a license plate. For reasons that continue to baffle me, Raffaella De Laurentiis spent incalculable sums of money on that cursed project trying to buy her way back into Hollywood, but the art department wouldn’t buy us six more freakin’ CB radios to put into the other cars. It’s as if they wanted to ensure that there might be continuity errors in the picture . . .

Which brings me back to those skid marks. Imagine, if you will, a long straight stretch of county road thirty miles east of Atlanta. A blue Trans-Am hauls ass, leaving distinct black curlicues on the pavement. The 2nd unit director calls “Cut!” and the 1st AD calls the on-set painter over the walkie. A minute later an old white Suburban rolls up to the trail of rubber, a slight man in his 50s climbs out, opens up the back doors of the truck and pulls out a can of latex house paint. He pries open the can and begins pouring a puddle of paint directly onto the road like it was something that he does all the time. After a few seconds he stops pouring and begins diligently spreading the puddle out along the 30-foot long skid mark with his paint roller. It was absolutely unbelievable. Beside me, Joe muttered something under his breath and looked away in frustration. Time seemed to stop. Jaws hung agape. The only noise in the world was the high pitched squeal of a paint roller echoing across the asphalt as sixty people stood watching one sad little man slowly pushing a stick down the highway.

The expression on every crewmember’s face framed the same question: “This was a big budget stunts movie? This was the height of our technological sophistication? A little man with a stick???” Every person watching this scene unfold had already started drawing up mental plans for a spray rig hooked up to a truck bumper and was wondering why the paint department hadn’t provided exactly that sort of modern convenience for the little old painter, who was slowly rolling his little grey heart out along the asphalt while swarms of hundred dollar bills with little flappy wings battered the air around the pro“This was ducer’s head. Unable to watch any more of this, Joe sighed and said “I know I’ll be sorry for saying this but come on, let’s go help him.”

swapping black rubber for the really light grey of the latex house paint.

By the end of the mountain sequence we were into true winter temperatures and half the production crew had been employed as skid mark painters. It didn’t matter because the paint was freezing on the road instead of drying, creating greater a big budget hazards for the stunt guys on the twisty mountain roads north of stunts movie? Helen. I developed a really nasty This was the height cold and can’t remember the last time we helped paint the highway, of our technological which suits me just fine.

sophistication? A little man with a stick???”

And so, for the next 2 or three months, in between the requirements of our own job, we ended up helping the painter paint out skid marks. I sacrificed 6 pairs of jeans, a dozen shirts and at least one good jacket to those cursed black trails of rubber. The funniest part was that the light grey color of the paint was just as obvious as the skid marks… we were just

To this day I still look for skid marks in movies but I find them less and less because they can now pay a perky computer artist to paint them out with her stylus while she drinks a latte and thinks about what color she’s going to paint her bedroom.

It’s ironic.

Though human beings have been telling (and listening to) stories for millennia, few today can identify the basics of effective storytelling. We may know and feel a good story when we hear it and/or see it, but when called upon, many people are unable to create a cohesive path for a successful, multi-dimensional story experience. This is an obvious problem for the

media explosion we’re all in, and we see the bad results all around us. Now that many more people in many parts of media, marketing, advertising, entertainment, science, politics and virtually any industry are using story-asmessage-vehicle, story know-how is a critical though missing, misunderstood or misapplied skill.

A high concept story idea, like a movie and a company, can be (and should be) explained in one sentence.

As we said before, we live in a transmedia world, a multiplatform, socially and digitally interconnected environment, where words, pictures, symbols and stories can be expanded, open-sourced, re-framed and re-arranged to engage new audiences in many new and potentially integrated ways, on-air, online and on-the-go. Various broadcast, web, mobile, app, tablet, game, print, radio and alternative digital platforms that are normally considered individually all can be interconnected and interwoven to creatively activate people across so-called digital divides. But so what. Because while many millions are clearly using and adept with multiple technologies, few people know what story to tell or how to tell it. So how should we be thinking about and planning a Transmedia story? Or any story for that matter? These notes, basics and raw story-telling essentials, some from my film school days, all remain clearly relevant guide points for effective storytelling in a transmedia environment. Because regardless of the multiplicity of angles, audiences, viewpoints and technologies, the core elements of a good story always resonate with us on multiple levels. These are the primary essences as they relate to transmedia, weaving multiple platforms and paths from a central, appealing theme. A high concept story idea, like a movie and a company, can be (and should be) explained in one sentence. Selling transmedia, brand or movie ideas is difficult and complex , but it’s far easier when you can clearly articulate the central premise in one sentence. Distill your theme down so it becomes a simple, one sentence statement.

Start strong. The opening of any story should suggest your central theme and prompt intrigue. Think of the beginning as a big bang, driving energies and elements outwards in multiple directions, allowing an idea to explode outward, gaining force and energy as it reveals itself.

Every good story has a beginning, a middle, and an end. Whether working out the broad concept of a new story,

figuring out the particulars of a video, film, brand or presentation, or editing a story in post-production, your efforts should always be directed toward establishing and reinforcing a three-act structure. And specifically, three acts allow complex cross-media stories to balance from a familiar, cross-platform story structure proven and embraced over many centuries of storytelling. Act 1: Establish the problem. Show the ordinary world of the protagonist, introduce the inciting incident that disrupts it, and make the stakes clear and compelling should the protagonist fail. Act 2: Complicate the problem. The conflict grows deeper and broader, and the initial response by the protagonist proves inadequate. Act 3: Resolve the problem. Events reach their inevitable climax and resolution. (Note: in transmedia and serialized storytelling, these scripted resolutions and climaxes merely serve as book ends to a chapter or storyline, allowing a range of subsequent plot and character extensions, interludes, and universe explorations to be bolted on and extrapolated.)

Show, don’t tell.

Almost anything that needs to be communicated about a story, its theme and its characters is better shown than explained. Especially today, as our attention spans have been reduced to milliseconds, and we’re swimming in hyper realism and dimensional effects, visuals, when creatively conceived, demonstrate. And they reveal aspects like the unseen - psychology, histories, conflicts and emotions far better than direct explication will. If you show it rather than tell it, you deliver information faster, and leave time for more important things. Like deeper engagement and interest.

Reveal, follow and stay close to the action. Audiences want action, and they want to be as close as

possible to it and the emotion, sense and movement that close encounters deliver. Audiences don’t like to feel like they’re observing from the cheap seats. Give them an optimal view by placing, moving and zooming into the zone of action, and ensuring that there’s some kind of significant movement revealed in the story.

Acting speaks louder than words. Emerson once said, “Your actions are speaking so loudly

that I can’t hear what you’re saying.” People (and companies) are revealed more by what they do than say. Our words often belie our true intent and feelings, and a good story considers these contradictions and complexities. Contradictions in human behavior can be used to enhance a story. A strong character with receding body language, an accommodating person with her arms folded, and a truth teller who blinks a lot can all reveal crucial truths underneath the surface. Interesting and active wins the day.

Life is four-dimensional. It’s an easy mistake to limit one’s thinking and conceive

of a story as a linear and uni-directional path. But the inclusion of a 3d map charting narrative flows and cross-technologies, foreground and background elements, and characters and their evolving challenges and traits provides spatial references and narrative depth for a centrally-conceived transmedia story environment. Seeing the transmedia story as an ecosystem provides a realistic topography for planning, expanding and extending.

Every scene in a transmedia story must contain conflict, and every scene must reveal new information. Stories and films exist because of problems, conflicts

and the opportunities for drama, resolution, new understandings, humor and tragedy. Every scene in a story even apparently innocuous ones of blissful courtship innocent childhood play need to contribute to the building and intensifying of the conflict. The discord can be modest, overt, embedded in the subtext, sweet or funny. But it’s got to be there, and defined as an element. And every scene or story path must contain a revelation of previously unknown information. It should be specific, objective information.

Have a plan but enjoy and make the most out of the detours. Transmedia storytelling, like film-making, is a complex endeavor calling for detailed plans and outlines, storyboards, shot lists, character sketches, technology architecture, coding and more. It’s too complex even for the best conceived plan to hold up the whole way through. So remain fluid. Engage in trial and error. Make room for unexpected interpretations and paths, and include members of your team in the working out of the plots and twists. Turn accidents into possibilities.

A flawed protagonist is more compelling than a perfect protagonist. Animation provides an Inexperienced storytellers may fail to imbue a protagonist with undesirable traits because they want opportunity to think him or her to appear likeable and their cause noble. But a perfect, completely capable hero leads an audiexpansively, not expensively. ence to relax its attention. If he or she can handle Animation can tell any story or have characters do anything, why worry or be interested? Audiences are usually fascinated by contradictions, flaws and shortcomings in a story’s characters. The idiosyncrasies and failings we all have are even more compelling in a character that’s otherwise heroic. (This same rule applies to brands. When brands reveal their own weaknesses, and work to be more transparent and approachable, customers consistently reveal they’re more inclined to trust the company. We all make mistakes. The difference lies in how we deal with them that allows others to engage more multi-dimensionally and honestly.)

anything imaginary without the budgetary and physical constraints of live-action. And it offers the possibility of telling transmedia stories with an available visual nomenclature that can be extended, scaled, rendered and re-applied across the media eco-system. At time and costs often much less than live-action.

Be ruthless in editing. “Perfection is achieved, not when there’s nothing more

to add, but when there’s nothing left to take away.” Make it shorter. No mater how clever or insightful you think a page, a scene, an element, a setting, or a line, subject it to deep scrutiny. Is it necessary to the story an its movement. Does it prepare the audience for what comes next, or does it describe the conflict? If you’re unsure, it probably isn’t needed. Leave it out. Ultimately, everything must serve to advance the plot and inform the audience on the characters and theme(s). Words and actions that don’t serve these ends, no matter how clever, funny or insightful, should almost always be excised. The challenge for writers and communicators seeking to leverage the opportunities employing a multi-dimensional approach is to think of a story as an eco-system, and overcome the urge to stick with older, linear story-telling and media models. Consider and think of audiences as the real writers, creators, publishers and content producers. We’re all activated and interacting, and audiences want to do more - and while just by virtue of their interactions, they also in may cases want to add to and multiply the story. Effective communicators must consider themselves as the editors and guides under a new democratic, open-source story model that is multiauthored. Such a model invites, extends and expands organically. Doing so provides a dimension and vitality our new brains crave.

By considering storytelling using both traditional and Transmedia methods, the ability to reach new individuals and new groups on unprecedented levels

is not only achievable but repeatable.

Where gelato, tacos, all in

can you find Po’ Boys, southern inspired Korean BBQ, soups, tamales, cupcakes hot dogs, burritos, sliders and more... one place? On an Atlanta city street.

The street food industry is catching on in our city, slowly growing into a vibrant movement for foodies and non-foodies alike. Many of our local trucks are already becoming veterans of the street movement; Souper Jenny, Yumbii, Westside Creamery, The Good Food Truck, The Pickle, The Pup Truck, Sweet Auburn Barbecue. Newcomers like Honeysuckle Gelato and Just Loaf ‘N, are being added to the mix constantly! The food truck movement is spearheaded by the Atlanta Street Food Coalition (ASFC), a not-for-profit organization, with one mission: bringing Atlanta’s thriving restaurant community into the streets via food carts and trucks. Furthering the cause of the food truck world is Greg Smith, local attorney, co-owner of the Westside Creamery food truck and president of the ASFC. He is focused on improving the business environment for street food in the Atlanta area and has been instrumental in helping the industry continually smooth out the wrinkles. The regulatory environment is difficult in the metro area and the ASFC is working to resolve some of the major issues they are facing, to keep the food truck industry alive and intact.

Many obstacles have been overcome recently as the food truck movement has taken on a life of its own. There is new legislation going through soon, which will affect the food industry’s regulations. Smith says, “The next hurdle for food trucks will be a lack of moderately priced kitchen space. The trucks will be required to operate from a fixed kitchen, and that requirement is very difficult to meet without a substantial investment.” Also in the mix of food grumblings are the restaurants who feel the food truck businesses may take away from their clientele and shed a bad light on the food culture in Atlanta. Smith’s response to this is that food trucks and restaurants are in two different worlds. If folks want a sit down meal, they are not going to opt for a food truck instead. He thinks that the fears of cannibalism are more theoretical than practical. With that said, the ASFC is taking steps to avoid some of the bad behavior that has plagued food trucks in other cities. They are focused solely on winning the right to operate freely on private property in the city of Atlanta. Because of this, it is highly unlikely that the trucks will be able to pull up in front of an establishment, block access to their front door, and steal customers off the street. Best thing we all can do? Get out there and support your local food trucks, by dining al fresco!

Lionel Fla x , Gener a l M a n a ger & Ow ner of S a m Fl a x A rt “On Friday nights, we really dig going to Northside Tavern for live, raw, soulful Blues music by some of the best and underrated musicians and artists. But maybe that’s why we love Blues musicians so much; they’re not in it for the fame. It’s a hidden gem that you think was plucked from New Orleans but lives in Atlanta. The age group and demo is so diverse which is awesome and you’re always made to feel like home.”

There are several reasons to give Toscano & Sons five stars: fresh imported ingredients, cooking classes, a wine-club, the service, and the panini! Toscano’s panini’s are made out of the best artisanal breads, cheeses, meats, and condiments. While you are waiting on your panini, take the time to browse the imported goods. They have a great selection of meats and cheeses, homemade pastries and cookies, fresh pastas and breads, oils, spices, and vinegars. Just the way mama would have made it!

Stephen Kir k patrick , Pr od uction Consulta nts & Eq uipment The closest restaurant to the DeFoor Hills complex is Hankook Taqueria. Hankook Taqueria is the brain child of Thomas Lee, who in 2010 took over the former Good Eats restruant space on Collier Road. The simple, yet quirky menu features Korean style BBQ tacos and has quickly become one of our favorite lunch spots. Another favorite of the PC&E staff is the Bone Garden Cantina, which can be found in the Lumber Yard complex off of Ellsworth Industrial Boulevard. The Bone Garden Cantina was developed by one of the co-owners of the Vortex and has a similar decorative flare. It has become a PC&E favorite due to its a la carte menu featuring burritos, empanadas, tacos and tortas.

how i got into the business

GET LISTED in the 2012 Georgia Film, Video & Digital Entertainment Sourcebook

Margaret Anthony

Senior Writer/Producer - CNN

What do you do all day? I develop promotional campaigns for CNN shows – right now for Anderson Cooper 360 and Piers Morgan Tonight. Some projects are one-day turnarounds; some involve full-scale concepting, pitching and production. How did you get into the Business? My first job out of college was at WVUE-TV, Channel 8 in New Orleans, the ABC affiliate. My stepfather knew the general manager, which got my foot in the door for an interview – but not much else. After 4 pleasant years as a Tulane English major, I was not all that prepared for the pace and constant deadlines. My boss was a loud, larger-than-life local legend. I’ve read somewhere that he was the inspiration for Ron Burgundy in the movie “Anchorman”, but who knows. One night, I was the only one in the newsroom and the boss called – angry about something he’d just seen on air. When I couldn’t immediately come up with a reason why we’d run whatever he’d just seen, he yelled, “Put someone competent on the phone!!” After that experience, I knew I could work in television for anyone, anywhere, anytime. What qualities make for a good Producer? Equal amounts of tenacity, attention to detail, creativity and showing up. Raise your hand, be willing to do whatever it takes to get on the air, be organized, have a bit of creative thinking, and you are on your way. What has been your most exciting project you have worked on to date? I directed two camera crews in Times Square for CNN’s Election Night 2008 Viewing Party. My job was to capture the energy of the night and the exact moment when the winner was declared. No matter which side of the aisle you were on, the place was electric – thousands of people screaming, cheering, screaming, crying long into the night.

David Warren

Producer & Location Scout www.maglevmedia.com

How did you get into the business? When I was in film school at the University of Texas I got an internship on a sitcom that MTV was filming in Austin called ‘Austin Stories’. I worked my way into the art department and when the lead man got fired I was hired as a set dresser, which was my first paying gig. After that I worked on the MTV Sports & Music Festival’ in Austin and then moved to Los Angeles to work for Spelling Television & Hallmark Hall of Fame and finally Atlanta. What was your favorite project to date? Inside San Hanna Barbera Penitentiary for Cartoon Network. It was a series of ‘Where are they now’ spots about the villains from Scooby Doo. I had to find an old prison to shoot in that was not operating because the only people in the spots were the animated villains and actors playing prison guards. We ended shooting in a Civil War era prison in Moundsville, West Virginia, which was built across the street from Indian burial mounds. Yes, it was haunted. They even had a museum of all of the weapons that prisoners had fashioned over the years from everyday items. Who knew a dagger could be made from a toothbrush? What a trip. What would be a project that you would like to work on? I’d like to do an unscripted television series about some of the forgotten people across the country. Not a contest. Not a beauty pageant. Stories where truth really is stranger than fiction.

Susan Archie

Art Director/Designer www.worldofanarchie.com

How I Got My Big Break in the Music Business After graduating from FSU with a degree in photography and an interest in computers, I ended up in New York City in the early ’80s, working as a secretary for a large ad agency. My boss asked me if I would be interested in helping her replace the typewriters in the office with ‘word processors’. I immediately saw the future and climbed on for a tremendous ride, which led me to financial services giants Citibank and American Express, to IBM and finally to a high end design firm, where I oversaw the transition from analog office and publishing technologies to the new digital forms available via PC and Macintosh. After I moved to Atlanta in the early ‘90s, my friend Steve Dollar introduced me to a record label here called Table of The Elements, who needed digital pre-press help for their fledgling label. An avant-garde / art label, TOTE had an almost cult-like following and the record reviews came from ART NEWS and ART FORUM, rather than SPIN or ROLLING STONE. But this led us to Revenant, a new label formed by an old guy named John Fahey, who had one of the first artist-owned labels ever, TAKOMA RECORDS, back in the late ’60s. Fahey’s business partner hired Jeff and I to brand and design the first of several small releases, which met with such critical success that we were offered successively larger projects with more and more complicated packaging and concepts. I slowly took over the workload and after we released “Screamin’ and Hollerin’ the Blues: The Worlds of Charley Patton,“ I became a Grammy Winning Art Director. I’ve gone on to receive three more Grammy nominations, and now have a client list from San Francisco to Berlin. I’ve created landmark pieces that have earned many more Grammy nominations and awards for my clients, including Art Rosenbaum and Dust-to-Digital here in Atlanta, to Woody Guthrie, and Dave Holland in New York. This year I collaborated on a set for country outlaw poet Mickey Newbury, and a gorgeous wooden keepsake box set with Atlanta recording artist Doria Roberts. I’m now working with more local artists, including our own ‘international’ star Chuck Leavell, and Athens GA’s Bloodkin. Coming to the industry so late, I’ve seen the transition from abundance to scarcity in the music industry, but am able to still maintain a niche market for discerning (read: mature) audiences who still want to “have, hold and collect” great pieces of art. I also like to play music as well, and I’m now playing in a “gospel” review appearing at Grant Henry’s Church of the Living Room in downtown Atlanta.

How did YOU get started in the Business?

BRENDA FINDLEY

Art Department Coordinator

How did you get into the film business? In 1987, after I’d worked months to put a small-town Kansas courthouse square on the National Register of Historic Places - the buildings were built between 1883-1928 and I had to painstakingly research not just the architecture but the cultural history of each era the Kansas Film Commission called to see if I could get a Hollywood location scout into the cupola of that old brick courthouse to take pictures for a film he was scouting. They said the scout’s name was Mike, it was a TV movie for CBS and the guy was in a hurry to get back to Los Angeles for a meeting. When the scout showed up, to my jaw-flapping amazement, he turned out to be a kid I’d gone to school with since kindergarten in Topeka, Kansas. We chatted, he scouted and I was hooked. The film commission encouraged me to return to the University of Kansas then to study film and design for theatre, and when they called me in 1989 to spend a couple of weeks with the decorator of a TV mini-series, showing her around Topeka, I was thrilled. It was a 1920s period show for NBC and I knew the era so well, the decorator asked me if I’d finish the show as one of her set dressers. The stuff of fantasy for a kid from Kansas, but by the time I got to Atlanta in 1992, I’d worked on four TV movies and a feature film and 22 years later, the fantasy lives on. Why are you an art department coordinator? Being an art department coordinator allows me to use every skill and talent I have, except playing the clarinet. And by the way, have you heard I’m in this band . . . ?

I was working for Aerial Innovations Inc. in Tampa, as a sales rep. selling aerial photography; the owner liked that I had a photography back ground and knew the area. My territory was Orlando. We had a great job to go after at Walt Disney world for the new corporate headquarters. This was going to be a tricky, interesting signature building designed by Japanese architect Arata Isozaki. I was to call on the project manager and sell the progress photography…well after a million phone calls to this guy; I finally got the order, a new husband and a new city to live in! OK, that was over a year, but that’s the short story. When that project was finished my husband came back to Atlanta to work on the Georgia Dome project and I started my own aerial photography firm as soon as we got here. Scariest flying moments: My first auto rotation (entered power off landing, sort of like an engine failure), 38 knot winds, lighting, thunderstorms, whiteout when flying in the GA Mts., lost one of two magnetos while flying… the helicopter was shaking like crazy and we had to bring it down in the grass at the Ravinia office park, landing at different airports trying to outrun serious black skies, flying over a quarry mine when a blasting occurred, did I say wind and lighting? Funniest moments: When the item you are holding goes 100 miles an hour out the window, and you and your pilot look at each other and have to laugh because it’s so funny and sad at the same time! There went all our notes for that shoot. Favorite Projects: I would have to say during the Olympics, there was so much building going on, we had a lot of business and exciting venues to shoot. There was three of us in the office we hardly ever saw each other Our motto regarding flying: “If you don’t throw up you’re in the club”!
