Up first is WALKING UNDER THE INFLUENCE, an R Comedy about a mildly depressed college grad who returns home to live with his parents with no job, no woman, and no money. Think Superbad + Hangover + Friday = WUI.  The 2nd film is LOVE FIRST, a love story set on a HBCU campus. Think 500 Days of Summer + Love Jones = Love First. Last put not least is YARDIES, an R rated animation about young female Chipmunk who longs to be a pet, who learns there is no grass on the inside. Think Fritz the Cat + Bebe's Kids = Yardies.  (*All projects are copyright protected, backed by the Praheme policy of physical pain)   Praphetic Praductions is now looking for Producers, Cinematographers, Production Designers, Editors, Graphic Designers, any creatives who are looking to make dope films.

We’re in pre-production right now and its been a great experience. Huge, huge thank you to Nia Phillips (MFA 14) for recommending me, you are incredible!” From Savage Bell (BFA  94)  “If you've ever wondered what is it I actually do at IBM this YouTube playlist will give you some idea. These are some recent customer reference videos I produced. These are like mini-documentaries that profile IBM customers, the challenges they face, and how they have used technology to confront them. In many cases, their results are remarkable. I'm particularly proud to be part of a company that is actively working to address sustainability and climate change, not exacerbating the problem and/or denying it. https://www.youtube.com/playlist…  And Alex Lau  (MFA 09) worked with us again at IBM PartnerWorld Leadership Conference 2015 in Las Vegas.  He was one of our camera operators in our PWLC Video Studio and vital part of our production team.  We conducted over 30 hosted interviews with a 3 camera switched environment and posted all of the videos to the PartnerVoicesVideo YouTube channel within hours of their occurrence.  The client was thrilled, we had thousands of views, and we couldn’t have done it without Alex and our amazing crew.  Those videos can be seen here:  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLgc9I1TWna2QDvJh7-hAFcHU3HEt3HGgE From Alex Sarwer-Foner Digiacomo (BFA 13) .  “I just moved from Brazil to Montreal, CA a month ago, and I am happy to announce that I was just offered a full time position as a video editor at Mindgeek, a global IT company active in content delivery,  streaming media and online advertising.” From Rob Muraskin (MFA  05)  “Hey Everybody— I spent most of last year showrunning a new non-fiction series (I’d say reality series, but there’s not much yelling) for the History Channel called Monument Guys which launches Wednesday, May 6th at 10 PM.  The show follows a family operation in Oklahoma which makes historical bronze statues—from commissions to historical investigations to fabrication of the statues.  It’s been a fun ride, and a great opportunity to feature amazing artists doing their thing… along with some serious beard-watching.  More info here:  http://www.history.com/shows/monument-guys “From Joe Hackman (BFA  12)  “My latest short film is now on YouTube for the whole internet to see. The awesome cinematography is by the ever-talented Drew Angle (BFA 13) and the film stars three actresses from FSU. It recently played at the North Hollywood CineFest and I will be taking it around the festival circuit later this year. There is strong language and some aggressive twerking, so viewers beware. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3sgQ1VbR0Q” From Rebecca Suellau (MFA-Writing  12)  “The Fern Theatre Company is producing a reading of my play Kept Woman on Tuesday, May 19, at Actor's Express in Atlanta. It starts at 7pm and it's FREE! Hope to see the whole FSU-ATL family there!” Torch Eberhart (BFA  10)  has a  new position is Creative Media Director with the Florida Department of Education's Communication and External Affairs division.  Atlanta job forwarded by Chris Alender (BFA 98) who says:  “My producer friend is very prolific in independent film and scripted television (he's currently producing 2 or 3 dramas for MTV and VH1). Based in Atlanta. He's looking for an assistant and loves FSU people:POPFilms, in Atlanta, Georgia, is hiring an ASSISTANT TO THE EXECUTIVE PRODUCER. This is an entry-level position providing administrative support to the Executive Producer with an emphasis on daily production needs.

We are at the forefront of virtual reality's continued expansion and are working with hundreds of partners small and large to develop content that pushes the industry's creative and technological boundaries.  I've been here for a few weeks as we work to grow our VR department, and we need editors who are organized, story-centric, and interested in learning 360 video stitching, 360 video shooting, and potentially shoot production/idea pitching. Youvisit offers competitive pay, and so far this opportunity is a contractor basis, so the commitment level is great for freelancers.  If interested, reach out to me at shaker.rakan@gmail.com and then I'll direct you to the application, but you'll need a resume. It's nothing crazy or formal, just to have. But knowing me and being film school will basically get them an interview.   FSU CMPA Screenings & Awards Update – April 30, 2015 Dorian (BFA Thesis 2013 Jon Sams) won an Audience Award at the National Film Festival for Talented Youth (NFFTY) in Seattle, April 24-27.
