OMPA Thanks You Party and Oregon Film Annual Meeting
Dear Industry members, As of the deadline, 85% of our industry members renewed
their listings in the industry directory, SourceOregon. That leaves 200 people we are still waiting to hear from. Where are you?
I suspect you are working. That’s what we hear when we call those who have not yet listed. It’s not surprising, as it’s been a busy year for Oregon. We’ll keep pestering you to order your listing until we get an answer from everyone in this industry that we know of.
It’s been a busy year for OMPA too. Looking back, it is hard to believe all that we accomplished together. In brief:
• We rallied hundreds of people in Salem on the Capitol Steps to support the Film Incentive
• We lobbied and renewed the incentive -- in the toughest budgeting period Oregon has ever seen
• We moved the Callsheet newsletter online to www.issuu. com/ompa and increased the readership of Oregon’s industry news by 400%
• We held an OMPA-style state of the industry, called the “OMPA Roundup”, which brought elected leaders and industry VIP’s together to support producing in Oregon
• We earned the support of city and state leaders, including Portland’s outgoing mayor Sam Adams
• We threw great parties, including Oregon’s Got Talent, the reception for the Northwest Filmmakers’ Festival, and a fantastic Final Cut Classic golf tournament
• We co-promoted events with 3dpdx, AEPDX, WebVisions, the Creative Conference, Women in Film, IATSE, SAG, and AFTRA
• We promoted film premiers and screenings of local producers and crew including Janet McIntyre, the Freeman Brothers, the Pander Brothers, Justin Kolezar, Lana Veenker & Andrew Warnecke, the Faux Film Fest, Leverage viewings – as well as next week’s screening of Population: 2 from Gil Luna, Ken Luba and Moon Tribe Studios.
And we welcomed 102 new members to the Oregon Media Production Association who join the cause of growing jobs and opportunities in Oregon’s production and post-production industry, and all of whom deserve thanks and appreciation for their support.
Please join me in celebrating our success at the “OMPA Thanks You” party on Monday December 12th. I think you’ll agree we have a lot to celebrate.

Oregon’s Media Production Industry Says “Thank You”
Film, TV, commercial and new media production group welcomes Governor Kitzhaber with end of year fete.
Join Oregon Media Production Association (OMPA) and the Oregon Governor’s Office of Film & Television on Dec. 12th for a “Thank You” party followed by the Oregon Film Annual Meeting in Portland.
2011 was a record year for Oregon’s film and television industry in generating economic activity and hundreds of jobs for Oregonians. Portland Mayor Sam Adams is among the many elected leaders who have voiced support for film and TV jobs. “The
film industry is an important economic driver, ” says Adams. “Since 2007 through December 1, 2010, the direct and indirect impact on Oregon’s economy by state-allied film and television projects was nearly $350 million. By the end of 2011, this impact is projected to be almost $542 million.”
The Oregon legislature’s renewal of the Oregon Production Investment Fund (OPIF) came after rigorous scrutiny of all the economic development programs and is a testament to this industry’s ability to generate jobs. In spite of a lackluster national economy, Oregon’s commitment and support of the media production industry is directly related to its growth. “It’s really a group effort,” says OMPA President James WilderHancock, “and that is why we want to say ‘thank you’ to all the people and organizations who make Oregon a success at growing jobs for an information-age economy.”
Featured at the reception will be Digital Media Commission scholarship students, who will present winning projects. The Digital Media Commission was awarded to 8 individuals to explore applications of specific personal media technology, provided by and directed by Intel Interaction & Experience Research Lab.

ABOUT THE FILMEvery day, Lilith wanders the remains of
civilization, scavenging what she can from the deserted refuse of what was once a bustling city. Her red wagon drags along behind her, its rusty wheels squeaking out a constant and lonely rhythm in the dead city. Once she had planned to fill it with a child’s toys. Now, instead, she fills it with canned goods, bottled water, and whatever else she can find to help her live another day. These materials she brings back to her underground home, a nest she’s carved out for herself underneath the deserted city streets.
The film prompts one to explore the themes of loss and loneliness, as well as to show the consequences of the choices we make, and the choices we are afraid to make. It warns about the dangers of taking things for granted, more especially the relationships we forge with the people willing to take life’s journey with us. It is a story that explores one potential future.
Population: 2 was shot entirely in historic Oregon locations (including the Shanghai Tunnels, the Fairview Training Center and the Frank Lloyd Wright designed Gordon House) with an all-Oregon cast, crew and equipment.
The feature film was written and directed by Gil Luna; produced by Jonathan Stark, Gil Luna and Kenneth Luba in association with golightlyfilms, inc.; Story by Jonathan Stark and Gil Luna; Director of Photography Kenneth Luba; starring Suzanne Tufan, Jonathan Ashley Hall, and Shelly Lipkin.

OMPA’s Government Affairs committee – formerly know as the Government Affairs and Business Development (GABD) committee – met last month at the OMPA office to begin preparations for the convening of the 2012 Oregon legislative session.
The Government Affairs crew has done a lot of the heavy lifting for OMPA over the last few years. This group crafted iOPIF (OMPA’s revision to the Oregon Production Investment Fund to benefit Oregon-based independent producers), lobbied the film office to create the “Roads of Oregon” promotion and blog, researched and published the Candidate Scorecard, organized constituent meetings with
legislators and coordinated messaging to increase OPIF and re-affirm it by the legislature this last session. Thanks in large p Applefield as Government Affairs chair. Barring any unforeseen resignations, Nathaniel will remain chair until the OMPA board meets again for strategic planning next February. So show Nathaniel some respect and support! Those of you who participated in the 2011 legislative efforts will already know that Nathaniel has been an extraordinary asset in our lobbying, even in his short time as Executive Director of Portland AFTRA.

OMPA’s Talent Committee Takes On The Myth of the “Starving Artist”
by Harold Phillips Most people working in our industry
have been exposed, at some point, to the romantic notion of the “starving artist” – that person who lives in poverty, works three jobs to make ends meet while pursuing his or her creative endeavors on the “off-hours,” and is often hungry (but nourished by those endeavors.)
It’s a romantic notion, to be sure, and our hat’s off to anyone who can make a life like that work for themselves and their families. OMPA’s Talent Committee, however, doesn’t believe our members need to starve to work in this industry. On the contrary – we believe that our industry is only weakened if those working in it are living “hand-to-mouth.”
Of course, we know first-hand how difficult it is to make a living in film, TV, commercials and new media here in Oregon – the variable work, the sometimes (if not often) low wages, the unpredictable schedule… we also know there are ways to take charge of one’s life and business that will not only help those working in our industry “make a living” – but LIVE a stable life.
Over the past year the Talent Committee has presented a series of seminars aimed at giving OMPA members and others in our industry the resources they need to get their business and personal lives in order. In February, the Committee held a workshop on tax planning. In September, we presented a panel discussion on health insurance options. This coming January, the Talent Committee plans a panel discussion on saving, investment
and retirement. These seminars, and others the Talent Committee has planned for 2012, are presented free of charge for OMPA members (and are open to the public for a nominal fee.)
As our members toast the end of 2011, we hope they’re also analyzing the challenges and missteps that may have occurred this past year… and that they’re laying plans to make 2012 an even stronger year. The Talent Committee’s seminar series is there to help with those plans. We hope you’ll join us in the coming year as we explore ways to make our industry stronger, by keeping those working in the industry from starving.

Creative Cares Brings Nonprofits and Creatives Together for the Greater Good
Why CreativeCares?There are thousands of noble
organizations worldwide that need the expertise of creative professionals to tell their story. Without a powerful message, organizations cannot garner the resources they so desperately need to effect real change. These organizations working for social change are strapped for time, resources and funding. Many of these groups rely solely on charitable donations. Hiring strong creative talent is usually not a financial possibility.
How does CreativeCares help?CreativeCares is a nonprofit that
connects other nonprofit organizations to creative volunteers. Creative professionals are matched to organizations that need creative services such as graphic design, web development, copywriting, filmmaking and videography. Together, they achieve a louder voice, a bigger presence and a greater ability to tangibly change the world.
Who is CreativeCares?CreativeCares was founded in
2010 by Burk Jackson, who left a successful commercial photography career to help nonprofits find the skilled creative help they often need. CreativeCares has grown from fledgling start-up to award-winning innovator. The organization was just named 2011’s “Best New Nonprofit” by Portland Monthly magazine’s Light a Fire awards. This past year, CreativeCares has successfully matched numerous creative volunteers with many
nonprofits like Portland Homeless Family Solutions, Paws Assisting Veterans, SHARE in Africa, Habitat For Humanity, Reactive Magazine, Chicago’s BackStage Theatre Company, Open Meadow School, Mental Health Association of Portland, Mt. Emily Safe Center, Children’s Book Bank, and other wonderful organizations.
How can you get involved?An upcoming project ideal for OMPA
members is a short video for the Portland Jazz Composers Ensemble. The Portland Jazz Composers Ensemble is a 14-piece ensemble that commissions and performs new music by Portland-area composers. The film will document the creative process as 4 composers develop new pieces of music to be performed at the Portland Jazz Festival in February. The composers’ perspectives and approaches will be highlighted in the film with the climax being the Feburary concert.
Whether you’re a seasoned professional or an aspiring young filmmaker, CreativeCares has a constant and ongoing need for talented individuals. CreativeCares is also seeking mentors for our student volunteer programs. We have numerous
projects that will be created by students and we’re looking for professionals to guide them along as they work to help others.
To find out more or express interest in any of our world-c h a n g i n g programs, please contact Burk Jackson at burk@creativecares org or visit online at CreativeCares.org

Indent Studios Presents Acting for the Rest of Us. Instructor: Steve Coker
This is not a Meisner class, No Stanislavski here! This is an informed and inspirational deconstruction of the performance process. Most acting classes inspire through teaching someone else’s methods, in this class we strive to discover YOUR specific process, YOUR unique perspective on character, movement, and performance interaction. Discover it and teach you to trust it.
I don’t believe in ‘acting’ I believe in ‘reacting’ and the art of listening. This is a six week course designed to get you performing scenes right away. We will
discuss the fundamentals of ‘reacting’, work with and critique other students, and receive direct feedback from a professional actor/producer/director and casting director.
Many of you will see results and improvements to your performance after one session.
Class is Monday nights 6pm to 8pm for six weeks starting November 7th and ending December 12th.Class fee is $250.00Class size limited to 12 students.For more info or to sign up, contact: [email protected]
In a bold move to increase the comfort level of thousands of patrons in Portland, Oregon, the Hollywood Theatre is rolling out an aggressive, new ergonomic stimulus package called “Creature Comforts”. The Hollywood Theatre, long recognized as a historic landmark in the centrally located Hollywood neighborhood of Portland, is the recent beneficiary of ergonomic stimulus aid from Regal Cinemas, a national movie theatre chain, in the form of 600 “gently used” seats for its three auditoriums.
Like many stimulus packages, this generous gift of seats (a $100,000 value if the theatre were to try to buy them on their own) comes with a local matching component. It will cost approximately $30,000 to install the seats and make it possible to start realizing “ergonomic gain.” These funds will need to come from Hollywood Theatre patrons.
“That’s roughly $50 a seat,” points out Hollywood Theatre Executive Director Doug Whyte. “This is a remarkably good investment for our patrons, with their $50 gift being instantly matched 3 to 1 by Regal.”
The Hollywood Theatre is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to entertain, inspire, educate and connect the community through the art of film while preserving a historic Portland landmark. The non-profit also owns the building that houses the iconic theatre. This ergonomic stimulus package is one part of a much larger effort to improve and renovate the Hollywood Theatre as a major venue in the Portland Area.
“Our members and patrons have told us that they place a high priority on the theatre itself as not only a historic landmark, but as a vibrant cultural venue for the neighborhood and the city,” says Whyte. “Our patrons are telling us that caring for the building itself should be one of our highest priorities.“
“We have already started other
improvements to the building, working to make it more comfortable and more beautiful for our patrons to enjoy,” continues Whyte. “We will be working on several projects over the coming years to continue to renew this wonderful theatre, as we also continue to enhance and expand our programming and our service to the community.”
Hollywood Theatre Board President, Andrew Schpak, is confident that the community will get behind this initiative. “We already have the donated seats, and I believe everyone in the community who has sat in one of our old ones knows how important these new seats are to the theatre’s success.“

Eastern Oregon Film Festival awards five filmmakers with this year’s honors. Bellflower and Dragonslayer received Best Film nods in the narrative and documentary categories, respectively. Cirkus Columbia, and short, Summer Snapshot won audience choice awards. And Bad Fever director, Dustin Guy Defa, was recognized for his ‘Innovation in Directing’.
Now in its third year, EOFF continues to grow at an impressive clip. Attendance increased by almost 30% this year and community support has grown exponentially. With numerous film premieres, filmmaker Q&As, and raging afterparties with some of the hottest bands
in the region, EOFF is quickly gaining a reputation as one of the best weekends on the Northwest calendar. “It’s a tall order to cram 20 films and 8 bands into 3 days,” said EOFF Board President, Chris Jennings. “But we all had a good time trying.”
This small, artist-friendly festival serves up quite a slate of award-winning films, including a wonderful array of Oregon, Northwest, and even West Coast premieres (i.e. films that have never screened in these regions). Festival goers are also given a unique opportunity to engage with numerous filmmakers who were at the festival to facilitate Q&As in person. One of them, Jon Foy, came from Philadelphia to kick off the NW Premiere of his Sundance-award-winning documentary, Resurrect Dead. And several others, including hot up-and-comers, Evan Glodell, Tristan Patterson, Sophia Takal, and Dustin Guy Defa, participated in Q&As via Skype.
Jury awards were given to the best narrative and documentary features, as well as a Special Mention for a powerful small independent film that caught everyone’s attention:
