HOLLYWOOD IMPACT STUDIOS - News & Updates

Two weeks ago we had our final video shoot for the end of semester #14.  We decided to do something a little different - we interviewed Charles Roseland for a new web series called "CHOOSING A NEW PATH" which we plan to launch on Hollywood Impact TV.

We had a few new instructors that helped out on this shoot.  This is DP James Reid who is helping one of our students design a shot.   James was a huge help to our camera instructor John Ames, getting the cameras, lights and 12'X12' silk set up and in place. 

 Instructor Stan took on the job of directing this shoot.  He did a terrific job.  Here we see our 1st AD Julie and Line Producer Jim working with the director to get camera angles decided.

The shoot went well, our students loved the day working as part of the production team. Now it's on to post production. Our semester is over until we start again in March. Thanks to all that made semester #14 a success.

CONTINUING EDUCATION

 

For you music lovers among us, HOLLYWOOD IMPACT STUDIOS visited the "NAMM Show" a few weeks ago in Anaheim, California.   For those who might not know, (like me) NAMM stands for the National Association of Music Merchants and was founded in 1901.    It is the world’s largest trade-only show for musical products,distributors, and manufacturers.

 

Manufactures from all over the world bring their products and attend this show. 

 

 

The show attracts some interesting an sometime famous people like Stevie Wonder, Alice Cooper and Robby Krieger of THE DOORS.   

 

Above is Robby Krieger of THE DOORS.  As my brother (who attended with us) said, when you were young, would you ever have dreamed you be this close to a member of THE DOORS...  Nope!  Very cool and Robby was incredible!!

 

 

 We had a great time and learned a lot. If you're interested to check out the show next January. Visit the NAMM website to register.
