A message from a film maker west of Milwaukee works a full time job does film finds time to help others
Glen Popple himself (Mutant Bar Monkey)
"Aside from the post-production work on the feature length comedy Port of Call, we have several other projects in the pipeline here at the plush, well-lit offices of Mutant Barmonkey Productions. We have the short, Little Cabbages All in a Row, as debuted at It Came From Lake Michigan, slightly re-worked and winging its way to Australia for a horror fest. A documentary featuring Wisconsin micro-brews is just being launched as well as dark drama which is currently in development. The details of the drama will have to remain under wraps for now but hopefully the cover can come off later this year. Lot's o' work, that's for certain.
We're also looking at the 48-Hour film shoot next weekend (just a possibility) as well as another short of the thriller variety.
Have a good New Year and I look foward to seeing you guys in the new year."
This man rocks hard! We need more like him

The rant
I ranted today on my Blog Talk Raido show. I should delete it but I will not. I belive everyword I said.
From if you want to get your film made just do it. If you wait for Mr Hollywood producer to come to you...
Do the local 48 project. Do Wis Keno start your own Keno. Why not why let anyone tell you what you can do?
Talked about Film Wisconsin the Tax credits start in a few days get ready.
Talked about the group who is dis the Film Wisconsin Production Guide IMHO simply becuse that group is worried about losing marker share. Got news for you, your actions have put you outside what you could be sharing do not think that because you have done high leval work for Wisconsin that the productions are going to be calling you.
Your pouting has been noticed.
I Think I have to do a whole show with a co-host on It Came From Lake Michigan I need to vent about how some film makers ( or not) think that they can play games and not recive karma payback.
Here is the link. Sometime I will understand how to put in the HTML code to put the button.

Film Wisconsin
In just a few days the Film Tax Incentives come into effect. Are you ready?
Please go to the Film Wisconsin site http://www.filmwisconsin.net/ and check it out. Sign up for the mailing list. How you are at it send a message and see what you can do to help.
You have heard this before you get to hear it again.
I am quite proud to have been one of the handfull of folks to help make this go down. Meeting Scott Robie, Dave Fantal (Visit Milwaukee) and the man who rocks the most George Tzougros (Wisconsin Arts Board).
Others like William Zenobia jumped it to help where he could and started Film Forward to help spared information.
Great group of guys.
On the flip side there seem to be a handful of nay Sayers who I believe think if they can not be number 1 no one will. Sad thing. They create there own guide (of course made up of their pals) and claim better work.
Too bad they sat here(Bitching) as others on there own dime traveled to theAmerican Film Market to promote the whole state vs just their little group. Folks Like Scott rock as others stand with feet of Clay.
But that is just the way things go in Milwaukee.
Now that I got that off my chest I am very excited about what Film Wisconsin is going to do for the whole State.
Check out the Site. Keep me posted about your film project you can do that by sending email to

Thanks

Indy Film In Wisconsin
I am planing on this to be my newsblog of what is going on with Indy film in the State of Wisconsin.
As we move forward into 2008 and the beginnings of the Film Tax Credits we will see films of all sizes come to the Badger State.
Indy Film In Wisconsin will try to bring you the most up to date information on films in all stages of production. However Indy Film In Wisconsin will be focusing on films under 5 million in costs.
IFW will be bringing news of new Video Games as much as we can since more and more Video Games will be much like film.
This in no way should be thought of a take off of Film Forward. IFW backs Film Forward 100%.
Please check out that site once it restarts.
