TWO ANNOUNCEMENTS

 A.  Law Course Starts at The Film School at Scottsdale Community College.

 "Entertainment Law: A Primer" has begun its inaugural semester and is off to a great start!  We have almost a full class (very unusual for a new class), and we added students after the first day of class (generally a class will lose students). I am very excited to be allowed to the teach this course. 

 Additionally, this course will become part of a study track for those wishing to be producers in the film industry.  The Film School at SCC will be one of few film schools in the country that offers such a track!

 Other exciting plans at The Film School include the breaking of ground on a new film studio complex and the pairing up with Northern Arizona University to offer a four-year degree in Film Production!

 I am proud to be part of such a vibrant Film School!

B. Election as Member-at-Large for the Arizona Production Association (the "APA").

 I am also proud to announce that I was recently elected as the Member-at-Large to the Board of Directors (the "Board") for the APA. As the Member-at-Large, I am responsible for bringing the concerns and suggestions of the rank-and-file members to the attention of the Board.

The APA is a non-profit trade organization of Arizona production professionals. The mission of the APA is to promote, encourage and advance the growth of the film, theatre and television industries within the State of Arizona and to improve the status and skills of its members.

It is the largest and most influential statewide group in the entertainment industry and publishes the official production guide for the state of Arizona, both in hard copy and on the web (http://www.azproduction.com/).
