| La Grande Summer Film Project |
 Hungry filmmakers have descended upon La Grande to participate in The La Grande Summer Film Project. Four teams have five days to make a 10-15 minute short film before their premiere 10:30 Friday night at the Crossing the Blues festival in downtown La Grande's Max Square. After a successful meeting on Saturday the teams have been assembled and the filmmakers have taken to the streets. The filmmakers will be blogging each day so check them out at The Production Blog to get up to date behind-the-scenes information. Valley Video Services is a proud sponsor of the project, providing equipment and expertise throughout the week, and Chuck and our intern Jason have both signed on as participants. Good luck to all! |
