The 2008 Olympics in Beijing! Brought to you by Coca Cola and the Coke Girls!

That's right, that's our camera shooting the Olympic torch relay in Xiamen, China. Last month our crew for The Red Tail traveled to mainland China to complete principal production! This journey was indescribable. Luckily, it will be described in the finished film, set for completion by the end of the summer and festival premiere early 2009. Stay tuned for further news on advance screenings and other opportunities.

This has not only been the spring/summer of The Red Tail, it has also been full of new projects, new clients, and new inspiration. We will introduce you to one of those clients in this newsletter and you can take a peek at the results online!

Thank you for your continued business and interest in our work! Looking forward to sharing more stories soon!

Stay tuned!

During the spring and summer of 2007 our crew traveled all over the United States to highlight some of the small businesses that received financing from Community Reinvestment Fund, USA. This innovative nonprofit makes cash available to small businesses that otherwise would not qualify, such as minority-owned, women-owned, or businesses in rural areas. The result, a series of stories now used by CRF to introduce potential investors and clients to heart of CRF's mission of transforming business and communities.

This journey was inspiring for our crew and we are thrilled to share these stories with the world.
