Page 10 of 22

Location Scouting (November 2019):

 Chapman University students inquired about filming at Riverside Studios.  Indie Feature inquired about filming at Riverside Studios.  New Media project inquired about filming at Riverside Studios.  Sag Feature looking for a Courthouse, streets, and a house. Suggested Riverside Courthouse, downtown streets, and a private home in Riverside.  Feature film looking for a bar in Riverside. Made several suggestions including Mario’s, Heroe’s, and Lake Alice.

Special Events/Sponsorships:

The American Film Market (AFM) takes place over 8 days at the Lowes Hotel in Santa Monica Nov 6 – 13 th , 2019). This is a market to connect both productions looking to sell a film and also the companies that are looking to acquire content. Interestingly, these filmmakers also always have another project (or 10) they are working on, hence, exhibiting at this event yields many location requests in Riverside County once they learn how close we are to the L.A. area and how much service we can offer. Multiple productions have already called for assistance and come to Riverside to scout their desired locations.

Riverside County Districts: a snap shot

D1: Riverside County’s Behavioral Health Buildings on Rustin Ave and Myers St. were scouted for a feature film. Production would love the locations to play as the “group home”. They plan to film for 14 days at these facilities and 90% of the movie will be filmed in Riverside they will put 7 stars at local hotel for 14 days and plan to hire local crew and caterers to work on this film. D2: With Streaming Wars intensifying and some streaming goliaths recently launching new services, independent filmmakers have opportunities to get their films to the screen like never before. VET Tv is amongst these streaming platforms hoping to engage a community of watchers that will subscribe to their platform. Launched in 2017 by retired Marine Capt. Donny O’Malley, this streaming TV show films all of their content in Riverside County due to the assistance received from the Riverside County Film Commission. A feature article has been written about them in the November issue of Media Play News. https://www.mediaplaynews.com/streaming-wars-niche-services-soldier-on/?hilite=%27streaming%27 D3: Feature Film “The Dawn” was filmed at Lawler Lodge and was recently picked up for distribution while pitching at the American Film Market early November 2019. This production filmed in our mountain community and spent three days renting the Lawler Lodge and Lawler Alpine to house the crew and make movie magic. D4: Feature Film Big America has spent weeks scouting locations and weeks filming in the Coachella Valley. They report having booked 1700 room nights and filmed at locations that were county owned such as Lake Cahuilla, County Fairgrounds and locations within other Cities. D5: Fox 911 has an affinity for Riverside County based on past experiences and were already back in D5 to film at Perris Skydive.
