NEWS: 2009 Online Production Sourcebook Update

From Erin Newell Director of Film Indiana
It’s time to update your Indiana Production Sourcebook listing and this year we’re adding some additional information to better showcase Indiana and all that we have to offer this industry. First, we will be including any equipment available for rental from individuals or companies. Next, for individuals we will include resumes or links to online resumes/reels. We feel this is a fair approach to validating a professional crew base. In addition, we want to encourage beginners to list themselves as “Production Assistants” or list in the “Internship/Training” section for any category and have a chance to learn and eventually work as a professional in the industry.
