Check out the video for what the cast is looking forward to, what they think about filming in Portland, and a couple hints on what to expect in the fall.
In the spring of 2008, Deep Green Films bought top of the line production equipment in order to shoot the feature length documentary “Deep Green—Solutions to Stop Global Warming Now.” Deep Green Films invested in the purchase of a Sony HDW F900R camera, Sony PMW-EX1 camera, Fujinon lenses, an HDCAM tape deck, a Sanyo HD portable projector, and a world class sound kit to produce this high quality documentary. With the recent completion of the final cut of “Deep Green,” this equipment is now available for rental to industry professionals who know the value of quality low mileage gear.

Colour Box Makeup Studios founder Kerry Herta returns to Portland Aug. 31-Sept. 5 to teach aspiring makeup artists the latest techniques used in the entertainment and beauty industries.
Herta, a 2011 Daytime Emmy nominee, previously taught her signature workshops – the five-day Makeup Artist Boot Camp and one-day Airbrush Seminar – in Portland in June. The new dates will accommodate the growing waiting list of artists who couldn’t enroll in the last class.
The exclusive workshops are again limited to 12 aspiring artists, all of whom will be trained by Herta and complete assignments using live models and industry-leading products and equipment.
One of the cool things about the animation/VFX industry is that it’s continually evolving beyond the established parameters. The artistry of a well generated scene or special effects sequence is now no longer confined to a piece of film, but has also begun to take on an interactive element as video games move closer to the cinematic boundary.
Pipeworks Software, based out of Eugene, is at the heart of this constantly shifting field. Ever turned on an Xbox or Xbox 360?
