National film and television shows (like the Hallmark “Graceland” films & Bluff City Law) have caught on to what an incredible place Memphis is to make their work. For the September Shoot & Splice, Sharon O’Guin (Deputy Film Commissioner for the Memphis & Shelby County Film and Television Commission) will talk about the hard work the Commission is doing behind the scenes to both bring national level productions to Memphis and assist local film and television professionals. Then hear some on-set experiences from some very talented Memphians, including Kevin Brooks, Kerri Mahoney and Jil Szewski - all three currently working on Bluff City Law. Shoot & Splice is a monthly filmmaker forum presented collaboratively by Indie Memphis and Crosstown Arts. |

With the utmost respect to Booker, Steve, Duck, and Al, they are going to perform Revolver as they think the MG's would have in the '60s. |
