Earlier this March, HOLLYWOOD IMPACT STUDIOS was honored by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors.  We were privileged to receive this certificate from Supervisor Mike Antonovich and the rest of the board.

Cyndi was unable to attend, so our graduate and new instructor Charlie Roseland stood in for her.  Supervisor Antonovich made a joke after looking over and seeing Charles instead of Cyndi.

Charles was able to also say a few words of thanks to Hollywood Impact Studios and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department for helping him turn his life around.

Two weeks ago we had our final video shoot for the end of semester #14.  We decided to do something a little different – we interviewed Charles Roseland for a new web series called “CHOOSING A NEW PATH” which we plan to launch on Hollywood Impact TV.

We had a few new instructors that helped out on this shoot.  This is DP James Reid who is helping one of our students design a shot.   James was a huge help to our camera instructor John Ames, getting the cameras, lights and 12’X12′ silk set up and in place.

Instructor Stan took on the job of directing this shoot.  He did a terrific job.  Here we see our 1st AD Julie and Line Producer Jim working with the director to get camera angles decided.

The shoot went well, our students loved the day working as part of the production team. Now it’s on to post production. Our semester is over until we start again in March. Thanks to all that made semester #14 a success.
