La. Produces meetup to feature ... me

WHAT: La. Produces meetup featuring Alexandyr Kent.
WHEN: 7 p.m. Tuesday (Aug. 5).
WHERE: Robinson Film Center, 617 Texas St., Shreveport.

I'll be speaking at the La. Produces meetup on Tuesday at the Robinson Film Center. We'll chat about my beat and what you hope to gain by following it. Bring tips. Bring ideas. As I push forward with some new strategies for coverage, I want to gain your input on what's most valuable.

Also, we have two movies premiering this month: "The Longshots" and "Disaster Movie." If you were in them or worked on them, please come and tell your story.

Why was the article about the film summit so small on Saturday. It's like we have moved from the movie business to the Haynesville Shale. There are top stories about the Shale everyday now.

Hmm. I don't know if I would call that short, but I understand how you might read it that way. The bigger issue was that the Summit didn't really break any big news. We've been having conversations about the area's competitiveness for two-plus years, and I didn't hear much I hadn't reported before.

This month, however, will be a busy month for local film production stories. I have three big pieces planned.
