A BIG voice for small businesses
“As a studio owner in Georgia, I’ve invested my own money and sweat equity in our stage space. As one of the founding members of the BIG Film & Entertainment Alliance, I’ve been able to have a voice to help protect my business. It’s important for businesses of all sizes to be able to advocate together with their peers for Georgia’s film and entertainment businesses.”
“Georgia’s production service infrastructure is a key part of what helps bolster Georgia’s film industry. A few years ago, when production business was picking up here, I pitched the idea of a Georgia-based Enterprise Entertainment division to company leadership. Now we have grown from having just me and a four-person team to a team overseeing every county in the state. All serve Georgia productions, and all are Georgians. BIG gives me a voice in this very large industry.”
“Growing up in Georgia, I never believed I would have this opportunity to work in this industry in my home state, let alone found my own company, Moonshine Post-Production, and work with an amazing team of storytellers. Production services is just the beginning of Georgia’s success. The next step for sustainability is engaging a mobilized, creative workforce with local liquidity and production occupation. As a member of BIG, I’m able to have a seat at the table to help make that happen.”
