How would you like to work on the set of “Oz: The Great and Powerful,” “Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon,” or a commercial for the new Ford Fiesta?

Well, a group of talented students at Center for Film Studies was lucky enough to do just that.

On the campus of Grace and Wild Studios in Farmington Hills, CFS opened in spring 2009, and has launched many ambitious students into interview slots for the opportunity to work on real film projects of all sizes.

CFS has been approved to offer financial assistance through both the Michigan Works! program No Worker Left Behind and the Department of Labor & Economic Growth’s Trade Adjustment Assistance program.

A full diploma program at the school takes six weeks to complete, allowing those in need of jobs to quickly begin the process of applying. There also is a longer 12-week program. All students receive a state-certified diploma after they complete training.

Scenic Prop and Design forms relationships with national film, TV and stage union

Hollywood has come knocking for Madison Heights-based, Scenic Prop and Design. The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, (IATSE), has formed a manufacturing relationship with Scenic Prop and Design that will make the Madison Heights-based company the only manufacturer in Michigan producing custom prop and scenery applications for set production and application.

IATSE is a “trade union” labor union representing technicians, artisans and craftsperson’s in the entertainment industry, including live theatre, motion picture and television production, and trade shows.

Jonathan Krueger, president and founder of Scenic Prop and Design Scenic has developed specific formulas that IATSE members will help produce from lightweight brick, stone, and tree bark applications to custom effects for film, television and stage.

The alliance was developed between officers at IATSE, along with Scenic Prop and Design managing partners Jack Grushko and Mort Meisner, who also own the Center for Film Studies based in Madison Heights.

Meisner added, “IATSE holds the national contract for film so this incredible association will further develop a manufacturing base here in Michigan and give the necessary infrastructure to supply the Michigan Film Industry.”
