Genesis Studios Grand Opening + Press Conference
Culminating three years of design, development, and construction,
Genesis Studios will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony at noon, August 26th,
2008. Local and state elected officials, along with Film Commissioner
Jeff Monks, friends, and our special guests from Movie Tao Productions
will join us for this event. “This has been three long years, but I
think the result has been well worth the wait,” says Art Director Will
Bryan. “A lot of the creative design elements were our own doing.”
The 15,000 square foot facility is a creative person’s
dream. “It’s fun, stimulating, and motivational,” says Bryan.
President Cliff Springs adds, “We want to thoroughly enjoy coming to
work every day, and we want our clients to feel the same way when they
come to visit.” Among the highlights are two sound stages, a master
control suite, multiple edit suites, a creative brainstorming area, and
a 25-seat movie theater with 7.1 surround sound.
