What's New for 2010?

Sunday, 03 January 2010

2010 and what's new for SidFilmz? We'll get back to you on that.

Actually, it's business as usual. Our Digital Media Producer, Levi Anderson, has been off working on other peoples films the last few months, and is now catching up on some video editing and website redesigns for SidFilmz again. Stay tuned for some upcoming posts on the upcoming DVD Package for Tom Kane's Film Production Workshop. This is for all you folks who love to make movies, but are too creative or artistic to think about it as a business. Tom helps you focus on how to tear a script down into workable parts, build a real budget and schedule, and produce an actual motion picture out of it.

For those interested, check out his website at http://filmtvworkshops.com. Click on the Production Software link and you'll see some killer sales on Movie Magic Scheduling and Movie Magic Budgeting, 2 of the leading softwares for Assistant Directors and Unit Production Managers.

As for new websites, check out the slimmed and simple redesign for Luxury Lagoon Pools, a southern Oregon company who designs and builds custom inground swimming pools and outdoor recreation areas. Some new additions have been made to Hotel Furniture Pro's website, and the redesign process has just begun for Dorris Construction and Design Residential. Look out for those updates soon.

Oh, and SidFilmz is helping to put on the upcoming Killer Valley Horror Film Festival on Sat., January 16th, in Ashland. This is a small-scale showcase of independent horror and sci-fi films, 3 years running now. For more info visit their website at http://killervalleyhorrorfilmfestival.com.

Upcoming Production: The Bag (2009)

Wednesday, 14 October 2009

THE BAG is a short film in production in southern Oregon from a festival award-winning team, local to the area. THE BAG is a simple yet disturbing story of an elderly woman who has grown tired of living. The film is scheduled to go in to production in late October 2009. THE BAG will be directed by Ray Nomoto Robison and was written by by Marlyn Mason. The film is set to star Peggy Stewart.

Robison and Mason previously teamed up on a short film, Model Rules, which has won a Grand Prize Best Screenplay Award at the 2008 Rhode Island International Film Festival and Northwest Emerging Artist "Best Short" at the 2009 Salem Film Festival.

Investors are welcome to contribute to the film, here.

Netfirms Web Hosting - Home of $6.99 Domains

Wednesday, 22 July 2009

Netfirms is not only the best price for domain name at $6.99 for the first year, but they are a great small business host. SidFilmz and Sid's Family of websites started out being hosted on a Netfirms Advantage account, which provided databases, shopping cart plug-ins, Joomla Installs, image gallery plug-ins, and more. Their control panel gave you much more access to DNS Admin settings than most I've dealt with, which made it really easy to update domains when I was juggling a bunch of start-up websites for people. Recently, Netfirms has added Google Apps integration and upgraded their Control Panel to make it even easier for first-time domain owners to manage their own hosting.

All plans can be applied to a Windows or Linux server, and there is support for MySQL, MS SQL, PHP 4/5, ASP, Perl, Python, and Ruby on Rails.

For a small business just venturing out into the World Wide Web, Sid would recommend Netfirms above all other web hosts, especially if you are planning to manage your domain and hosting in-house.
