" to consider what the leadership of this union has wrought upon this business. " which union are you referring to?? The IATSE has given us away in "New Media", and "New Media" is probably going to rule, even episodic TV will qualify, when they preview the shows online before the air date/time! SAG is fighting fiercely for some better terms for "New Media"...

Weinstein Co's Dimension Films Stops Pre-Production On 'Halloween 3D' "So here's what happened: the script only came in Friday, and it was the first draft that Dimension Films had seen.

Hi sound friends, BE AWARE I got a message recently that Professional Sound Services is under new management. It said " PSS has not gone away... we have simply moved" So I contact the new management to find out about an item I had there which was under consignment. This is what they wrote to me : Looking into the old business (Professional Sound Services Inc) past accounting records - your item was sold back in September as per the attached order. It would appear that you were never credited for it - I am sorry, but you will need to take this up with Rich as we only bought the physical assets from him and not the liabilities or business. Al…

Smithsonian/Folkways bought Chris Strachwitz's Arhoolie Records. I personally think this is great, and means that all those amazing Arhoolie albums will still be avail in some form after Strachwitz shuffles off (he's in his '80s). This is great approbation for a life's work preserving our musical heritage, well-deserved. They ought to give Chris Strachwitz one of those Presidential medal things for all he's done.
