GIPictures.com is live! What does that mean to you? Well, it could mean you or a dependent of yours can get a paying job in the movie biz.
For those of you that don't know, Nehst Studios has created a movie production company called GI Pictures and I’m an exec and chief military adviser. I brainstormed this initiative with CEO Larry Meistrich (producer of Sling Blade, You Can Count on Me and dozens of other films). Larry is the dependent son of a decorated Viet Nam vet and he's decided to support the troops in a unique way that's never been done before. GI Pictures is going to make movies using all military veterans and/or their dependents. Larry knows what it takes to produce a great film and he believes that all the skills necessary to do that can be found in our nation’s veterans. We're going to let the movie business and employers everywhere know that veterans have skills far beyond those found on the battlefield.
Please take a minute and check out GIPictures.com and SIGN-UP! It's quick, it's easy, and you can list your skills FREE! Also, we’re accepting pitches on scripts and ideas for projects – you must sign a release and there’s a nominal admin fee for submissions. This is an incredible opportunity not only for those who've worn the uniform, but our dependent family members as well. I told you; never been done before. But I need people signing up to make this work. So don't wait, go to the site, sign-up and tell every vet you know. Larry and I know this is going to be huge, so get in now! How much fun will it be to tell America, "Stop buying magnets for the SUV. You want to support the troops? Go to the movies!"
Learn everything we're doing at the site. I'll start blogging, vlogging and sending our RSS feeds in the next few weeks to keep everyone up-to-date on the company. We're working out the details on giving a portion of the profits to a military charity, so stay tuned for that. This really is a win-win-win plan!
Semper Fi Marines, and thank you Veterans of every branch!
Sincerely,
Cary Abbott
