A hidden gem in Cameron Park!!


 
                        There is a new film studio called the Foothill Art and Media Collective that just opened in Cameron Park. The studio is in the back office of the Dish repair shop next to Valero at 2653-B Green Valley Road in Cameron Park. It is operated by a former stand-up comedian Mr. Jimmy Turner who graced the stage in 48 states across the USA and has been live on NBC, CBS, and a few of Sacramento's news channels when he was a comedian. But things changed when his daughter was diagnosed  with autism. He put his family first and halted the road trips. Currently, Mr. Turner is working with his son Sawyer on a Father-Son stand-up comedy routine. Sawyer, when he was 9 years old, performed at a talent show at Rescue School.


The new studio has been open for 2 weeks and is by Appointment only. My mother booked an appointment so we could visit this new studio last Thursday. At the visit, I talked to Mr. Turner about this new film studio and what they are doing. He films commercials for businesses in the local Cameron Park area and He showed us his commercial that he filmed for the Mexican restaurant Fernando's Costa Del Sol across the street, which convinced us to eat lunch at Fernando's.


At the studio, they set up a green screen, which is a background in front of moving objects being filmed that allows a separately filmed background to be added in the final image. With the screen, his daughter can say that she wants to be at the beach and with the green screen he can turn on his camera and show her a video of being at the beach.

With that, the Studio also has:

·         Studio Lighting / Multiple Arrays

·         Multiple Backdrops

·         Multiple HD Video Cameras

·         Multiple Audio Recording Devices / Mics

·         Tripods, Monopods, Production Equipment

·         Acoustic Foam Protected Walls

·         Video Editing Services




·         A Growing Collection of Props

Thank You for looking at my writing of this new film studio and I hope that you can use the studio sometime!!

Foothill Art and Media Collective has a website for more information of what they do: www.foothillamc.com

The History of the Bible is finally revealed!!


The new Museum of the Bible in the U.S. capital of Washington D.C. is now open!! The museum is located three blocks from the U.S. Capitol building at 400 4th St. SW. At this new Bible museum, they are dedicated to talking about the History, Narrative, and Impact of the Bible. Their amazing exhibits at this museum are:

·         A reconstruction of an ancient city in the valley of Elah where David fought Goliath.

·         Manuscripts talking about the Christmas story from the fifteenth century

·         John Newton's Amazing Grace exhibit talks about how this song impacted people's lives

·         An art exhibit by Makoto Fujimura talking about the Gospel

·         The World of Jesus of Nazareth which talks about the world during Jesus' ministry

·         The Bible through American History

The Museum of the Bible is eight stories tall and has 430,000 square feet of space, which makes it the world largest Bible museum.  The Bible artifacts and texts at the museum are from the Green's (the family who owns the Hobby Lobby stores) collection. This new museum opened its doors on November 17th 2017, after seven years of working on the plans for the museum. The reason why they opened this museum was to teach people about the importance of God's word, the Bible. They have a program called the One Million Names for people who have donated to the museum. If you donate to the museum, they will display your name on the museum wall to honor your decision. I hope that you enjoyed looking at my post and that you can visit the museum soon!!
