INTRODUCING BLAKE NICKLE
Posted by: Jonah Mueller 05.14.12
We're pleased to introduce Producer Blake Nickle. Blake started last week and will be working with Graham & the rest of the post team.
For the past three years, Nickle produced various projects for Los Angeles company Rhythm & Hues, working on VFX for films like Moneyball, Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, and the upcoming Life of Pi, directed by Ang Lee. Originally from Indiana, this Midwest relocation brings Nickle back to his roots and presents an opportunity to make a name for himself in the Chicago advertising arena.

Posted by: Jonah Mueller 04.03.12
Mofest is a much beloved Chicago film and arts festival with the mission of inspiring and highlighting emerging local talent within the film community. The festival strives to produce and collaborate on a variety of public events that will showcase projects, build networks, generate opportunities and create an environment that fosters the community's growth and potential.
Mofest events bring together hundreds of local crew, producers, agency, vendors, executives, and members of the print and post communities. In fact, anyone interested in attending Mofest is completely welcome. Currently, Mofest reaches over 1,000 people in the film community and beyond - and that number is growing.
What started out as a small showcase of existing student films seven years ago, the Mofest Main Event has transformed into its own beast, where creatives from around the Chicago produce and submit their short films, music videos, experimental projects and documentaries. Photography, artwork, sculpture, music, raffles, attendee gift bags, and a very cool 48-hour filmmaking challenge have also become part of the mix. All this is rolled into one giant party with free craft beer, free wine, and free food! Join Mofest on Saturday, April 21 at the historic Portage Theater at 4050 N. Milwaukee Ave and spend your night with a phenomenal group of people! Check out mofest.org for more info.
