SUMMER FUN

Hey, everybody!

We hope your summer is chugging along splendidly in spite of heat and drought. Californians are nothing if not resilient, and we can pretty much weather anything, no pun intended.

Since our last post, much has happened. We've enjoyed a fabulous array of productions at LCS, and perhaps the most notable one was a revisit to our spaceships sets by none other than several of the cast members of FIREFLY. Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion had an overwhelming response to their crowd-funded feature project, CON MAN, and key scenes for their comedy feature were lensed at our stages. Even the creator and writer-director extraordinaire, Joss Whedon, made a cameo appearance. If you haven't already seen it, check out the trailer for this witty, tongue-in-cheek knee slapper on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLdcAvnAIZ0.

The retooling of portions of our spaceship sets is receiving nothing but thumbs up by our renters. In particular, the large observation deck has been modified, reinforced, and the flooring fortified by steel decking. The decking, by the way, is modular and removable for use on Stage A. Sections are available for rent in two 4'x8' and two 4'x4' sections. for pricing and and additional information, please contact our office.

A variety of science-fiction, commercials, internet, music video, and comedy productions have been here this summer, and we've enjoyed having every one of them. We're having a great year so far, and judging by the projects that have passed through our stages, there is an abundance of fine talent and entertainment to look forward to.

Thank you to all our renters. You are the reason for our success, and we strive to help you achieve yours.

Best regards,

     Mary, Lex, Patrick, Daniel, Andy, and Travis

SPACESHIP SET REVAMP

Hailing frequencies open!

Seems like a light year since we last communicated. We bring overdue salutations and news from our quadrant.

The news is that our large set, otherwise known as "the observation deck," was just redesigned and refortified. Our deck now offers additional useable floor space, sturdier decking, and is more versatile for camera setups and performances. If you're looking for amazing science fiction spaceship sets for your next project, come check us out.

And in case you aren't aware, our Stage B with the standing sets also offers upstairs, furnished production offices including a large conference room, wardrobe room, and make-up station along with a fully equipped kitchen on the first floor. As always, we provide ample parking, a supply of folding tables and chairs for your crew, Wi-Fi, cleaning fee, and a rubbish haul with every rental. Such a deal!

Need a green screen? Look no further! Our Stage A with its oh-so-lovely two-wall hard cyc offers a spacious 65' long, 16' high, and 30' deep background for your process photography. Kino-Flo Image 80 lights on the overhead cyc grid provide the perfect fill light and are included with Stage A rental.

Plan a scout to our end of the system, and see our stages for yourself. It's well worth the trip.

Signing off,

           Mary, Lex, Patrick, and Daniel
