Movie Producer Takes the Commercial Route

After trying to round up capital for a feature film they wanted to produce, the co-owners of Castlight Pictures, a production company in Hollywood, came up short. But rather than let their film wither on the vine, the crew set its sights on a market that could provide quick cash: commercials. After all, the 30-second spots were relatively easy to produce and with just five employees, Castlight could offer much lower overhead costs than advertising agencies. Since then, the company has wrapped six commercials and some webisodes.

www.intershelter.com has the next wave in sustainable housing. It’s time for some new products and technology focused on the current world socio-economic situation. When the world is downsizing and going for the basics, what is more basic than “Green Shelter” for the millions around the world that desperately need it NOW. Touted by the experts as the “post Katrina” emergency shelter of the future the 'Survival Dome', by InterShelter.com has been endorsed by the Christian Relief & The Alaska National Guard. For the first time it has bridged the gap between tents and stick built houses. This amazing building goes up as fast as a tent and once up is stronger than a stick built house. The revolutionary new 'Solar Dome' is powered by the sun or wind and is totally off the grid. An incredible opportunity to ride the 'Green Wave' at the very top .

There is an old saying that one man's trash is another's treasure, and the same is true of recessions. Some panic and fall apart, while others facing the exact same set of circumstances prosper and find profits. This article is a great reminder that creativity can grow great things under pressure... hope every reader does what I did, forward it to other creative biz leaders so that they grow stronger instead of stressed.
