Today we welcomed a new member to the Tallgrass Team, our new creative marketing assistant, Britney! With a background in marketing, photography and graphic design, this enthusiastic lady is going to bring a lot to the table. (Literally; on Friday she’s cooking her first family lunch for the team!)
Fun facts about Britney: If there’s one things she loves, it’s lions. If there’s one thing she...

Vanquishing the Flames
It’s going to a big, balloon-filled week at the Tallgrass Pictures studio. We have both senior editor Gavin Filipiak and audio master Yoshi Kameyama gearing up for birthdays in the next few days.
Ready to utilize their wishes this year, both of these guys have been practicing blowing out candles for weeks now. You wouldn’t believe countless extra hours these men have dedicated to the cause. So...

"The Sockfather"
This week we are finally filming the long anticipated short AMERICAN SOCK which means our studio is overflowing with sock puppets and very random props for the film (some which include a wholly trash can…)
One of our favorite props for this film (besides our star Bob, or course) is our “Sockfather” poster. This set piece took about an hour to create and will only have about 2 seconds...

Here at TGP we’ve been...

White Board Portrait Game
We had a friendly little competition on the studio white board today. Everyone had to draw someone else on the board, and the most creative (or hilarious) illustration won a hug & a beer! Congratulations Alex for making an awesome rendition of Rusteen AKA “The Situation” ;)
The start of a new scene
Today we welcomed the lovely Jennifer Atlas into the family as our new script developer. And with that, we also just purchased the rights to two new scripts that we can’t wait to get started on: “Touring Toilets” and “American Sock”. Stay tuned for more updates on these projects coming soon.
