S3 Entertainment Group Launches Initiative to Bring Film Production and Jobs to Michigan

April 30, 2008 - PRLog -- TROY, MICHIGAN — S3 Entertainment Group (“S3EG”), with its strong relationships in Hollywood and its offices in Michigan and Los Angeles, is working to help Michigan leverage its new incentives to compete effectively to bring film and television production to the State.

S3EG has just launched a program in which it is actively recruiting producers to base their new film production in Michigan by providing an insider’s perspective into the benefits and quality work that Michigan can provide and providing extensive services for filmmakers that will make them more likely to bring their next project to the State.

S3EG is a full-service company that can help producers get things done in Michigan.  The company was started by entertainment executives in Los Angeles and business executives in Michigan. S3EG can also help Michigan companies reach out to the film community and provide services that are required.  Ultimately, this results in more jobs for the State.

S3EG is uniquely suited to effectively provide these services because of its two-pronged approach.  First, the company has extensive experience in Hollywood-based film and television production.  Second, the company has extensive experience in working in business in Michigan, specifically in the areas in which producers are requiring quality services.

“The new tax incentives have put Michigan on the map in the film industry.  Now, we need to show producers that they can get everything they need in terms of labor, equipment and other services so that they’ll have great success working here in Michigan,” said Jeff Spilman, principal of S3EG.  

“Everybody in Hollywood is thinking about Michigan today. S3’s experience in film and television production means that we ‘speak Hollywood’ and know what they’ll need to be successful in the State.  Our intimate knowledge of the State and its assets ensures that we can provide them with the access that they need to be successful with their projects,” said Jeff Stern, principle of S3EG.
