 Dear Friends
 
It has been another amazing month! We are very pleased to announce a couple things. 
 
- SATI premiers on Friday, May 6th at the Santa Cruz Film Festival. Please spread the word! Details and links below.

- The Real Girls is thrilled to announce two new producing partners, Diane Charles (Web Therapy, The 3 Minute Talk Show)and Antonia Ellis (Sex and the City, Royal Pains). In the coming months Diane and Antonia will be working with us to explore both television and corporate sponsorship opportunities for the show.

- Last but not least, this week we were notified that another short film we produced, Snapshot, has been selected as a finalist for the NewFilmMakersLA On Location competition! The piece features Anthony Li and Aydrea ten Bosch (newcomers to Off-Chance), our very own Rabeya Sen (SATI), and founders Jennifer Weaver and Carmen Elena Mitchell (also of the Real Girls fame). It was written/directed by Reena Dutt, shot by Steven Calcote and edited/composed by Trevor Carlee. Details and links below.
 
Thank you, as always, for all your support!

 Regards,
Reena Dutt, Carmen Elena Mitchell, Luis Reyes, and Jennifer Weaver

Genetic Technology

"diversity influences the plot without dictating it. That all sounds noble, but…it's also darn funny…I hope that a move from online to basic cable is in its future."
