Pod Morton would like to thank Original Cinematic for sponsoring this week's episode.

Original Cinematic is an independent production company that has made it their mission

to create, produce, and promote films that are inclusive, honor women, promote the LGBTQIA plus community,

and provide prominent positions and roles to POC actors and filmmakers and promote the films of

marginalized and underrepresented populations.

These are all things that are extremely important to our podcast as well.

Original Cinematic is proud to be a WGA signatory company and they fully stand by the WGA

SAG and their members in their fight for

extremely reasonable standards. Accordingly, they are not accepting script or treatment submissions

at this time, but both William and Zena Rush are available via email free of charge to discuss

writing and provide input and resources to all aspiring writers.

Their information will be made available on the show notes.

Ahead of the strike, William Rush has individually produced numerous projects, including

Coffee with Baba, Day by Day, They Slay, Before, Pack is Here, Abacue, the Wine Maker, and Where Do You Draw the Line?

Two feature films, group and immersion, are slated for release this fall. Absolutely no picket lines

will be crossed and no collective bargaining agreements will be violated in the making of either

of these films. And very generously,

Original Cinematic is providing all Pod Morton patrons with a special link to view these

films. If arrangements can be made, they will even schedule a virtual or in-person screening

for our patrons. We cannot thank Original Cinematic enough for their contribution to our show

and the horror community as a

whole. Now, back to Pod Morton. I'm Renee Hunter Vasquez, joined as always by my co-host, my husband, and my brother.
