CLEVELAND, OH — Making movies in Cleveland is
getting a whole lot easier. At least that is the goal of the local nonprofit
organization CINEMA Cleveland. 
With plans to open a community-based production
studio for area residents, CINEMA has been nominated for a $50,000 Pepsi
Refresh Grant to provide professional-grade cameras, lights, microphones,
editing facilities and other resources to those that do not typically have
access to such expensive equipment, empowering the artists that have not had a
voice in the city.

“There are many stories to be told that never
come to light because filmmaking is such an expensive art form,” says Executive
Director, Eric Swinderman. “Everyone in the greater Cleveland area will have
free access to these resources just by being a resident.”

In addition to providing filmmakers with
state-of-the-art equipment and post-production facilities, The Cleveland
Community Film Center will employ trained staff members to help the filmmakers
complete their projects and offer workshops to help the artists hone their
craft.

“With so many talented artists fleeing our
city for more artist-friendly communities, this program will give them a reason
to not only stay but thrive right here at home,” said Swinderman.

The Pepsi Refresh Project Grant Program is
unique in that the public chooses the recipients by voting for the projects
they like the best. This is your opportunity to make a difference in Cleveland.
