New Republic Studios

We are pleased as punch to present a panel from New Republic Studios on Wednesday, November 14^th @ Opal Divine’s:

Mindy is an actor, voiceover artist, producer, and the former Executive Director of TXMPA. She now heads up a team that has expanded New Republic Studios‘ scope into a multi-platform creative campus serving the film, television, commercial, new media, and the AR/VR/XR industries as well as the creative community at large for projects and production of any scale with a new world-class team and unique services and amenities. Mindy also teaches Yoga, and is a wife & mom.
“I connect people. I am organized and a quick study. I love challenging experiences that help me grow as an individual. I have a variety of interests from film, voiceover work and acting to yoga, travel and snowboarding.”

CJ’s role is ensuring that those on every production enjoy a great experience and have all the tools needed when filming commercials, music videos, or feature films. He is also responsible for organizing payroll and managing the internship program. CJ is a filmmaker at heart, with wide-ranging experience from a DP on music videos to animating for a 48 hour film contest. He is a driven, hard-working individual, who always looks for new opportunities to grow and learn in the film industry. His current personal project is a YouTube series about teaching young adults how to navigate the transition into adulthood in the 21^st Century.

 

Cruz handles all the social media, as well as any visual content that the studio needs. He is a media developer who uses his camera to focus on creating and displaying what the world has to offer. Cruz also enjoys creating content from micro-docs, social media content for business, and volunteering time to create videos for nonprofits, as well as work on some more narrative projects. Besides film, his other passions include biking, hiking, and trying out unique foods in Austin.

 

 

These 3 talented, experienced, and passionately creative artists will discuss the many aspects of media production, from inception to final product and promotion. This mixer offers a unique opportunity to get the facts, insights, and inspiration to think BIG about new projects and ideas, and discover how New Republic Studios can help dreams become reality. Actors, producers, writers, and all those interested in media production are invited!

Hollywood has studios galore. NYC has the island of Manhattan. Atlanta has Tyler Perry & Pinewood Studios.

We have New Republic Studios.

It’s this sort of entertainment production infrastructure that will take Texas to the top of our industry. And it’s available to us all.

Formerly Spiderwood Studios, the newly renovated New Republic Studios is a sprawling creative campus on the outskirts of Austin featuring 4 sound stages, green rooms, dressing rooms, offices, a kitchen, a conference room, and a diversely spectacular 200+ acre backlot on the Colorado River for producing pretty much any entertainment project imaginable.

Don’t just dream big, make it big. Afterall, we are Texas.

Are you involved in making a web series, television show, video game, movie, AR/VR/XR? This Texas gem offers space, facilities, and amenities for all sizes and kinds of projects. Not a few major movies & TV shows have been filmed there, along with smaller productions such as by contestants in the Austin 48-Hour Film Project. Equipped with lighting, sound, green screens, a cyclorama wall, and so much more, if you can dream it, you can make it here.

New Republic Studios is available for any size & variety of production projects, and if you haven’t visited, arrange an appointment to do so on your very next opportunity.
