Another pick-me-up for Detroit… Today, independant film producer/director, Phillipe Martinez, will publicly unveil his new movie studio, Maxsar Digital Studios, in Livonia. The full-service studio is already up and running, with Michiganders doing everything from screenwriting to casting to film editing. The studio is currently working on “Scar 23”, a $23 million dollar sci-fi thriller. The studio hopes to employ 100 Metro-Detroiters by December.
- According to the trailor, “Scar 23 re-creates the terrifying story of Joan River’s 23rd facelift”.
- If you only see one movie made at a studio in Livonia this year, make it this one!
- Big Al auditioned for the film, but was turned down since it’s not being filmed in the wide-screen format.
