MaineGrowing Momentum to Bolster Film Incentives in MaineThu, 01/01/2009 - 01:00 – erin
By Cameron Bonsey
Blogger and film advocate Cameron Bonsey gives a personal take on the roadblocks and opportunities to attracting more film production to Maine. Maine hasn’t had a major film production since Empire Falls dropped 13.6 million into its economy in 2003, stimulating and invigorating small Maine towns like Waterville and Skowhegan. In 2006, with the work of the Maine Film Office, the Film Commission and film industry advocates Barney Martin and myself, Maine passed its current modest incentives. Those incentives proved to be too small to make a difference and have had no impact in bringing additional productions to Maine. read more...Industry News - January 2009Thu, 01/01/2009 - 01:00 – erinPosted in

Screening this month at Sundance, New England natives Wyatt Garfield and Ed Yonaitis's narrative short, The Execution of Solomon Harris, focuses on one man’s dilemma when a power failure occurs while a prisoner is in the electric chair.The initial inspiration for The Execution of Solomon Harris came from an actual time when a circuit blew during an electric chair execution. In the real event, the guards had to restore power to the chair to carry out the sentence. Hearing about it made Ed Yonaitis wonder: Is there a right or wrong way that someone should be put to death? And who are we to decide? read more...Maine MoneyWed, 12/01/2004 - 01:00

Maine isn't only famous for Stephen King and cold weather. Filmmaking is alive and well at the 2001 Maine International Film Festival.Lacking the built-in touristic draw of a Nantucket or Newport, modest Waterville, Maine -- a college town in the states interior -- relies instead on a cadre of indie-minded aficionados to mount the Maine International Film Festival. Initiated in 1998 by local cinema lovers Ken Eisen and Alan Sanborn, who run the Railroad Square Cinema year-round, "MIFF," as its known, drew 4,000 viewers last year, not just from Maine, but from 26 states and nine foreign countries.
