Star Circle Pictures CFO JONATHAN GUION has extensive financial and administrative experience, owns a commercial real estate brokerage company, develops commercial and investment properties and manages a list of successful development and investment partnerships. Samaritan star JOHNNY ALONSO graduated N.Y.U.’s Actor’s Studio, guest starred on Homicide, was the only actor to segue from a recurring role on Dawson’s Creek to One Tree Hill, and joins us from the shoot of Blu with Orlando Bloom and Robert DeNiro. Star Circle Pictures producer ETHAN E. MARTEN, will moderate the panel. Ethan has appeared on screen with Jason Robards, Jose Ferrar and Whoopi Goldberg. He co-founded OnStage Magazine, a Norfolk-based arts and entertainment monthly, co-founded 2nd Story Theatre, and was VP of Marketing for Atlantic Films. JIM JENSEN, Southeast Sales Manager for PANASONIC, will provide technical expertise regarding the AG-HVX-200, with its tapeless technology that provides instant viewing. The camera was leased to Star Circle for shooting in January, before it was on the market. Star Circle achieved 81 set-ups in two nights of shooting with the AG-HVX-200 — a mammoth task achieved on time and on budget. According to Digital Filmmaker, If that had been a Hollywood shoot, it would have cost 100 times that much.
