Please reach out to me about promoting film in NC.
I handle resource devlopment for a non-profit productions company out of Raleigh, and we are in need of funding to continue to support Tony Adams, the ONLY lobbyist who has been a consistent presence at the state legislature. Tony has had a direct impact on the decision making process about the film incentive. Please reach out to me to realize the importance of keeping a lobbyist at work in the house and senate.

Donate at ermp.tv to have Tony Adams personally change the Film incentive to also promote small businesses and to keep it for years to come!
