The Goal: It is the intent of the The Mobile TV and Film Production Consortium to help facilitate mobile film and TV production as a significant entry in the great tradition of innovation from Hollywood, the entertainment and information industries. The "Consortium" will seek to accelerate mobile projects, through meetings and "Creative Retreats" throughout the year. The efforts of this "Consortium" will focus on the "Content" in Mobile TV and Film rather than the "Technology." To that end, the "Consortium" will be holding a VIP Dinner (by invitation) at Digital Hollywood, on Monday, March 27th at 7:00 PM - at the Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel.
