Media Brief

RE: Media Brief
To whom it may concern,
This letter is to let you know that Jon Ra Films! is in the process of developing a new and original low-budget film to be shot primarily in the city of Tacoma. Principal photography (actual shooting time) will take 4 days, with a crew of 8.
The working title of this story is: "AN ALLEGORY ABOUT SOCKS.” It is film about an insomniac's journey to find the matches to all of his missing socks, as an allegory to the existential anxieties common to man. His psychiatrist has determined that he may have not just gone over the brink; he is free falling down a bottomless chasm. Jon Ra Films! is interested in engaging the public with beautiful, thoughtful, dynamic storytelling through the medium of moving, pure independent cinema.
The local media are invited to join us for “a day on the set” Friday March 17th at 4pm for about 2 hours at our second shooting location: The Western R Café, 1214 Puyallup Ave., Tacoma, WA 98421. Clearance for media presence has been authorized by the Western R, owner/manager, Mr. Young. I will be present as a media liaison throughout the shoot. Our goal is to secure a positive local-interest story. The Tacoma Film Office that has provided us with invaluable logistical support. A potential angle a media piece could pertain to the Tacoma-arts scene, with cross-references with the Seattle International Film Festival, to which this piece will be submitted once complete.
Do call us if you have any additional questions, or if more information is needed for a potential story idea.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Morales
Production Assistant
Mitch Howard Mitchell
Director, Jon Ra Films!
