Where do we send the thank-you note?

For those who haven't noticed, there is a direct-to-DVD production going on at the Kissimmee lakefront park on Lake Toho. We hear that often after a first movie is produced, a location gets "on the map" and other production work may follow in the future.

We're wondering who gets the thank-you note for connecting the production company and the Lake Toho location. Was it the Metro Orlando Film & Entertainment Commission? The Osceola County Economic Development Department? The CVB? Disney? Universal?

Whoever brought the deal together, kudos (even if the movie's subject matter isn't everyones cup of tea). Hopefully we can do it again in the future. And if it's not too much to ask, when there is press about the movie, could you remind those involved to talk about Lake Toho being in Kissimmee, not "South Orlando?"

Wow. That is pretty amazing. I hope they are still there. I am going to go down to lakefront and see if I can talk to them. They might be interested in doing the wet T shirt contests at the Kissimmee Fountain. We need some professionals. They would do a better job than Access Osceola.

For the record. I picked up some names of some producution assistants who would be interested in broadcasting a wet t shirt contest. They liked the idea.
