Chris,

Constructiona crews are no problem, I know several of them that are very good and could staff a very large project.

Triad construction comes to mind first. They are very good, when given a challenge, or time line they always come through!

Case Contracting in Chillicothe (not to be confused with Case Construction)is also very good and would be able to handle the special requests of a movie company.

Painters, well I know a few of them too...LOL

What style of buildings are needed for the mini city?

Any certian types of scenic views? (Rocky, rolling hills, or do you know?

I can handle all your foodservice needs! I work for USFOODSERVICE. I have been in the business for 17 years and would love the opportunity to meet your needs.

If you need any "extra's" I'll be happy to do that to!

Looks good Chris. You are living up to your billing and you work fast (no pun intended). Boss man is impressed with your networking and technology skills. We found your website on nearly every Google search here in Europe. Just wanted to let you know.

Also, actually there are too many conflicts with Austin and it really between KC and Louisville.

How about those Hawks! I don't have them in my brackets but I'm pulling for them.

We are kinda excited about going to KC. Everybody we meet from there is incredibly nice. Says a lot about the city. Thanks for the help. Talk to you soon!

Here's a 20 unit apartment complex located in the historic Hyde Park area in midtown.  Here's a link to the craigslist ad with pictures and more info:  http://kansascity.craigslist.org/apa/1085165549.html

I would be happy to help in any way possible!  I can't help much with the living situation or construction, but I am all over the city constantly.  What kind of scenic settings are you looking for?  

As far as the hottest spot in KC, right now it would have to be the Power and Light District and the Sprint Center downtown for food and entertainment. The Plaza is also a good hot spot.  To narrow it down, need to know more details on what the main interest is.  Feel free to email if I can help.

My house is a 4 bedroom at 70 Terrace and Ward Parkway... Would they want to lease it??? How much do they want to pay? thanks so much for this opportunity!

I believe I replied to the wrong post before... I can rent my 4 bedroom this June located at 70 Terrace and Ward Parkway. A very beautiful scenic area and a quick ride to all over... Old KCMO still has the original trees and architecture.

All the fountains in Kansas City are a total plus for filming and lets not forget the Nelson-Atkins Museum.

I remember the producers of Mr & Mrs Bridge rented the house next mine... It was a ball!

Hi Chris,

I live in Camden Passage Apts. and have been extremely pleased. They are off 29 & 64th Street (up north), 10 minutes from downtown, 15 min from airport and 5 minutes from Zona Rosa, one of the nicest newest spots in the Metro. They are close to all major highways and the upkeep is excellent- rich colors, 5 small lakes, 2 large pools, lots of social activities- very nice interiors, roman tubs, newest built in appliances, etc..

See Info below...

Hope this helps!

Chris,

Have them contact Oakwood Corporate Housing, 12910 Barkley, Shawnee Mission, KS 913-322-1428.

Either of these should be able to provide temp housing and find a complex to use.

If they need any other Production Assistants I'd be happy to help.

I'll add to what Chris wrote. He is being a little vague due to disclosure issues. We are looking for cool spots to do some great action scenes like a car chase and so forth. Chris mentioned the Power and Light District, Plaza and Westport and a few others. Does anyone know of a real cool place I can scope out while I'm there? A cool building, church, park and so forth. Some scenic places would be cool, too. Chris recommended the Ozarks and Branson. Those places aren't too far and would be places we will scout out. Regarding leading actors and actresses, I think we have that taken care of. We will be looking for extras though.

Did an enrollment there 4-5 years ago.  Nothing personal on my end.  Just entities I know of.  

I stayed in an Oakwood complex in Seal Beach, CA for 3 months back in 1994 and enjoyed it.

Another hot spot is the area by the Speedway. A cool scene through Mission Hills would be cool.

The Plaza has a little of everything. There is a pretty good size park with one of the cities largest water fountains. There are several churches in the area. And the architecture sets it apart from other spots in the city.

How fun!  

Scenic areas:  Cedar Creek area on K10, bluffs just north of the Downtown airport near Briarcliff, Parkville, all of Ward Parkway around plaza and just South, area around WWI Memorial & Union Station.

Hot Spots:  We love 18th & Vine for all the live music.  

I have always thought that the Missouri river with the Kansas City skyline would be a cool scene. Down the streets of the KU campus in the fall would provide a perfect backdrop.

Shawnee Mission Park would be another destination to look at. It has large lake, several winding trails that lead off into the woods, and several other interesting spots to see.

I know the airport is a given, but the downtown airport and the Johnson County industrial airports maybe easier to use, if you are looking at airports.

My favorite area is the KU campus during the fall. The Overland Park aboretum is a wonderful area also.

Thanks for the Happy Birthday card. This sounds like fun. I like the current river and down ward parkway.

I'm rubbing it in since it looks like my Wildcats will be advancing to the SWEET 16. I work atr Spring and would think a cool action scene in one of the buildings would be way cool.

I wish the stadiums would be done. They're beautiful stadiums!

KC deserves this . . . It is a great place to live, work and play. Since I have moved here, I wouldn't think about moving. Some of the small towns up North are pretty cool. Weston, Liberty, Jamesport and the town were the hotsprings are at would make good scenery spots.

Just west of Emporia in the Tall Grass Prairie/Flint Hills or around Manhattan is also scenic in its own stark, rolling prairie way.  Plenty of room for car chases.  Rolling roads could make for some good "airborn" scenes.

There is an old "castle" house in KCK, on the  north hill above I-35. Historic place in need of renovation I think.  I'd have to roll by again to get the name of it and the address.

Being an extra would be fun.  It would look great on my childrens theatre/vacation bible school theatre resume'. LOL.  Not to mention I could then compete with my parents, who had "Children of the Corn 47" (or something like that) filmed in their alley.

Ah! Excelsior Springs!  The Elms Resort Hotel.

I replied earlier about the 4 bedroom home off Ward Parkway... It does have wireless, DSL. 816-805-9483.

Why would a movie company contact a Realtor? A Chamber of Commerce or City agency would be more helpful.

The best spots in KC is the BBQ joints. There are so many good ones. The lakes in Missouri provide scenery.

Awesome job Chris! We liked the pics you sent us. We are impressed with your technology skills.

Production Assistant,

The Ozarks & Branson are near the Mo, AR boarder & nowhere near Kansas City. When do you plan to come here for scouting?  Swope Park might be good for some things. Of course tossing in many of our landmarks like Union Station, Liberty Memorial, Worlds of Fun Theme Park, the KC Zoo Ape house to name a few. I'm also sure there are many here who would be more than willing to rent out a room. I can check my complex to see what's open & I'm sure something can be worked out on the lease. You can contact me via my Facebook:http://tinyurl.com/dckdwc

Don't forget the Kansas Speedway.

Very interesting. I can see why you would have been contacted. You are all over the web. I would like to have my website get your kind of placement on Google. Who is your webmaster? I'm paying mine $2000 a month and don't get near the results.

I like the Westport area. It has a story and a film producer could probably bring it out.

Thanks for commenting everyone. We would really like more input.

Regarding when they plan on being here. They are looking to come in June. At that time they need a four bedroom home for at least 3 months.

When the whole crew they need an area to house 200 people. They would like a small apartment.

Thanks for noticing Jack. My webmaster is my 13 year old son. He is really adapting to this web stuff. Yesterday he wrote a really cool program to upload his   Facebook and Twitter Tweets without the internet. This past weekend I've been preparing stats for NBC Action News. He wrote some cool stuff to find some cool stats. Kids are amazing. Oh yeah, this first when trying to rank real high is add your website address into the comment.

If you need any volunteers or someone to help show them around the city, we'd be willing to help out.

Saw this post on twitter looks like it could really be something interesting. My company could easily remodel a 4 bedroom house to meet their needs and then rent it out to them on a month to month basis.  I would say that the hotspot to look at would be the plaza or power and light.  If your interested give me a call 816-372-7855.  

Chris,

I don't think they are going to find ONE place with 50-100 openings. Would they be open to spreading out a bit?  Would a 2 & a 3 Br Apt. or 2 2br. Apt. Work in place of the house? How about the crew housing MUST it be in ONE location or clusters of several nearby locations?

I suppose it would be wise to know the time period the film will be set. If it is modern, I would highly suggest the downtown Power and Light district. 60's - 80's, possibly Kansas City, Kansas. The more details we can get would allow for better suggestions. Please, let me know who will be handling the extras casting. I would like for my son to have this experience, as I have been a part of a couple films shot in the area several years ago.

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.

Actually i would like to contract your son to help with some social network marketing!
