Kameo Team Founded in the Early Stages of the Pandemic, After a Brief Intermission, Hollywood Is Back in Business Human Interest Lights, Camera, Testing! lex Ostebo did not spend her pan- demic binge-watching movies. In fact, when stay-at-home orders A brought film productions to a grind- ing halt in spring of 2020, the producer and founder of LA-based Creative Picnic thought she’d be back behind the camera soon enough. But as weeks turned to months, she wondered what productions would look like when they were finally able to return. Studios would sure- ly have to provide safeguards against the coro- navirus and of course, frequent testing. At the time though, no lab option was as fast and as flexible as a time-strapped film production would require. “Our entire industry,” she recalls, “is based on being together.” And that entire industry need- ed a solution. “Film sets are all about safety,” she says, so it seemed logical that testing would become es- sential. “The challenge was to get the right peo- ple and the right labs.” The Kameo Team Founded in the early stages of the pandemic, After a brief intermission, Hollywood is back in business. Some productions started filming again last summer, thanks to an LA start-up -- founded by a veteran producer -- that provides reliable, flexible covid testing for the entertainment industry. Ostebo launched Kameo specifically for the partner labs to ensure they would always meet production industry she knows so well. In fact, the industry’s time-sensitive needs for results.

This variety of tests makes it easier for produc- tions to stay on schedule and accommodate challenges that plague any production, like last- minute cast additions or changes in location. It has also made Kameo a trusted vendor of top studios. As of March 2021, dozens of produc- tions have used Kameo to keep their cast and crew safe, including A24 Productions and Film- Nation Entertainment, which has produced hun- dreds of popular films featuring such renowned actors as Tom Hanks, Robert Redford, Jake Alex Ostebo Gyllenhaal, Carey Mulligan, Ryan Gosling, Steve Carell, Natalie Portman, Joaquin Phoe- nix, Julianne Moore and Emma Thompson.

  • Conquering the Colon: the Adventure of Advanced Punctuation
    Oregon State Bar Bulletin — APRIL 2010 April Issue The Legal Writer Conquering the Colon: The Adventures of Advanced Punctuation By Suzanne E. Rowe Perhaps the only punctuation mark more terrifying than the semicolon is the colon. Most writers avoid the colon for fear of misusing it. Most readers feel intimidated by the brave writer who dared try to master the colon’s nuances. When is a colon appropriate? How many spaces follow it? Does the word after a colon need to be capitalized? This article will bring you closer to conquering your fear of the colon. When to Use a Colon Colon usage varies from the exciting to the mundane. In the first two explanations below, think of the colon as the pause — or the drum roll — between an introduction and the exciting details. Picture someone on stage with an envelope saying, “And the winner is…!” The remaining explanations are more mundane, but perhaps easier. Lists One common use of a colon is to introduce a list. The nominees for best actress were impressive: Sandra Bullock, Helen Mirren, Carey Mulligan, Gabourey Sidibe and Meryl Streep. Be sure that the introductory sentence preceding the colon is truly a sentence. A colon would be incorrect in the following example. The nominees were Sandra Bullock, Helen Mirren, Carey Mulligan, Gabourey Sidibe and Meryl Streep. Independent clauses In the use that inspires the most fear, a colon separates two independent clauses when the second clause expands or illustrates the idea in the first clause. (Remember that an independent clause is just a complete sentence.) The drum roll — the colon — comes after the first sentence.

  • The Upcoming Film an Educationis Poised to Make Carey Mulligan, Its
    INTERVIEW On an all-too-typical early summer’s evening in London, the air is cool, and rain lashes down onto the pavements outside St John’s, Smith Square, a Westminster church that’s been converted into a concert hall. And tonight it is serving just that purpose for the filming of An Education, the only difference being that the British coming-of-age drama is set in ’60s London, so all signs of 21st- century life — BlackBerrys, big watches, iPods – have to be hidden away, while in front of the camera a cluster of suited, hatted men and beehive-coiffed women buzz about, including the film’s four stars. When Danish director Lone Scherfig gives the nod, Peter Sarsgaard and Carey Mulligan run hand-in-hand down a side street to the church’s steps, where glam couple Dominic Cooper and Rosamund Pike wait shivering under an umbrella, before the four dash up the steps through St John’s porticoed entrance. As soon as Scherfig yells, “Cut!”, Mulligan is immediately draped in a foil wrap to stay warm. All four actors are dried off, then sent back out into the night to repeat the sequence take after take after take, although — unlike real London — at least the drizzle can be turned off until needed; it’s pouring out of a rain machine. Water is a fitting symbol for this ’60s film, since it was actually conceived in a bathtub. Novelist Nick Hornby was soaking in a bubble bath reading a piece by Lynn Barber in Granta magazine about her youth in the early ’60s when he was struck by the idea that it might make a great movie.
