On Sunday, January 8th, Cast Iron Studios and On Par Production Services hosted the first in a series of events inviting film industry power players to meet with the mayoral candidates. Our first guest was Eileen Brady. The purpose of these events is to get to know the candidates, discuss the issues that matter to the film industry in Oregon and get their take on them.
