Your chance to support an independent film

New Columbus-based independent film company, CutThroat Entertainment is putting the finishing touches upon their upcoming short horror movie, BREAK. The film is set to hit the screen December 3 as part of an exclusive premiere party at the Park Street Patio. This premiere party will include the first showing of the film, the chance to interact with cast & crew in the flesh, and other exciting morsels of entertainment. Tickets are currently on sale and now CTE is also seeking sponsors for this special event.

Are you involved with a local business that is independent, unique, and creative and would enjoy the opportunity to support another independent and creative local entity while simultaneously taking advantage of some fabulous exposure and well-deserved advertising for your own organization? If so, then consider sponsoring the premiere of BREAK.

Available sponsorship packages range from $1000-$100 to suit every company budget. By sponsoring CutThroat Entertainment, your organization will be supporting an innovative independent film company on the cusp of many exciting new projects, associating yourself with their first movie (which is already generating significant buzz and anticipated to sell out the venue), and gaining unique exposure for your own enterprise.

Depending upon which sponsorship package you choose, the perks and advertising benefits to you may include the opportunity to air a promotional commercial or video for your business immediately preceding the screening of the film, being able to host a promotional booth at the venue the night of the event, being able to feature a banner or sign of your choosing at the venue the night of the event, being featured on numerous promotional materials (including posters, flyers, radio spots, commercials, and billboards), receiving a permanent link to your business on the CutThroat Entertainment website (http://cutthroat-entertainment.com/home/) , and complementary passes to the fun-filled party.

To become a sponsor or to receive more information about this opportunity, please feel free to contact CutThroat Entertainment’s President & CEO, Adam Whitton, at cutthroat-entertainment@hotmail.com .

Tell him Juliet sent you.

P.S. If you're not in a position to offer sponsorship, but are still interested in attending the event, tickets are available for $20 each. Ask me for more details and/or read more about the film itself here:

CutThroat Entertainment

I've been doing some promotional writing for the fun new Columbus, Ohio based independent film & media company CutThroat Entertainment. Their latest film, a horror movie called BREAK, recently wrapped filming and final preparations are now in the works for a special premiere party, circa Halloween!

Since Halloween is not so very far away, I thought I'd share my promo piece about BREAK for those who might be interested--and in case you're an interested party near the Columbus, Ohio area, I'll share more specifics soon, including exactly when, where, and how to buy your tickets.

My BREAK article appears below. If it piques your interest, please feel free to also check out my other new CTE articles via my Associated Content page here:

You might think you know what to expect when a mix of irreverent young adults find their way into a dark forest and start tossing around scary campfire tales and blood-drenched rumors about an unstable axe murderer who terrorized the area in the past, but was never captured.

As the past starts to horrifically intersect with the present, you might think your suspicions were correct. You might be terribly wrong. If some of your gruesome predictions prove true, know that this is only the beginning. The scene will change and your comfort levels will be tested in some terrifying ways.

Stay close to the one you love and pay attention to detail, lest you become another careless victim in a terrible and increasingly unpredictable series of gory mishaps. Don’t dare to be careless. Don’t dare to take your safety for granted. Carefully prepare yourself for BREAK from CutThroat Entertainment, coming at you Halloween 2009. It will challenge your assumptions and then threaten all you hold dear!

BREAK. You’ll never see it coming (but if you’re in the mood for a creepy sneak peek, see the Break trailer, here: http://cutthroat-entertainment.com/news-updates/news/break-trailer/).

update: The date for the BREAK Premiere event has now been set as December 3. Mark your calendars and stay tuned for more Premiere Party details coming soon.
