Woodbury Film Festival 2021
March 5th-7th.
By: Woodbury Film Festival | March 2, 2020
Held in the heart of Salt Lake at Creative Guild Studio
" Woodbury Film Festival celebrates bold visions and powerful voices. Power doesn't always arrive through unflinching determination with loud exclamations. Sometimes it sneaks up on you through subtle but vibrant nuance meticulously woven into the fabric of a narrative-- hidden but visible, silent but bright. "
In our first year, our winning feature film went on to get distribution and will be hitting theaters near you!
In 2020 we weren't sure how we were going to top the first, but we did it!
Director of the festival, Dezi Barr fell in-love with the short Docudrama "Misfit M." That brings life to Marylin Monroe words which had been written months, weeks, and days before her untimely death.
Co-Director Chris Adler's favorite was the winning Feature Film "Highline". This documentary follows 5 friends on ...Read More>>

TRUCK STUNTS: A MIKE RYAN COMPANY
By: Picture Trucks LA | February 25, 2020
If your script calls for the extreme in big trucks, buses or on heavy equipment give me a call. I have jumped, rolled, crashed, pipe-ramped, cannoned or jack-knifed just about every rig combination imaginable.
Vehicle Sourcing
Today's budgets don't allow the idea of "Picture Vehicles Unlimited " to thrive. Our focus these days is to provide new or newer model semi trucks, buses, heavy equipment and racing cars. My 18 years of racing semi trucks on Pikes Peak and displaying those trucks at the most significant truck industry trade shows for nearly two decades as well as my two Guinness World Records in big trucks has introduced me to the CEO's, Presidents and Directors of Marketing at most of the big truck and equipment manufacturers. Having access to them and their dealer fleets nationwide puts Picture Trucks LA in a very unique position. We have the ability to obtain specialty ...Read More>>The Most Highly Anticipated Event in the Business of Story Telling
