Cedar Rapids-area filmmakers - check this out! Other places have done 48 hour film races, but I like the idea of one in our own backyard, not to mention having a few extra hours. I've talked to a handful of my filmmaker friends who are interested, and the organizers are hosting a mixer on Thursday for people who want to learn more and join a team. I'll be there for sure!

Des Moines gets all the attention for Iowa filmmaking, but let's show what the Corridor, and eastern Iowa can do!

Football or Soccer fields with lights

9 Upvotes

Hi, are there any fields that are lit on week night evenings for public use or available for use where a community member can pay for lights for a pick up game? Could also use the outfield of a baseball diamond. I'm new to the area and have lived elsewhere where there have been some public fields lit for use. Thank you!

That's a Wrap: We Finished Filming

Thumbnail gallery
73 Upvotes

We finished primary filming in and around Cedar Rapids last week for The Stolen Pony Posse.

It was a great time shooting this short film in CR.

What we're proudest of regarding this production is the focus on local talent and locations. We're employing local cast and crew and making The Stolen Pony Posse WITHOUT state tax incentives. We're not here for the money. We're here for the movie. Telling this story about this place with the people who call it home is what it's all about.

We'll keep this community updated as we move into post-production and share more about the real-life stories that inspired the film.

Looking for a good apartment in Cedar Rapids

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m relocating to Cedar Rapids for work and looking for a one-bedroom apartment with a budget of around $1,300/month.
I’m currently considering Oak Hill Apartments and NewBo Lofts, but I’d love to hear from people who live there or have lived there recently.
How is the management, maintenance, noise level, and overall living experience at these places? Would you recommend either one, or is there another apartment complex you’d recommend in my budget?
Any advice or honest experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
