“From Behind the Lens to Center Stage: Shari Hamrick Grewal’s Journey to Mastering the Art of Film Production”

I would say anything for me that I do that are 3 million and under, and 2 million and under, et cetera, we can turn them around and get them done and out in a year. What broke that for us was 2023, though we were, you know, shooting things in 2022 and early 2023 till about June, and then the strikes happened. But the writer strike and the stuff. So, we were not able to, even though we had one of the movies in the can finished, we were not able to finish the editing on it because the ADR and things like that were stopped due to the strike and being a low budget movie, we were not willing or financially able to sign the waiver that the unions were offering to do. So we actually had to sit. So, it’s these next few movies are going to take two to three years to get out. So that really kind of, and then I found also it’s really difficult to set these next few up because all of the productions that got stopped in 2023 got pushed into 2024. So everything I had scheduled for 2024 got bumped because 2023 kind of replaced it. They’re like, hey, we have contracts that we have to execute. We can’t pay the current 2024 stuff because now we’re having to clean up 2023 and finish those things. And so now we got pushed to 2025 and 2026. And one of them now is 2027 before it’s never going to get made.
