Lukemans score CIB sweet spot
Oh, dearest readers, how hard it is sometimes to restore the steady flow of C-U Blogfidential content after being off task for a week or more! We thereby adorn this lovely Monday morning not with the overdue C-U Biz-en-scène we owe you, nor the New Art Film Festival submission details we know you crave, but a shout-out we intended to post last Friday as our “Image of the Week.” Since IOW will come ‘round in a few days to illustrate another topic, we’ll let this item stand on its own.
CUBlog friends Chris and Anne Lukeman, founders of commercial video firm Railsplitter Media and B-movie outlet Kill Vampire Lincoln Productions, have made the cover of a local publication! We’re a bit sad that it’s not our own but we can hardly fault Central Illinois Business for picturing our preppy Illini Film & Video alums on their February issue. A subsidiary title of the News-Gazette, CIB comes out monthly and caters to business professionals in the Champaign-Urbana area. One can find copies at select N-G news racks or access CIB online; go here to read editor Jodi Heckel’s profile of the duo behind THE TRANSIENT and ONCE UPON A TIME IN 1972 and 1973.
We hope to score autographed copies in the near future for our library in the Secret MICRO-FILM Headquarters, by the way. Just sayin’, wink wink nudge nudge.
