The Southwest Alternate Media Project (SWAMP) Salon is proud to reschedule its salon and is proud to be hosting the Astrodome Studios Campaign coming up Tuesday, October 7, 2008 at the Rice University Media Center. IT'S FREE! The Rice University Media Center is located at the corner of University Blvd and Stockton, entrance #8 on the Rice University Campus. The Astrodome Studios, the new name tied to the future of Houston's and Texas' film and entertainment industry, is a concept aimed at transforming the former stadium into a major sound stage and production facility. How can this be accomplished and how will it affect you and the industry? Come meet project founders Elise Hendrix and Cynthia Neely as well as Lorrie Foreman, one of the country's foremost structural engineers. They believe the historic landmark can become "Hollywood's Dome Away from Home." Lorrie is Senior VP of Irvine Team, a partner of Astrodome Studios and a global design and construction firm specializing in mammoth conversions such as the $95 million transformation of the Compaq Center into Lakewood Church. Also attending will be Astrodome Studios marketing director Bob DeLeon (DeLeon Design Creative Communications) and future Dome tenants who are ready to sign a lease when the deal is done! Learn more about this campaign, the production and office space that will be available, and what you can do to help make it all a reality. This will make a grand production incentive for all of Texas. The Mix, Mingle and Munch will begin at 6:30PM. The presentation will be headed by Cynthia Neely, Elise Hendrix and Lorrie Foreman at 7:30PM. This salon is FREE to the public (donations appreciated for food and beverages) For more information about how you can help, email SWAMP at Swamp@Swamp.org or call them at 713.522.8592.
