CRUMLIC NEWS SERVICES HAS EVOLVED!
Since the inception of Crumlic News Services back in September of 2002, CNS has grown and evolved from simple freelance spot and assignment TV news video to complete video production and now feature film. Over the past few years it has become apparent that the change in the company focus and direction was not being accurately reflected in the Crumlic News Services name. The time has come to make changes that will serve the company well into the future of the constantly evolving and changing field of video production and media.
Although our focus is now commercial & event video production, documentaries and film making, we still have roots in and provide our legendary services to television, web, radio and print news. All of the present television news services remain available to current and future news clients. As our stock of professional gear for high level video production continues to expand - news clients will continue to see an even heavier focus on quality of the video news products from us. We will continue to expand event video, commercial and corporate video production to new levels and provide the exemplary customer service for which the Crumlic name has earned a great reputation.

The past eight years has brought us wonderful clients and projects. Our first feature length film "On Point: The Legacy of Jeff Korba" is completed and in the promotions and distribution phase and doing quite well.

In early 2009 we purchased our first HD camera (seen on the title bar of the website) the AG-HVX-200A. This camera is an amazing peice of hardworking professional equipment and a significant step up from our overworked Canon GL2. A Sennheiser wireless microphone kit with both lav and stick mic was added to the equipment package rounding and other equipment was sent to be factory refurbished. We have entered 2010 with a feature film under our belt and the gear to continue our advancement in video production. The future is filled with continuing projects and new projects making it very bright and exciting!
PROJECTS NOW UNDERWAY
Presently, I am working with IrishJacks to produce a series of short film children's stories about the adventures of a group of Irish Jack Russell Terriers. These stories will be told in the fashion of the 1982 movie Homeward Bound.
A second video is nearing completion for Saint Philips Episcopal Church in Manhattan and the coming 2010 season of the Verdi Square Festival of the Arts will soon be upon us with fresh work and videos.
I continue to work with my dear friends David and Amy Stravitz of the eDavid Gallery and Great Notions Corporation and look forward to the next show at their gallery in Bethlehem. Just one block away from the eDavid Gallery is another fabulous client the Historic Hotel Bethlehem with whom we have produced a guest targeted video and two television commercials.
I am thrilled to announce the addition of Agora Gallery in Chelsea to the family of Crumlic Media arts clients. Their first video will be completed in early February and posted on their site and here on the new Crumlic Media site.
I look forward to returning to WFMZ-TV/DT 69 News as a "fill in" photog and Assignment Editor in late January and of course I always enjoy working with my friends at Service Electric Cable TV 2 News when the opportunities present themselves.
