Let's Get This Party Started!

Welcome to the blog for Coffee N Donutz Productions.

Who are we?  We are three women who adore film and are passionate about creating quality, award winning productions from right here in Seattle, Washington.

We met on the set of a local independent film production.  Several months after our award winning film premiered at STIFF (Seattle True Independent Film Festival) we gathered together to watch a fellow colleague compete on the SyFy channel show Face Off and the idea of an all female production company was born.

Immediately we met to decide what sort of films we would want to make and placed an ad on a local posting board of the NWFF (North West Film Forum) for script submissions.  We received an overwhelming selection from local screen writers and have officially optioned two screenplays!

We have been hard at work tapping into the Seattle area talent pool to create an award winning short film which will eventually become a trilogy.  The director and other key production team members have years of experience and have proven their abilities on numerous other projects.  We have already secured a location as well as most of our crew.  We are in the process of casting our two principal actors as well an excellent featured principal - the car.

Picture if you will.....

A man wakes up behind the wheel of a car with no memory, a gun, and a woman in the trunk.  Intrigue and action ensue as the mystery of what happened the night before unravels..............

This blog will detail our efforts as well as give you a behind the scenes look at what it takes to bring a production, even a small one, to life - outside of Hollywood.  To keep up on all the exciting happenings for our first project "Reversal" by Jen Page you can "like" us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.  We are social gals and love making new friends so spread the word to all of yours!
