Welcome to BigScreenBiz.com

I'm interested in some clips for the holidays. Just some ten-second clips saying "Happy Holidays", "Happy Valentine's Day", etc. to place after the trailers and before the feature. What I'd really like is a place to do custom work. Any ideas?

Filmack Studios in Chicago (www.filmack.com) has been doing custom announcement trailers since I was a kid (and that was a long time ago!).

Thanks Larry. That's just what I was looking for. Have you ordered from them before? Are they expen$ive?

Haven't ordered personally in a long time (it's been several years since I've actually owned a theatre). But one of my drive-in accounts uses them for everything, right down to getting classic "Star Spangled Banner" and "Let's All Go To The Lobby" trailers from the 1950s.

LEE <> Been a while since I bought anything from Filmack, but they were always very reasonably priced, and a nice outfit to do biz with... They can custom make anything you want, if it isn't a stock item, but they have a wide assortment of stock subjects along the line you asked about...

Robbie Mack is a good friend, and a regular at the trade shows. Here is the contact information:
