Pasadena Magazine (July, 2011) featured an article showcasing Home Shoot Home and what we do best-connecting location managers and scouts with a location that suits their filming needs! While we encourage you to check the magazine article out yourself, we want to give you a little preview!
This article focuses on the expenses that are poured into maintaining a beautiful home, but then also highlights how homeowners can utilize the beauty of their home to make it create revenue for them. Russ Fega (The CEO of Home Shoot Home) first realized the need for location scouts to partner with a location company that had a unique knowledge and understanding of the available homes in a specific area in 2003. Home Shoot Home is set apart from other location companies because each home before being listed is evaluated for its character, location and accessibility to parking to ensure that it will work well for film crews. Most of Home Shoot Home’s available properties are in the San Gabriel Valley Pasadena California
The project that Home Shoot Home is most proud of won’t be at the box office anytime soon. The Altadena Community Chest is a non-profit organization that was started by Russ Fega. Traditionally, before a film production crew can start filming in a city, there are permits that must be acquired. The money from these permits goes directly to the city for development; it essentially is to compensate for the inconvenience that the people of the city experience. Because Altadena is an unincorporated community, it does not directly receive these funds. The Altadena Community Chest was created as a way for studios to give back to Altadena . These donations are distributed to organizations that directly benefit the people who reside in Altadena . If you would like to make a donation, or would like more information about the Altadena Community Chest, please visit http://altadenacommunitychest.org/.
