Filthy Grip Co.

"If the right decisions are made, I think Oklahoma has a chance to bring in more crew, and more large-scale shows/features, which will only build up the economy. Bringing more local businesses and manpower will help productions coming in to cut down on the need to rent from other states and fly in crew from everywhere else."

OF+MO to Sponsor Tulsa Music Cities Convention
OF+MO is proud to be a partner of the Tulsa Music Cities Convention to be held November 2-5, 2022, at various venues in downtown Tulsa. The convention will feature multiple days of music industry discussions, presentations, tours, live music performances, networking opportunities and more. As a sponsor of the festival, OF+MO will be featured on a panel, “Music & Film: Let the Two Industries Collide,” which explores how cities and states can support both the music and film industries while increasing workforce, business and creative collaborations and opportunities among them.
FEATURED LOCATION
Center of the Universe
Center of the Universe is one of downtown Tulsa’s most notable landmarks that annually draws thousands of visitors intrigued by the acoustic anomaly the site is known for. Accessible by a pedestrian bridge located near the Oklahoma Jazz Hall of Fame on W. Archer and N. Boston, the attraction itself is a modest concrete circle surrounded by a larger circle of bricks that creates a private echo chamber of sorts for individuals who stand within the concrete circle and produce sound that is amplified back to them much louder than initially produced. In addition to the mysterious phenomenon featured on site, Center of the Universe also boasts the stunning “Artificial Cloud” statue and offers scenic views of Tulsa’s downtown skyline. Audiences can see it on-screen in the premiere episode of the Paramount+ series “Tulsa King” starring Sylvester Stallone, which will air November 13.

FEATURED FILM CAREER
Jordan Wilson | first assistant director

"My favorite part of the Oklahoma film industry by far is the people I get to work with. Oklahoma is full of incredibly talented professionals, on both the cast and crew side, that I love getting to collaborate with. Working in film can be amazingly difficult with its long hours and sometimes stressful situations, but being surrounded by people you trust and enjoy makes the process infinitely easier."
