The Creator and the Workshop

George Butiri of North Olmsted, Ohio became an aspiring actor in 1999. He took classes, went to competitions in Los Angeles, but realized that he needed to improve his talent resume before he moved out there.

He came back to the Cleveland area and got involved in many independent film projects. After 5 years of acting, he asked one of his friends, director Bill Alexander, how he could get started in the film making industry. Bill told him that all he needed was a camera, a bunch of friends, and a good story.

Many [Telly Awards] and [Communicator Awards] later, after finishing many films, George is spreading his knowlege with others on how to become successful film makers in the Cleveland market. How did this come to be, you ask?

Too many people approached George and asked him to place them in his films. He gave them advice, and even created a website and a web blog with plenty of advice. He eventually decided on creating something similar to the 48 hour film project, only spanned over 4-6 weeks.

The Workshop was born!
