The Wolfpack Film Group, a consortium of independent filmmakers in Austin Texas, wrapped on 48 hours of artistic exercise at "Austin's
Most High-Tech Home," a $3.5 million estate in the Hill Country, July 13th. The group, founded by Producer Robin Blesch, WPFG Studios,
brought together over 100 people from multiple entertainment-related industries from all over Texas and other states for creative play in
the name of art.

Austin, Texas (PRWEB) July 17, 2008 -- The Wolfpack Film Group, a consortium of independent filmmakers in Austin Texas, wrapped on
48 hours of artistic exercise at "Austin's Most High-Tech Home," a $3.5 million estate in the Hill Country, July 13, 2008. The group, founded
by Producer Robin Blesch, WPFG Studios, brought together over 100 people from multiple entertainment-related industries from all over
Texas and other states for creative play in the name of art.

Thirty-seven models and actors role-played while eight photographers and one video crew followed the living art unflowing on the canvas
of the estate. A video from this weekend can be seen below:


Work/Play took on a serious tone as CSA Casting Director Barbara Brinkley and Talent Agent Justin Brown of JB Models and Talent
closely watched the attendees. Brinkley, who has been in the business for over 30 years and cast for most of Hollywood's top studios,
gave advice and answered questions about the industry.

"Robin has started something unique and good, this is not a typical photography event," said Justin Brown, who moved from Los Angeles
to start the modeling and talent agency.

Michael Morlan, a prominent Director of Photography in Texas, participated as a lighting and directing mentor, and Robin Blesch acted as
creative director, producer and host.

What started as a portfolio-building workshop for local actors and models evolved into a event culminating with several of the models
selected for representation by JB Models and Talent. Some of these models will be attending the IMTA (International Models and Talent)
in New York next week with their new photos.

Blesch said, "Finding, connecting, and hiring talented people is my job. The weekend's success is partially due to the fact that the many
Wolfpack Film Group members that took on this project not only work well with each other but also welcomed new faces. My crew worked
as hard as they could, and so did the Talent. I love hosting these events, because they open the doors of opportunity to people. I want to
thank all who participated with us (http://www.wpfgstudios.com/workshops/crew.html)."

The Wolfpack Film Group is a consortium of production companies, producers, directors, writers, filmmakers, and support crew
members, and in only a few short years the Wolfpack has risen to prominence in Austin under Mrs. Blesch by pooling their resources
much like a studio system to make feature films, music videos, commercials, and more.

In 2007 WPFG Studios produced 47 global commercials for Match.com (which still run on Myspace and Yahoo, and are currently spoofed
on Youtube), and brought other out-of-state projects to Austin. The Wolfpack Film Group has worked with agencies from LA, Boston, and
New York on projects like this Maidenform bra commercial -- http://www.wpfgstudios.com/adwork/index.html.

pre-production on their next feature film to be shot on a remote island in the Caribbean this year (more information on that film to be
released soon). Post-production on their last feature film "Anything for Now," should be complete by the end of the year.

My name is Vicky Brago-Mitchell. These
images are based on a new kind of math
called fractal geometry, developed in the
1970s and 80s by French mathematician
Benoît Mandelbrot, and are created by
repeating simple patterns billions and trillions
of times. Until today's fast computers became
widely available, only mathematicians had
seen fractals; now everyone can enjoy their
intricacy and beauty.  Also visit
