Here at PACT-TV, we're changing things up a bit. We've created a new format for our long-running show "TV & Film Focus." The show is still all about local creatives working on TV, Film, & Web Series production.... but now we have a permanent panel of locals involved in different aspects of the growing local production scene.

​

Permanent panel members include:

Francis Heid, Film Producer.

Brandon Cole, Death Calm Studios & local crew liaison.

Keely Gelineau, Polished Perception, local production and casting.

​

Along with your host, Actress & Writer Victoria Main.

​

And of course, we'll still be bringing in special guests to talk about everything that's going on in our region.

​

The March 9 episode of TV & Film Focus, featured our regular panel, plus special guest Melodie Bahan, Executive Director of the Minnesota Film & TV Board.
