Serious.
Totally agree with you there.

I got a place in Vegas about 5 mins off the strip for a good price, I am in the right zoning and the landlord knows what we do. I think the neighbouring companies might know too, but obviously we are not advertising what we do.

We have a reception/green room area with a flat screen for the boyfriends and suitcase pimps. The next area is where we have our editing suites. We have 4 stations set up, 2 are dedicated to editing, one is for Bob the programmer and one for myself.

In the back we have the warehouse with a roll up door and 16 ft ceilings. At this time we have 3 sets built in there but we have room for more. We are constantly thinking of new set ideas and colors. We have plenty of room to drive in a couple of exotic cars and I would like to build a shop with some of those with a nice checkerboard floor sometime soon.

I am building a make up station in the back as well. (almost done)
i shot in houses and apts for years and I couldn't be happier with this place, it gives us a lot of new options and whenever I feel I overshot a set I change it out. We have "flats" and working in that type of environment is very nice.

I am open if any shooters in las Vegas or traveling to Vegas need a place to shoot other then a dull hotel room.

Will post some pics soon.
