Chinagraph editor, Thomas Ostuni, donated his time and creative eye to a recent pro-bono project for Made in NY which is the Mayor's office of Film, Theater and Broadcasting.  Ostuni was assisted by Shane DeBlasio on the PSAs.  The campaign was thoughtfully directed by Otis of The Artist Company who introduces viewers to various members of film crews shooting within New York City.

All of the PSAs focus on the issue of filming in NYC from a more humanistic approach and we get to know people like Jono, Rebecca and Stephen who explain their personal connection to the film world.

Ostuni worked with footage of eight different crew workers to create the eight :30 PSA campaign.

NYC TV's City Scoop featured the campaign and a few words of support from Ostuni as well as Rosemary Quigley, Executive Producer of Chinagraph.
