WRITER/DIRECTOR - This week’s guest is DOUG CONANT. Doug Conant is the founder of Group

Six Films. This is a motion picture production company which will revolutionize independent filmmaking by

implementing a cutting-edge low budget production model in the creation of studio quality pictures. The

focus is on stories and characters that immerse the audience in an honest, inspiring human experience. They

are dedicated to producing engaging cinema, both live action and animation that entertains and enlightens.

One of Doug Conant’s films was featured on the Fox Searchlight website. His film "Sleeping" was one of only

four films chosen for the New Filmmakers Festival and currently, Doug is hard at work on the script for their

first feature-length drama entitled, "The center of the Sun." This film will expand on the theme of

spiritual and emotional recovery from rape and assault. Group Six Films is teaming with industry veteran

Frank Metayer and Lief Productions for this project. "The center of the Sun" is supported by RAINN (Rape,

Abuse & Incest National Network), the largest anti-sexual assault organization in the USA, and Peace Over

Violence, the largest rape crisis agency in Los Angeles.
