Arkansas NEW MEDIA INCENTIVES Program - opportunities for Film, TV, New Media Suppliers!
Greetings HHSE Friends & Followers - it's been MONTHS in the works, and the structural, operational and funding details are still being massaged. But the enthusiasm for the Arkansas New Media Incentives Program is at an all-time high. HHSE C.E.O. Eric Parkinson, along with media executive Wade Rivers, structured the proposal to create special incentives for media companies located within Arkansas. With the help and advice from Arkansas Senators Joyce Elliott, Greg Leding and Breanne Davis - along with House Reps. Robin Lundstrum, Denise Garner, Nicole Clowney, Megan Godfrey and David Whitaker - a jobs and incentives program was developed that is designed to create sustainable, long-term jobs for Arkansans working in the Film, Television and New Media Industries.
Below are a few "sample" pages from the 85-page plan drafted by HHSE C.E.O. Eric Parkinson and the proposed legislation. With issues such as funding viability now resolved, there is confidence that this media / jobs program will be able to progress in the next step towards legislation. Watch for more details as they occur!
As they showed in the Schoolhouse Rock video about "A Bill" - the process is long and arduous... often compared to making sausage. But the victories go to those who are relentless, tireless and motivated, such as HHSE C.E.O. Eric Parkinson!

Parkinson and Wade Rivers were frequent faces at the Capitol in Little Rock throughout the spring legislative session - meeting with over 40 Representatives and Senators and getting 100% THUMBS UP for the New Media Incentives Program.
Little Rock Radio Executive Joel Ratliff is one of many business leaders to review and advise on the New Media Incentives Program. Other notable feedback was obtained from Stephens Group (financing), the Rockefeller Foundation (philanthropy), and representatives of Entergy (electical power utility).
