With the expertise of the professionals at Real to Reel, King's University recently completed the second year of a multi-year agreement for the TNT TV show 'Hawthorne,' starring Jada Pinket Smith. The series used our closed hospital for its main hospital site, as well as for other sets and production offices. As the only accredited Pentecostal/Charismatic University in L.A., The King's had originally acquired the facilities to use as a primary campus for the school. Hosting film productions was not in our plans, nor in our area of expertise. Nevertheless, we have been pleased to make productive use of the facility to generate new revenue. Real to Reel handles nearly all aspects of the various filming activities that occur there, from managing the TV show 'Hawthorne' for approximately 7 months out of the year, to bringing in other short-term bookings while 'Hawthorne' is on a 5 month hiatus. This former Northridge Medical Canter probably ranks as one of the busiest closed hospital locations in the L.A. area, thanks to the professionalism and diligence of RTR.
