Hundreds of productions film in Georgia each year for a slate of movies, television shows, commercials and more — and that requires thousands of crew members on sets across the state.

A new online network hopes to speed up the process of connecting crew members with new work and has already caught the attention of thousands of users and some major films like “The Color Purple.”

On this edition of “Closer Look,” Impact CEO Tyler Mitchell talks about his plans for expanding the network as it launches in Atlanta.

“While there’s been a lot of technological innovations and advances in things like special effects and streaming over the years, the actual producing of movies and television shows hasn’t changed very much in the last 20 years,” Mitchell said.
