Capital City Entertainment is the only full feature service film production company in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. CCE is actively engaged in the business of producing full length feature films that are distributed worldwide and have significant brand licensing appeal. The company is based in Alexandria, VA and was founded in 2004 by Scott Schafer and John Carter. CCE has a management team with over 20 years experience in commercials, TV and feature films. They target today's markets and popular formats by combining a compelling script with a strong cast. CCE also utililizes 24 high definition film with state of the art digital editing system. Carter, the director/ producer, and his writing partner and co-producer Scott Schafer, are in the forefront of a revolution in film making economics. The film industry is shifting to multi-tier digital distribution, vastly increasing the need for fresh, lower cost content. Carter and Schafer utilize an innovative approach to film making that enables them to make Hollywood quality films at a fraction of the cost and a fraction of the time. The team was able to complete and sell their first feature film, FATWA, in 9 months for under $1 million. Remarkably, Cap City recouped a quarter of its investment before the DVD release. The filmmakers also recently partnered with Paradigm (Saw, Capote) to package and sell their next film and two others - all to be delivered within 18 months. CCE develops finances, produces and distributes films for TV and worldwide theatrical distribution.
