Kaleidoscope Film and Television has been registered in the State of Oklahoma and with the federal government. Its sole purpose is to produce and distribute film, television, documentary, and video projects in both domestic and international marketplaces as well as in all current and future distribution platforms. Focusing on entertainment projects based on ethnic, gender, and age diversity, the studio will produce projects that will reflect the ever-changing and ever-expanding world.
Focusing on low to medium-budgeted projects for film and television, Kaleidoscope Film and Television will gather the talents of individuals and production companies together under one banner to create a choir of voices. It will be located in southwest Oklahoma to maximize the talents from both coasts and receive the full benefit of their film incentives and temperate climate Currently, due to the financial challenges in the area, land and existing buildings are relatively inexpensive. The financial challenges will also make them more open to offering tax incentives for job creators. Additionally, the military bases and Native American populations will be huge assets to adding diversity to the studio projects.
The biggest fallacy in the film
industry and in the business world as a whole is that if you write up a
business plan, all you have to do is present it to investors and they
will write you a check. Even if you have the greatest of all business
plans in all of history, that's not going to happen. Business plans
tell investors what you are going to do. The meeting and subsequent
paperwork tell them how you are going to do it. The reality is that
the business plan only gains the investors' interest; it is the
presenter, in this case, producer, who gives them the confidence to
cut checks. Whether the producers write the plan themselves or hire
someone to do it, the greatest selling point is how well they know
the material and how they present it.

Horses
and Heroes is a Reality TV series, which combines the highly
effective Peer Support Therapy with Equine Therapy. Unlike most in
the genre, it will focus on healing and positive growth rather than
endorsing bad behavior. Each season will bring together veterans
from WWII to the current conflicts. They will be sharing their
challenges and supporting each other as they find new solutions to
their physical and emotional challenges. They know the talk,
because they have walked the walk. They see the dodges and will be
able to call each other on them. Sparks may fly. Tempers may flare,
especially when they force each other to face their ghosts. But
there will also be laughter and fun as they rebuild the comradery,
which kept them safe and strong. The snarkiness and practical jokes
between the branches doesn't simply end. There is always room for
just one more. This interaction will help them rebuild that sense of
brother and sisterhood they depended on while serving, which will
help them reclaim their civilian lives. When it airs, it will reach
into the homes of the veterans, who need to hear that they are not
alone, and give them information as well as permission they need to
also heal. They will help each other find their way back to the
world. Veterans can’t go back and make a brand new start; but they
can start from now and make a brand new end.
Shylon awakens in her egg. Alone and frightened, she cries. Mother comes to her and calms her fears. Yet, the comfort remains short lived as her fears and guilt force her to doubt herself and those who love her. Each step of the way, she is drawn closer to the truth of her soul. If she finds the patterns of her past and reclaims her ability to love, she will become an Divine messenger, who helps others ascend. If she fails, her anger and guilt will lead her to the one place God cannot go.
God Saw a Butterfly is a transformational parable, which was very loosely inspired by the saying, where a caterpillar sees death, God sees a butterfly.
The proceeds from God Saw a Butterfly will be used to produce the TV series, Horses and Heroes. Combining Peer Support with Equine Therapy, Horses and Heroes will empower veterans to heal and reclaim their lives.
God saw a Butterfly is available as an Amazon Kindle and as a PDF on the author's website. To learn more about Horses and Heroes and to buy God saw a Butterfly click here.
A positive brand reputation is as important to a corporation's success as are the tools and venues it uses to create the brand. Animal assisted therapy helps heal the mind, body and soul of those who have been challenged through illness, accidents, or life experiences. Dogs, and horses closely followed by cats are the most common therapy animals: however, horses have the unique ability to reflect back the individual's emotions, thereby helping them to understand and control their triggers.
Raising the awareness of the benefits of animal therapy will lead to many more animals finding good homes, but it will also empower veterans and others to reclaim their lives.

The ghost of a murdered child bring his parents back
together after they have reincarnated. He needs them to remember
their lives together and forgive. If he succeeds, they will all heal
and he will be freed to also reincarnate. If he fails, their need
for revenge will damn them all
Elizabeth was asked
by her mentor to teach a writing course at a small college. Since
she never forgets a kindness, she reluctantly agrees. Arriving in
town, she instantly regrets her decision. She wants to run, but she
is honor bound to stay. Even
as the ghost of a small child begs her to forgive, the memories of
another time arouse feelings of hatred that she doesn't understand
and cannot control. When she meets Shane, all of their lives are
thrown onto a dangerous collision course from which they can neither
run, nor can they hide. The question is, "Can they overcome
their tragic past or will they be doomed to repeat it.
With the logline, "when love is forever, death is only the beginning, Never Can Say Good-bye is comparable to Ghost and The Others.
Kidnapped as a child, Rikki is forced to defend her life from her envious mother, who is more than willing to kill to steal her spiritual gifts. When Rikki escapes, Sandra turns her attention on others with power gifts, who are more vulnerable. Can Rikki find the strength and courage to once again face her mother and stop her or will Sandra use Rikki's guilt to weaken her to the point that she is unable save herself or anyone else?
Katherine
was born with the power to control the elements. Her whistle called
the winds. Her tears refreshed the earth. She was able to see into
the realms where fools and angels fear to tread. Her daughter,
Sandra, was born with gifts that were complimentary—or they should
have been. Sandra had the ability to nurture and heal. Her gifts
gave her the ability to see and heal others' pain. She could foresee
their destinies and give them the courage to embrace their futures
Yet, it was not enough. Sandra wanted more more direct control over
the world and the realms beyond. When her daughters' developed the
gifts she craved, Sandra's envy turned to hatred. When a voice from
the dark void reached out and asked, “What would you do to have
their power. Sandra replied, “Whatever it takes.”
Eye of Ra is an occult-horror, which is
comparable to The Exorcist and Amityville Horror with the tagline,
“when a mother eats her young, no one is safe.”
They raised their hand and swore
an oath to defend the country against all enemies both domestic and
abroad. They did their duty. They stood the line. They risked their lives. They took other
lives in defense of the nation. They
protected each other. They fulfilled their
commitment. They received their honors
as they took off their uniform and rejoined civilian life only to find that comradery that helped them through the challenges and stress of military service was also
boxed away.
While in service no brother or
sister in arms was left behind. However, many found themselves without a support
system to help them through the transition from military personnel to veteran. It
takes more than three hots and cot to move past the experiences that permanent
altered lives from the inside out. The
person, who raised their hand and took the oath, no longer exists. Whether combat or non-com, peace time or
conflict, putting on the uniform meant setting aside their individuality for
the good of the whole. Basic did more than train them for battle; it
broke down the barriers between them and rebuilt them as a unit, which is was
capable of working as single entity. Egos
were set aside. Their competition in
training strengthened and enhanced the whole. Their lives depended on their ability to trust
and rely on each other.
Civilians can’t or won’t understand. Serving is more than a job, it is who they
became as a person. They no longer saw
themselves as “I” or “me”, but as “us” and “we”. While civilians compete for themselves,
military personnel fight for the group.
That mindset doesn’t just end by taking off the uniform.

Traverse City MI The
new Reality TV series, Horses and Heroes announces the addition of Navy Seal veteran,
David M. Ferruolo to the team as Veteran Coordinator and Peer Support Team
Leader.
Many labels can be accurately
applied to Ferruolo: veteran, healer, author, adventurer, and video host-producer. A former Navy Seal and successful business
owner, Ferruolo is an accomplished musician, an avid hiker, kayaker, rock
climber, horse enthusiast, skier, and snowboarder. He has 100 plus skydives,
over 10,000 scuba dives to his credit and hosts his own TV series called NH
Alive.
He graduated Magna Cum Laude from
Southern New Hampshire University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology
and Suma Cum Laude from the University of New Hampshire with a Master’s Degree in
Social Work. Currently, he is studying
for his Doctorate at the Plymouth State University.
A published author of several
self-help books and numerous articles, Ferruole’s focus remains on veterans’
issues. As a Navy Seal, Ferruolo understands the
physical and emotional challenges that war brings into military personnel’s
lives. His interest in Equine Therapy
was prompt by his own life experience. The
positive affects Equine Therapy made in his own life led him write articles and
produce videos promoting its effectiveness on combat related issues. As a dynamic presence both in front of and
behind the camera, Ferruole uses his talents and unique voice to produce videos,
which show other veterans the healing and supportive effects of working with
horses.
Currently Ferruolo works at Health
First Family Care in their Psychotherapy & Behavioral Health department. His duties include individual and group
outpatient psychotherapy, resource support and advocacy for marginalized
populations, multidisciplinary collaborations, and team development.
Joining the Horses and Heroes
team as the Veteran Coordinator and Peer Support Team Leader, he will be a
major voice in deciding which veterans will be chosen to participate in the
program. His experience on and off the
battlefield gives him the leadership and the compassion to lead the peer group sessions
so that they will be beneficial to the participating veterans as well as the
viewers.
Horses and Heroes is a Reality TV
series, which will combine Equine Therapy with Peer Support to help military
personnel and veterans find new ways to cope with their physical and emotional
challenges. Each season will be set at
an existing Equine Center and will focus on telling the stories of eight
veterans. Although veterans can’t go
back and make a brand new start, they can start from now and make a brand new
end. David Ferruolo will be part of the
team that helps them find the strength and courage within themselves to build
that brand new end.
Horses and Heroes is a reality TV series, which promotes healing rather than bad behavior. Although Equine Therapy will be the stage, the focus will remain on the veterans and how their lives as well as those of their families were changed by the physical and emotional challenges brought into their lives by war.
Horses and Heroes has a ready made market with a demographic that crosses all ages, ethnic backgrounds, and genders, especially the 18 to 35 year age group, many of which are currently returning from service and are being discharged. Our target audience will also include military personnel, veterans, and their families from past conflicts.
Additionally, we will be hiring veterans, both those already in the industry and those looking for new careers, for the jobs behind the cameras.
Horses and Heroes is a Reality TV
series, which combines the highly effective peer support with Equine Therapy. Each season will bring together eight
veterans that will come from the broad veteran demographic. They will be
sharing their challenges and supporting each other as they find new
solutions. When it airs, it will reach into the homes of
the veterans, who need to hear that they are not alone, and give them the
information they need to also heal.
These days, the emphasis has been
on the veterans from the current conflicts; however, many of those from
previous wars never had a chance to work through that they experienced. They pigeonholed their lives and tried to
leave their pain behind. But now that
they are reaching an age when they are starting to review their lives, that is
no longer so easy to do. For this
reason, Horses and Heroes will not only attract the prized 18-35-year-old demographic,
but also those who served in the Vietnam, Korean, and WWII.
While in service no brother or
sister in arms behind. Although most of
the attention and support has been focused on the veterans from the current
conflicts, many from the previous conflicts never receive the help and support
they needed to heal through their physical and emotional pain. Horses and Heroes will be bringing veterans
of all ages, ethnic backgrounds, and both genders together. It’s never too late to heal and come back to
the world. Transportation, housing,
food, and therapy as well as a small stipend for the eight veterans in the
program will cost $3,500.00 for each. We
are asking for the support of individuals and organizations to help us with
these costs.
Advertising is a necessary part
of every successful business venture. It
not only makes the customers aware of the products available, but it also gives
brand recognition. We are looking for corporate sponsorship to cross brand with
Horses and Heroes. Sponsoring Horses and Heroes through
cross-branding will create positive PR in a cost effective manner, while
setting an industry standard for social responsibility. We are offering an updated version of
cross-branding Mutual of Omaha did with its sponsorship of The Wild
Kingdom. In doing so, we will be
combining old school with today’s promotional techniques to create a whole new
marketing tool.
Supporting Horses and Heroes helps
to make sure no veteran no veteran is left behind. Please join our team by sponsoring a veteran
or by cross branding with Horses and Heroes. There are also investment opportunities still
available.
Horses and Heroes is a reality TV series, which promotes healing rather than bad behavior. Although Equine Therapy will be the stage, the focus will remain on the veterans and how their lives as well as those of their families were changed by the physical and emotional challenges brought into their lives by war.
Veterans supporting veterans has always been more effective than working with civilian therapists. They have been there and done that, which is why they know when to cut slack and when to call the other on the BS.
Each season, Horses and Heroes will bring together eight veterans, who want to reclaim their lives from their physical and emotional challenges. They will support each other as they work with the horses and tell their stories.
Veterans can't go back and make a brand new start, but they can start from now and make a brand new end. Together they will give each other the strength and courage they need to change their directions of their lives toward the new end.
A chance meeting created Horses and Heroes. I met an elderly
gentleman in the Borders café. He was wearing a hat that identified him
as a veteran. I thanked him for his service and we started chatting
about his experiences in WW II. At the time, I was mentally taking
notes for a scripted series I was writing called, Operation Home Base;
however, our conversation showed me that I had the means to help in a
very meaningful way.
His name was William Greene. Decades later,
he still hadn’t come to terms with his guilt and regret. He survived,
but his many of buddies didn’t. He killed good men just because of
where they happen to be born. Through him, I connected the dots between
Operation Home Base and another project, which lead to the creation of
Horses and Heroes.
It is easy to get political and throw verbal
rock at individuals and agencies. But what good does it really do?
Pointing out the problem doesn’t create solutions. Everyone knows what
needs to be done. But many people are too busy pointing fingers to
actually find answers.
Horses and Heroes is my solution. It is a
Realty TV series that focuses on healing rather than glorifying bad
behavior. Working with the horses helps veterans find new ways to cope
with their physical and emotional challenges. Telling their stories in a
safe, supportive environment gives them the means to face their ghosts
head on. Horses and Heroes can’t get them back what they lost. War
took that person. Yet it doesn’t have to be the end of their story. One
of my favorite sayings is, “You can’t go back and make a brand new
start, but you can start from now and make a brand new end.” Horses and
Heroes will help veterans find the strength and courage within
themselves to rebuild their lives and create that brand new end.
Everyone
serves in the own way. Although, I don’t have the temperament for the
military, I greatly respect those who stand the wall. I choose use my
talents to help veterans tell their stories in such a way that they will
heal themselves and show others that healing is possible.
Equine
Therapy does not involve drugs nor lying on a couch and spilling their
guts to a therapist. What it does do is help them find new ways to see
and react to their emotional triggers. It helps their bodies remember
how it used to work. It can't replace what was lost, but it can give
them the confidence to see that they are more than the sum of their body
parts and life experiences. Horses and Heroes will give veterans and
military personnel the information they need to find alternative healing
solutions, which can help lower the suicide rate.
Although
veterans can't go back and make a brand new start, they can start from
now and make a brand new end. Horses and Heroes is a Realty TV series
that will help veterans learn new coping skills, which will give them
the brand new end.
Reality
TV series continue to be a dominate genre in television programming.
However, while most current shows promote bad behavior, establish or
revive a career, and focus on selling a brand, Horses and Heroes will
take the genre into a positive direction by promoting healing and
empowering veterans to reclaim their lives. By combining the
spontaneity of a Reality show and the informational sharing of a
documentary with the in-depth personal sharing that happens during a
talk show, Horses and Heroes blazes a new genre trail.
Our
target audience will also include veterans and their families from
the past conflicts. The veterans from WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and the
first Gulf War fought different kinds of wars, yet they have much in
common The comradery of service is what kept many alive during their
time of service In foxholes, strangers became brothers. They watched
each others' six both in and out of battle zones. But it is also what
has been lacking in many of their lives As the eight veterans help
each other work through their individual challenges, they will
rebuild that same kind of friendship and support system not only
among themselves, but they will also awaken that spirit in the
veterans in the audience. By sharing their challenges and their
healing process, they will prove that no matter old the wounds it is
never too late to heal them.. Although Equine Therapy will be the stage, the
primary focus will be on the eight veterans as they sharing what they
experienced while they served our country and how those events had a
lasting effect on their lives as well as on those who love them.
Join our team and help our veterans rebuild their lives.
