Detroit, MI, May 19, 2009 --(PR.com)-- M L Davis, founder of the Motor City Film festival returns to Detroit to bring more notoriety to the growing film industry in Michigan, with DOC Entertainment. Detroit, with it's failing automotive corporations and massive job loss is in need of the "Motown Rebound."

He's looking for Grips, gaffers, Light and sound, script supervisor, Hair & Make-up, wardrobe, location scout, PA's and local talent for his directorial debut, Summer 09 project.

With his expertise, ML will be able to bring films and national talent, not only to Detroit, but to other Michigan cities that lack the "know-how" to work the "Hollywood machine".

ML is by no means, new to the business. ML moved to Los Angeles in the late 70’s, and has worked in the capacity of Actor, Talent Agent, Talent Manager, Literary Agent, Casting Director and Producer. Casting several music videos with MegaLarge Entertainment ("Hypnotize" Notorious B.I.G., "To Live and Die in L.A." Tupac) and moving up to No Limit Films as Casting Associate. Films such as “I Got the Hook-Up” and also “Foolish.”

ML established d8 Entertainment a Casting and Production company in 1998 casting the international and controversial hit video “Windowlicker” for AphexTwin a British electronic music pioneer. Now with DOC Entertainment, ML will help to bring diversity to the new media of internet television, as well as telephone movies

M L returned to Detroit in 2001 to work as Associate Producer on M & L Entertainment’s production of Envy and has also worked as an Extra’s casting Assistant on two additional films shot in Detroit, 8 Mile and M V P. ML is also producing a national cable Hiphop informational and Music Video show called "7 Mile 2 Belle Isle" with host PARELLEE, based in Detroit, and a Gospel Video show called “New Dimensions in gospel with Bobby Parker” .

ML became the founder of the Motor City International Film Festival, while working on two film projects at the same time. "My goal was to prepare the locals in Detroit for the influx of films that were making there way into the city" says Davis. "I knew Detroit was a viable place to showcase talent, the equipment accessibility and a great backdrop to shoot Hollywood style movies, without going to Canada to portray our own city."

Now in Atlanta M L and DOC Entertainment has brought their expertise to the Metro Atlanta area to help diversify the growing TV and film industry, and plans to do the same for Detroit.
