THE NEXUS ENTERTAINMENT GROUP

NEXUS FILMS, INC.

Nexus Films is a Limited Liability Company established for the purpose of developing and
producing feature motion pictures for distribution worldwide. Founded in 1992 and incorporated
in 1998, NEXUS Films, Inc., referred to as NEXUS, is an independent film company engaged in
the development and production of motion picture films for theatrical release. NEXUS has
produced films and video projects at cost-effective prices, including music videos, television
commercials, shorts, documentaries and the feature-length motion pictures, “Fifth Ward”
(1999), “Thug Life” (2000), “Diamonds of the Bantus”(2002), "The Dirty Third II: Home Sweet
Home" aka Survival of the Illest (2002), “My Big Phat Hip Hop Family”(2005),” Treasure in

Project named Desire” aka “Waters Rising” (2007), “Mike Jones: American Dream” (2007)
and “A Gangland Love Story” (2010). See attachment.

NEXUS' goals are to make films that will raise awareness in the African-American community
as well as entertain and exploit that awareness to a mass ethnic population.

Through the Fifth Ward Young Filmmaker's Project, an organization created by Greg Carter in
1991, Carter has instructed over fifty underprivileged inner-city youths in the art and craft of
filmmaking. The growth and intentions of NEXUS are related and linked to the community.

In July of 1999, Greg Carter formed NEXUS Entertainment, a multi-media entertainment

corporation. Under this new structure, NEXUS Entertainment now acts as the parent company
for the two subsidiaries, NEXUS Pictures and Playaz Circle Entertainment. NEXUS Pictures
now assumes the former role of NEXUS Films to develop and produce feature films. Playaz
Circle Entertainment was formed to license and release soundtracks for the feature films
produced by NEXUS Pictures. In June of 2000, a new division called NEXUS Interactive
Media was created to develop and license interactive gaming software based on films produced
by NEXUS Pictures.

The plans for NEXUS in the next year and a half includes the completion of the current film
projects, “Monica/Lapdance”, “The Blackman’s Guide To Understanding Blackwomen”, and
“Open All Nite”, and the completion of one or more additional films which are also in
development.

Latino organization fall in love and runaway together in a customized 1964 Chevy low rider.
Only later do they discover that the customized wheels and tires. (Elbows and Vogues) on their
getaway car is packed with 20 million dollars in drugs, which sets off a cross-country chase
involving both crime lords, the Russian Mafia. A fresh spin on William Shakespeare’s Romeo
& Juliet
"Monica/Lap Dance" - Drama - Monica’s pursuit of her life-long ambition of becoming an
actress and modern jazz dancer and an actress lead her to New York where she auditioned for
numerous ballet troupes, but was always turned away. Monica knew that it was her body-type.

struggling screenwriter who is also trying to find his way in show business. Under Monica’s
insistence, the two decide to return to Texas to plan their next move and care for Monica’s ailing
father. Left to pay her father’s medical bills, mortgage payments on the house and their own
living expenses the young couples savings are soon depleted. Months after their return her
father succumbs to the cancer. Fanatic about getting to Los Angeles and following their dreams,

dance at Treasures, a popular strip club in town. Terrance reluctantly agrees, but can their
relationship withstand the seductions and temptations of the club.

"The Blackman’s Guide to Understanding Black Women" - Feature-length motion picture

under development. Drama/Comedy- From a black Blackman’s point of view, the film
chronicles the problems that exist in black relationships by following the interwoven stories of
three family-related couples. Inserted throughout the film are several "interview snippets" where
black women speak frankly into the camera on various controversial subjects. Interview topics
include, "Mr. Right", "Those _____Black Men", and "Ain't nothin' going on but the rent." Film
will be similar to a "black" When Harry Met Sally (i.e., a black Blackman’s response to Waiting

the story of underworld courier MARY JONES (LisaRaye), aka Fabulous. A young, beautiful

political affiliation allows her to move freely through the various neighborhoods, however, on
this night, things are different. A routine delivery of a black canvas bag from Hugo the Huge, a
fat black man who controls pornography and prostitution, to Virus, leader of the Skinheads,
starts a chain of events that even she can't control. As more cash is added to the bag from her ex-
lover, Carlos Padrone of Little Mexico, on to Wu Chan, boss of Chinatown, her fears are
screwed tighter. Convinced she is only making a payoff, she comes face to face with Senator
Roger Stillwell, only to witness his assassination and become its prime suspect. With only her
wits, Uncle Roy, and her mysterious mentor Eleganta (Pam Grier) to guide her, she fights to
prove her innocence while trying to stay alive. The film is filled with twists, turns, subplots,
crooked cops, violent deaths, lies and deception. “Ghetto Fabulous” reflects the promise of
the American Dream in the gleaming, mirrored surface of spilled blood.

comet crashes into the Earth, causing political and economic anarchy. A heroic figure, whom the
masses call the Father, rises to power after helping end the food riots and rebuilding the
infrastructure through radical, new technological advances. This sets up the formation of a
"revelations" type one-world government (i.e., one religion, one language, one currency). Now

records in the early 90’s. Following that period he began working with Greg Carter on numerous
music videos and short film’s. John also worked as a 1st ac, 1st and on numerous local indie films
in the mid 90’s. I worked as a P.A., camera assistant driver and extra on the motion picture
Jason’s Lyric. Since that time John has served as a Co-Producer and Production Manager
worked on 5Th Ward, Thug Life, The Dirty Third & Dirty Third II: Home Sweet Home, The
Charmer, and Diamonds of the Bantu.
Duties as VP of production and development place John in a central position to shepherd the
cinematic process from its inception through delivery. These duties begin with a thorough
reading of the script and analyzing the complexities involved in the production of the piece.
Each project has it’s own unique set of issues that must be worked out and adjusted too. John’s
major duties include the generation of the script breakdown, production board, location analysis
(grouping multiple locations into one is always a goal too save time and money) and the days out
of days. Following this step the process of locating the best crew possible begins, with crew
chemistry being an import aspect of this process. Once that goal has been obtained the next duty
is finding the best rates possible for the various components required too begin production,
camera gear, grip and electric, catering, insurance, sag rates rules and regulations, editing, film
stock, film development, set communication, honey wagons and motor homes. Once production
has started John’s focus shifts to one of being a “problem solver” in the event a problem should
pop up, this entails quick thinking intertwined with the ability too “keep the team cohesive” and
moving forward. The cinematic process is a difficult one but it’s one that I love and always do
my best to achieve the finest product possible.
