An article about what appears to be an unremarkable film studio. The author claims that sponsorship by Sony gives notability. This claim is not referenced, and I'm not sure how much this sponsorship means, if anything. Peridon (talk) 20:34, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The article claims that they produce films with "absolutely no budget" - this in itself could be a revolutionary feature. I wonder why they need sponsorship if they can do this? Peridon (talk) 20:36, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Any highschooler can make videos with their cell phone and upload them to YouTube with no budget. Zad68 17:01, 17 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Kids working as volunteers "supported by corporations" to make films for Youtube and Facebook with other volunteers is laudable, but not notable unless such work has received coverage in reliable sources. Lots of g-hits,[1] but no coverage in reliable sources. Fails WP:ORG. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 01:00, 17 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete clearly. No independent reliable sources. Association with Sony is unclear and undocumented, and notability is not inhereted anyway. Zad68 16:59, 17 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
