Welcome! I (Jamie) will be your lovely blogger. I am an intern at Cine this summer, and I have been working with Cine doing team PR work with Creative Consultants, UGA's student-run PR firm, this past year. Cine is a gem of a place that needs to be discovered, hence the blog. Describing Cine can be difficult because it is so versatile. It's Athens' very own art house, movie theater, event space, and full bar. Cine shows movies ranging from Indie to foreign to Oscar winners like Slumdog and The Reader. Believe me, there is a movie for everyone here! And the event space is even harder to define because I'm pretty sure every event imaginable has taken place in the Cinelab. Wine tasting, rock concerts, poetry readings, trapeze shows, and even weddings have been held. The opportunites are endless, and part of my job is attracting new clients to the event space. I'm going to really work hard on bringing in Greek life for events such as date nights and formals.
Cine has created a new event this summer, the Summer Classic Movie Series. Annie Hall and Chinatown are definitely going to be shown, but we need more suggestions! E-mail us at info@athenscine.com or comment on this blog entry and let your voice be heard. Cine is your local movie theater and art house, so you should be the ones deciding what should be shown!
