It is June and that means summer is finally here. With that being said, it also means that my time here at JCALPRO is winding down to an end. It has been a very fast six months here at the BCEC. I honestly cannot believe that it is already over. …
That’s a Wrap, Folks!
It sure has been a busy few months for me; If it weren’t for the sun setting at 4 PM and the snow, I wouldn’t believe that it’s already December. But December it is, and much like my classes this semester, my time at JCALPRO is coming to an end. …
Why is Hollywood Obsessed With Boston?
As someone who’s both a fan of film and a life-long resident of Massachusetts, I love that there are so many films shot in and around the Boston area. However, despite the staggering number of films shot in the Bay State, I’ve never stopped to ask why Hollywood is so …
A Brief History of IATSE
Workers across America (and the world) owe a great debt to the work of Labor Unions. 40 Hour Work Weeks? Thank Unions. Labor Day? Thank Unions. A generally safer and more equal work environment? Thank Unions. We here at JCALPRO work a lot with the IATSE Local 11, based a …
Catching Up
It’s weird to think that I’ve only been working at JCALPRO for two months. The summer may have started off slow, but by the end of August I’d already seen six shows come and go. There hasn’t been a lot of time for me to really digest all I’ve learned, …
Introductions are in order
Hello there! My name is Neal, and I’ll be taking over for Greg as JCALPRO’s co-op for the next few months (co-op, for those unfamiliar, is just another word for intern). So, you might be asking, who is this guy? Well, dear reader, I am a game design major at …
INTA Annual Meeting
This is the 141st year of the International Trademark Association annual meeting. Each year brand owners and professionals from around the world come together to show off their branded trademarks or their exclusive intellectual property.

What is PAX?
The Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) first started in 2004 in Bellvue, Washington. It was a 2 day event that had many big exhibiting companies such as Warner Bros, Ubisoft, and Microsoft. PAX has occurred yearly since then and has doubled in size each year until venue capacities have maxed out. …
SENA ’19
My second month here at JCAL is officially coming to an end and I cannot believe how fast the time flies right on by. The winter is finally starting to near it’s end according to Mr. Punxsutawney Phil, Seer of Seers, Sage of Sages, Prognosticator of Prognosticators and Weather Prophet …
The New Co-op on the Block
My name is Greg Westhoff and I am the current co-op here at JCALPRO. I will be taking over for Lauren and posting one of these at the end of each of the next five months. So I guess I should at least start things off by introducing myself a …
Massachusetts Conference for Women…and Farewell
This past December the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center held the annual Massachusetts Conference for Women. As a woman in Massachusetts working in an office with four other women (and one Brendan) it seemed like a good topic to write about. The Mass Women’s Conference is an annual event where …
Who is JCALPRO?
So, I’m sure all of you out there, my millions and millions of followers, have noticed me mentioning some of the people I work with here. You are certainly wondering, “Who is Paige?…Tell us more about Brendan!”. Well, your dreams are about to become reality, because I would like to …
What is the BCEC?
Hello all, I am back to share more thoughts with all of you. Now that I have been at Jcal for about two months I have learned a good deal about the company, but I still find myself intrigued about the space. The Jcal offices are located in the BCEC. …
Newbie Alert
Whale hello there (please refer to gif for reference to hilarious pun…) My name is Lauren. As was Josie, I am a Northeastern student who is co-oping with JCAL over the next six months. First and foremost, Josie was, I believe, a creative writing major. I am not, so, …
Hasta La Vista, Baby
Hello, and Goodbye For anyone who may have missed my first article – The Best of JCALPRO – allow me to re-introduce myself. My name’s Josie and I’m a Northeastern student currently co-oping here at JCAL. (P.S. Co-op is just fancy talk for intern, which is what I probably should …
