Hal J. Lewis has been serving the film, video and photography community for the last 24 years. With dozens of feature credits, hundreds of episodics and thousands of commercials and music videos to his credits, Mr. Lewis is a seasoned professional. In the production of the Academy Award winning movie, "The Artist", Hal Lewis, in his capacity as head of the video and audio department, was an integral crew member. "The Artist" was the big winner at the 84th annual Academy Awards, taking home Oscars for best picture, best director and star Jean Dujardin, who beat George Clooney in the battle of the charmers.

Terms of the contract gave Mr. Lewis one third ownership of MarijuanaInc.TV, while Marijuana, Inc. gained one third ownership of Glass Slipper Studio (www.glassslipperstudio.com) with an option to purchase a greater percentage of Glass Slipper Studio. Lewis stated, "I believe that we share a vision, and with the tools that we have, we can help bring clarity to the issues surrounding cannabis and hemp. Someday I'd like to know that I helped bring positive change to the world." David Tobias, President of Marijuana, Inc. agreed, "We're privileged to have Hal join our team, and we've hit the ground running with loads of content to be edited. We intend to focus on producing the kind of videos that will catch everyone's interest; in November, when voters get the right to express their views, we want MarijuanaInc.TV to be a hub for information and entertainment, and having Hal Lewis and Glass Slipper Studio on our team means that our content and quality will be second to none."
