Bush developed this company because of so many entertainment economies popping up around the country (Mississippi, Alabama, etc.). FTE's biggest client is Red Stick Studio Development, LLC which plans to build a $955 million studio city in Baton Rouge. The development itself will be a full service production facility with 18 soundstages, full postproduction, location equipment rentals, a hotel and other living accommodations; the whole nine yards. As of May 2009, this studio development has not begun construction.
Bush's new entertainment company, Resurgent Entertainment, LLC, is the exclusive production company for this studio development. The company has an entertainment fundthat will undertake co-production deals with film producers/production companies. Resurgent will exclusively produce "non-toxic" motion pictures, television, music and video games. Projects include a post-Hurricane Katrina documentary, The Kindness of Strangers and a music project entitled The Gospel According to Hip Hop.
In 2007, Mr. Bush became a founding member of the Louisiana Entertainment Industries Association, Inc., a non-profit trade association whose purpose is to lobby policymakers and endorse industry professionals and entrepreneurs. Bush currently serves as LEIA's Executive Director.

Famous quotes containing the word work:
“To see distinctly the machinery—the wheels and pinions—of any work of Art is, unquestionably, of itself, a pleasure, but one which we are able to enjoy only just in proportion as we do not enjoy the legitimate effect designed by the artist.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
“The poet needs a ground in popular tradition on which he may work, and which, again, may restrain his art within the due temperance. It holds him to the people, supplies a foundation for his edifice; and, in furnishing so much work done to his hand, leaves him at leisure, and in full strength for the audacities of his imagination.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
