BIGGER/(GAME U)
If you’re strolling through the city, you may see the basecamp sign “GAME U,” which is the production alias for this show. Production for “Bigger” began in April and will continue until the end of Jun.
The upcoming BET show produced by Will Packer follows Layne Roberts who is already skilled at second-guessing herself, so when her longtime boyfriend Greg proposes to her, it's easy to see why her answer is "maybe".
With Greg out of town for a while, Layne's friends convince her to take some risks - one such risk being Reggie Langford, an irresistible new feature in her already busy life.
Layne and her friends are determined to make the most of themselves, because life in your thirties doesn't have to be boring yet.
Joining Packer on the production are Sheila Ducksworth, Devon Shepard , Joe Genier, and Mike Elliot.
OZARK
If you’re around the city throughout the summer, you may the basecamp sign“KRAZO,” which is the production alias for the Netflix hit show “OZARK”. Producers are currently filming the third season in several parts of Atlanta.
Rather than the familiar skyscrapers and trading floors, "Ozark" explores capitalism, family dynamics, and survival through the eyes of (anything but) ordinary Americans.
Bateman serves as the executive producer and director with executive producer/writer Chris Mundy, and executive producers Bill Dubuque and Mark Williams.
The series is produced by Bateman’s Aggregate Films in association with Media Rights Capital for Netflix and was created by Dubuque and Williams.

MTV’s successful comedy show, “Nick Cannon Presents: Wild ‘N Out” is back for another season and is currently in pre-production in Atlanta.
Last year, executive producer Nick Cannon and Michael Goldman for NCredible brought the star-studded show to Tyler Perry Studios. It turns out, the booming film and entertainment scene was a good fit for the team, so they’re coming back this summer with even more episodes.
Each episode puts the red and black teams, comprised of new and returning cast members, against each other in some of the most hilarious, entertaining and outrageous games seen on television. Nick Cannon will lead his red team against a celebrity-guest led black team as the two teams try to best each other in ridiculous comic throw downs.
These games escalate with each act, all gearing up toward the “Wildstyle battle” to decide who takes home the coveted WNO battle belt.

"Greenleaf” takes viewers into the unscrupulous world of the Greenleaf family and their sprawling Memphis megachurch, where scandalous secrets and lies are as numerous as the faithful.
The series centers on the journey of estranged daughter and disillusioned preacher Grace Greenleaf (Merle Dandridge, “The Night Shift”) who has returned home after 20 years on the occasion of the mysterious death of her sister, Faith.
As she reenters the world of Calvary Fellowship World Ministries, the Memphis megachurch run by her powerful parents Bishop James Greenleaf (Keith David, “Community”) and Lady Mae Greenleaf (Lynn Whitfield, “The Josephine Baker Story”), it becomes evident that things are not as virtuous as they seem and that the family’s outward display of faith hides sin and misdeeds.
The series also stars Lamman Rucker (“Why Did I Get Married?”), Deborah Joy Winans (“Whitney”), Greg Alan Williams (“The Accountant”), Kim Hawthorne (“Switched at Birth”), Tye White (“The People Vs. O.J. Simpson”), Rick Fox (“Dope”), Desiree Ross (“Falling Skies”) and Lovie Simone.
