Gizmo Pictures begins a sister company, Gadget video, as an overflow valve outlet for an expanding Gizmo Pictures. Gizmo has historically been very community-friendly by offering services for a very low to no cost for programs and services that better our Topeka community. In order for these projects to still be accomplished and be high quality, Gadget will now be handling most of them.
