UnSung on TVone

My client, actress  Toi Troutman will be featured on TVone's "UnSung"on November 2, 2009 at 8:00pm. along with her family, Snoop Dogg and DJ Quik.  I know you remember the songs "Computer Love" and  "California Love" featuring 2Pac and Dr. Dre. By the way, I was featured in the California Love Video. If your new to UnSung; it's a series that profiles some of the most influential, talented yet forgotten R&B, Soul and Gospel artists of the 1970's '80s and '90s.  I watched the show before when they profiled Shalamar. UnSung shows the true story of Black music in America and runs much deeper.  Make sure you check it out.

Point Foundation Charity Event in Hollywood, CA

I had the pleasure of attending the Point Foundation Charity in Hollywood. My client
Frenchie Davis was singing for the event. The Point Foundation provides financial support, mentoring, leadership training and hope to meritorious students who are marginalized due to sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression. The event was a class act 100%.  I really enjoyed myself, not to mention that the food was outstanding (yummy) and I was able to meet one of my all time favorite actresses Lily Tomlin....I love her.  Remember when she was in 9 to 5 with Dolly Parton and Jane Fonda, great movie.  Another one of my favs is The Incredible Shrinking Woman. To date, she is on the hit show Desperate Housewives. After Frenchie sang "I'm Changing" she got a standing ovation. Frenchie is so talented, and can sing like nobody I have ever heard.  Below are the photos from Point Foundation Charity Event.









Short Film One Nothing


Short Film "One Nothing" has been accepted at The Hollywood Film Festival. The film will be shown on October 23rd at 9:00 at the ArcLight Theater in Hollywood, California. 


Synopsis:
Sometimes imagination is enough

It's a hot summer day in Los Angeles when a young African American man (Dre Bowie)
Climbs a fence to play basketball on opposing turf. He soon discovers he's being watched
by two Hispanics (Gabe Lozano, David Rusi) and must decided how to diffuse the tension between them. What follows is an unexpected encounter and revelation. Carmine Giovianzzo from CSI:NY Lab

A bold look at sterotypes, imagination and urban decay, "One Nothing" challenges us to look beyound the surface for new answers to old problems. And sometimes, imagination is enough.

We Are Family




D.Woods, Frenchie Davis and Karlie Lewis just completed working on a new comedy entitled "We Are Family" The plot: Six strangers are invited to a home under false pretense and eventually find out they are all brothers and sisters. I was on set while they were filming at a beautiful house in malibu. I had the pleasure of meeting some of the cast; Chyna Layne (Precious: Based on the novel Sapphire) a very talented actress, Monique Coleman (High School Musical), Christian Keyes (Actor/Model) and Omarosa of whom I thought was very pleasant. Everyone on set was professional and everything went smoothly. I enjoyed meeting and working the crew from Tri Destined Studios, Trey (Director), Jeff, Indie and Veronica. I also had the pleasure of meeting Gregory Anderson (Stomp the Yard). All in All the film is hilarious and I can't wait till the film hit Theaters 2010. Check out the press photos.


Here are some behind the scene photos that I took with my camera...I guess you can add photographer to my many talents! LOL
