After airing a successful pilot season of their web series "East Willy B"—which takes a comedic look at the effects of gentrification in inner city neighborhoods—actress Julia Grob and writer-director Yamin Segal have big plans to release the show's first official season with an ambitious 12-episode order.
But before they can produce the new episodes (which they're hoping to premiere during Hispanic Heritage Month), the co-creators of the hit web series will have to raise $50,000, and they're hoping a new KickStarter campaign will help them reach that goal more quickly.
Julia and Yamin spoke to The Huffington Post about raising money for the series' first official season, the Latino celebs who have signed on to star on the popular web series, and why they hope to create the first community-funded Latino sitcom!

April Hernandez-Castillo got her wish!
Expecting her first child with husband Jose Castillo, the actress had her hopes set on a baby girl — and will, indeed, welcome a daughter in September.
“I wanted a girl and he wanted a boy, of course I would have been happy either way,” she tells People.
The couple — who were “excited” about finding out the sex — were taken by surprise when the doctor let it slip that they were having a girl during a recent ultrasound.
“The doctor did not warn us or ask us if we wanted to know the sex,...

More from the Latino scene from our woman in L.A., free lance festival programmer extraordinaire, Christine Davila, from her blog Chicana from Chicago:
Looking at yesterday’s announcement of Film Independent’s Los Angeles Film Festival reveals a healthy Latino presence among the 62 features and 48 short films in the program. Here’s how I break down the Latino/ Ibero/ U.S. Latino component of the program.
Chile continues to give Argentina a run for its cache of exciting and growing cinematic output from South America with the inclusion of Thursday Til Sunday (Isa & Distributor: FiGa) written and directed by Dominga Sotomayor ♀, in Narrative Competition.
Although the traveling Mexican film festival Ambulante is no longer a program spotlight, Mexican films continue to be a mainstay of the festival. There are four feature-length films and three short films from/about Mexico. In Narrative Competition, The Compass is Carried by the Dead Man (Isa: Kafilms, Argentina) written and directed by Arturo Pons [about a young Mexican aiming for Chicago], and in Documentary Competition, Drought by Everado González (recently awarded Best Documentary at FICG27) . Out of competition is the gorgeously shot documentary, Canícula, and although the funding is mainly stateside, Bernardo Ruiz paints a fascinating portrait of the risky journalistic practice and history of the seminal Tijuana weekly, Zeta in Reportero.
Also of note in the program is that four short films list Cuba as a co-production/origin of country.
But what of the U.S. Latino filmmakers and stories? Last year Los Angeles Film Festival was a great launchpad for Mamitas (Distributor: ScreenMedia, Producer rep: Traction Media), an authentic Chicano portrayal of young love set in Echo Parque written and directed by Nicolas Ozeki (a non-Latino), co-starring fast rising hot talents Veronica Diaz-Carranzo (Blaze You Out) and E.J. Bonilla. The film is currently in theaters now. (Big recommend,theater listings here-go support it!)
The closest we have to representing U.S. Latino in the features section is Four, the feature debut of Joshua Sanchez who hails from Houston, Texas. Based on a Christopher Shinn play, the July 4th-eve-set story is a snapshot of two disparate relationships tensely intertwined and their at-odd dynamics of desire. Coincidentally, E.J. Bonilla also stars (this guy is blowing up!). I would also include as U.S. Latino, Searching for Sugar Man, the documentary by Malik Bendjelloul about singer songwriter Sixto Rodriguez’s fascinating rise and fall into obscurity as a Uj.S. Latino story. As a matter of fact, the film seems to suggest that perhaps Sixto’s Mexican-American identity might have been a reason he was not embraced by the 60s and 70s mainstream. [Per Sydney: The film was snatched up at Sundance by Sony Pictures Classics and by Isa Protagonist who is screening it twice in Cannes.]
As for U.S. Latino shorts, Fireworks written and directed by Victor Hugo Duran, which is also incidentally centered around 4th of July, is an L.A. set story about boys trying to rap on girls.
My favorite Miami based hooligans, Jillian Mayer and Lucas Leyva, keep representing with their fresh and experimental short film, Life and Freaky Times of Uncle Luke. They are part of a collective of go-there filmmakers, Borscht Corp who had four crazy shorts screen at SXSW (and they were a riot to bootie shake dance with at SXSW Film’s Closing Night Party). You must carve out an hour and look at their work on the site (Nsfw!)
And lastly, in front of camera there’s some America Ferrera in Todd Berger’s It’s a Disaster (Isa: Maya), and rising boriqua actress April Hernandez Castillo, of hit webseries East Willy B, Dexter and other TV, is in The History of Future Folk [Per Sydney: one of 7 horror films in the festival, another being It's A Disaster per Dread Central, so take note Latino distributors like Lionsgate because horror films are a favorite of a certain Latino demographic!] by J. Anderson Mitchell and Jeremy Kipp Walker, described as a “sweet sci-fi musical comedy”. Below is the rest of the Latino and Ibero-American (includes Spain and Portugal). Descriptions provided by L.A. Film Festival, and bold cap commentary by me.
Narrative Competition:
o All Is Well – Portugal (Director Pocas Pascoal ♀, Producer Luis Correia Cast Cheila Lima, Ciomara Morais) – Strangers in a strange land, two beautiful Angolan sisters fleeing a civil war in their homeland struggle to survive in Lisbon. Pocas Pascoal’s deeply personal saga shows us the face of exile with quietly stunning power. North American Premiere
o The Compass is Carried by the Dead Man – Mexico (Director/Writer Arturo Pons Producer Ozcar Ramírez González Cast Gael Sanchez Valle, Pedro Gamez, Ana Ofelia Murguía, Eligio Melendez, Luis Bayardo, Marco Perez) – A young man and a dead man journey north through a subtly surreal desert landscape, picking up a wagonful of odd characters as they go in this darkly humorous satire of contemporary Mexico. North American Premiere
o Four – (Director/Writer Joshua Sanchez Producer Christine Giorgio Cast Wendell Pierce, Emory Cohen, Aja Naomi King, E.J. Bonilla) – Over the course of a steamy 4th of July night, a father and daughter, each trapped in loneliness, reach out for sexual connection — he with a self-hating teenage boy, she with a smooth-talking wannabe homeboy — in this psychologically complex, beautifully acted drama. World Premiere
o Thursday till Sunday – Chile (Director/Writer Dominga Sotomayor ♀ Producers Gregorio González, Benjamin Domenech Cast Santi Ahumada, Emiliano Freifeld, Francisco Pérez-Bannen, Paola Giannini) – With uncommon beauty and style, this Chilean road movie finds a family at a crossroads, as the daughter slowly realizes the divide between the adults in the front seat and the kids in back. North American Premiere
Documentary Competition:
o Drought – Mexico (Director Everado González Producer Martha Orozco) – Contrasting the lives of a cattle-ranching community with the arid northeastern Mexican landscape that surrounds them, this cinema vertité documentary paints a poetic portrait of a community on the verge of extinction. Us Premiere
o Sun Kissed – (Directors Maya Stark ♀, Adi Lavy ♀ Producers Jocelyn Glatzer, Maya Stark, Adi Lavy) – With remarkable strength of spirit, a husband and wife examine their lives and why their children and others have been struck with a rare genetic disorder in this powerful portrait of a small Navajo community. World Premiere ~ Okay Not Latino But It'S Native American So I’M Giving It A Shout Since There Are Not Enough Native American Stories.
International Showcase:
o Canícula – Mexico (Director José Álvarez Writers Sebastián Hoffman, José Álvarez Producer Mauricio Fabre Cast Hermelinda Santes, Esteban González, Mario García) – This is a hauntingly beautiful portrait of the rituals and crafts of contemporary Indians in remote Veracruz, who teach their boys to fly. ~ See My Interview With Jose Here.
o The Last Elvis – Argentina (Director Armando Bo Writers Armando Bo, Nicolás Giacobone Producers Steve Golin, Hugo Sigman, Patricio Alvarez Casado, Victor Bo, Armando Bo Cast John McInerny, Griselda Siciliani, Margarita Lopez) – John McInerny gives a staggering performance in this poignant tale of a Buenos Aires Elvis impersonator who only comes alive when he dons the King’s clothes to perform. How can he reconcile his dreams of glory with his dead end factory job and an estranged wife and daughter who can’t live inside his fantasies?
o Neighboring Sounds – Brazil (Director/Writer Kleber Mendonça Filho Producer Emilie Lesclaux Cast Irandhir Santos, Gustavo Jahn, Maeve Jinkings, W.J. Solha) – Kleber Mendonca Filho’s astonishing, suspenseful debut film focuses on one upscale street in the seaside town of Recife, where a private security team is enlisted to protect the residents from crime. By its startling conclusion, you feel you’ve seen all of Brazilian society exposed.
o The Strawberry Tree – Canada/Cuba/Italy (Director/Producer Simone Rapisarda Casanova) – Filmed in a small Cuban fishing village mere weeks before a hurricane decimated the entire region, this stunning documentary unknowingly captures the town’s final days even as it reframes the usual filmmaker-film subject relationship.
Summer Showcase:
o La Camioneta: The Journey of One American School Bus – USA/Guatemala (Director Mark Kendall Producers Mark Kendall, Rafael González, Bernardo Ruiz) – The journey and transformation of a yellow American school bus into a vibrant Central American camionetasensitively reveals both the beauty and violence of everyday life in Guatemala.
o Reportero – (Director Bernardo Ruiz Producers Bernardo Ruiz, Patricia Benabe, Anne Hubbell Featuring Sergio Haro Cordero, Adela Navarro Bello) – A look at the incredible danger facing journalists in Mexico through the eyes of investigative reporter Sergio Haro and other staff at Zeta, the defiant Tijuana-based newsweekly.~ See My Interview With Bernardo Here
o Searching for Sugar Man – (Director/Writer Malik Bendjelloul Producers Simon Chinn, Nicole Stott, George Chignell) – Years after fading into obscurity at home, the music of ’70s U.S. singer/songwriter Rodriguez became an underground sensation in South Africa. Decades after his disappearance, two fans uncover the startling truth behind the legend.
Beyond:
o Juan of the Dead – Cuba (Director/Writer Alejandro Brugués Producers Gervasio Iglesias, Inti Herrera Cast Alexis Días de Villegas, Jorge Molina, Andrea Duro, Andros Perugorría, Jazz Vila, Eliecer Ramírez) – The streets of Havana are alive with the undead in Cuba’s first zombie comedy, a wild and bloody romp that sinks its sharp satirical teeth into the Cuban body politic. Castro may not be amused, but you will be.

Black Doll (Prita Noire) – Mexico (Director) Sofia Carrillo

The actress, 32, and her husband, producer Jose Castillo, will welcome their first child in September, her rep tells People.

To say that Person of Interest (TV) just keeps getting better each week would most likely be an understatement. The People's Choice Award winner for Best New Drama keeps the twists coming in a formula that is as intricate as it is intriguing, and the characters are fleshing out wonderfully. Where the "number of the week" lacks in oomph, it makes up for in heart. But as always, it's the growing dynamic between our heroes where the meat of the story lies. Carter (Taraji Henson) wants more answers. This time, she's up for a little face time with our hero, Reese (James Caviezel) and lucky for her, he doesn't hold a grudge. Why Reese has deigned to accept her is best summed up by the man himself, "Your moral compass points the right way, and I'm sick of you chasing me." I suppose two assets in NYPD are better than one,...

The fifth season of Showtime's successful serial killer series "Dexter" wasn't exactly a banner year: The show recycled several familiar storylines, featured some bland performances from its guest stars (although Peter Weller was brilliant) and concluded in the most unambitious, frustrating way imaginable. So, hey, who's excited to own it on Blu-ray/DVD?
These sets are scheduled to hit store shelves on August 16th. No special features have been announced as of yet, but expect Paramount to keep in step with previous releases - another way of saying don't expect much.
Synopsis
In Season 5 Dexter has to get in touch with things he never felt before: guilt, sorrow, self-forgiveness. There is blowback from his reckless behavior." Along with the series regulars Peter Weller, Julia Stiles, Maria Doyle Kennedy, April Lee Hernandez, and Shawn Hatosy, and a surprisingly returning Julie Benz are all on tap for more Dark Passenger related mayhem.

Today the nominations for the 17th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards was released. The King’s Speech and The Fighter received the most nominations, with four each. Thankfully the Guild seems to know what they are doing unlike The Golden Globes who pretty much screwed up all the nominations.
The nominees here are usually a very strong indication of how the acting award nominees will play out at the Oscars. King’s Speech has long been an Oscar favourite, but David O. Russell’s The Fighter has gained considerable steam in the past few weeks. Last year, 19 out of 20 SAG nominees went to the Oscars as well so you can be sure that The Fighter and King’s Speech will get a best picture nomination. The 17th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards will be simulcast live on TNT and TBS on January 20th. See the complete list below.

The Screen Acors Guild has released their award nominations for their upcoming 17th annual award ceremony, which will take place on January 30, 2011.
There are some great nominations here. My favorite picks include Christian Bale for his role in The Fighter, Natalie Portman in her role in Black Swan, and Jesse Eisenberg for his role in The Social Network. As much as I love most of these films, I'm surprised that Inception is no where to be seen. That was one of the best films of the year and it seems to be escaping a lot of the nominations in all the award ceremonies this year.
Check out the list of Film and TV nominations below and tell us what your favorite are!

Okay, totally kidding about the Colfer Lifetime Achievement Award thing - that will be going to Ernest Borgnine. But does it seem to you that the kid who plays Kurt Hummel is getting an awful lot of awards season love? (And wouldn't McHale's Navy have been so much better with him in it?)
The latest outpouring of Colfer acclaim comes from the Screen Actors Guild who announced their 17th annual SAG nominees this morning.
The Glee cast is up for a comedy ensemble award, but Colfer was the only cast member other than Jane Lynch to be recognized individually. And given who he's up against he's almost certain to be the frontrunner!
Another bit of good news for a Glbt favorite, The Kids Are All Right, scored individual acting nods for Annete Bening, Mark Rufallo, and also a nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Cast.

The complete list of nominations for the 17th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards follows below. The ceremony will be held on January 30th, 2011.
Nothing really to highlight here, unfortunately. SAG voters apparently didn’t care for Halle Berry’s performance as much as the Golden Globes did, because she’s not on this list. And neither is Idris Elba, who was also nominated for a Golden Globe. The cast of For Colored Girls got no love either.
The significance here is that SAG nominees and winners are voted on by members of the union – essentially, their peers.
But one thing that should be obvious by now is that the Oscar race is going to come down to 4 films and the performances in those films: The Social Network, Black Swan, The King’s Speech, and The Fighter. I still have to see the last 2.

['Dexter' - 'Practically Perfect']
This was one of those game-changing episodes that usually doesn't come along until the second half of a 'Dexter' season.
Not only did some of the less-compelling storylines get a kick in the arse (Angel's barroom brawl lands him an Internal Affairs investigation; Cira's (April Lee Hernandez) rookie cop gets a possible informant killed -- Santa Muerte style.) but Dexter's domestic life stabilized just as his Dark Passenger life hit a hugely unexpected stumbling block.

I'm sad to say that, for the second week in a row, the previews for the next episode looked much more compelling than the episode we just watched. But then, I normally get frustrated with early season "Dexter" episodes, frustration that melts away as the season progresses.
Last night's episode dealt primarily with Dexter's relationship with his step-daughter, Astor, and step-son, Cody, and how his relationship with murder is now entwined with the love of his children. By the end of the episode, Astor -- who has replaced Rita as the show's most annoying character -- and Cody left with their grandparents, moving in with them in Orlando, leaving Dexter lost. Without his children, his desire to kill has been extinguished. "Normally a target would make me feel good. But now it means nothing. And I don't know what will make me feel better."

Do you remember how you felt when you watched the devastating season finale of "Dexter" last year? For me it was the entire 7 stages of grief in those few minutes. Who knew a TV show could make such an impact? It's a testament to the immense talents of the cast and crew of "Dexter". Even after many months since that episode aired, the shock still hasn't subsided completely.
But out with the old and in with the new as "Dexter" is finally returning to our televisions on Sunday, September 26th, on Showtime.
Synopsis:
"In Season Five Dexter has to get in touch with things he never felt before: guilt, sorrow, self-forgiveness. There is blowback from his reckless behavior. He has blood on his hands and an appetite for vengeance that can't be quenched."

So, yes. The good news is that Robert Englund, ever-famous for his portrayal of Freddy Krueger in A Nightmare on Elm Street will appear on Chuck as Dr. Stanley Wheelwright, "an evil scientist who can make your waking life a nightmare." Hardy...har...har.
The bad news is these, among other casting moves, will eventually reach a breaking point that trades honest storytelling among our favorite shows for celebrity appearances. We're all for the Geek Casting of Chuck, or even the DC Adaptations of Smallville, but when seen as a whole, won't the actual episodes get completely overshadowed?
Let's review. Announced thus far:
Chuck: Dolph Lundgren, Linda Hamilton, Olivia Munn, Lou Ferrigno, Karolina Kurkova, Bronson Pinchot, Isaiah Mustafa, Stacy Keibler, Nicole Richie, 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin, Armand Assante, Batista, Eric Roberts, Joel David Moore, Timothy Dalton, and Robert Englund.

Earlier today we got our first look at a funereal image from the upcoming Season Five of Showtime's "Dexter", and what better way to follow it up than by peeking into the mind of Dan Licht, composer for the series, who is busy in his Los Angeles home studio conjuring up chilling sounds for the new season that begins September 26th.
Licht, seen in the photo to your right playing percussion on a human femur, will be adding the sounds of duct tape and surgical tools such as hemostats and scalpels to those of human bones, prehistoric rhythm instruments, and traditional musical instruments that we heard in previous seasons.
Licht realized a dream when he incorporated into the "Dexter" score pre-Columbian instruments such as a sacrificial drum, bone flutes, rasps, pierced phalanges, and bullroarers. “When I lived in New York, I visited the ancient music wing of the Metropolitan Museum...

Time is flying by, and the September 26th (@9:00 Pm Et/Pt) premiere of Showtime's fifth season of Dexter is already among us. Those of you keeping up with the series know that the season finale of the fourth season was a mega-shocker. A major death occurred, blood was shed, and Dexter was left feeling some of his first ever emotions (or did he?) Entertainment Weekly has your first look at season opener that takes Dexter (Michael C. Hall) to a funeral for a loved one. Jonny Lee Miller, Julia Stiles, April Lee Hernandez, Maria Doyle Kennedy, and Shawn Hatosy are the new blood who join Hall, known as a like-able Miami police forensics expert who moonlights as a serial killer of criminals who he believes have escaped justice.
