Former Gersh agent Emma Clarke is joining talent management company Currents Management.
Clarke, who represents talent including Selling Sunset star Chelsea Lazkani, left Gersh last month, after moving over following the agency’s acquisition of A3 Artists Agency.
She is the latest talent agent to move into management.
Clarke spent four years at A3 including nearly three of them as an agent in the alternative division.
In addition to Lazkani, she is also bringing over married YouTubers Joshua and Savannah Alexander, creator of San Francisco-based style blog For the Love and online personality Shannon Willardson and interior stylist, and DIYer and founder of Avante Garde Julia Sousa.
Currents Management was founded five years ago by Nilou and Cameron Ajdari and has centered on digital stars such as Kaylee and Taylor Dudley, Sidney Raz, Reza and Puja Khan, FitDadCEO Dave Ogleton and Clayton Farris.

Filmmaker Joel Jay Blacker who’s become a welcome regular on Dn returns to our pages with his new comedy short Shoes Off, a hilarious and off-kilter portrayal of vulnerable masculinity. The film concerns two drunk best friends who after a rowdy night out return to their abode. There they decide to share their love for one another but when one of them passes out after asking his buddy to remove his footwear should that happen, the other feels the impulse to prove his recently declared affection in as many ways as he can. We’ve become such fans of Blacker’s heightened, colourful style here at Dn and Shoes Off is an excellent continuation of the director’s approach to filmmaking as he further hones his personal style of comedy. Dn is proud to present the online premiere of Shoes Off alongside a discussion with Blacker where he talks...

2023 marks my third year covering the National Film Festival For Talented Youth for Directors Notes and it may just be my favourite edition so far. It’s a festival built on celebrating the best in young filmmaking from around the globe and the work on show has impressed me time and time again. I think the most surprising aspect of the shorts this year is how assured they are, the filmmakers are all under the age of 24 but the work has an air of seasoned confidence to it. This may speak to the confluence of both the growing opportunities afforded to young filmmakers and also how accessible the tools of filmmaking have become. Below you can find our usual bumper list of recommendations of the films to catch at the festival this year which range from deeply personal documentaries through to stoner comedies about a ramen chef facing off against the grim reaper.

A full Free Movie of the Day is posted on the JoBlo Movies YouTube channel every day of the week – but on Fridays things get a little freakier and a little more fun. Get your weekend started the right way by indulging in Friday Fright Nights! Every Friday, we’ll be taking a look at another genre movie you can watch in its entirety, free of charge, either on the YouTube channel linked above or in the video embed here.
This movie we have for you this week is director David Del Rio’s horror comedy Road Head, which is part of my favorite sub-genre of horror: the slasher. While the title does come from a sex act that some of the characters unsuccessfully try at a couple different points in the movie, it’s also a double entendre, because there’s also a sword-wielding fellow called The Executioner who...

Stars: Clayton Farris, Damian Joseph Quinn, Elizabeth Grullon, Adam Nemet, Paul T. Taylor, Misty Bones, Clay Acker | Written by Justin Xavier | Directed by David Del Rio
Director David Del Rio and writer Justin Xavier, the duo who gave us the twisted Christmas story Sick for Toys, are back with Road Head, a bizarre, raunchy, and occasionally bloody, horror comedy with a distinct LGBTQ+ element. Can this tale of a road trip from hell bring you satisfaction? Or is this one time you should actually decline road head?
Bryan (Clayton Farris; Foster Boy) and his boyfriend Alex just wanted to go on a road trip to Isola Lake out in the desert. Unfortunately Bryan’s bestie Stephanie (Elizabeth Grullon; Killing Lazarus) got dumped by her boyfriend and decides to play third wheel despite the fact she and Alex don’t get along.
To make matters worse the lake turns out to be dried out.
