By Robert Goldrich, The Road To Emmy Series, Part 14
LOS ANGELES -- Wendy Hallam Martin’s work on The Handmaid’s Tale (Hulu) has yielded marquee industry recognition, including her first American Cinema Editors (ACE) nomination and win earlier this year for the “Offred” episode. And most recently, Martin scored her first career Emmy nom--which came in the Outstanding Single-Camera Picture Editing for a Drama Series category--on the strength of the pivotal “June” episode. For Martin, The Handmaid’s Tale has required a re-think and reorientation relative to her...

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The diversity crisis in Hollywood may rage on, but the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences continues to try to open up access to the entertainment business for people from underrepresented communities and give some a foot in the door at the most critical moment — when college graduation is in sight and the job market is looming. For seven weeks this summer, 107 college students from across the nation convened in Los Angeles for internships at places like HBO, Warner Bros., Dolby...

Read More, Comment NEW YORK -- Bicoastal Station Film has added director Thomas Beug to its roster for commercial representation in the U.S. He is known for work that is naturalistic, grounded in realism and often tinged with humor or mischief. Among the highlights are Domino’s “Paving for Pizza” (CP+B) which documents an initiative with actual road crews to repair pesky pot holes that are bad for Domino’s take-out customers, and Puma’s “Faster Delivery” (digitasLBi) featuring Usain Bolt at his physically comedic best as a...

NEW YORK (AP) -- Who knew connecting the world could get so complicated? Perhaps some of technology's brightest minds should have seen that coming. Social media bans of conspiracy theorist Alex Jones have thrust Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and others into a role they never wanted — as gatekeepers of discourse on their platforms, deciding what should and shouldn't be allowed and often angering almost everyone in the process. Jones, a right-wing provocateur, suddenly found himself banned from most major social...

Read More, Comment NEW YORK -- Integrated production shop The Collective @ LAIR has added comedy director Matty Fisher to its roster.

NEW YORK (AP) -- After long resisting change, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey wants to revamp the "core" of the service to fight rampant abuse and misinformation. But it's not clear if changing that essence — how it rewards interactions and values popularity — would even work. Though Dorsey was scant on details, what is certain is that the move will require huge investments for a company that doesn't have the same resources that Google and Facebook have to throw at the problem. Any change is likely to affect how users...

NEW YORK (AP) -- From the time Ricky Yean first heard about "Crazy Rich Asians," he's been excited to see the movie — and not because he likes romantic comedies (although, for the record, he does.) For the Taiwanese-American who moved to the U.S. when he was 11, here was something he hasn't seen — a movie from a major Hollywood studio, with a cast of Asian-American and Asian actors. So when it comes out Wednesday, "I definitely will go and line up," the San Francisco resident said, and "make sure I go see it...

The award-winning shorts have been featured at top festivals including the Edinburgh International Film Festival, Santa... Read More, Comment By Lindsey Bahr, Film Writer
"Juliet, Naked " is a charming and smart little film about early middle age, second chances, regrets and the intoxicating freedom of written correspondence that's nearly impossible to explain without either spoiling something or being willfully misleading. That's actually one of its attributes: Everything only makes sense in context of everything else. "Juliet, Naked" has a plot that not only builds but that keeps getting more interesting and more rewarding, which is a good thing because to...

NEW YORK (AP) -- There’s nothing like a late charge from Tiger Woods to juice the ratings of a major golf tournament. CBS reached 8.5 million viewers Sunday for final-round competition at the PGA Championship from St. Louis, a whopping 73 percent increase from the 4.9 million people who watched the same tournament’s conclusion in 2017, the Nielsen company said. Woods was the difference. The old hero was playing his best golf in years, leading to a second-place finish against champion Brooks Koepka. Koepka may...

NEW YORK (AP) -- Adding to Hollywood's sizzling summer, the shark thriller "The Meg" opened well above expectations with an estimated $44.5 million in ticket sales, while Spike Lee had his best debut in a decade. "The Meg" had been forecast by some analysts for closer to half that total. An American-Chinese co-production between Warner Bros. and China's Gravity Pictures, it also debuted well overseas, taking in $50.3 million in China and totaling $96.8 million internationally, according to studio estimates...
Read More, Comment NFL’s Thursday Night Football is a great excuse to get together with friends and start the weekend of football early. Unless, of course, you’re Elliott, a conservationist incurably devoted to preserving the lineage of the rare and majestic cockeyed waladoo. While Elliott watches the waladoo from a perch above a frozen forest, his colleagues are cozied up at the local pub watching all the Thursday Night Football action. This spot titled “Waladoo” and the fictitious bird named waladoo were made... Read More, Comment Chris Wright, an accomplished TV visual effects supervisor, makes his directorial debut with the romantic musical dance film The Way It Begins , which screens this week at the 2018 HollyShorts Film Festival in Hollywood.

Read More, Comment Sling TV’s first “We Are Slingers” campaign, which launched in March 2018, brought awareness to the term “Slinger” and the joy of cutting the cord on traditional cable, while still enjoying the live TV you love. Now with a focus on the revolutionary “Slinger” lifestyle, Sling is bringing in Dr. Ruth Westheimer, aka Dr. Ruth, as a highly-experienced relationship expert to show couples to how to get the most out of “Slinging” and remind them that “couples who Sling together, stay together.” In... Read More, Comment In this video promoting Delta Air Lines service in Seattle, a real-life mom living in Detroit prods her daughter, a Seattle resident, to come visit her. The means toward that end was devised by Wieden+Kennedy New York--a group of mom look-alikes who pop in as customers of the coffee shop where the daughter works as a barista. One of the mom look-alikes comes up to the counter--with a line of other look-alikes behind her--and hands the daughter Delta tickets to Detroit along with a phone on...
