In a follow-up to our August 31st exclusive chat with Jake Kennedy, the filmmaker passed us word last night that his short film Backtrack 2.0 has now made its online debut, and you can see it right here!

Despite having a résumé of starring roles in both films and television, Tamala Jones (Daddy Day Camp, The Tracey Morgan Show) still went into her audition for a new ABC pilot.
That audition called for her to say one line (one line!) in a show called, Castle.
She took that one line, booked the show, quickly became a series regular and is now an integral part of the show as Dr. Lanie Parish. How cool is that?
I talked to Tamala about how she got her start, that one line audition and how she gets that medical dialog memorized.

Castle airs Mondays at 10/9c on ABC
You started out as a model. How did you transition into acting? Did you always wanna pursue it?
Tamala Jones: I always wanted to act so while I was doing the modeling stuff,...

Animus Cross is most definitely delving into unchartered territory. You won't find any traditional web fare here—no scantily clad teens, silly jokes, or other web one-offs. Instead, in its first episode, Animus Cross begins to unfold the trappings of a much deeper story. Set in the post-Antebellum Northwest, and starring Jerry L. Buxbaum, Harold Phillips, Jeff Hime, Trish Egan, and Kathryne Bukowski, Animus Cross promises to be the web series worlds' first historical thriller. Creator A.L. Steen is fully aware of the unique landscape she's chosen for the series. "I wanted to make my life as difficult as possible, obviously," says Steen. "A creature feature set just after the Civil War is not exactly the subject matter most people doing a web series would choose."...
