Even amid the concurrent strikes of the past year, there’s been a lot of bonus hand-wringing over the state of the independent producer. Producers, after all, have no SAG or WGA equivalent. Where then does the workaday, blue-collar movie producer find community support? Or work with peers to advance their collective interests?
Well… linking up with a good Artist Development cohort is a great place to star. Which is why we’re thrilled to announce seven new Fellows representing six new projects to kick off the 2023 edition (and 23rd overall!) of the Film Independent Producing Lab.
“We’re delighted to shepherd this group of devoted creative producers through the Lab and give them a dedicated space to further their projects and careers,” says Dea Vazquez, Film Independent’s Associate Director of Fiction Programs.

Bad Bunny leads the 2022 Latin Grammy Award nominations with 10 bids including Album of the Year (“Un Verano Sin Ti“) and Record of the Year (“Ojitos Lindos”), but can he finally win top honors from the academy? Scroll down for the complete list of contenders in all categories.
SEEBillboard charts: Number-one albums of 2022
The Latin Recording Academy has been somewhat ambivalent about Bad Bunny, judging from his track record over the years. He has won four times, but only in urban genre categories. He lost his three previous Album of the Year bids (for “Yhlqmdlg” and “Oasis” in 2020 and “El Ultimo Tour Del Mundo” in 2021) and his previous Record of the Year nom (for “Vete” in 2020). However, Bad Bunny has emerged as the biggest crossover Latin star in the world. “Un Verano Sin Ti” has topped the all-genre, all-language Billboard 200 albums chart for 11 weeks, which is more than any album in six years.

This year the biggest night in television will also have a smell. On the red carpet of the 2022 Emmys, staffers were spotted spritzing the bushes and ambiance with beloved perfume brand Le Labo.
Specifically, they were spotted infusing the air with last year’s very popular scent Cedrat 37. No word if this is the official scent of the award show or just a couple members of the production crew with impeccable taste.
The connection is fitting: Le Labo is a very high-end brand, with enough Hollywood clout that candles from the company were featured in Beyoncé’s video for 2017’s “Sandcastles.”
A relatively new brand first established in 2006, Le Labo started in New York City and was purchased by Estée Launder Cosmetics in 2014. The company has over 35 fragrances available,...

Jay-z and Beyonce are the king and queen of the Grammys. With 22 wins, the "Formation" singer outnumbers her hubby—but only slightly. The "Family Feud" rapper has 21 wins to his name and heads into Sunday night's award show with the most nominations (eight to be exact). Over the years, the couple has recorded songs about love, infidelity and forgiveness. Some of these songs have even been performed on the Grammys stage. Who could forget their 2014 performance of "Drunk in Love," or Beyoncé's 2017 performance of "Love Drought" and "Sandcastles?" In honor of Sunday's award show, here's a...
