A bit about LUPO, the character I play in “Operation Raccoon City”, a Resident Evil inspired short film by Blue Goggles Films on their show De-Pixelated in association with GameTrailers.com.
Once an experienced French Special Forces op, Karena LesProux left soldering to live a normal family life. But this, as it seems, was not meant to be as family problems arose and she was forced to kill her husband after he tried hurting their children, she got off without charges tough and after she failed to live as single mother as well she returned to working as a private contractor, protecting, controlling and killing for the highest bidder, that is until Umbrella noticed her and secured her services.
Currently Karena LesProux leads Umbrella Security Service Delta Team demanding the same discipline and obedience that she expects from her own children, this is why she is called the “Wolf Mother”.
Apocalypse. Lupo and Shona (US Military) are in a private battle inside an abandoned schoolhouse. They are not the only ones after each other’s throats; zombies, hunters and tyrants want in on the game. With just a few bullets left and one grenade, Lupo and Shona must join forces in order for either of them to escape these predators alive. Though what happens in the aftermath.. stays in the aftermath.

“Please Hang Up and Try Again” is a romantic drama based on the perspective of phone conversations, we follow three lovelorn individuals: one who ends a tattered relationship, one who longs for a past love and one who seductively initiates a new tryst. I play Rachel, the seductive initiator.
This film, Directed by Eduardo A. Garcia and Produced by Kalyn Blacklock at kE Films is scheduled to be released Fall 2011.
Dean Fredrick, bad ass custom jewelry designer based in Austin, TX presents a film trailer that featured at his annual Austin Fashion Week party. The film is Directed by Phillip Guzman and the decadent Costumes are by Gypsy Sun Vintage.
The trailer is really fun. I think rather than a description, you should watch it to see what happens!

I just finished principle shooting of a short film called “American Dreams”. The film, inspired by true events of Italian writer/director Gaia Bonsignore, is a story about two girls, Lisa and Diana, and their search for the “American Dream”, both having quite opposing ideas of what that is and how to achieve it. Diana, played by Jacqueline Leal, seeks freedom in support and stability of a marriage that has inevitably lost its love. Lisa, my character, is an anarchist protester who finds freedom in running and retaining an uprooted status, constantly fighting for the cause of the moment.
It was an amazingly ambitious shoot (a super low budget that opens with a street riot scene, which achieved superb footage from what Ive seen). It also provided an opportunity for me to work on a more gritty/ street kid character, as ive been seeking.
“Vicky & Sam” receives fantastic accolades from Steve Weiss and Philip Bloom on their show “Critics”. That is, after Phil slams it in all aspects then reveals that he loves it so much it sets a new bar for standards. The blog and gear resource, Zacuto.com, has hundreds of thousands of filmmaker followers around the world. Nuno Rocha, the Director for Vicky & Sam, also received the “Z-KUDOS” award, which is not a commonly passed out acknowledgement for Steve Weiss. Praising films in their entirety is also not common, as Steve and Philip are honest and genuine in their critiques. They dont take filmmaking lightly.
The full film is unavailable on the web while it makes it’s festival rounds. Currently, it has been accepted to 44 film festivals internationally.
Here is a short clip of the “Critics” episode with just Steve & Philip’s critique of “Vicky & Sam”:

From the short film, Vicky & Sam. My, I look interested.
Vicky & Sam is a story about three writers who discover that their stories are being played out in real time. The lead characters, Vicky and Sam, enter the diner, exactly as described in the writer’s brainstorm session. As the three writers toy with the concept of two real people doing whatever they declare, of course they get out of hand and danger ensues. I play a writer. The two other writers, my co-stars, are played by Daniel Moore and Luke Francis. Definitely check them out!
The film is directed by Nuno Rocha, a director from Portugal (and, as I find out on set, a magician as well! :) I recommend checking out his work – he’s doing great stuff!
