Daniel Dae Kim is probably best known for his role in the iconic sci-fi series Lost as well as his role in Hawaii Five-0. He has since become a gamechanger and disrupter when it comes to advocacy for Asians, Asian Americans and other underrepresented voices in Hollywood.
In 2017, he and Grace Park, who is also Asian, exited the CBS reboot of the classic ahead of the eighth season due to contractual agreements surrounding salary. This shined a light on salary parity in film and TV and how it impacts people of color and other marginalized voices — something that the industry has been grappling with for decades.
He forged his own path with his production banner 3Ad, which produced The Good Doctor and has many irons in the fire via his first-look deal with Amazon. He is producing a comedy with deaf actor and model Nyle Dimarco as well as the...

Exclusive: Universal is developing the Adib Khorram 2018 Penguin Books Ya novel Darius the Great is Not Okay.
Kevin Hamedani and Travis Betz will adapt for Todd Lieberman and David Hoberman’s Mandeville Films which is producing.
The novel follows half-Persian Darius Kellner, a fanboy who knows how to speak Klingon better than Farsi, and is more versed in Hobbit social cues than Persian ones. However, his first-ever trip to Iran is about to change his life. He’s never really fit in at home, and he’s sure things are going to be the same in Iran. His clinical depression doesn’t exactly help. Then Darius meets Sohrab, the boy next door, and everything changes. Soon, they’re spending their days together, playing soccer, eating faludeh, and talking for hours on a secret rooftop overlooking the city’s skyline. Sohrab calls him Darioush—the original Persian version of his name...

The transformation scene in John Landis' classic An American Werewolf in London is to this day one of the horror genre's finest moments and a true benchmark in practical effects work. Time to take a truly loving look at it!
Director Travis Betz (Joshua) got together with John's son, Max Landis (who stars in the short below), and Cinefex to do a homemade reenactment of the iconic and infamous transformation. The results are pretty friggin' hilarious. Check it out!
In case you've been living under a rock or are too young to know any better, the iconic film follows two American college students, Jack and David, as they backpack across the moors of England. On a misty, full-moon night, the men are attacked by a supernatural creature that kills Jack and taints David with its horrific curse.

Earlier, we posted a review of the action comedy Dust Up, a neo-western with shades of Quentin Tarantino, Sergio Leone, and Grindhouse films. The film was written and directed by Ward Roberts (Little Big Top), and can be found on VOD and PPV, and has been out since October and November. What follows is FM’s interview with Ward: our discussion about his influences, his hilarious cast, the case of the missing miniature pony, and the tenacity it takes to be an independent filmmaker.
Read our rave review here and be sure to check it out on VOD.
FM: I always ask this because I’m always curious. What kinds of films, or TV, or books did you grow up on? What inspired you to become a filmmaker?
Ward Roberts: You know, I would say, watching Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Superman, those are my very earliest cinematic influences.

No budget, no problem. The seams show often in “Dust Up,” an unapologetically silly action comedy that feels as if it was produced entirely from the loose change found on all of Brooklyn’s collective bar tops. Complimenting the jaunty original score and songs from Spindrift and Gram Rabbit are stock soundtrack cues like a soaring eagle, crashing glass, and what sounds like the loudest punches ever recorded for a film, even when delivered by hundred-pound weaklings. Eternally lost in the desert is ex-vet Jack (Aaron Gaffey), who survived war trauma to become a “high desert handyman” with a granite pokerface and an eyepatch that others can’t help but acknowledge is “badass.” A phone call takes him to the doorstep of Ellen (a frankly adorable Amber Benson), who he hopes to assist with her plumbing issues, but also maybe a bit more? The point is moot as Jack soon encounters her husband,...

As a dumb kid, I spent considerable time camped out in front of cable TV. The programming I begrudgingly missed for school or basic hygiene, I captured with my Vcr set to record the maximum hours allotted on a standard VHS tape.
Poorer quality, sure, but it was suitable for the six hours worth of garbage movies and random junk I recorded on a daily basis. I was, however, able to discover some pretty nifty shit during that wondrous time; films like The Zero Boys, Hunter's Blood, Neon Maniacs, Alligator, Quiet Cool, Waxwork, and Dudes remain staples of my diet to this day.

*full disclosure: a DVD screener of this film was provided by Monarch Home Entertainment. Director/writer: Travis Betz. Cast: Sarah Lassez and Dustin Fasching. This reviewer knows Indiana born Travis Betz from his earlier production Lo. This title featured a demon and a circle of protection. This title was a small film. Betz's latest, The Dead Inside, is also a small film. There are only two characters and all of the action takes place in one setting, much like Betz's earlier film. Thus, there are only a few places this film can go. The Dead Inside is a little too mundane in this tight space to be enjoyable and it is a little too long to be recommended for most film fans. The story seems simple enough. Fi (Sarah Lassez) and West (Dustin Fasching) are a couple living together in a smallish apartment. West is a photographer by day, while...

This week, filmmaker Travis Betz posted the "Prometheus" trailer he animated using only construction paper and his girlfriend's camera skills. By Thursday night, it had more than 200,000 views -- and at least one imitator. Adult Swim, the Atlanta-based late night television network, aired a shorter, less elaborate version of its own. "There was no reference to me anywhere, I don't know if it was a crazy old coincidence," Betz told TheWrap. "But imitation is always the mark of flattery." Adult Swim did not return an email from TheWrap requesting comment. Betz, 35, said he...

The Hollywood Reporter states that this trailer for Prometheus (which opens Friday, June 8th), "posted on YouTube on Monday, replicates one of Fox's promos for the film entirely with paper and was the brainchild of Los Angeles filmmaker Travis Betz." "'This is further proof that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and that talent is everywhere,' Fox executive vice president of corporate communications Chris Petrikin said.

A trailer for 20th Century Fox's Prometheus is making waves on the Internet -- and it wasn't even created by the studio. The trailer, posted on YouTube on Monday, replicates one of Fox's promos for the film entirely with paper and was the brainchild of Los Angeles filmmaker Travis Betz. "This is further proof that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and that talent is everywhere," Fox executive vice president of corporate communications Chris Petrikin said.

I figured that someone would post this already, but again I am here to the rescue. Since we are all about all things Prometheus this week, I find it appropriate to post this trailer made entirely of paper. Fans can truly create some amazing things dedicated to their favorite film. This is a good example. It's also a little creepy in paper form. Travis Betz posted this only as a fan of the Alien series and Ridley Scott. Next thing he knows, he's getting love from Damon Lindelof and 20th Century Fox. Check this wonderful thing out below.

Because you haven't seen enough teasers, clips and viral videos for "Prometheus," here comes a new trailer for the film -- done entirely in paper.
Keeping with a recent trend of recasting blockbuster trailers in odd forms -- LEGOs, sausages -- the "Prometheus" paper clip is exactly what you'd expect: the Ridley Scott film's most teaser-y moments redone with paper. (The design work was done by The Receptionist, a.k.a Travis Betz, who has a series of short films done in paper online.)
Watch paper "Prometheus" in the slideshow below, and stick around for clips of "The Dark Knight," "Battleship," "Lord of the Rings" and more.

We bring a long running series of heavy videos from Spindrift's "Classic Soundtracks Vol. 1" to a close with a light hearted "Round Up." It's the directorial debut of the band's own Sasha Vallely who had such a riot working with the wild roster of directors on previous videos for the album that she decided to shoot one of her own. Vallely, who was also an extra in Ward Robert's "Dust Up," chose him to be the main character in this slapstick bar fight filmed at Pappy & Harriet's in Pioneertown, originally created in the 40's as a living movie set.
"Ward was perfect for the role, he made everyone laugh so much it was a really fun shoot," Vallely beamed. "Using some of the cast and crew from 'Dust Up,' Shannon Hourigan as cinematographer, stuntman Al Burke and director Travis Betz made everything run really smoothly and I am very happy with the results.

Founder of Shriekfest Denise Gossett was voted one of the top women in Horror for a reason. She puts together one of the biggest and longest running genre festivals out there. She's such a sweet and down to earth lady that it's hard to believe that she's responsible for bringing so much horror into the world. This year was no different.
2011's line-up of films was stellar. Some were more well received than others, but overall it was a pretty impressive batch of feature and short films alike as well as fascinating and enlightening Q&A's after some of the better films. Feature films like The Dead Inside, Absentia, Pig and short films like Certified and Negative Image simply wowed the audience and left people talking long after the screenings were over.

Wes and Fi are empty. While their love for each other burns strong, artistically their hearts have been locked in a box for years. Wes is a burned out photographer paying the bills by shooting weddings. Fi is the writer’s-blocked author of a series of zombie novellas called, The Dead Survive. At one time they were at the top of their creative game, but recently their muse has packed its’ bags and vanished without leaving a note.
When Fi begins to show signs of schizophrenia, Wes does everything in his power to help her get better. Strange behaviors and breathing patterns escalate, and It is soon discovered that darker forces lurk inside her. The doctors prove useless and even the church can offer no comfort. The true horror of the situation steals Fi’s voice and reveals itself to Wes. Afraid and completely lost, Wes has no choice to...

A discussion about the current state of YouTube view counts being ‘stuck’ started up amongst some online video professionals and it prompted me to rattle off some personal experience and knowledge on things that can help place your YouTube videos ahead of other. These tips are meant to help boost views on YouTube but ultimately ‘great content’ is the major thing that will help most. Joe Wilson who created the web series Vampire Mob brought up the discussion on the forum – so I used his latest video as an example of some things to do to help increase his chances of moving up on the viewership ladder—here’s how my forum post went down with direct suggestions to him but also can be applied to everyone out there creating content and syndicating it on YouTube. Naming Is Huge Abbreviate when you can and make sure to lead off with something catchy.

For all the awfulness that movies like Valentine’S Day or Leap Year or Going The Distance brought into the lives of women who wrongly assumed this was about as good as it’s going to get for them, a paid admission to this film will send a message that there needs to be more movies like this and they all need Kristen Wiig to oversee them.

For a second year in a row, YouTube is teaming up with NBC’s ode to vaudeville America’s Got Talent. The world’s largest video sharing site has been charged with finding that special someone who can do something special and show it to the world on YouTube-centric installments of the television series. Interested individuals have from today until June 9 to submit their audition videos to America’s Got Talent’s YouTube channel. YouTube will gather all the submissions, a “panel of NBC representatives” will review those submissions and select their 20 favorites to display, YouTubers will vote on their favorites of the 20 between June 28 and July 9, and the winner will be crowned America’s Got Talent’s YouTube Poeple’s Choice Winner.

YouTube announced the winners of its first ever NextUp Creators contest to identify 25 video creators to make up the network’s inaugural NextUp class. Each of the winning creators will receive $35,000 to help fund future video production as well as attend a 4-day YouTube Creator Camp (also a first) in New York City for “personalized training and mentoring to build their brands and improve their content.” This is the first major initiative out of the team that came over from the company’s acquisition of NY-based Next New Networks in March. Next New Networks was known to have a 70-page handbook on mastering YouTube that it shared with its creators, though its likely to have some updates now that they have some hands on time with the inner workings of the platform. Amongst the winning creators are some names Tubefilter readers will recognize like Peter Bragiel (aka pdrop) who created...
