CONTROVERSY -- Come see Bait and Switch TV: Investigative Satire ; Sat 2PM at the Renberg!!
We're all Nipple-Pinching, Effing Doomed - NOT!
Unlike other comedy news shows, each Bait and Switch TV episode examines one controversial topic in tremendous detail. Then, this new INTERNET TV CHANNEL encourages the audience on BOTH sides of an episode's controversy to get involved and act on the issues via LIVE ONLINE DEBATES and various pro and con ACTIVISM efforts organized, tracked, and implemented from this baitandswitchtv.com website. We also provide COMICAL ONLINE GAMES tied to each TV episode/controversy, some of them multiplayer games, that allow you to interact with other viewers.
What this TV channel does is continually put a controversy in focus while asking the audience to consider:
HOW DO ANY OF US KNOW WHAT'S TRUE ANYMORE?
We collect and organize deep-dive evidence and positions on both sides of an issue for your review, never dumbing it down, and deliberately punching it up with levity , animation, and music to help make some dire or dreary news and views easier to consume. Then we schedule LIVE DEBATES with experts on both sides of the issues we examined in the TV shows to INCLUDE you in the conversation. This allows YOU to interview the experts and policy makers directly.
Unlike mainstream news gatherers, we trust you the audience to stick with the investigation of a complex, longterm argument with the option of learning more and getting personally involved. Then we invite you to actually get involved with these issues and controversies, which affect us all, when the outcome or direction of the controversy matters to you.
For example, in the first episode on the US meat, poultry, and dairy food supply, Bait and Switch TV does not suggest you stop eating meat, or that you buy only organic meats (we dont even mention organic meats or dairy foods). Truly, we want you to think and decide for yourselves. However, we do tell you in some detail what is IN this food supply and how some of it is manufactured (this episode is about ingredients, not about animal treatment). A lot of the ingredients in meat production ARE being tested on you. These compounds, drugs, GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISMS, and technologies may or may not be safe, but the FDA recently passed a law, the NO LABELING LAW, that states that you have NO RIGHT TO KNOW if you're eating cloned meat or dairy, for example. Whether you think cloned or genetically-engineered food experiments are a good or bad thing, this is still America and you DO have a right to know. So one of the Activism efforts is geared toward overturning the NO LABELING LAW. Another is directed at supporting the current Antibiotics Misuse bill Preservation of Antibiotics for Medical Treatment Act, and put an end to the dangerous overuse of important human antibiotics in the feed and water of animals that are not sick which is an indisputable contributor to the emergence of antibiotic resistance and antibiotics that no longer work in sick humans.
But to be clear, we are a PRO science, technology, and innovation investigative group. In our epigenetics episode, we firmly support and herald new, emerging epigenetic therapies for cancer treatment--this new science may well be the cure to cancer in our lifetime! And our nanotechnology episode is again a very positive examination of technologies and advancements that will make an important and essential difference in the lives of countless people around the world. Should these technologies be tested on you? YOU decide!
On the political spectrum, there are countless controversies to bone up on, most of them anything but black and white. And there is so much divisiveness over many of these issues that Bait and Switch TV strives to find the path on which opposing positions can meet and together find inroads to the power structure and decision-making circles that, these days, seem only to serve lobbyists and power brokers. We do need to start standing together. There is so much at stake now, and the time has come to take a firm hold on our democracy, or lose it.
Our US constitution and free market system have led to the greatest individual liberty, prosperity, freedom, power, honor, and security ever known to mankind. But the people in this country are considered too stupid to understand "the issues" and details, and too many mainstream depictions of the controversies and important issues in our cultural landscape are either polarized to the point of absurdity or dumbed down to the point of irrelevance--allowing only those in power to have access to the facts to use and repurpose as they wish.
Let's join together to become more informed, to laugh and learn together, and to be more directly engaged in our representational democracy. This is how TV can become truly interactive! Let's stand behind the American belief in a free-market supply and demand system, but one that also advocates, and demands, an informed populace and a capitalism enacted with conscience and integrity.

La Clave this saturday (oct 17
- From: La_Clave_Documentary
-
Description:
“La Clave,” a documentary by Mariella Sosa, is about the similarities between two types of music genres known today as Salsa and Reggaeton.
Sosa, a Venezuelan born photographer/director, traveled to Puerto Rico and New York to interview some of the biggest musical geniuses in the Latin music industry including Gilberto Santa Rosa, Willie Colon, Cheo Feliciano, Tego Calderon, Julio Voltio, Hector “El Father”, and more.
“La Clave” is being shown for the first time in Los Angeles. The documentary won the award for Best Documentary at the El Rincon Film Festival in Puerto Rico this year, and was also shown at the Rhode Island Film Festival in 2008 and at the New York Latino Film Festival in 2009.
The name for the documentary comes from La Clave, which is the five-note two bar rhythm pattern that generates rhythmic measurement. It’s the foundation and backbone of Salsa and all Afro-Cuban based music.
Based in South Beach, Sosa has been one of the city’s artistic forerunners as its renaissance took place. She has not only made a name for herself by shooting album covers, but also directing music videos for Sony Music, Universal Music, EMI, BMG, Fonovisa, live concerts and an Urban Latino Entertainment show, “Da Click.”
For the last 15 years, Sosa has been compiling a respected portfolio within the industry.
She had photographed personalities such as singer Gloria Estefan and her husband and music producer Emilio Estefan, actor/musician Andy Garcia, Selena, and Juan Gabriel, the master of the romantic song in Spanish.
Sosa’s background is in photography – she’s been called a miracle worker of the lens – but the transition into film work was easy, especially for this documentary because of the subject.
“I've always felt that nature and music were my early inspirations, and I still feel that today,” says Sosa.

Saturday morning show
- From: SallyHelppie
-
Description:
Hi, fellow female producers (and directors and actors and writers).
My feature film, THE BEACON, is screening at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 17th, at the Renberg Theatre. It stars Teri Polo (who is amazing in her lead role) and has gotten some good buzz in the horror press. But I think it's more of a psychological thriller with a lot of suspense and mystery. I firmly believe it's a movie that women will enjoy even if they don't like scary movies. I'd appreciate seeing you all there. And as I begin deciding on domestic distribution (we've made a foreign deal), I'd really like insights from others.
See you at the Festival!

The Emotional Toll of "Woman's
- From: katiemadonna
-
Description:
Before I set off to make "Woman's Prison" I was completely ready, there was no doubt in my mind that making this film, in the summer of 2008, was exactly what I had to do. And even during production, I attacked each day with a bolt of electricity surging through me. However, that all took a turn once I finished the film.
Now, I do not know why I made the film. After a visit to the heart specialist ordered by my doctor, I question if it was worth it. As I laid there, listening my heart beat back and forth, it was true, my heart was broken. My emotional symptoms were now physical.
And the reason for this heart break was that I faced my mortality making this film. I felt everyone place their burdens on me for 11 months. It was constant taking. As the demons that created the content slowly made their way out, my physical defenses were dissolving as well as any rationality. The dark energy of the film entered me and would not leave.
It was not as if we just made a film about women in poverty, I was filming the movie in the city that had been responsible for much of my emotional turmoil and negative energy. Seeing youthful girls without emotional baggage from from New York enjoying Indiana and not immediately seeing my past experiences, made me feel more alienated and isolated. I sought to rid myself of the violence of my adolescence , yet that violence resonates within your being forever. And seeing a person living out the life that I escaped, triggered on going panic attacks for the next 11 months.
The panic attacks had much to do with the fact that content of the film was not self contained to set. So many women we worked with lived Julie Ann's life. In one case, an actress's boyfriend would not let her come to set to shoot her scenes. How could she argue with him, she did not work, she did not pay rent, she cooked and cleaned and lived in his house. We lost a day of shooting due to her troubled relationship.
I carried the burden weight of those possible fates back to New York City, believing that the hardest part was over. I had no idea was going to be exchanged in order to finish the film.
My life was on hold for 11 months. There were moments so tense that I do not even remember them. Sleep was interrupted with nightmares reliving production traumas. My face was covered with red patches of dry skin. Purple bags outlined my eyes. My two pairs of jeans spouted dozens of holes. The only human contact that I had was with the post production staff, making me emotionally needy and cynical. I passed out on the subways trains. Images of Holocaust victims and Detroit poverty ran uncontrolled in my mind. I knew how bad life could get. I did not need any well off white person who grew up in the suburbans to tell me about who was being cheated. Their ramblings triggered my anxieties and worsened my condition. As they extended their hearts to residents of Bed-Stuy, they seem to lack the immediate compassion to notice that the person in front of them was experiencing this first hand. However much guilt motivated them to preach, they were certainly was not being cheated, just lazy.
And these encounters contributed to my isolation. While I was able to see how others were feeling, most people I ran into on a daily basis were only out for you to be an audience for their hangups. Now when you are in a normal, healthy state of mind, this is fine to deal with. Yet, when you are having images of slain populations flashing in your mind, you do not need to hear self absorbed left wing rants masked as compassion. You need to watch soap operas or Disney movies.
As post-production dragged on, anger and resentments at how things occurred on set bubbled to the surface. I felt neglected by my crew in the face of a particular problem person on set. I realized that while I envisioned having a whole female crew as honest way to make the film, I had not foreseen the fact that people in general fear and respect father figures and do not respect a woman without some intimidating male presence protecting her. I would pay for this during production.
The main lesson learned, sexism is not carried out by men alone, but by women--by women who have never been able to take out their anger on men. Rather then take out their rage on men, they will target each other because they are allowed to and by assaulting other women they will not harm their chances to gain approval from men.
And since most girls do seek approval from men, the boys put girls in check. Had I had a male assistant director, there would have been less gossiping, needless flirting and rantings. My male AD would have put a certain actor in his place when he sat in car for a half hour and yelled profanities at me. The fear of another male would have kept his behavior respectable.
All of these realizations took a toll on my body. Late in post-production, I went to see a doctor for a physical and she asked "Why is your blood pressure so high?" and I said, "it is?" and I paused. "My left side of my face is numb and tingling." I was having a mini stroke.
When you are under the creative demands of directing, you must be completely surrounded by protective people. There must be buffers away from excited crew or emotionally burdened actors. And this lack of protection took its toll on my health, both physical and emotional. Worse, was that my even though my ailing health was visible, the reaction from my superiors and peers ignored those signs. No one was taking into account my sickeningly body, therefore I continued working until I became sick with pneumonia and took four days to sleep. When my sickness was seen, I was ordered to "take care" of myself, which is more of burden then something that I could actually do. There was no time for my body to exist, or there to be any delays. Money was extremely tight. I subleted my room for 11 months and slept on my couch. I ate the frozen vegetables and noodles three times a day.
I turned in the film on April 17. New York City's noise and busyness felt as if it was attacking me. I started screaming and jumped in my car and left. I cried the whole 11 hour drive to Indiana. Not because, I was emotionally hurt but because I felt nothing. These were new tears, tears that I cried because I wanted to be a human again and I had no idea where to start. I wanted to experience romantic love without thinking about domestic violence. I wanted to find people that were not so selfish and obsessed with celebrities, that could appreciate things for just existing. I wanted a genuine friend who did not want anything from me. And as music played on the radio, songs that used to inspire, amounted to nothing that I could believe in anymore. My heart was broken, and it happened to break because I followed it. - Blog post

Victoria Nestorowicz discusses
- From: daphne23
-
Description:
Victoria Nestorowicz was one of the ensemble actors that I met at the Banff Creative Workshop's Women in the Director's Chair workshop. I just fell in love with her courage as an actress and told her that I was going to write something for her. REPLAY is that film.
A little while ago, I asked Victoria about taking on the role of Kate and this is what she shared.
Playing Kate in REPLAY was a challenge. I think I will always have the initial question before I get onset, "am I a good enough actress to make this believable?" Michaelin was a wonderful director; she spent a lot of time with me working on Kate's mentality and personality and that inspired great confidence.
While shooting some of the scenes in the car, I would actually get so involved that it was difficult not to actually break down and cry, again Michaelin played Kate's sub conscious and instilled a tremendous amount of strength in me. I believe that in most cases by not 'playing the victim', someone who is captured will eventually be granted freedom.
It's an interesting border that women (especially western) dance round today. A lot of media and fashion experts tell us how liberating it is to act a certain way and wear certain clothes. We think it is "woman's liberation' but is this actually the truth? In an indirect sort-of-way palying this role helped me realize the rights and honor of being a woman.
The way that Michaelin expressed this film is very impressive and courageous; both onset and off, she is a role model for Kate and mentor to me.

What on Earth? -- "Inside the crop circle mystery," which won the 2009 EBE Award for Best Feature Documentary from the UFO Congress Film Festival, will be screened as part of the LA FEMME FILM FESTIVAL on Thursday, October 15, at 10 am at the Davidson/Valentini Theatre, 1125 N. McCadden Place, Los Angeles, CA 90038.
What on Earth? tracks Producer/Director Suzanne Taylor’s interactions, in England, as part of an international community of visionary artists, scientists, philosophers, mathematicians, educators, writers, and farmers who marvel at crop circles, the unexplained global phenomenon that has puzzled humanity for centuries.
Circle enthusiasts, who converge in England every summer to go circle-chasing and indulge in circle analysis, talk about they have become so fascinated by this phenomenon. Evidence is presented that challenges the idea that all the glyphs are made by people, and the motives of the hoaxers, who make some of them, is a subject for speculation. So is the question about what is delivering the circles and why they are being created.
“The most startling revelations we get from crop circles come from their shapes,” says Taylor. “We are being given a virtual curriculum in number and geometry.” The film also looks at the circles as art and as instigations to reexamine ancient knowledge lost to a culture separated from nature.
In the film, interviewees speculate about what the effect would be if it were ascertained that the circles aren't being made by us. “If we knew we were not the only advanced intelligence in the cosmos,” says Taylor, “we would be one humanity in relation to ‘the other,’ and, as someone in the film says, ‘That could be what saves this civilization.’” - Blog post

La Clave Documentary to be scr
- From: La_Clave_Documentary
-
Description:
"La Clave" is a fascinating musical documentary film about the similarities between two types of music genres known today as Salsa and Reggaeton. In this film, we were fortunate enough to have gathered the hottest stars of reggaeton as well as the old school greats of salsa. We have interviewed salsa icons such as Wilie Colon, Ruben Blades, Ismael Miranda, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Oscar D’Leon and on the reggaeton; and on the reggaeton side we interviewed billboard chart topping artists: Julio Voltio, Tego Calderon, Vico C and Hector "El Father" just to name a few.
These artist all came together with the same purpose to discuss how two different styles of music can have so much in common and how their music is all composed under "La Clave".
La Clave is the five-note two bar rhythm pattern which generates rhythmic measurement and is the foundation and backbone of Salsa(and all Afro-Cuban based music).
They also take you on an extraordinary journey back in time to the roots that influence all of these different types of music, which is Africa and its rhythm of "drums and percussion".
You can watch the teaser at www.laclavedocumentary.com or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RXMZAGF6YA
La Clave Will be screening October 17 8:00pm at the Davidson/Valentini Theatre
