The Hillywood Show Going to Forks

Share Post

Below is the Press Release.

Cullen Sighting in Forks?!
Twilight Fandom Entertainers The Hillywood Show Make Special Appearance in Twilight’s hometown of Forks, WA
Who , What, When, Where
In Forks, the setting for Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight saga, fans will soon see Edward and Bella strolling down Forks Avenue hand in hand. The Hillywood Show, the production company that brought fans the Twilight and New Moon parodies with several million views on YouTube, will be making a very special personal appearance on August 6th and 7th in Forks. Their appearance is sponsored by Dazzled by Twilight, the company that provides the ultimate Twilight experience in Forks.

The Hillywood Show began as a fun hobby for two sisters, Hannah and Hilly Hindi, putting together parodies and spoofs in their living room with little more than a handheld camera and some convincing wigs. Their 5 to 8 minute videos involve character impersonations from films such as Pirates of the Caribbean, The Dark Knight, The Runaways and more, with their own spin on incorporating multiple references into one hilarious vignette. As their fan base grew, so did their talent, diversity and ability to connect with a loyal audience. Their recent parodies of Twilight and New Moon are now played on web sites all over the world and have created a fan base numbering in the millions. What is perhaps the most surprising fact is that all directing, editing, acting and design is done completely by Hannah and Hilly. They are also the hosts and emcees of Creation Entertainment’s Official Twilight Tour (Summit Entertainment’s licensed and endorsed convention company) and currently tour all over the country year-round with their cast of Edward, Bella, Jacob, Alice and Jasper. Their upcoming parody of Eclipse, releasing in the fall, has media in a frenzy to get a look at the girls’ next genius production. Learn more at www.TheHillywoodShow.com.

Twilight' star Ashley Greene presents at the ESPY Awards

Last night, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse star Ashley Greene appeared on the red carpet of and presented at the ESPY Awards (Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly Awards, put on by ESPN) in Los Angeles, California.
On the red carpet for the event, Greene wore an asymmetrical orange-red dress.
On-stage, Greene presented with Tracy Morgan the award for "Best Upset."
Tracy Morgan, however, thought that the "Best Upset" was the fact that he didn't receive the part of Nelson Mandela (portrayed by Morgan Freeman) in 2009's Invictus.
He presented a skit of his audition tape for the picture, and Greene played along with his wacky antics.
Greene had reminded her fans on Twitter that she'd be a presenter at the show, and it's a good thing she did because the ESPY Awards are not usually where Twilight fans would expect to see the cast on-stage.
Here's a video of Greene's presentation with Morgan:

Twilight' stars Kellan Lutz and Gil Birmingham stepping out for good causes

Both Kellan Lutz and Gil Birmingham ("Emmett Cullen" and "Billy Black" in the Twilight series respectively) are heading out for good causes over the next few days.
Kellan Lutz will be appearing at Monday's 2010 Do Something Awards, a VH1 awards show which showcases the good deeds of celebrities.
Surprisingly, none of the Twilight cast is on the list of nominees for their charitable work (despite the tireless efforts of those like Peter Facinelli), but you can find out more about that event here.
It'll air on VH1 at 9 p.m. EST on Monday, July 19th.
Gil Birmingham will be appearing on Saturday at this weekend's Quileute Days festival in La Push, Washington.
According to PDN, "Birmingham will participate in the Saturday parade and meet with council and fans, but his schedule is not yet finalized" and "Quileute Days will run Friday through Sunday and will include traditional tribal games, softball games, a parade, vendors and more. The annual event is free, and the public is invited to attend."

How Breaking Dawn Could Effect the Louisiana Economy

As previously posted, we told you about the fourth installment of  The Twilight Saga:Breaking Dawn being filmed in Vancouver and in Louisiana. The lucky location will be Baton Rouge, Louisiana and this sparks questions about boosting the town’s economy.

“Breaking Dawn,” the fourth chapter in the “Twilight” story, will be released as two separate films in the franchise, which has grossed more than $1.4 billion worldwide to date, according to a news release from Summit Entertainment.
Getting the vampire film juggernaut to the Red Stick was the result of aggressive marketing by the Baton Rouge Film Commission, said Paul Arrigo, chairman of the BRFC and president of the Baton Rouge Area Convention and Visitors Bureau.
“The Baton Rouge Film Commission was very involved with soliciting and nabbing ‘Twilight’ for Baton Rouge,” Arrigo said.
Mitchell-Smith said she worked hard to communicate constantly with the film’s producers, making herself available at all times for questions about production.
“We’re putting our best foot forward in the market and showing them exactly what it is they want to see,” she said. “This is about customer service, first and foremost.”
In addition to Louisiana’s tax incentives to production studios, Mitchell-Smith said Baton Rouge offers a wide array of benefits that lure projects to the city.
“The film industry obviously spends so much money locally that another major reason you have local offices like our Baton Rouge Film Commission is so we can be aggressive promoters and marketers of our area,” she said.
One of the city’s programs to benefit film studios is a “grassroots vendor discount program,” Mitchell-Smith said.
The program includes more than 70 local businesses, ranging from office supply stores to restaurants, spas and car rental companies, which typically offer 15- to 20-percent discounts to film productions.
In addition to helping keep production costs manageable for film studios, the program also benefits local businesses that get more traffic and can create brand awareness in the film industry, Mitchell-Smith said.
The production’s prolonged presence in Baton Rouge will be advantageous for local crew members who will have work for as long as the project is in the city.
“Sometimes you’re on a show for two to three months, then you’re looking for another production,” Mitchell-Smith said. “Folks on this [project] will have consistent employment and a huge resume builder, never even having to go to California.”
Mitchell-Smith said “Breaking Dawn” will be an “enormous boost” to Baton Rouge’s economy through set building and production work, as well as the stimulus of cast and crew who stay in hotels and eat in local restaurants.

Breaking Dawn: What We Know So Far

The most highly anticipated movie from The Twilight Saga is of course Breaking Dawn. With all of the rumors and speculations in the air, one can only guess as to what the final decisions will be. Well Pop Sugar has a break down of what we know so far.

As racy as that tropical island honeymoon sex scene in “Breaking Dawn” has the potential to be, the movies will stay PG-13, a Summit Entertainment executive told MTV News last week. Intrepid MTV News reporter Eric Ditzian spoke with distribution chief Richie Fay for all the advance “Breaking Dawn” details he could squeeze out of the guy, so we decided to make it easy on all of you, and give you a roundup of what we know so far:
1. IT WON’T BE RATED R
“I don’t see it ever becoming an R-rated movie,” Fay said. “The middle road we have to travel is a mutual respect as to staying true to the book but not turning off your audience.
“It’s always with the eye of making Stephenie Meyer happy and making the audience happy,” he added. “I can’t say for a fact, but I just don’t see us getting into an R-rated area with any of the ‘Twilight’ titles.”
2. PART 2 DOES NOT HAVE A RELEASE DATE
“We’ve targeted a number of dates, and we have yet to determine when it will happen,” Fay said. “We haven’t even determined that it will be the summer. It’s still the source of discussions.
“We might have a preference when we see where ‘Eclipse’ ends up,” he said of whether it’ll be released in summer or winter of 2012. “It certainly might color our thinking, but we’re comfortable with either place. Right now, it’s a bit early in that stage of planning.”
3. FILMING IN 3-D IS STILL A STRONG POSSIBILITY
“That decision has yet to be made,” Fay said. “It’s still the source of a discussion.”
While rising 3-D ticket prices are a consideration, it’s mostly a creative issue. “There’s certainly a financial part of the discussion,” he said. “And yes, there’s a certain amount of technology that has to be considered and accounted for. But it really comes down to the creative folks.”
“In any of these roundtabls conversations, [Summit CEO] Rob Friedman has always been concerned about the ‘Twilight’ patron,” Fay added. “His concern is always the people that come in to see this movie. He doesn’t want to turn them off or offend. That’s why it’s a creative decision. A big factor is the perception of our audience. What are their feelings going to be? If it lends itself to being a better movie because of 3-D, then that’s the technology we’ll use.”
