LocaMotion Derailed Trailer is online

You may have noticed that we posted a trailer for the Loca film short today. It's been a great experience working on this project with Stevie and Angel but it's also a bit of relief to put this project to bed. At least that's what I thought, until now that Angel and I are looking through film festival calendars. Being that this is my first time l never knew that a press/sales package for the film is as important as the film, and almost as much work to create. In fact, a film festival director told Angel that festivals are more about the filmmakers than the films. Funny when I've gone to festivals I go to see the films not filmmakers, but I guess it depends one which side of the camera you are sitting.

I mention this because in the next few weeks, Stevie, Angel and myself will be looking at film festivals, online festivals and other viewing opportunities that are available to us. I have no doubt that Loca will keep her fans updated and I'll try to add a few behind the scenes tidbits for hardcore Loca fans. Meanwhile let me get back to putting our glossy sales package together, after all this is show business and we still have some business to get done.

A New Year


A new year has begun… and for us it’s looks like it’s going to be an exciting year.

When Angel and I began this site we began with no real expectations. At the very least we thought it would be fun to post our animations, film shorts and maybe make a few friends along the way. To our surprise, people have responded with enthusiasm and encouragement to our efforts. We’ve also met awesome artists, filmmakers and actors that have inspired us with their stories and work.

After our first year of publishing, we’ve realized that the only thing holding us back is our ability to create and develop new content. There is an abundance of Latin talent out in the community and we are excited to bring these talented artists to our site as fast as possible.

We plan to open the art gallery, hold online film festivals and much more this year, so be sure to visit us throughout the year. We also look forward to reading your comments and suggestions to make this site the best representation of Latin art on the Internet.

Thank you to everyone for making the cafĂ© a special place for us and have a great year…. and remember, be creative!!!

Angel and Paul
