SUMMARY:Inside Breaking Bad
DESCRIPTION:Join BREAKING BAD actors RJ Mitte (Walter White Jr.) and Charles Baker (Skinny Pete) and writers\, directors and designers from the seminal show as they take you behind the scenes of the break-through series that put New Mexico’s entertainment industry on the map. \nMulti-faceted actor\, producer and model\, RJ Mitte is best known for his powerful performance as Walter “Flynn” White Jr. in “Breaking Bad. Mitte played the pivotal role of the disabled teenage son of a high school science teacher turned drug dealer\, played by Bryan Cranston. \nAt the age of three\, Louisiana native Mitte was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy\, much like his character on “Breaking Bad.” Although Mitte has a mild case of the same condition\, he had to do what all actors do: research the character and even relearn many of the challenges he had endured as a child in order to convey a more pronounced version of CP. \nCP has never deterred his drive to succeed in television and film. Mitte has appeared on Showtime’s “Weeds\,” NBC’s “Vegas\,” and CW’s “Everybody Hates Chris.” Following his “Breaking Bad” success\, RJ was thrust into the global spotlight as the celebrity face and model of GAP International’s 2014 campaign. Mitte has walked in Men’s Fashion Week in Milan\, Berlin and New York City. \nMitte transitioned into film as he starred in his first non-handicapped leading role alongside country music superstar\, Faith Hill\, in DIXIELAND in 2015. He continued to play leading roles in films like WHO’S DRIVING DOUG\, in 2016\, and\, most recently in the sci-fi\, action thriller THE RECALL alongside Wesley Snipes. Mitte also aims to produce several of his own film projects. \nMitte has been an inspiration to his peers around the world by championing for those with Cerebral Palsy in hopes of removing the stigma associated with disabilities. In order to bring awareness to his own issues with bullying and prejudice\, Mitte has engaged in public speaking and serves as the official Ambassador for United Cerebral Palsy and Shriners Hospitals for Children. He is the celebrity face for the #CutTheBull campaign launched October 2014 in support of children with disabilities. \nBorn in Washington\, DC and raised in Hawaii\, Charles Baker has lived a life most people write books about. The son of an army colonel\, Charles traveled the world by the time he was 17. He’s lived in England\, Israel\, and all over the US. Charles had a vocal scholarship at Tarrant County Junior College and then attended the University of Texas at Arlington. Originally a music major (he is a pianist)\, Charles took up theatre as a means to improve his singing career. Shortly thereafter\, the acting bug took over. Charles began his professional career on stage\, working at some of the best theatres in Dallas/Fort Worth – Circle Theatre\, Stage West\, and The Hip Pocket Theatre. He played “Skinny Pete” in Breaking Bad from 2008 to 2013. He has also had recurring roles on The Blacklist. Also noteworthy is that Charles worked in Adolescent Psychiatry as a “Recreational Therapist” – teaching basic theatre/improvisation skills for over 6 years. \nAdditional Breaking Bad crew members will also participate.

DESCRIPTION:Five accomplished women and one Latino male\, representing multiple areas in the entertainment industry\, will present a panel examining “Diversity and Inclusion in Entertainment” They will discuss the challenges and opportunities in entertainment for women\, minorities and others outside the mainstream of Hollywood. \nCybill Shepherd’s credits include actress\, model\, writer\, producer\, and author during her career of over 4 decades. Aside from the film industry\, Shepherd has been an outspoken activist for issues such as gay rights and abortion rights. In 2009\, she was honored by the Human Rights Campaign in Atlanta to accept one of two National Ally for Equality awards. A fervent civil rights supporter\, including gay rights\, she not only appeared in  “The L Word” (2004) but was once on the cover of The Advocate (in 1993). She has actively fought against racism and received a plaque from the National Civil Rights Museum in her hometown of Memphis\, Tennessee in 1992. The plaque was inscribed with the motto\, “equal opportunity and human dignity\,” followed by “Thank you Cybill Shepherd for helping break the chain of oppression.” \nPam Grier\, nominated for a Golden Globe and an NAACP Image Award for her performance in Jackie Brown\, was the first black woman to appear on the cover of MS. Magazine and was named as one of Ebony Magazine’s “100 Most Fascinating Women of the 20th Century”. Grier is profiled in “Women of Blaxploitation: How the Black Action Film Heroine Changed American Popular Culture” by Yvonne D. Sims (McFarland\, 2006).\nAnne Cofell Saunders began her career in television on the ground-breaking series “24\,” where she earned her first writing credit.  She then staffed on the critically acclaimed re-imagining of “BATTLESTAR GALACTICA” for which she received a Peabody Award. She was also nominated for a Hugo award for the fan-favorite episode “Pegasus.”  Additional credits include “CHUCK\,” “SMALLVILLE\,” and two Saturn awards for her work as Co-Executive Producer on NBC’s “REVOLUTION.” In 2016\, she served as Co-Executive Producer on NBC’s “TIMELESS\,” and will be a Co-Executive producer on “THE BOYS\,” airing on Amazon in 2019. Saunders has a BA from Northwestern University and an MFA in Playwriting from Ohio University.  She has taught TV writing at the USC School of Film and Television\, and has been a guest speaker at various schools and events. \nBrian Espinosa is the CEO of Optimism Entertainment and oversees the growth and development of the company’s talent\, music\, & sports divisions.

She has voiced over 300 characters! Marchi’s imdb bio quotes her as follows: “I believe any time you can thoroughly immerse yourself into any thing\, you will have a greater understanding of the product as well as a greater confidence supported by that knowledge. I count myself lucky that I’ve had the opportunities I’ve had in this industry.” \nMonica Rial\, actress and director\, is best known for her trademark shrill voices and has been heard often on the Cartoon Network and Adult Swim and is affiliated with Funimation and Seraphim Digital/ Sentai Filmworks. A Texas native\, she spent a lot of time in Spain while she was growing up as her father is from there. Rial said that out of the 300 or so characters she had voiced\, only two of them were Hispanic\, and she liked that her character wasn’t a stereotype\nEach of these individuals brings a unique perspective regarding the issues of gender\, diversity\, and inclusion in the entertainment industry. The discussion will be meaningful\, relevant\, and fascinating!

SUMMARY:Poster Release Party 2018
DESCRIPTION:The official commemorative poster for the 2018 Las Cruces International Film Festival (LCIFF)\, created this year by artist and photographer Mike Groves\, will be revealed at a party on Friday\, January 26 from 6 to 8 pm at Cutter Gallery\, 2640 El Paseo Rd\, Las Cruces. \nThe public is invited to attend and admission to the event is $25 which includes refreshments\, a signed copy of the poster\, and the opportunity to purchase VIP tickets to the Film Festival at a reduced price at the poster party. \nThe poster’s creator\, artist Mike Groves is best known for his awe-inspiring landscapes of the Organ Mountains\, White Sands\, and the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge\, his favorite haunts. A native New Mexican\, Groves has lived in Las Cruces since 1953. In high school\, he became interested in photography and took his first sunset photos. Although he never had formal training in photography\, he had a good eye for it. He studied and experimented while in college and after. His interest was outdoor and scenic images although he won ribbons for his portrait and still life images as well as landscapes. As his skills developed so did his love of the local scenery\, especially the Organ Mountains. He is particularly proud of his triptychs and panoramic images. He feels these better show off the expanse of the Mountains\, White Sands\, and other landscapes. His love of the area and its natural beauty is evident in his work. \nAccording to the Film Festival’s Executive Director Ross Marks\, “We are delighted to continue the tradition of LCIFF Commemorative Posters extraordinarily designed by local artists.” \nPoster Party tickets and information are available at Visit Las Cruces\, 211 Water St.\, by clicking “Get Tickets”\, or call (575) 646-6149.
