1st Filipino Hollywood Actors Panel (2015)

FilAm Creative presents the 1st Filipino Hollywood Actors Panel - a panel discussion and networking event featuring special guest panelists representing the craft of acting across the board while shining a spotlight on Filipino American actors in Hollywood today. Watch our special guest panelists ~ JANET TSCHA (talent agent, Janet Tscha Talent, formerly with Arlene Thornton and Associates), BILLY DAMOTA (casting director, C.S.A.), EUGENE CORDERO (actor and improv teacher, "Kong: Skull Island," "Ghostbusters," "Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates") and TESS PARAS (actress, writer and producer, "Typecast," "Grimm," "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend") ~ discuss their explorations of the process and profession of acting; their reflections on personal experiences and artistic influences that informed and shaped their careers; their discussions of past and current projects and share valuable insights into the craft and the industry. This may be the first (or one of the only) events held specifically targeting Filipino American actors. There are 4 million Filipinos in the United States yet, Filipinos are under-represented in film and television today. Why is that?
