Weekly Wrap-Up
I didn't post enough this week, but I am going to try and keep the posts going from Monday through Friday to give you the scoop on what is happening here on the West Coast. So, here's the rundown in case you missed it:
A Prius on ice.
Monday-Wednesday: Plug-In Conference 2010: For those of you who are alternative fuel vehicle minded and like to get your nerd on like me, look no further than this conference in San Jose for the latest in hybrid and battery technology. With a host of new vehicles coming from Nissan, Chevy, Mitsubishi, Ford, and Toyota, there is going to be a wave of PHV (Plug-In Hybrids) and BEV (Battery Electric Vehicles) coming to help green the Earth. While I was there with Toyota and my future vehicle of choice, the PHV Prius, I can assure you that most manufacturers are working hard on improving the charging station infrastructure and moving further away from our reliance on oil. If anyone is looking for more information or wants to engage in a lively and geeky discussion on alternative fuel, be sure to leave a comment below.
Me and my future vehicle, the Toyota PHV Prius.
Wednesday: MoreWireLess: It's another week of MoreWireLess sponsored by Broadcom. This week's episode talks about Bluetooth in Consumer Electronics. It's a short video that is worth a watch so you can make fun of me for the worst Wii Bowling game ever. My Facebook page also makes an appearance, see if you can spot it in the shot:
Thursday: ITVFest: One of my favorite events of the year is the annual Independent Television Festival in Hollywood. The opening night gala is always a high octane affair and this year did not disappoint. With Illeana Douglas as the night's honoree, sightings of Desperate Housewives tasty treat, James Denton, and a solid mix of LA, NY, and Texas web series, it was a hot night on the red carpet. Check out all of the coverage from that evening on Mingle Media TV, but here are a few of my favorite interviews and moments:
James Denton:
Hot on the Red Carpet with Erin Brown (Watch us get kicked OFF of the red carpet for James Denton and Illeana Douglas Ah, Hollywood, the great equalizer.)
Squatters:
By the way, I have obviously become the biggest hugger on the red carpet. You will see it in the Squatters interview above and a few caught in the act photos below:
And the most scandalous (and staged!) one of them all, Bernie Su of Compulsions.

See you on the next red carpet. I am ready with a hug!

5th Annual ITVFest
You will notice a few Web Files veterans on the list: A Good Knight's Quest, SOLO the Series, Squatters, Odd Jobs, The Fall of Kaden, GOLD, and Olga Kay's Circus. I feel good that we have presented quality shows on The Web Files and they are reaching an even greater audience with the festival. If you are attending the festival, be on the lookout for some higher profile pilots like Twenty Six Miles featuring the wildly talented, grossly underused, John Schneider as well as Jeffrey Tambor, George Segal, and James Denton. Another standout to watch is 15 Minutes which gives a behind the scenes look at the world of Hollywood PR. Creator, Bobby Salomon, mentioned on the panel that he was told by naysayers that, "No one wants to do a show about Hollywood." Oh really, I beg to differ. Look for the pilot that features another personal favorite, Allison LaPlaca and John Larroquette. Finally, don't underestimate the animation category with ITVFest favorite, Stephen Leonard, and his series, Time Traveling Finger. It's his third year here and given the super secret news he passed along to me at the Gala last night, this won't be the last you see his work.
I will be back with all of the coverage and photos from last night's red carpet gala with Mingle Media TV soon, so come back and visit Red Carpet Closet. Be sure to check out the schedule below (double click to zoom in.) and get out there and support independent TV and web series. Congratulations to all of the creators!
