You may never have heard the name Kendra Kilbourn before, and that is fine, because she is completely new to this whole business. The one thing you will not regret, though, is purchasing her brand new book "Lovely Shadows".

Synopsis:
Jessa Grace's quiet small-town life is shaken when the ghost of Aidan Summers begins following her. Killed in a fiery car crash, Aidan isn't convinced his death was an accident: He believes he was murdered. Because she is the only one who can see him, Jessa agrees to help him find his killer if it means he can rest in peace and she can get her life back.

With the help of her best friend Billie Adams, Jessa and Aidan begin unraveling the mystery surrounding his death. Jessa soon realizes that so much more than Aidan's soul is at stake: her heart, and possibly her life, are on the line, complicating her otherwise perfect relationship with her boyfriend Levi Moore.
She knows she promised to help Aidan but is the price too high? Or is the risk worth it for the chance to experience the kind of love that transcends even death?

Robert Downey, Jr. receives "Hero Award" at Screams Awards

When Robert Downey, Jr. was presented with "Hero Award" during the 2011 Screams Award, Colin Farrell just had to recite a love poem for him:

"If I liked boys in that way
I’d celebrate him everyday.
Alas, I don’t. It’s plain to see.
And yet he’s still my cup of tea.
He’s got big balls, the bravest kind.
Inside that iron suit you’ll find
a man quite born to save the day,
or solve the crime the thoughtful way.
A wicked wit, the keenest mind,
and if you’re trapped you might just find
he’ll blast the door, or pick the lock
and prove himself. No shit, Sherlock.
"
Colin Farrell to Robert Downey, Jr.

Project Save Our Surf





The fourth annual Project Save Our Surf event took place this past weekend on the beach of Santa Monica. The celebrity surfathon benefited Santa Monica Baykeeper, Waves for Water, Inside the Outdoors and Tumelo Home. Artists on Demand was invited to attend day two of this amazing event.

Celebrity surfers in attendance on Sunday were John Slattery from Mad Men, Tate Donovan from Damages, Gregory Harrison from One Tree Hill, Michael Munoz from Amazing Race and Peter Brinkerhoff, a Daytime Emmy winning director. Although the Celebrity Surfing Session started late by 15 minutes, the judges cut no time off their overall time in the water. The competition took place for 45 minutes, judging on a scale from 1 to 10 on degree of difficulty, progressive maneuvers, long boarding style and short boarding style. If you think the judges were starstruck and ranked their favorite celebrities higher, think again! The judges had no idea who was in the water! The celebrities were each dressed in a specific neon colored shirt with a number on their back and the judges referred to them as so. The conditions were challenging with short, fast waves. These were definitely not beginner conditions, but then again, these celebrities have had some experience in the water. Many stars have a history of surfing as a pastime and a source of exercise. That relation to the water is one of the many reasons they show up to support such a great event. They were asked to raise and/or donate money for the cause and they gladly pulled through!

Locals were encouraged to attend the event and watch the Pro Surfer and Celebrity Surfing Sessions. The many people in attendance also enjoyed live music, mural painting and eco-friendly exhibits to name a few. Ocean Force Foundation had a booth informing people of ocean-related issues. At 1pm they hosted an impromptu beach cleanup. Many SOS volunteers, surfers and people in attendance participated in the cleanup. Everyone involved in this event had such a passion to keep our oceans clean and people walked away with a strong sense of awareness to ocean threats. We can't wait to attend Project Save Our Surf next year and we encourage you to become involved!

Artistic Analogies Film Co.'s Kevin M. Slee works on "The Thing" prequel

Kevin M. Slee, director/producer and Laguna Niguel native had been busy since the last time we caught up with him.

With his film production company Artistic Analogies Film Co., he worked on short films such as "The Secret Life of Jonathan Sky," and Matthew Anderson's "Franky, Frankly" which stars Mikandrew Perdaris, Bella Dayne, and "True Blood"'s Allan Hyde.

This time Slee, 21, embarked on working on the prequel of the classic horror "The Thing." Slee worked alongside producer David Foster who also produced the original film back in 1982. Slee began as Foster's assistant which progressed to a creative executive role in Foster's company over the year.

In an interview with LagunaNiguelPatch, Slee stated that the prequel, "The Thing" has some "real substance." He added, "It's not a horror film that relies on gore but one that relies more on the tension of the characters. Most of the horror films today seem to be missing character development and we never get to know the characters. This film is different."

Slee worked on the "The Thing" last summer and attended its premiere last week in Hollywood. He stated that ""The Thing" is the first studio feature I had a part in and it's pretty exciting," he said."It was cool to go back to a film that is 30 years old that David produced in 1982 that starred Kurt Russell and do a prequel that has a budget of $35 million. Most of the features that I have worked on have been independent films with budgets closer to $300,000."

Slee, a Film Production and Political Science major at the Chapman University has great projects lined up including a remake of the film "Short Circuit." He is also working with Bryan Singer's (director "The Usual Suspects," "X-Men") company, Bad Hat Harry Productions, the same company that brought TV shows like "House" on Fox.

"The Thing" was produced by Universal Studios and David Foster and directed by Matthijs van Heijningen Jr. It stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Eric Christian Olsen, Joel Edgerton, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Ulrich Thomsen, Kim Bubbs, Trond Espen Seim, Stig Henrik Hoff, Jonathan Walker, and Carsten Bjørnlund.

"The Thing" is currently out in theaters.

Congratulations Kevin!

Ex-Weezer Bassist Dead at 40


Ex-Weezer bassist, Mikey Welsh was found dead in his Chicago hotel room on Sunday morning. The hotel staff at the Rafaello Hotel in Chicago found the artists after he failed to check out of his hotel room. He was 40.

The strange and eery part of this story is that Welsh had semi-predicted his own death weeks early on twitter. He had posted "dreamt i died in chicago next weekend (heart attack in my sleep). need to write my will today." His band mates from Weezer posted on Welsh's Twitter page stating, "We are deeply saddened to announce that Mikey Welsh passed away unexpectedly today. He will forever be remembered as an amazing father, artists, and friend. May he rest in peace."

This marks another sad day in the music world as we lose another great musician.

MTV Joins the Digital Drama Fight with DISconnected


Celebrities, networks, and organizations are joining the fight to stop digital drama. A few months back ABC Family released Cyberbully, a movie that showcased the effects of cyber bulling and digital drama. ABC Family had joined ranks with Seventeen Magazine to put an end to the violence.

MTV premieres an original movie tonight at 9 pm EST called 'DISconnected' to join the fight to put an end to digital drama.

Here is quick synopsis of what you can expect from the original MTV movie:
"DISconnected" tells the story of four young people in living in different cities who know each other through a live streaming site. Isaiah is a big presence on the site, but has trouble relating to his girlfriend Nikki when they're together. Lisa's attraction to her boyfriend Jack -- who she met online -- heats up as she makes plans to meet up with him. Maria's constant texting of her boyfriend John ignites a break-up feud that extends to their friends and profiles. Tom refuses to reveal his identity when he posts his music online, but antagonizes others from the safety of his bedroom laptop. All of them are dealing with digital drama that complicates their loves, friendships and lives. One night, it all spins out of control. 

 Artists On Demand joins the fight as well to put an end to digital drama. Join digital hands with us, along with ABC Family, MTV, and Seventeen Magazine to help put an end to the bullying that takes the lives of today's youth. Tune in tonight at 9 pm EST to get a good look at what digital drama causes.
