"I never thought I'd be pretending to date Stephanie Tanner," said Brandon Luck, who plays Falling Fast drummer Lee. "She's definitely a cool chick, and I had a lot of fun working with her."
The cast and crew of "Hollywood East" form a tight-knit group, passing the time between takes laughing, joking and making fun of each other. A few cast members even live together. The group is made up of a network of friends and former colleagues that enjoyed working with each other in the past and came together to make the show.
"There's a lot of cool people in Wilmington, and once you find awesome people that you love to work with, you collaborate on future projects," said Director Charles Stewart, Jr.
"Hollywood East" began filming in July 2009. So far they've completed six episodes and are currently filming the seventh and eighth. The show is airing in 220 countries and has been picked up by local Wilmington station WWAY (ABC) and WWAY's digital station (channel 903).
"The show airs late-night on the local WWAY channel and at 9 p.m. on the digital channel," said Woodward. "We're looking at better times."
"Hollywood East" is presented as a multimedia project and is accessible via TV, iTunes, Facebook and MySpace. The first episode, as well as a few promos, is available for free download on iTunes. Fans can also join the show's Facebook group for updates, stills and behind-the-scenes photos.
"We're all having a lot of fun on the set and hope everyone enjoys it," Luck said.

"Hollywood East" is a scam.
None of Woodward's projects have ever made a dime for any of his investors.
This one is no different.

They might be a scam, but they're helping out a local shirt company (which employs current UNCW business students I might add) by featuring their products in the show's wardrobe. (Continued…)

So it's cool if hard working people are scammed out of their time and money as long as the UNCW business students benefit from the whole situation?
Cool, just checking. (Continued…)
