Brandon Wane

I met Brandon several years ago while working at Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios. He was an extremely eager and imaginative individual and let me know about his experiences with film making. I told him that I had an idea for a script and before I knew it he was gathering a team together to shoot it. He was one of the few people who actually took my kooky ideas seriously and not only that but he's an extremely hard worker.  His body of work is the by product of an hard working film maker who doesn't take no for an answer. He manages to accomplish what he sets his mind on with a smile and a soft voice, without making any one feel badly. Brandon is extremely inclusive and resourceful. He's like a one man army who pushes through a production until it's finished. He might recruit some assistance here or there, however if the production is short staffed, he is not afraid to get his hands dirty. If you haven't seen any thing from Lo Pictures I highly suggest that you check them out. You won't be disappointed!

Bret Hoveskeland

Bret hasn't completed many books, but that's because he's one of those examples of the phrase that you can't rush greatness. He's a writer with a million vivid ideas brewing in his mind to such a vibrant state that when they finally erupt it's typically beyond anything you've seen before. I was lucky enough to receive a copy of his poetry book the Oxytocin Opera and I was absolutely blown away. He managed to write a book that feels like performance with a cohesive theme running through the entire piece. His table of contents is called a "set list" and the entire book is separated into two Acts. It's as though it's for an imaginary live performance about the tribulations of a relationship and the book turns the reader into the performer of the pieces. This kind of forward thinking and creativity is what sets Bret apart from most authors. If his other future works are anything like this one, then this individual has a longstanding, innovative career ahead of himself. 

EyeQ

Today's feature is an extremely prolific rapper by the name of EyeQ, he started off as simply a photographer for the Nerd music scene. I never knew anyone as passionate as Chris about the music and the scene, he introduced me to the music of MegaRan which I'm eternally grateful for. Wherever he goes he has a joy for life that can't be replicated, his energy is youthful and infectious. If you're in a room with EyeQ you will be dancing like it or not. His music is brilliant and his rhymes are extremely sharp without resorting to profanities. Since his transformation from photographer to rapper, he's performed sporadically around the country. From South by south west to Florida music Festival. The world patiently awaits for his first full length album to release, if everything he's released so far is any indication, EyeQ's debut will be amazing. This is one artist who's got a long music career ahead of him.

Evan Miga

Even though his face or his name may not be familiar, Evan is responsible for reinventing how one thinks about Fringe and local theater in general. A master of graphic design, Evan took an extremely imaginative concept to the stage and it has erupted into a movement. Evan is one of the masterminds behind Dog Powered Robot, a cartoon network calibre presentation featuring large cardboard robots which interact with and entertain an enamored audience. Evan has taken this concept and ran with it, some "robots" have appeared at schools and various concerts. Dog powered robot is the kind imaginative whimsy which is distinctly orlando. While the robots and sets are made out of cardboard, the production quality is extremely high enough to rival anything kids watch these days. There's actually word that DPR is heading to cable television eventually. With acts like this one it's easy to see that imagination is alive and well in Orlando Florida. 

Barbra Hughes

   I was fortunate enough to have Barbra as a featured artist at N3RD NIGHT, her energetic art fit in with the art extremely well. Her art has a pop style to it that reminds me of Pollock but has much more structure and purpose then his works. Some of the art is geometric but regardless of the structure, all of her pieces have a magnetic energy that just makes you feel so great by simply looking at them. A lot of artists pour themselves into their work, and with Barbara it's no exception. All of her paintings are filled with personality and joy that just radiates off the canvas. 

B. Renee Fine Art

I discovered a very interesting artist through AAL365...B.Renee. Her delicate style has a subtle embrace and truly evokes gentle emotions. Her paintings range from various types of landscapes and emerge onto the canvas like a dream slowly coming into existence. I'm very fond of her color selection and the wispy silhouettes of distant skylines. The warm cozy feeling that her pictures gives me invites me to continue to look at every corner of the painting consuming me and waking up my imagination as I transcend into her dream world. When you get a chance take a look at her wonderful art.
