Jeff Hoferers web series Dallywood is back for its 3rd episode, "The Mentor." This time Jeff hires a mentor to help him book his next big acting gig. Also, there's pudding! (and a special guest appearance by the infamous RR. Robert Rodriguez? Think Rios.)

Ep. #2 of Dallywood, Jeff and Bryan obsess over what might possibly be (or not) the single most important ratings system in the history of the internet...the STARmeter. How do you rank?

Jeff Hoferer's web series Dallywood shines a satirical light on the Dallas acting community and is way better than The Bachelorette.

One of the filmmakers the ShortFilmTexas.com team had a chance to talk to after the screening is a woman by the name of Jennifer Horst. Jennifer was editor on director Anna Dewell-Bussartts short documentary film Women @ Work. Women @ Work takes a candid look at three very different women who have found their place in the work force alongside men. While each of the three woman showcased in this film have very different stories and jobs, they all share one thing in common and that is a passion for what the do. Currently, Jennifer is working on a documentary about the different communities which interact with the Rio Grande river.

Chick Flicks, WomenInFilm.Dallas’ year-long film series, celebrates their talented membership by featuring four outstanding shorts by WIF.D members. ShortFilmTexas.com was lucky enough to attend the June 18th Event at the Studio Movie Grill in Addison, Texas and had a blast. One of the filmmakers I had the chance to talk to after the screening is a woman by the name of Angie Alexander. Angie’s film “I’ll Take Care of You” tells the tale of a woman in search of justice and trust me when I say you'll never listen to your vehicle’s satellite navigation provider quite the same again. A native Texan, Angie Alexander is the founder of Tempest Production Company which creates educational films and documentaries.
