365: A New Show on the Rise


Drag Queens and rap stars and pop princesses- oh my! We're not in Gan Adan anymore... 

A new anthology series that focuses on a different character's life for the duration of a year begins this December. Season One follows fallen rock star, Gwendolyn Fay in her pursuit of happiness... which of course depends on everyone and everything else around her. Set in Hollywood, CA- will the former Queen of Rock turn her life around by the end of the year?



The series is written and created by Monroe Hayden who magically created Fox and produced by Hunter Tabiendo and Daniel Rodriguez. The season is directed by newcomer, Ricky Garcia, who is better known for playing Brian Whittaker in Fox. The show also stars Hayden and Garcia as the leading roles, Gwendolyn Fay and her ex- husband, John Black. Other Fox alumni include Terrell Cooper as Kelvin Harris, Angel New as Emaya, Hunter Tabiendo as Penolope Beefcake, Jorgie Mason as Eliza and Steven Acedo as Miguel.



"We love Fox and love that genre but we also love satires. We love films and shows that make fun of life yet reel it in when things need to, so you get just enough reality yet can still laugh through all the mishaps. It wasn't until we all got together when we realized that we're playing ourselves, just an overly exaggerated version," Monroe Hayden said about the production. "365 is about redemption and it's about letting go and growing up."


"Makeup is really fun when its challenging and this show had its challenge," makeup artist, Liz Lanz Shattner said about her experience with transforming Hunter Tabiendo into drag queen sensation, Penolope Beefcake. "There's a lot more work that goes into Hunter's makeup than Monroe's." Drag queen's aside, the show proves to have its other challenges for the makeup department that differ from SkySoft's previous show; era's. As we follow Gwendolyn on her road to redemption, we are swept back and forth throughout time ranging from the years, 2000 - 2017.


From wigs to eyeliner, each decade represents a certain event in Gwen's life whether it's the rise of her career or the fall of her marriage- specific years become essential stamps to the story and Lanz- Shattner is the wizard with the wand to transform our young actors into their characters. Gwen and John were 21 when they were married and divorced at 28. By the time we meet them it's been 10 years and the former couple are now 38 years old. Bags under the eyes, smile lines and gray hair come with the package!



 365 is rated M for Mature for language, sexuality, brief nudity and drug use. Stream the full season on December 18, 2017 at www.skysoftentertainment.com

Racism and White Privilege: America's Most Enduring and Lethal Disease

by Daniel Andrade Courtesy of the Library of Congress For over 400 years, since before the United States gained its independence, this country has suffered from a toxic disease that it has never been able to cure itself of. It may not be the same type of poison that it started off as, but it has evolved and persisted and continues to be just as dangerous today. America has a problem, and that problem is racism and the white privilege that has allowed this racism to persist as long as it has. What has made this problem much more glaring recently is the tragic death of George Floyd under the knee of former Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin.  While there have unfortunately been too many similar incidents involving police officers or other white men either brutally attacking or killing black men, many of which have also been recorded on camera, this incident was particularly grievous. Many are familiar with the appalling stories of Trayvon Martin , Tamir Rice , Philando ...

The Mythology of Mayari

Courtesy of SkySoft Entertainment by Daniel Andrade With the recent announcement of SkySoft’s first feature film being developed, many were excited about the potential for Mayari . But did you know that Mayari is named after an actual goddess from Filipino mythology? While many of us may be familiar with the mythology of ancient Egypt (like Anubis), ancient Greece (Zeus and Athena, for example), and even Norse mythology (thanks to fan-favorite Avenger Thor and his father Odin), the deities of the Philippines are not as well known. With that in mind, I thought it would be a great idea to do a crash-course in these fascinating gods and goddesses to prepare us for what to expect in Mayari . Before moving on, it’s important to note one thing. Due to the nature of folklore, it’s not uncommon for these stories to have slight alterations or distinctions depending on the region where they are coming from. And even within one region itself, there are still sometimes variations withi...
