The Travelling Masterclass

Kent takes a chair next to the man with the Academy Award-winning eye behind the lens of documentaries like THE COVE, and dramatic features such as IN LIKE FLYNN. Greg Huglin has traveled the world capturing the incredible with his camera, but nowadays, he and his wife tour Queensland schools in rural Australia, bringing the joys and wonderment of the film-making process to those whom may never have ever considered it a life's pursuit.

Paré Lives!

Kent sits in awe of that legendary actor whose credit list is the stuff of legend, the irrepressible Michael Paré. Having appeared on screens big and small, in one form or another, for 40 + years, Paré is a passionate performer you knows what he likes when he sees it...and in his time...he's seen quite a bit. The legend is here...so find a comfy chair...and we'll go cruising with that guy who looks a little like Eddie Wilson...

My First Leading Lady

Kent finally gains an audience with the effervescent and explosively talented, Emily Whitcomb. She has been the lady in the lead, fighting her way away from lustful bandits, bloodsucking vampires - not to mention mutant marauders. Still with grace and poise under pressure, Emily is also as personally enchanting as the characters she breaths life into.
