The Las Vegas Film Festival had another successful year!


Lea & Lou


The Las Vegas Film Festival (www.lvfilmfest.com) rolled in to town on July 19-22. Film fans from around the valley flocked to check out the latest in Independent Films and to have the opportunity to ask questions from respected writers and producers. Topics such as how to turn your screen play into a film, and exactly what a producer does were two of the workshops that were very popular.

This year Actress Lea Thompson who has had a career that spans huge blockbuster movies (Back to the Future Franchise) and the beloved TV series Caroline in the City was honored  with the 2012 Female Indie Icon Winner Award! Looking beautiful and composed on the red carpet Lea posed for fans and looked spectacular in a royal blue cocktail dress. The 2012 Male Indie Icon Award Winner was another film actor that has brought to life many iconic roles, “Chappy” from the Iron Eagle films Lou Gossett Jr. Looking utterly at ease Lou also walked the red carpet and posed and thanked his fans for coming out.

Steven
Also seen on the Red Carpet was Las Vegas’ favorite actor Steven Gantt (stevengantt.net)from the hit series Showtime’s Gigolos. He answered questions from fans and when you are that handsome and wearing Tom Ford all is right in the world! 
Heather

This year was Actress Heather Marianna’s (HeatherMarianna.TV) first time on the red carpet and she looked stunning in a form fitting yellow Herve Leger dress she also carried a beautiful Swarovski encrusted evening bag courtesy of Las Vegas favorite Sparkle by Pattys Closet (www.facebook.com/SparklebyPattysCloset .)  When asked about her beautiful purse Heather answered "They have the most amazing jewelry and accessories! You really need to go shopping there."

This film festival brings to Las Vegas people who enjoy films, people who want to be in films, screenwriters, directors and is a festival that continues to grow every year!  If you are an aspiring film maker be sure and check out the website for 2013’s contests.
