Vancouver, BC – On May 2nd 2012, The Motion Picture Arts & Sciences Foundation of British Columbia released their list of nominees for the 2012 Leo Awards - the B.C. Film & Television Industry’s highest honors. The list that recognizes the finest work being done by the BC Film & TV industry includes nominations for popular series such as Smallville,Supernatural & The Killing as well as a newcomer, Hitman 101, a 100% BC produced online series that has already earned international awards & acclaim, adding another feather to it’s cap with a Leo Award nomination for ‘Best Web Series’.
Fresh off nine awards at the LA Web Fest in April including the Grand Jury Prize of the festival, the Leo Awards are another opportunity for Hitman 101 - a crime thriller about a week in the life of a mysterious assassin, to show that there is a world of filmmakers growing their craft on the internet, and that to find compelling entertainment you don’t have to always head to the theater or turn on the TV.
For lead actor Georgie Daburas, who was personally honored for Outstanding Achievement in Acting at the LA Web Fest, the Leo Awards are yet another honor for a project that seems to be continuously exceeding itself:
“To think that we started shooting in July 2011 without a budget and barely a crew and turned out a 12 episode 90 minute series in less than 9 months that is already winning accolades, and awards, and is now nominated for the biggest industry award ceremony in British Columbia… I think we can officially say we made something special.”
Hitman 101 is once again in prestigious company with it’s nomination as Ivan Hayden’s Divine: The Series is also up for the Leo for ’Best Web Series’. Divine - a dark supernatural action-adventure with religious undertones, has brought the look and feel of blockbuster movies to the Internet with their ground breaking six episode pilot series. Divine was also a big winner at the LA Web Fest and shared top honors with Hitman 101 as one of the top ten series to be official selections for the Marseille Web Festival, Europe’s first & largest online-series festival.

NEW YORK, N.Y. – As a kid, I dreamed of having a telephone that was plugged into my family’s TV and would let me ring up whoever I was watching. With this special phone, I could reach my favourite TV stars, introduce myself and talk to them about their shows.
It would’ve been so great. But I always knew it was an impossible dream.
Flash forward a few decades. On a Thursday night last month, Kerry Washington, the star of such films as “Ray” and “The Last King of Scotland,” was live-tweeting answers to questions tweeted from viewers as they watched the premiere of her new ABC series, “Scandal.”
Washington was at her mother’s New York apartment, where family and friends were gathered for a viewing party in her honour. Continue Reading

Follow us on LinkedIn - Television industry witnessed several revolutionary changes since the dawn of the new millennium, with “digitalization” being the most prominent among these changes. Growing demand for high-quality audio and video content among viewers, keen desire among television broadcasters to allow more channels in same spectrum and that too at lower costs, and stringent government mandates ordering termination of all analog TV broadcasts, have been driving increased adoption of digital television, thereby driving market for Internet TV.
