The New Hollywood


by Chris Davison, chris@lthmedia.com
With a DVD, you buy it wherever and it will play in any DVD player or in your computer, regardless of maker. With an mp3, you buy it wherever and it will play in any digital audio player or in your computer, regardless of maker. With digital video files, you buy an AVI or an MOV or a WMV or an FLV or perhaps an MKV and it might play in your computer or it might not, it might play in your mobile phone but it probably won’t, and forget about playing it in your DVD player.

JHRTS News & Announcements
by Brian Toombs, JHRTS Co-President


JHRTS closed out 2009 with a bang! Our annual Holiday Party was held at the exclusive Hollywood nightclub MyHouse this year and surpassed all previous Holiday Parties in terms of attendance, sponsorships and total money raised.  We were excited to include nearly all major networks, studios, agencies and production companies as part of our sponsorship group and welcomed almost 800 young industry professionals from every part of the business into the party. Most gratifying for our organization was the substantial amount of money we raised for Feeding America, a national charity aimed at ending hunger in America.
