We did some site restructuring today, redesigning the corporate section, and adding some new information about our branded entertainment services. The web shows page also gets a fresh three column look with some more show information and new logos.

We just principal photography on Angels: Local 437. Post has already begun and we’re right on track to launch next month. Here’s a sneak peak of what things look like in Heaven.

Our next web show, Angels: Local 437, is now in production. Actors Ennis Esmer and Tom Barnett will play the roles of Nate and Joel who are two Angels trying to climb the corporate ladder in this twisted comedy.

We’re planning to launch the first episode of ten episodes before Christmas, and i’ll be updating you on the production progress as we get closer to launch.

Today we’re adding another web show to our 2008 production slate. It’s called Table Topics and it’s a talk show for women covering current events, celebrity gossip, and everything else in between. We’ve started casting and we expect to go into production at the end of November. We’re aiming to launch two episodes a week starting in December.

Tim Shore of the popular Toronto blogto.com just posted a review for Byte Club. We’re happy to let him know that he can expect more ‘variety’ as the episodes progress. Our latest episode covering Democamp 18 just launched on Wednesday and next week we visit web architects Devlin.

After four years of running the Toronto Film Challenge, spanning 12 events, over 300 films, with 2500 competitors, it is with a heavy heart that we announce we will no longer continue the festival into 2009.

We’ve decided instead to focus more of our attention on our online video division and putting more web shows into production.

We’d like to thank all the filmmakers, fans, and sponsors who have been so sportive over the last four years and we look forward to seeing more films from the many talented individuals who entered the festival.

All the winning films from the past four years can be seen on the Toronto Film Challenge website. We hope you all enjoyed the festival as much as we did. Thanks Toronto!

The first episode of our new web show, Byte Club, has just launched over at byteclub.tv. For this episode we visited b5media to find out a little more about their blogging network and company culture. New episodes will be launching each week.

This weekend we’re holding our Fall 24-hour Toronto Film Challenge. Yesterday morning at 10am, 160 filmmakers took to the Toronto streets to make a short film in just 24-hours. As the dust settled this morning, 12 teams made the deadline providing some very impressive films. The judging takes place this week, with $10,000 in prizes being awarded this Friday at the Bloor Cinema at 7pm. Congratulations goes out to all the competing filmmakers!

We’re pleased to announce the launch of our first weekly web show: the Men’s Room.

Each episode runs approximately 21 minutes and we’re planning for a 20 episode season. Feedback, as always, is welcome at info(at)mensroom.tv.
