Young Hollywood

Hey guys, it's Michelle Marri with Young Hollywood and Vitamin Water. We are here in Park City, Utah for the Sundance Film Festival. We're going to walk up and down Main Street and show you what it's like to get all the free swag. Let's go. We're here at Sundance. If you can sum it up in a few words, how is the experience this year? Because I know that you've been before.

Guest

Well, this year's been uh, every year of the last probably five years it's gotten better as far as charity stuff. It's grown and grown and grown. What's going on with Haiti. I was just a waiter at the MySpace Cafe where I made $500 in tips. They go directly to Haiti. That's amazing. Yeah, I know it's amazing cuz that's more than I've made acting in years. So, uh, I'm considering going back to waiting. But but there's always uh, especially Carey by C, they always do a component this year that's sincere, that is a charity component. And so we come in here, we don't feel, you know, bad.

Young Hollywood

We're here hanging out front row at the ESPN game day event at Sundance with Tara Manning and DJ Cobra, who killed it last night on stage I might say. There's so much to do like during the day, during the night. How do you guys keep yourself energized the whole time? Cuz it's so hard to like be If you don't really sleep, you know, the whole time.

Guest

Yeah. It's hard. I mean, I've been drinking Vitamin Water like crazy today. Like it kinda gives me energy, revive. Yeah. I mean. Go outside for a second in the cold and you get like a fit when you're like, Oh, it's amazing. So.

Young Hollywood

What would you say it's like out here? I mean, it's pretty crazy. You bring all of LA to here. It's sort of two kind of completely different worlds colliding in in Park City, which is a third completely different world. But, you know, I think that especially this year what people have been talking about so much is is bringing it back to what it's really about, which is, which is these films, these independent filmmakers who are, you know, making it happen with nothing, you know, going out there with half a million dollars, quarter of a million dollars, getting good actors, discovering new talent and telling stories that, you know, aren't gonna be seen in a theater near you. So the viewers that have never been here, what is it really like?

Guest

It's exciting. Uh, you know, there's a lot of energy. I I think it's there's something kinda homey about it just because it feels like you're I mean, it feels like you are in a small town and you've got the snow coming down in the slopes and I it's just I don't know, it kinda feels like Christmas all over.

Young Hollywood

Yeah, I mean certainly waking up this morning felt like, oh my God. What's the coolest thing you got here at Sundance?

Guest

Uh, I got these amazing bracelets. Yeah. Which are pretty awesome. I got a cool I got a cool jacket.

Young Hollywood

We're here at the Sky Lodge with Shiloh Fernandez of Skateland. Here promoting your movie that's getting so much buzz. How do you feel about Sundance so far?

Shiloh Fernandez

Oh, it's amazing. I'm I'm happy to be here with the film in competition.

Young Hollywood

Shiloh Fernandez

Yeah, these are the clothes that I wear every day. I've never had a puffy jacket. Yeah. And I've never kind of like been into it and they sent me this was it Puma? Yeah. And I was just like, you know what? I can I can wear this time. I remember two years ago when I was here it was freezing. Right. You know. So this has kept me really warm.
