Wonacott Helps Takehollywood with a ‘Latinos in Hollywood’ Panel Event

To help drive event attendance, our team handled Takehollywood’s social communications across multiple platforms and also worked with the talent/panelists (drafting their social promotions as well) to help promote the event.

The Wonacott gang then gathered with Takehollywood at The Actors Company in West Hollywood as guest panelists, Actress Karla Souza (How to Get Away With Murder), Actress Karyme Lozano (Queiro Amarte), Film Director Patricia Riggen and Talent Manager Vince Lazzo sat in front in an anxious crowd to share their experiences about being Latino and working in the entertainment industry.

Panel moderator and Takehollywood Co-founder Edoardo Ponti kept the pace as he delivered thought provoking questions that allowed the panelists to answer what being Latino in the industry was like for them, sharing their inspiring stories and challenges they each faced in their careers. The savvy Wonacott social media crew shared some great sound bites from each panelist in real time for Takehollywood to make sure fans who couldn’t attend could still learn from what the panelists had to say.

Following the panel discussion fans and media alike were invited to have one-on-one interviews with the panelists to learn more about their involvement with Takehollywood and what advice they have for those looking to work in show business.
