The Final Four Announced!
Hello
Just wanted to give you the heads up and to say thank you for your support so far…
Basically, we made it into the final four of the Highway Apprentice competition and attended our first workshop tonight, we can’t tell you very much more about the event until after all of the workshops have been completed in two weeks time but we will definitely keep you updated as much as possible.
Here is a snippet from an article published on the Glam Adelaide website:
“Loc Tran and Deanna Ortuso – who plan to promote Adelaide to Ellen DeGeneres and the entire world by hosting an interactive mock Ellen talk show with special guests, music and talent, showcasing the best of Adelaide to an audience of Ellen look-a-likes and holding the biggest choreographed Ellen dance. The ultimate aim is to get the attention of Ellen DeGeneres and encourage her to visit Adelaide!”

We’re shooting our first promo video this Saturday the 5th of June and we need your help!
Basically we just want to shoot several minutes of footage where there is a lot of people having fun in a bar / nightclub environment.
Sooo, if you’re interested, please come to the Highway Hotel (290 Anzac Highway PLYMPTON SA 5038) at 4pm on Saturday the 5th of June 2010. We will only have one hour in total to shoot all of the necessary scenes, so make sure that you get there on time, dress your best and also, it wouldn’t hurt if you’re able to dance like Ellen DeGeneres ;-p
