Sometimes it’s about being thoroughly likable and that is an asset Elise Ivy has in abundance. Being a sweetheart can be very sexy and seeing how her congenial nature is visibly inviting, we’ll be hooked on her in no time. After outstanding performances in “Please Give” and the upcoming indie drama “Take Care”, Elise should already be talked up as a potential star. In “Take Care”, she’s Kaylie a woman with a trouble past who enters the seemingly comfortable life of a young couple which leads to reflective self-discovery. Elise puts such natural depth into the role, viewers will be glued to her current and future onscreen appearances.


Jenni Melear in “Dead Dad”

We don’t need any goading when it comes to carrying a torch for Jenni Melear who comes across as an attractive charmer. She may not yet have an extensive filmography but already Jenni is a fascinating watch in the dramedy “Dead Dad”. Excellent as Jane, one third of the Sawtelle siblings who are thrown into dealing with the passing of their father. Some media have commented on how great the acting was in this family drama of sorts with the great chemistry palpable between the 3 leads. Being a dude, everyone knows where my loyalties lie and Jenni would be the one I covet…:)


Sarah French in “Opposite Blood”

She may have reverted to Sarah French as opposed to her stage name Scarlet Salem but there’s no denying her status as one of the most enticing indie actresses today. Essaying the role of Russian assassin Lin Chow in “Opposite Blood”, she cuts her teeth in the action-packed martial arts movie and looks every bit as divine doing so. As we already know, the blonde bombshell is a prominent Scream Queen with quite the busy schedule in 2012, starring in upcoming features such as “Insectula!” and “Hallow Pointe”. And as we’re noticing, Sarah is extending herself into many genres which means a hottie visual feast.

Dance With Films never fails to unveil up and coming actresses with JENNI MELEAR being yet another apple of our eyes. She’s the leading lady of the refreshing dramedy “Dead Dad”, a must see if you’re an indie addict! Taking a new approach to the idea of a dysfunctional family, this is a tale of 3 siblings trying to find a common bond after the passing of their dad. As the confused and resentful younger sister Jane Sawtelle, JENNI credibly accomplishes every emotional tinge from initial realization to the desire of a perfect farewell for a father figure. JENNI’s perfect chemistry with her cast mates has added to the authenticity of the film, the solid acting of each one key to the essence of the story.

Head over to the the JENNI MELEAR OFFICIAL SITE and take a look at some of the stuff she’s done including dolling up for a Ford Commercial. I may have missed out on her red carpet appearance but one can make out that she’s exquisite in an angelic kind of way. In a world where word of mouth is becoming increasingly relevant, it’s great to be able to share the wonderful work of fresh faces. This could be the start of a beautiful passion for JENNI as we look forward to her new projects.
