Rising Stars: Jamie Hall and Pete

Jamie Hall

How does a guy get a hot date with 21st century technology?

Filmmaker, actor, and comedian Jamie Hall partnered with Pete the Wonder Dog to come up with the perfect plan. The result is an enjoyable, fun video about the power of Twitter.

Spreety recently took Pete the Wonder Dog and Jamie out to lunch, at a park, to learn more about these rising stars.

Due to a birth defect, Pete was a pure bred reject. Unfit for competition, Pete’s future changed when Jamie came along. Through luck or a twist of fate, Jamie took heart in the underdog, and the two have made films ever since.

As for Jamie, his uncle was the original Predator, Kevin Peter Hall, and his father played professional basketball. In 2007, Jamie was honored with an Emmy Nomination in the category of Outstanding Cinematography For Reality Programming for his work on the A&E reality-documentary series “Intervention.”

Jamie is also an experienced On-Camera Host, having hosted the Los Angeles Film Festival highlight series “FesTV.” Jamie’s zany comedic antics have been featured on BET’s “Hell Date”, Comedy Central’s “The Chocolate News” as well as ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live. Jamie also hosts the LIVE Improvised Music and Comedy Show known as BLOUZEFEST…in 3D!

Looking forward, Jamie predicts in the year 2020 that entertainment technology will advance to the point of dynamic substitution for in place ads. Translated, if a character is drinking a soda, the brand on the can could change to the highest bidder that day.

As for today, Jamie and Pete the Wonder Dog continue to find clever and original ways to entertain. The enjoyable Follow Me on Twitta is located at http://www.followmeontwitta.com/ .
