The Beginning

Hey HillyBombs (is this a good fan name by the way?)

As this blog has just started, I thought we would also start at the beginning of the Hillywood journey!

 

It started a couple of years ago when Hilly Hindi entered AOL’s “Be a Red Star” contest and was placed 3rd out of about 100,000 video entries! (See link which will open in a new window) http://richmondthenandnow.com/Retired%20Pages/hillary-hillywood.html

Although she was placed 3rd, Hilly didn't give up, and started filming her 'one woman show' which came to be 'The Hillywood Show'! The very first episode was shot in 3 days (8-10hrs per day) and was a instant hit, with 288,623 views to date!

 

Episode one introduced us to one of Hilly's best known impersonations, Captain Jack Sparrow (Pirates of the Caribbean) as well as Willy Wonka (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) Edward Scissorhands (Edward Scissorhands) and Mort Rainey from Secret Window (all characters originally played by Johnny Depp).

Although Hannah did not star in this video, as a supportive big sister, she acted as the Make-up artist and, along with Hilly, was the creator and writer.

Hope you enjoyed reading, more to come soon!
