Welcome to “Italian American Lifestyles” Magazine - my dear friend of over a decade Alex Corrado invited me to his house where he was hosting his brother Roger's birthday party featuring multiple kinds of seafood salad to select from. I guess it's best to have Alex's brother Roger Corrado, the RC of the RC Invitational at ClubCorradoNJ.com explain. Here is a transcription of Roger speaking excerpted from the video I shot that day:

VOICE OF ROGER CORRADO: Thanks to everybody for coming, thanks to our celebrity judges, our celebrities in the house: Danny Aiello is here, we have Federico in the corner (applause), our Soprano, thanks I appreciate everybody showing up, and now we are going to get down to what everybody wants to know. Personally - and I say this every year - I thought everything was delicious, I mean... but I judge by my size...I can say everything was good. We'll get right down to the People's Champ. The People's Champ was judged by... we have our celebrity judges which do the cup trophy in the championship, our People's Champ was judged by everybody else so, in my opinion that's probably just as important. But our People's Champ was actually a tie and I didn't want to distinguish or flip a coin, so I like to just give it to the 2 people who tied and number one is my mother Vicki Corrado (applause) and number 2 was aunt Frances Sarnella (applause). Thank you, number one and number nine. Congratulations to our People's Champ (applause).

And now we are moving to our judges champs. I'd like to thank Stephen Lewandowski from Tribeca Grill who was our judge champ in our top judges. And we have the pleasure to have him in 2 years in arow for helping in us to solve this out. And his is an opinion that we can honestly trust. If you have never been the Tribeca Grill or City Field or now at Giant Stadium where we all are going to visit Stephen. And we appreciate his judgment and his food. So now Stephen if you can grab the cup over there. We have a cup, Stephen will present the cup to our winner and our champ. Our judge's champ in third place was number 9 Frances Sarnella, 3rd place (applause) . But I have to tell you aunt Frances you actually finish second, because for the first time we have 2 winners who tied, but I'm not gonna go about take it away from either one of them. We have 2 co-champions this year. I'm gonna get ready, because people might throw stuff at me. We have a Soprano in the house I want to remind everybody (laughs). The winners were: my mother Victoria Corrado, number one (applause) and believe it or not and my brother Alexander Corrado (applause). Thank you all, and enjoy the food!

How To Make A Video Press Release For Your Business To Get
Media Attention Including Newspapers, Magazines And Newscasts
By Becoming An Associate Producer On An Italian American Mystery

blank This is the story of how Italian American actor and entrepreneur Alex Corrado - is using the VFW (Video Film Web) System to promote his pride in his heritage as well as his career and projects. Plus details on how you can get involved in the movie industry with great publicity and advertising benefits to your career and business

You may know Alex whose web site is www.alexcorrado.com from "Hannibal" appearing alongside Sir Anthony Hopkins. Or, at the time of this writing, Alex has just been featured in "Get Low" with Robert Duval. Alex has also starred in reality shows including as the maitre di of ABC's "The Restaurant".

When Alex recently decided to do a reality show of his own called "Club Corrado NJ" he enlisted the help of his long time friend and collaborator Yianni Stamas of the video production, web design and search engine optimization company since 2001 - Video, Film & Web Services, Inc. (at www.VideoFilmWeb.com)

The first thing the VFW team did for Alex was to produce a 10 minute television pilot for a reality program entitled "ClubCorradoNJ.com" that showcases Alex in the basement of his Rutherford New Jersey home where he has a full bar and neon sign which reads "Club Corrado".

The premise of the show is that Alex - who studied with the great chefs of Italy - will solve your "Wish with a dish". Wishes range from fixing your love relationships to solving your mysteries, while dishes constitute whatever Neapolitan concoctions are necessary to get to the heart of the matter through the stomach. The Native Americans had their Medicine Men while Alex is your "Mangia Man".

Now that the pilot has been completed, Alex is currrently shopping it around and is getting feedback from venues and individuals including MTV, the Food Channel, Al Roker's production company and the producers of "Cake Boss".The response from all who see the pilot is very enthusiastic and positive. As Alex's brother Roger Corrado recently put it while appearing in a seafood salad episode of "Club Corrado NJ" -

"Alex is not only a character actor, he's a character."

Thus far Alex has received interest from all who have seen the pilot, but in most cases there is an implied wish of tinkering with the concept. Alex being the true artist and entertainer that he is, wants to bring "Club Corrado NJ" to the people in an undilluted form. So now in a gutsy move, this Italian American powerhouse is harnassing the power of internet marketing and technology by making the TV Pilot into a movie and taking on associate producer movie sponsors who receive internet marketing benefits for their careers and businesses.

TV Pilot To Movie To Maintain Artistic & Entertainment Integrity

Packed with artistic entertainment value this "Italian American Mystery" movie is a real crowd pleaser. It's called "Reality Thriller: The Case Of The Biblioteca Bulldog" and is the story of a guy who does a TV show in his basement in Rutherford NJ entitled "Club Corrado NJ" who gets blankdrawn into a chill-arious search for a missing prized pooch. The plot is fun for the whole family and takes the viewer on a documystery thrill ride through an Italian American world of madness, mayhem and magic. To see an outline of the story go to www.clubcorradonj.com where there is also information on how Alex is helping the community by being a judge on the Lights, Camera, Read contest for the New York Public Library which is also a part of the movie's reality show storyline. See Alex featured in "Manhattan Kids Guide" magazine here www.ManhattanKidsGuide.com/judges

In short, Alex desires to maintan the artistic integrity and entertainment value of his original "Club Corrado NJ" TV Pilot by expanding the concept into a feature film released as 27 webisodes, each 3 minutes long and then putting the full length motion picture - approximately 90 minutes in total - on Blockbuster Online, Netflix and other venues. The story will creatively integrate in a non "sales pitch" way the products, services and even staff members and locations of the sponsors involved.

The sponsor's business will be visible in the movie in at least 3 scenes or webisodes. And the most impactful publicity and advertising benefits for the sponsor comes in the form of six months of discounted internet marketing coverage. Video, Film & Web Services, Inc. - in support of Alex Corrado's artistic vision - will be providing all associate producer movie sponsors with six months of internet marketing coverage.

Alex Corrado and Yianni Stamas are currently discussing putting together a high fashion movie trailer that will highlight the sponsors who are involved in the motion picture web series and will integrate footage from the seafood salad episode of "Club Corrado NJ" that chronicles the birthday party of Alex's brother Roger. Cameo appearances include actor Danny Aiello, Tribeca Grill's Executive Chef Stephen Lewandowski and Federico Castelluccio who played Furio Giunta on "The Sopranos". To see photos made from video of the event visit www.italianamericanlifestyles.com/gallery.html.

There are still a few sponsor spots left. To see if your products, services, career and business qualifies for inclusion as a partner in the venture, please contact Alex or Yianni directly. Please realize that only a limited amount of sponsors can be brought into this undertaking and are being selected with the utmost care.
