Jeff Sanders: Filmmaker On
The Rise 
Jeff Sanders recently consulted with
Richard P. Dieguez regarding Three Divas,
a movie script he co-wrote with Leon Hunter. Sanders
and Hunt are filming a trailer for the movie, which features
three heroines -- two African American and one Hispanic -- in
action roles reminiscent of Charlie's Angels. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Anticipating the creation of a
new market for these "nontraditional" leading ladies,
Sanders has already created a prototype action figure ready for
licensing to toy manufacturers. |
|
|
|
|
|
The film is a natural development
for Sanders who has prior experience as an actor with appearances
in New York Undercover, Law and Order and music
videos produced by Sean Combs and Jamie Foxx. |
|
|
|
|
|
Legal Experience
in Film and Television |
|
|
|
|
|
 For
Dieguez, representing Sanders brings
in his film and television legal experience.
Dieguez represented the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce
(Washington D.C.) in a critical meeting with Dennis Swanson,
president and general manager of NBC's flagship station
in New York. That meeting resulted in a deal for the
creation of a new program, Hispanic Business Today. |
|
|
|
|
|
Dieguez also represented R&B
Films in a deal with ABC/Capital Cities for a Saturday
morning show called Children's Discovery Series, successfully
wrote and pitched a sitcom to Quincy Jones called Hell's
Kitchen casting Lisa Lisa in the lead, and did soundtrack
licensing work for clients involved with New Jersey Drive
(Spike Lee), Clockers (Spike Lee), Smoke (starring
William Hurt), Faithful (starring Cher and Ryan O'Neal)
and many other Hollywood films. |
|
|
|
|
|
In addition to the trailer, Sanders
is in the process of developing a website for his project. In
the meantime, investors and other interested parties can obtain
more information directly from Sanders at (631) 842-6018 |
