  • Activist/Artist/Rapper Cameron Sean
    Cameron Sean Ganis was born in New York on December 15, 1993, to John and Catalina Ganis at only three pounds. He has always been a fighter showing his relentlessness, passion, and a reason to keep going fourth towards his dream. He grew up in a bi-racial household along with two brothers. His father played the guitar since he was sixteen, and at the age of sixteen Cameron picked up a pen and pad and started creating his own sound. Today his biggest influencers are Drake, Lil Wayne, China Mac, Machine Gun Kelly, Joyner Lucas, Russ, Eminem, Chris Brown, and Justin Bieber to name a few. This up-and-coming vocalist, songwriter and rap artist had some major obstacles in his life. Both of his parents had a kidney transplant a few years ago, which took a toll on him, but because of his perseverance and love for music, he was able to overcome these obstacles. Cameron feels that he gets his drive from his mom, being that she overcame a few obstacles of her own. This thriving young artist also knew about the importance of getting an education, so he enrolled in the State University of New York at Fredonia near Canada. When his parents fell sick, he needed to be closer to home, so he enrolled at the University of Central Florida, the largest college in the United States earning a full scholarship.

  • Extra Connections wth Actor Martin Harris!
    Actor Martin Harris has a supporting role in writer/director David O. Russell’s star-studded 1930s murder mystery, Amsterdam from Fox starring Christian Bale, Margot Robbie, John David Washington, Anya Taylor-Joy, Chris Rock, Timothy Olyphant and Robert DeNiro among other opening in theaters everywhere October 7.
    He also recently portrayed a Czech police officer in Netflix’s edgy international thriller, The Gray Man; he co-starred opposite Colin Firth in The Staircase biographical crime series; he played a German bartender opposite Tony Dalton in the final season of Better Call Saul; and he’s one of actor David Harbour’s fellow prisoners in a Soviet gulag in the latest season of the acclaimed science fiction series Stranger Things. 
         A native of Wroclaw, Poland, Martin started his career as an international sportswriter, broadcaster and author, with a specialty in NBA basketball. Not only did he write a best-selling book about the Los Angeles Lakers, but he credits the late Kobe Bryant for giving him the salient advice to follow his dreams and become an actor. 
         Prior to Bryant’s advice, Martin got a quick dose of film history when he became fascinated with a DVD set of the twenty-five best movies of all time. That combined with a passion for James Bond movies and the cinema of Robert De Niro led him to become an actor in Hollywood.
         After studying intensely at the Stella Adler Theater and the Beverly Hills Playhouse, Martin began to land gradually larger roles in major television and film productions. These included the part of Lt. Nikolai Zybulski, a primary adversary in TNT’s The Last Ship post-apocalyptic series; a Croatian agent in the controversial feature The Hunt; and a prison tower sharpshooter in Red Notice.
         When he isn’t working in film and television, Martin loves rock music (he once headlined a heavy metal band called Army of Darkness back in Poland), and he also does significant voice work for computer and video games - one of those voices is fan-favorite “Krueger,” the beloved character on Call of Duty.
