About Me
Arlene Martinez (aka La Colora) is one of the leading influencers in the Latin music space. Her insightful understanding of Latin urban music industry, consumer taste and the evolution of the genre have made her a respected voice in that music field. Not surprisingly, she is on first name basis and holds social media conversations with the leading figures of reggaeton. During her stay in Los Angeles, she witnessed the evolution of the genre and covered Calibash from its inception to the last edition, now the leading urban music concert in that city. Living in Los Angeles allowed her to expand into other entertainment fields but music has always been her passion. Now residing in Colorado, her voice continues to be a bicoastal force with national presence. Being a mother of millennial children and a military spouse, she is uniquely experienced and has had relationships with various brands and companies.

About Forgotten Island
From the studio behind How to Train Your Dragon, Shrek, and The Wild Robot, Forgotten Island introduces a powerful tale of two lifelong best friends who must fight to stay connected before their memories slip away forever.
Written and directed by Academy Award® nominees Joel Crawford and Januel Mercado, and produced by Academy Award® nominee Mark Swift, the filmmaking team behind Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, this original animated adventure blends heart, humor, and cultural mythology in a way only DreamWorks can deliver.

A Story of Friendship, Magic & Filipino Mythology
Best friends Jo and Raissa, voiced by Grammy and Academy Award® winner H.E.R. and Liza Soberano (Lisa Frankenstein, Alone/Together), are celebrating their final night together before heading off on separate life paths. But everything changes when they stumble upon a mysterious portal that transports them to Nakali, a vibrant island filled with magical creatures from Filipino folklore.
Some creatures become allies. Others become threats.
Joined by the lovable but chaotic weredog Raww (Dave Franco) and a fearless group of new friends, Jo and Raissa must confront the island’s most terrifying figure—The Dreaded Manananggal, voiced by Tony Award®–winning icon Lea Salonga.
When the girls learn that the price of returning home is losing every memory of their friendship, they race against time to escape Nakali before they forget each other forever.
