Yolo YoYo's award winning episode 'The Stage; Following our Wildest Dreams'

Chris Hennessy produced and directed Yolo YoYo’s Cable TV show season 2 finale episode, The Stage,’ Following our Wildest Dreams! ' (10 minutes), which won 'Best Narrative Episode 2022 West Coast’ at the 2022 ACM Western Region Wave Awards. The program features the Super-Positive Super-Hero, Yolo YoYo’s (his daughter Hannah and friends), and their mission to bring live entertainment back to the lonely, historic stage, which hadn't been performed upon for a very long time. The evil Stage Troll has done a fine job keeping everyone and everything off the stage. (played by Woodland Opera House star Collin Robinson-Burmester - Elly award winner and Woodland Opera House Most Outstanding Youth Performer 2020) Amelia Robinson-Burmester, another WOH star (nominated for Elly and Chesley Award winner for WOH’s Chitty-Chitty Bang Bang, 2019), plays the beautiful Stage Fairy. She believes only the Super-Positive Super-Hero Yolo YoYo’s possesses the potent powers and uplifting ability to bring entertainment back to The Stage. “We had to take a stance. For without dance & romance, humankind doesn’t stand a chance.” Aired July 1, 2021 produced, written, directed, and edited by Chris Hennessy Yolo Yolo's - An award-winning Reality TV Show "Hannah & Friends fun & uplifting adventures through Yolo County & Beyond.” Season #2 - Feb 2021 through June 2021 Davis TV Channel 15 (DCTV-15) Sacramento Channel 18 FaceBook fb.me/yoloyoyos Youtube - Yolo Yoyos - see all episodes, Season #1 & #2 Copyright © 2021 Chris Hennessy/Yolo Yoyo’s Produced by Chris Hennessy Filmmaker - Author - Speaker 408-568-9330 chrishennessyfilms@gmail.com https://www.henchris.com https://hennschtick.substack.com Touched by Hannah - Chris Hennessy’s upcoming Memoir Book see https://www.henchris.com and fb.me/touchedbyhannah

Yuba Twenty-Twenty, and Award-Winning Music Video starring Hannah, Heather & Chris Hennessy

Chris Hennessy produced this award-winning music video, 'Yuba Twenty-Twenty,’ with daughters Hannah and Heather Hennessy. Hennessy, creator of the award-winning TV show, 'Yolo YoYo's' entered the film into the 2021 Yuba-Sutter Film Festival and took 1st (first) place, Best Film! By July 2020, the pandemic, riots, politics, and the hate and disgust on social media all had me feeling down low in the dumps. One night, I was listening to my headphones when a song caught my attention. (Black Gold, Soul Asylum) I listened to that inspiring tune repeatedly for hours every night that week. At the same time, I’d randomly discovered Steele House Coffee, Yuba City, CA. One could sit inside this independently owned joint without a mask - with great ambiance, plenty of seating, air-conditioning, fine coffee, and good folks. I was heading that way about once a week from my home in Woodland to have coffee and write for my upcoming memoir book, Touched by Hannah. I subsequently fell in love with the 45-minute drive through infinity farms and orchards, surrounded by their scenery of brilliant mid-summer greenery. Feeling that I was away from the tumultuous times brought me much joy and comfort. I became motivated to create an uplifting music video honoring that incredible song and my once-a-week getaway. I delightfully put my heart, soul, and a couple hundred hours of intense, from-the-heart work into my 5-minute music video, ‘Yuba Twenty-Twenty.’ The only side-effect I experienced during the project was an energetic natural high that lasted through the entire month of production.

An Ad Lib Gig with Chris Hennessy

Hilarious bits from Chris Hennessy’s catalog of 25,000 random on-camera street-style interviews. Hennessy approaches a table of women at a downtown Sacramento restaurant, announces, “I am the hired male stripper.” and performs a short, hilarious striptease, kinda. He then takes the stage by storm, unplanned and uninvited, in front of 500 Wicked Tinkers fans and whips them into a frenzy--interviews and spoofs an Apollo 13 astronaut, and finally proposes to and runs off with the Queen of Scotland. “We typically have no idea what we are getting ourselves into when we begin filming improv-style. Creating films and telling stories in such a challenging scenario is something I’ve enjoyed very much since I first started making films in the late 1980s. “That ballsy guy pumped up the crowd and boosted the energy level several notches. I wish we had him at every gig.” - Aaron Shaw, Wicked Tinkers Yolo Yolo's - An award-winning Reality TV Show "Hannah & Friends fun & uplifting adventures through Yolo County & Beyond.” Davis TV Channel 15 (DCTV-15) Sacramento Channel 18 FaceBook fb.me/yoloyoyos Youtube - yolo yoyos - see all episodes, Season #1 & #2 Copyright © 2021 Chris Hennessy/Yolo Yoyo’s Produced by Chris Hennessy Filmmaker - Author - Speaker 408-568-9330 chrishennessyfilms@gmail.com https://www.henchris.com https://hennschtick.substack.com Touched by Hannah - Chris Hennessy’s upcoming Memoir Book read an excerpt/see below fb.me/touchedbyhannah
