LATP Host Jeff Gaskin sat down with filmmaker Christopher Coppola of the famed Coppola family and brother of Nicholas Cage, to find out about his new show on the Reelz Channel, The DigiVangelist, where Christopher travels coast to coast, seeking out the latest innovations in creative technology. New Media Technology may be cool and addictive, but the DigiVangelist wants to explore the gadgets, gizmos and concepts that keep the heart and soul of human endeavor intact, says Coppola. Christopher travels to different places across the nation exploring how different emerging gadgets and gizmos affect the ever-changing direction of Hollywood filmmaking; how ordinary people can use everyday technology, as simple as a cell phone, to create an innovative project.
“The entertainment industry is at a crossroads. Some have predicted the future only holds digital disaster, mainly because they fear the unknown. I believe the digital arena will not only help mainstream Hollywood reinvent itself, but offer new opportunities to the independent filmmaker. Christopher R. Coppola Productions is firmly committed to help us all blaze a trail to a new digital renaissance”.

On-location around the country, the DigiVangelist and his reality show team are always on the road, connecting Hollywood technology to Main Street and seeing how it’s playing a role in all our lives. Christopher will go anywhere and meet anyone to find what he’s after and share it with the audience; he will interview experts, experience the technology himself, and take it to a new level by sharing it with everyday folks. Through the DigiVangelist’s adventures, the audience is tapping into a digital movement that is unfolding right before our eyes.
DigiVangelist with Christopher Coppela can be seen on the Reelz Channel on Saturdays 12:30pm ET/ 9:30pm PT, and Sundays 6:00pm ET/3:00 pm PT
