    LOS ANGELES --

    Bicoastal Station Film has hired executive producer Leticia Gurjão, who will be based in the Los Angeles office. She brings an expertise in business development, production and sales, previously as director of business development at The Cavalry and Green Dot Films, where she worked for five years. At Cavalry she had a hand in helping to launch VR/AR company Spectacle.

    “Station is my kind of production company: Fast-forward thinking,” Gurjão said. “They push boundaries creatively across multiple disciplines—digital, branded content and VR/AR—going beyond traditional broadcast commercials with an understanding that the story always comes first.”

    “Leticia’s background in sales and marketing, brand development and production is a perfect fit for Station,” commented Stephen Orent, managing partner of Station Film. “Her understanding and experience with digital content, VR/AR and management strategy is already making an impression her first week here at Station.”

    A native of Brazil, Gurjão studied Advertising at MacKenzie University in São Paulo. She immediately went on to producing films and worked at several media companies, including Zeppelin Films. She relocated to Los Angeles in 2008 and earned a Film Industry Business certificate from UCLA. Her experience also includes collaborations with ad agencies such as TBWA/Chiat/Day, 72andSunny, RPA, Leo Burnett, DDB, AlmapBBDO, Saatchi&Saatchi, Y&R, Publicis and O&M.

    A Closer Look At Proposed Measures Designed To Curb Google’s Search Monopoly

    U.S. regulators are proposing aggressive measures to restore competition to the online search market after a federal judge ruled Google maintained an illegal monopoly for the last decade.

    The sweeping set of recommendations filed late Wednesday by the U.S. Department of Justice could radically alter Google's business, including possibly spinning off the Chrome web browser and syndicating its search data to competitors. Even if the courts adopt the blueprint, Google isn't likely to make any significant changes until 2026 at the earliest, because of the legal system's slow-moving wheels.

    Here's what it all means:

    What is the Justice Department's goal?
    Federal prosecutors are cracking down on Google in a case originally filed during near the end of then-President Donald Trump's first term. Officials say the main goal of these proposals is to get Google to stop leveraging its dominant search engine to illegally squelch competition and stifle innovation.

    "The playing field is not level because of Google's conduct, and Google's quality reflects the ill-gotten gains of an advantage illegally acquired," the Justice Department asserted in its recommendations. "The remedy must close this gap and deprive Google of these advantages."

    Not surprisingly, Google sees things much differently. The Justice Department's "wildly overbroad proposal goes miles beyond the Court's decision," Kent Walker, Google's chief legal officer, asserted in a blog post. "It would break a range of Google products — even beyond search — that people love and find helpful in their everyday lives."

    It's still possible that the Justice Department could ease off on its attempts to break up Google, especially if President-elect Donald Trump... Read More
