I Am HR: Lucia Forte and Keith Flippen

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) - Two local actors hit the big screen in a major movie. We talked to Lucia Forte and Keith Flippen to see what it was like starring opposite an Academy Award nominee and then coming back to Hampton Roads. Their passion and knowledge of the industry made them this week's I Am Hampton Roads.

Lucia is working on a Barry Levinson film coming out Nov. 2 called The Bay.  It's by the same people that did Paranormal Activity.  She's also a big supporter of local filmmakers.

Keith has a film with Val Kilmer coming out in the Spring called Goat Island. He shot an episode for Revolution and some other shows. Keith is also the owner and an instructor at The Actor's Place Inc. in Virginia Beach.
