Not familiar with those names. Are they managers or agents?

They are both producers, though Kent directed "Semi-Pro".

Here's some info on them....

Kent Alterman and Michael Aguilar have formed Dos Tontos, a production company that kicks off with a two-year exclusive deal at Fox. The duo will generate films for 20th Century Fox co-presidents Alex Young and Emma Watts, and Fox Atomic chief Debbie Liebling. They start with “Cool School,” which Aguilar had already been producing at 20th, about a group of ad execs who are mentored by high schoolers so the execs can be on the pulse of youth culture. Deal is the second recent pact designed to boost Fox’s laffer output, after Ben Stiller’s Red Hour joined the fold earlier this month.

Personally speaking, I'd concentrate on managers before anyone else. a) they will help you develop your work so it's up to the level it needs to be and b) first thing a manager will ask is "where has this been?" If it's been to a bunch of producers already, the manager's love for your product is going to go down a great deal right then and there. Nothing to lose by starting with managers, and if everyone passes, then you can always go on to the next list. Might as well just wait and see how that plays out first, would be my advice.

Did anyone find out anything more about these guys and Dos Tontos?

I came across their names while looking into a new production that NBC supposedly will be filming in Napa Valley called "Vines" about ghostly vines or haunted wineries or something like that. I have a lot of connection in Napa Valley and in the wine business, so I'm trying to get some work on the project.
