Son of a Beach IS IN A FILM FESTIVAL!

You read the title of this article correctly, in OCTOBER, I will be flying out to "The City of Brotherly Love" to attend The Philadelphia Filmathon, where they will be screening several films, as well as Son of a Beach (The short animation where I talk about why I don't like going to the beach).

Cinematic Music Videos: Living Dead Girl/The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari

Due to situations beyond my control I have an essay for you this week instead of a video. My apologies, as I have been laid up all weekend with either a nasty little cold or the early stages of the "T-Viris". Because of this (and my 10 hour a day job) my ability to produce a video of creative or humorous merit this week has been severely hampered. As a matter of fact, this article is being dictated to my fiance who has repeatedly denied my requests to be frozen in carbonite until scientists can find a cure for the foul disease that is ravaging my body.

Guest Blog: Top 6 Rom-Coms From a Male Perspective By Kyle Anderson

I’ve never been a big fan of the romantic comedy genre so when Rob asked me to do a Top 6 about them, I was sort of at a loss. But I thought about it and there are ones I like, but the ones I find more interesting are when they’re from the male lead’s perspective. They’re often just a silly or dumb as the usual, female-centric rom-coms, but since I am of the emo male persuasion when it comes to love, I connect to them. So here we have the top 6 romantic comedies told from the guy’s point of view.

What? Who? Admin!?

I mean, walking on the ceiling? Crazy stuff.Hi Kids! Just a quick note if you're having trouble logging into the site: I never learned to read. Thus my difficulty in reading the fine print when performing site upgrades.

At any rate, the problem should be licked now. I think. If you're still having trouble logging in, the problem is with your session cookies. Those damn dirty cookies. Try clearing em.

Cinematic Music Videos: Rush, Rush/Rebel Without a Cause

   Long before Paula Abdul was "Nice Judge" on the television blight that is American Idol, she was a singer and choreographer. And long before Keanu Reeves starred in the Matrix, he performed the part of analog James Dean in this video.

Howdy,

I don't normally do update blogs, since I get the impression that most of of you who visit the site are interested in seeing videos and animations and not in my blog writing skills (That's why I leave it to professionals like Kyle Anderson). However, I wanted to let you all know what I've been up to this past week (Since it's interesting and actually has bearing on filmmaking)

Cinematic Music Videos: California Love/Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome

2Pac, Dr. Dre-California Love/Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome 

2Pac's California Love is a staple of mid 90's gangster rap. This was a decade when rap changed forms and leaned toward a harsher, grittier style. The lyrics became more violent and sexualized, much to the chagrin of Media watchdog groups and concerned parents everywhere. Rap moved from the urban outskirts of the music industry to the "safe haven" of suburbia. Once relegated to the 2 hour Yo! MTV Raps program, this musical genre has now found a permanent home in every facet of modern media.
