Tiffany Shlain Melds Collaboration & Cloudsourcing Into Cloud Filmmaking [Video]
Posted in: Today's Chili
There’s a myriad number of techie memes that have entered our zeitgeist
derived from a term we use to simply call "collaboration." Pre-Internet,
dating back to the idiom or trope of "Hey, Lets Put On A Show,"
Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney were the first in movies to introduce a
plot line signaling the need for collaboration. Today, instead of
orphans trying to raise money to turn a barn into a stage, filmmakers
are looking to the clouds not only for funding but also inspiration.

If you have a dark secret that you desperately need to hide from loved ones, peers, friends, pretty much anyone really, the Big Daddy Driver may be just what you’re looking for. Although frankly if you’re in that deep I don’t see much hope. Anyway, give it a shot. What’s to lose? Doesn’t sound like things could get much worse, does it.

If you’re looking to be more productive while lying down, a new pair of Prizm Glasses may be the answer. But they’re not for everyone. You’ll need imagination and a stiff neck if you’re to avoid the fate of Martin Warburton, who hasn’t been upright since he first put them on.

Just when you thought you couldn’t get enough of zombies combing the
post-apocalyptic landscape, in walks another herd titling the genre
either backwards or forward, dependent on your point of view. So much
so, that your next popcorn outing might just include walking dead

’30 Rock’ Reinvented Situation Comedy, While Biting The Hand That Feeds [Videos]
Posted in: Today's Chili
Tina Fey’s 30 Rock was a surreal sitcom that turned the genre on
its head. High and low-brow comedy are treated as equals where
punch-drunk punchlines often sail over the heads of even the most
die-hard Feysians! To reinvent the 30-minute format, Fey also stole a
page out of David Letterman’s playbook – that is, disparaging jabs at
its own TV network.

government surveillance. Today, the TV Show ‘Person of Interest’
introduces a similar theme by replacing Orwell’s ‘Big Brother’ with ‘The
Machine.‘ Is a world of paranoia within our midst?
