We welcomed the Music Video Race to San Francisco last month as they kicked off their event series. They chose the City By The Bay for reasons obvious to those of us who love the music and the film scene here. Competitors were challenged to make a music video in just 48 hours. (sound familiar?) […]

ArtShots: An Invitation to Listen
The hope held by the creators of ArtShots was that filmmakers would find inspiration in their arts partners, and that audiences would be inspired by the collaboration between filmmaker and performer. We have a feeling that audiences will discover that hope having been met by this clip created by Teresa Widdowson and singer/songwriter duo Bev […]
It’s Gettin’ Real … Where?!
When you look in the coolerator and see that you’re out of quinoa and mango salsa — there’s only one thing to do. Get yourself to the Whole Foods parking lot! There’s nothing we can add to this. Genius sometimes shows up equipped with its own shopping bags.
Beneath the Surface
We mostly focus on short film here, but occasionally we are compelled to share work from a different genre. The independent filmmakers who created this music video demonstrate that they are quite serious about their craft. The look and feel of San Francisco are on full display here in this tasty music video. Hopefully it […]
Absolutely no way
We have said it before. There is no way to predict the workings of love. We dare you to watch this at the best resolution you can stand, and then look to see where your heart ends up. Send us a nice postcard from there! Don’t forget that card, okay?
Can’t Get Enough Motown
We loved this performance of an old Motown standard. Girls, whatever your species, you MUST be able to get all the way through this one, just as a guitarist must learn Johnny B Goode. See what you think of this alien girl’s rendition We thought you might like that.
Underneath the Music
We love to find those films online that include action, suspense, great music, and ultimately inspiration. We’re not saying that THIS film does that, but we thought you might like it. Actually, we ARE saying that. Look and see for yourself. The star of this production does this work in real life and has empowered […]
Just Once in an Eva Moon
Some things are rare, and some things are rare and equally beautiful. Meet Eva Moon and see if you don’t agree with us that she’s definitely both. [blip.tv http://blip.tv/play/hYsRgeLBRQI%5D Keep an eye out for this talented lady because we’re certain she’ll be up to good mischief again soon. Kudos to Ideajuice Studios for a delightfully […]
Virtually Thrilling
We went looking for some examples of Machinima music videos. We never expected to find this gem. The musician, Hazideon Zarco, has been playing in Second Life for a long time. We found the music to be engaging, and we really like the work of machinimatographer, Flimsey Freenote. This was good stuff and we hope […]
A Magical World (or: A Real Truly Live Place)
This weekend, the 48 Hour Film Project will take place in a city that spans distance and time — the town of Machinima. Competitors will begin Friday night with instructions about elements that must appear in their film, and then using tools built for video games, virtual reality environments, and other mainstays of the Machinima […]
