Watch interviews with film directors, cinematographers, film students, producers, colorists, artists, technologists, scientists, engineers, and editors, like Steven Soderbergh, Martin Scorsese, George Lucas, David Fincher, James Cameron, Danny Boyle, David Lynch, and Lars Von Trier, as they discuss the digital invasion in movie making over the last 20 or so years as “technology pushes the art, and the art pushes technology.”

Many film enthusiasts may recall that the recent Academy Award winning film, “Slumdog Millionaire,” was shot almost entirely digitally, reminding us that this “alternative” to the photochemical process, which had been the norm for the past 100 years, was now sharing the stage with, if not taking a backseat all together, to the digital revolution.

Go “Side by Side,” and behind the camera of your favorite films as “Point Break” actor, Keanu Reeves, interviews film legends,  about their opinions and experiences collaborating with film and digital. Is there room for both?  Can the two get along?  Is film facing extinction?  Can you guess which film maker feels passionately for which medium?

People can say all they want to about Mayor Bloomberg, but he has done so much for NYC.  He has used so much of his own money to fund programs, and has always been on the scene for so many of the unexpected mishaps.  Now, he has OPENED FIVE NEW SOUNDSTAGES AT STEINER STUDIOS  AND STARTED NEW PROGRAMS TO HELP NEW YORKERS GET JOBS IN THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY!!!   

$500,000 in Training Grants, Expanded Mini-MBA Programs, and New “Made in NY” Media Center, will help Support and Grow the Industry in New York City!!!

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, and Media & Entertainment Commissioner, Katherine Oliver, today joined Steiner Studios Chairman Douglas C. Steiner, to open five new soundstages at Steiner Studios in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The new stages, totaling 45,000 square feet, will provide new and expanded opportunities for New Yorkers who work in the film, television and commercial production industry. The Mayor also launched initiatives designed to support and grow the industry, including new grants for training programs that prepare New Yorkers for careers in production and digital fields; a new entertainment component to the City’s mini-MBA partnership with NYU’s Stern School of Business; and a request for proposals for a “Made in NY” Media Center, which would provide media companies with affordable work space and other services. Mayor Bloomberg and Commissioner Oliver were joined at Steiner Studios by Boardwalk Empire actress Gretchen Mol and the show’s writers; Council Speaker Christine C. Quinn; Seth Pinsky, President of the Economic Development Corporation; Robert W. Walsh, Commissioner of the Department of Small Business Services; Alan Fishman, Chairman of the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation; and Council Member Domenic M. Recchia, Jr.

“A little over a decade ago, New York City struggled to attract the lucrative production industry to film here,” said Mayor Bloomberg. “Now the City is such a popular and prosperous home to hundreds of films and television shows, we have to work hard to keep up with the demand for stages and production facilities. These new soundstages at Steiner Studios will create jobs, and expanding our workforce development programs with new grants will help the next generation of production professionals start their careers on the right track.”

“More production in the City translates directly to more New Yorkers working at well-paid jobs behind the scenes and more money spent in the local economy,” said Commissioner Oliver. “Doug Steiner and his team understand that, and they’ve been committed to expanding Steiner Studios into what it is today – a hallmark of the City’s production industry. This expansion helps lead the way for new employment opportunities in this thriving sector, and having a diverse well-trained workforce is an important goal for New York City.”

“The opening of five new soundstages in the Brooklyn Navy Yard is a tremendous statement of long-term confidence in New York’s film and television industry by Steiner Studios,” Deputy Mayor for Economic Development Robert K. Steel said. “This investment will bring more jobs to the Brooklyn Navy Yard and to the thousands of related businesses around the City that support the film and television sector.”

“The business of film, television and commercials wants to be in New York City,” said Steiner. “We have the greatest crews in the world, and now we have the facilities to match. Old media is here, new media is coming. This is manufacturing for the 21^st century, and it is a business that New York does exceedingly well. It’s our mission at Steiner Studios to continue building the infrastructure and creative environment necessary for content creation to grow exponentially in New York.”

“What better way to help those in the film and TV industry remain in one of the most iconic and diverse places in the world than to help train and give more opportunities to produce some of the best shows around,” said Speaker Quinn. “These new soundstages will attract the best of the best in entertainment which will help our city’s economy. I want to thank the administration and my colleagues for continuing to help New Yorkers in these tough economic times.”

“Steiner Studios has not only played a major role in revitalizing the Navy Yard since its opening in 2004, but has created jobs, hosted events such as the Gotham Awards and my State of the Borough Address, and has brought Brooklyn’s ‘big stage’ to big and small screens around the world—from Spiderman 3 and Sex and the City to the television series Damages and Boardwalk Empire,” said Borough President Marty Markowitz. “In addition to the extraordinary vision of David and Doug Steiner, the success of Steiner Studios—including the addition of these five new stages and a working studio graduate program for Brooklyn College film students—as well as record-setting film and television production citywide is due in no small part to the leadership of Mayor Bloomberg and Commissioner Katherine Oliver. Forget La-La Land—Steiner Studios and Brooklyn are ‘Hollywood East.’”

“We are pleased to be working with the Mayor’s Office of Media & Entertainment to expand our proven programs to the media and entertainment industry – helping businesses train their workforce, helping entrepreneurs grow, and also providing the free set of services available through NYC Business Solutions,” said Small Business Services Commissioner Walsh. “Supporting entrepreneurs and training employees in media and entertainment will help create jobs for New Yorkers, and keep this already growing industry strong in NYC.”

“The entertainment and media industries play a major role in the City’s economy, creating hundreds of thousands of jobs and contributing to the ‘buzz’ that makes New York the global magnet that it is,” said Economic Development Corporation President Pinsky. “The ‘Made in NY’ Media Center is a key investment in the future of these sectors, encouraging innovation, supporting content creation, fostering collaboration, and promoting workforce development.”

“The Brooklyn Navy Yard is thrilled to continue to see its partnership with Steiner Studios bear fruit,” said Andrew Kimball, President & CEO of the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation. “The rapid growth of Steiner Studios means the rapid growth of manufacturing and good-paying jobs in the Navy Yard.”

“I am very pleased to join Mayor Bloomberg and members of the Administration today to celebrate the opening of five new sound stages here at the Navy Yard,” said Council Member Stephen Levin. “Continued job development at the Navy Yard is a goal of my first term in office and I am proud to work with Steiner Studios and the Brooklyn Navy Yard leadership to see that goal become a reality.”

The five new stages at Steiner support heavy electrical loads, are soundproof and column-free and possess massive silent heating, ventilating and air conditioning units. The building also features various support spaces, offices, dressing rooms, hair and make-up rooms and wardrobe rooms. Coupled with the existing five stages, Steiner Studios now totals 355,000 square feet, including editing suites, mill shops and prop storage. Steiner Studios sits on 20 acres of the Brooklyn Navy Yard and includes on-site parking, a full commissary, a screening room and lighting & grip services. Steiner Studios first opened for business in November 2004. It has been home to films such as Sex and the City, Inside Man, Enchanted and The Adjustment Bureau as well as television series like In Treatment and Bored to Death. HBO’s Boardwalk Empire currently films at Steiner; DirecTV’s Damages recently wrapped its latest season there.

Also announced at Steiner Studios was the City’s latest effort to develop a diverse and well-trained workforce and strengthen entrepreneurs in the media and entertainment industry. In recent years, the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment has established workforce development and diversity programs that have helped hundreds of underprivileged New Yorkers gain access to and advance in their careers in the entertainment industry. Grant funding will be provided to support and expand these and other eligible training programs to further the goal of diversifying the local industry.

Working with the Department of Small Business Services through a new $500,000 training grant program for the media industry, businesses will compete for grants that cover up to 70 percent of training costs. The grants will help media businesses train employees in cutting-edge technologies and software, allowing them to boost their competitiveness and enter new markets. Businesses will have the opportunity to work with a training specialist to craft a proposal that meets their needs. Applications will be rated on the business’s capacity to carry out the project successfully, the impact on the business’s bottom line, and employees’ new skills and increased wages.

Strategic Steps for Growth, a program SBS runs in partnership with the Berkley Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation at New York University’s Leonard N. Stern School of Business, will also expand to include a class specifically for entrepreneurs in the media and entertainment industry. Using an award winning curriculum developed by Interise, this nine-month executive business management program allows small business owners to use their own business as a case study throughout and connects them to a support network of business advisors, other entrepreneurs, and public/private-sector resources to help them grow. The 41 graduates from the past two classes have collectively secured $1.6 million in new financing and created 100 new jobs.

In an effort to build on and expand the City’s thriving entertainment industry and bridge it to new opportunities in digital media, the New York City Economic Development Corporation, in connection with the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, will issue a request for proposals for an operator and physical space to establish the “Made in NY” Media Center. The media center will provide media entrepreneurs with affordable workspace and serve as a central meeting place where traditional media companies and new media entrepreneurs can meet, interact and collaborate. It will host educational workshops and training sessions catered to segments across the media industry and intended to encourage the type of cross-sector learning and creative cooperation that will ensure that the media industry is well-positioned for the digital age. It will also support new businesses in the field of emerging media, like interactive entertainment, digital advertising and mobile apps, by providing high-quality, ready-to-use office space that will accommodate numerous companies and a variety of employees. The space will also include conference rooms, production office space and a screening room.

The “Made in NY” Marketing Credit, which provides free co-branded advertising to productions that shoot the majority of their project in the five boroughs, will also be enhanced to include additional bus shelters, subway advertising, and Taxi TV spots. Participating projects also donate a percentage of their production costs to local arts and cultural organizations. In order to expand the number of participants that can take advantage of this increase of exposure in the City’s media market, each production will receive a fixed benefit based its budget.

In 2011, 188 films shot on location in New York City, as well as 140 television series. This spring, the City expects at least 13 television pilots to be shot here as well. Productions support over 4,000 local businesses, ranging from hardware stores, dry cleaners, prop houses, camera rental facilities and more. In an effort to connect local vendors with productions, the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment developed the “Made in NY” Discount Card Program. Participating businesses provide a discount off their goods and services to eligible production shooting in the City. Filmmakers can find these vendors, located throughout the five boroughs, with the “Made in NY” discount card app, available for smart phones.

Coinciding with the expansion at Steiner Studios and as part of the Brooklyn Navy Yard’s expansion, the “Made in NY” Production Assistant Training Program – which is operated by nonprofit Brooklyn Workforce Innovations  – will be co-locating its activities at the Brooklyn Navy Yard’s Building 92. The program, which was developed in partnership between the Mayor’s Office of Media & Entertainment and BWI, provides free training to unemployed or underemployed New Yorkers who lack opportunities in the production industry and teaches them the skills needed for entry level jobs on set and in production offices. Approximately 96 percent of the program graduates are people of color, and “Made in NY” PAs have worked on over 2,000 productions, cumulatively earning more than $7.5 million in wages. Many graduates are advancing in their careers, and some have gained union membership. At today’s announcement, recent graduates of the “Made in NY” PA Training cycle were on hand after having undergone five weeks of rigorous skills training and industry internships. These young men and women now join the more than 300 program alumni working in production.

“BWI is excited to be part of the Brooklyn Navy Yard’s continued transformation into one of the City’s most dynamic economic centers,” said Aaron Shiffman, BWI’s Executive Director. “Our trained graduates are ready to begin careers in production and participate in this industry, which Steiner Studios’ expansion represents.”

TCM Classic Film Festival

Watch the discussion between controversial filmmaker and NYU film professor, Spike Lee, TCM host, Robert Osborne, and a live audience, as they discuss the 1962 film, “To Kill a Mockingbird,” based on the American classic novel by Harper Lee, published in 1960. Set in the deep South during the Great Depression, the Alabama native, Harper Lee, believed an author “should write about what s/he knows and write truthful.”

“The story takes place during three years of the Great Depression in the fictional “tired old town” of Maycomb, Alabama. It focuses on six-year-old Scout Finch, who lives with her older brother Jem and their widowed father Atticus, a middle-aged lawyer. Jem and Scout befriend a boy named Dill who visits Maycomb to stay with his aunt each summer. The three children are terrified of, and fascinated by, their neighbor, the reclusive “Boo” Radley. The adults of Maycomb are hesitant to talk about Boo and, for many years, few have seen him. The children feed each other’s imagination with rumors about his appearance and reasons for remaining hidden, and they fantasize about how to get him out of his house. Following two summers of friendship with Dill, Scout and Jem find that someone is leaving them small gifts in a tree outside the Radley place. Several times, the mysterious Boo makes gestures of affection to the children, but, to their disappointment, never appears in person.

Atticus is appointed by the court to defend Tom Robinson, a black man who has been accused of raping a young white woman, Mayella Ewell. Although many of Maycomb’s citizens disapprove, Atticus agrees to defend Tom to the best of his ability. Other children taunt Jem and Scout for Atticus’ actions, calling him a “nigger-lover”. Scout is tempted to stand up for her father’s honor by fighting, even though he has told her not to. For his part, Atticus faces a group of men intent on lynching Tom. This danger is averted when Scout, Jem, and Dill shame the mob into dispersing by forcing them to view the situation from Atticus’ and Tom’s points of view.

Because Atticus does not want them to be present at Tom Robinson’s trial, Scout, Jem, and Dill watch in secret from the colored balcony. Atticus establishes that the accusers—Mayella and her father, Bob Ewell, the town drunk—are lying. It also becomes clear that the friendless Mayella was making sexual advances towards Tom and her father caught her and beat her badly. Despite significant evidence of Tom’s innocence, the jury convicts him. Jem’s faith in justice is badly shaken, as is Atticus’, when a hopeless Tom is shot and killed while trying to escape from prison.

Humiliated by the trial, Bob Ewell vows revenge. He spits in Atticus’ face on the street, tries to break into the presiding judge’s house, and menaces Tom Robinson’s widow. Finally, he attacks the defenseless Jem and Scout as they walk home on a dark night from the school Halloween pageant. Jem’s arm is broken in the struggle, but amid the confusion, someone comes to the children’s rescue. The mysterious man carries Jem home, where Scout realizes that he is Boo Radley.

Maycomb’s sheriff arrives and discovers that Bob Ewell has been killed in the struggle. The sheriff argues with Atticus about the prudence and ethics of holding Jem or Boo responsible. Atticus eventually accepts the sheriff’s story that Ewell simply fell on his own knife. Boo asks Scout to walk him home, and after she says goodbye to him at his front door, he disappears again. While standing on the Radley porch, Scout imagines life from Boo’s perspective and regrets that they never repaid him for the gifts he had given them.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_Kill_a_Mockingbird

At the NYC premiere of Angelina Jolie’s directorial debut of “In the Land of Blood and Honey,” Christiane Amanpour stated, “The Bosnian War (April 1992- December 1995), was our generations Vietnam. Our government turned away and made excuses as to why they could not intervene. There is no way to sugar coat what happened in Bosnia. What is so remarkable is how they kept their human dignity and refused to surrender.  Journalists tried to tell the story, and the Clinton administration deployed Richard Holbrooke, and no one has been shooting at one another for the last 16 years.  One good thing did come from the war, never again can people rape with impunity. It is now a crime.  The Bosnian War was a searing and wrenching time, but it is important.”

Originally from London, England, Cameron Sinclair, Chief Eternal Optimist, for “Architecture for Humanity,” attended Woodrow Wilson Elementary school in my hometown of Westfield, NJ for two years in the 1980’s.  Cameron has grown up to show that altruism and hard work pay off, by seeking architectural solutions to humanitarian crises by bringing professional design services to communities in need.

As of 2003, primary school was made mandatory and free of charge to all schoolchildren in Kenya.  After the 8th grade, however, there is a limited number of high schools and qualified teachers, and unlike the primary schools, the secondary schools charge a fee, making it difficult for the parents to afford.  North of Nairobi, in the remote mountain region know as the Aberdare Mountains, there was no high school at all, until “The Nobelity Project” and “Architecture for Humanity” came along.

Turk Pipkin, founder of “The Nobelity Project,” an education and action non-profit which seeks to find solutions to many pressing global problems, advocates for the basic rights for children worldwide. Turk had an idea to build a rain-catching basketball court with a roof, water storage tanks and solar powered purification, which won an international design competition known as  the Nike Gamechangers Award, that links sports with social change. It was then that he teamed up with “Architecture for Humanity” to create the area’s first high school, Mahiga Hope High School, fully equipped with a computer and science lab, and eight classrooms for 350 children.

“It costs $11 Billion a year to educate every child worldwide through the eighth grade.  $11 Billion is less than the US Government spends on the military in one week.”

Special appearances from Lyle Lovett, Willie Nelson, Barack Obama’s sister, Auma Obama, and Desmond Tutu.

“Force of Nature, The David Suzuki Story,” is an important documentary about nature and the  environment, that will  be showing at Cinema Village, located at 22 East 12th Street, NYC beginning on Dec 2nd, 2011.

Dr. David Suzuki is an iconic Canadian scientist, educator, broadcaster and activist referred to as the godfather of the environmental movement. In the documentary, “Force of Nature,” he delivers his last lecture, which he refers to as ”a distillation of my life and thoughts, my legacy, and what I want to say before I die.”  This film makes a nice adjunct to The Island President.

He touches on the following facts, “The human relationship with the planet has transmogrified.  We have become a force like no other species. In the 3.8 billion years that life has existed on Earth, the ascension to this position of power has happened with explosive speed. It took all of human existence to reach a population of 1 billion people early in the 19th century and in less than 2 centuries it shot straight up past 7 billion. Each time the population of the planet doubles, the people who are alive at that moment number more than all of the other people who have ever lived.  Now, we are also living more than twice as long as people did in the past so our numbers and longevity alone mean that as the most numerous mammal on the planet, we now have a very heavy ecological footprint. It takes a lot of land, air and water to support us and keep us alive.  A global economy built on supplying an ever expanding consumer demand exploits the entire planet as a source of raw materials. Our numbers, our vast technological muscle power, our exploding consumer demand and global economy, we have become a new kind of force on the planet. One species, us, is single handedly altering the biological, physical and chemical nature of the planet in a mere instant in cosmic time. We have become a “FORCE OF NATURE.”

Aside from the interview above, you really must watch, “FORCE OF NATURE,” and learn what Dr. David Suzuki has spent his entire life studying.   He goes further in depth to discuss the economic meltdown of 2008, capitalism and it’s significance in relation to nature, climate change, our forests, argon in the air, the extinction of 50,000 species, the depletion of fish, the biosphere and the challenge of making things right and living within harmony and balance.

Meet the President of the Maldives, President Mohamed Nasheed, or “The Island President,” in a new documentary directed by Jon Shenk, which was recently acquired by Samuel Goldwyn.  The Maldives, or Republic of Maldives, is an island nation made up of 1,192 islands and 26 atolls. It is approximately 430 miles off the coast of India and Sri Lanka, and faces a severe risk of being submerged by rising ocean waters as a result of climate change. The jovial President Mohamed Nasheed goes as far as donning his scuba geer and hosting an international board meeting underwater in order to get the point across that the entire island nation faces extinction by the end of the century if nothing is done to reduce emissions and CO2 as soon as possible.

“I’m Joe Frazier, sharp as a laser, and I’m here for you!”~ Joe Frazier

The legendary Joe Frazier was scheduled to make an appearance at the DOC NYC premiere of “JOE FRAZIER: WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARS” last night, but instead, it was one of the saddest days in boxing history. The film, directed by Mike Todd, reaches deep into the heart, soul and roots of the real man, and not just the boxing heavyweight champion from the ring.  Joe Frazier was true to his family, and always returned to his hometown of Beufort, SC. He never had any negative thoughts, was motivated, unstoppable, wanted a better life for him and his family, and set out to do what he put his mind to.  Fighting “his way,” Joe Frazier went on to compete against Muhammad Ali on March 8, 1971 and the third and final match between the two, known as the “Thrilla in Manila,” on Oct 1, 1975. These matches were ranked as some of the best and most watched fights in boxing history. But aside from being a champion in the ring, Joe wanted to give something back to the community and opened the Joe Frazier gym in Philadelphia, PA. “God made us all one, and we need to look out for each other.” Most of us need love and someone there to say, “you can do it,” so he created a place where an inner city child could go to stay out of trouble.  See the documentary, “JOE FRAZIER: WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARS,” and pay homage to an icon.

An encore screening of “JOE FRAZIER: WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARS” is scheduled to show at IFC on THURSDAY, NOV 10th @ 1:00pm and 8:15pm with the Director, Mike Todd in person!
