This is the latest and official trailer from the film Indie Game: The Movie Directed by James Swirsky and Lisanne Pajot this film is a fascinating look into the mind of the indie game creators.  They are truly the Harvey Pekar’s and Robert Crumbs of our generation.  I can’t wait to see the film.

Pagani vs Lamborghini – Need For Speed

I am fascinated with video trailers made for the gaming industry. From the Indie Game the Movie web series to the Crysis 2 cinematic trailer. This genre is making the most of viral media in a way that should be inspiring to every new media filmmaker out there.  Here is the latest super cool trailer from EA sport for the game Need for Speed Hot Pursuit. It’s a really cool chase sequence that looks like a video game.  You can also find the making of link here.

Indie Game: The Movie – Growing Up Edmund

This is another video from my new favorite viral series promoting the upcoming feature length documentary Indie Game: The Movie. This episode profiles a prolific gamer Edmund McMillen. He talks about his inspiration behind the game Aether, and how feeling isolated as a child inspired him to create his characters.  Directed by James Swirsky and Lisanne Pajot this film is a fascinating look into the mind of the indie game creators.  They are truly the Harvey Pekar’s and Robert Crumbs of our generation.

GAMER GEEK ALERT! – HEADCRABBED

Here is one in a series of teasers for an upcoming feature length film called Indie Game The Movie which is about video games, their creators and their craft. As a filmmaker/video editor with barely enough time or desire to do much more than shoot and edit, there will always be a place in my heart for socially awkward geeky programmers toiling away at their keyboards for hours on end.  For more information on this film log onto indiegamethemovie.com

Crysis 2 – The Wall – cinematic trailer

I am not a fan of video games, I haven’t played one since the 80′s, but I am a fan of the video game trailers. The really good ones are so cinematic and melodramatic which is how I like my movies. I ran across this trailer for the game Crysis 2 and thought it was brilliant! Check it out.  Below that I posted the trailer for GTA 3 which inspired me among other things to think seriously about producing films.

Styles of the Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit event

So I hit up that event for the Need For Speed - Hot Pursuit game premier with Trevz the other night for The New Pop.  I was in hot pursuit of some great fashion, and of course, this being NYC, I found it. I couldn’t help but notice that style was out in droves.  I felt inspired by what I saw at the Classic Car Club – the dope fashions ranged from a vintage couture look to empire-shouldered frocks in the vein of pop starlets like Rihanna and Lady Gaga.

Enjoy.

Need For Speed Hot Pursuit – Video

Here is the video from the EA Sports gamer event that took place at the Classic Car Club NY this past Wednesday.  It was a hands on VIP sneak peak at the yet to be released game Need For Speed Hot Pursuit which looked pretty cool.  The last game console I owned was ColecoVision, so take whatever praises I give out with a grain of salt.  If you missed this event there is going to be a 7 city tour, next stop Lollapalooza (Chicago).
