That’s really all that matters.”

    It’s a celebration of love, not perfection.

North Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) March 31, 2006

This April, the 2006 Newport Beach Film Festival will be screening Episode 1 of Ford Austin, Scott Ingalls, & Tomas Arceo’s independent web series “The Wright Stuff”, a hilariously ingenious comedy that follows the Wright Brothers as they take assignments from President Teddy Roosevelt and use their “flying machine” to fight evil throughout the world.

“The main thing that makes this series so funny is the fact that the Wright Brothers actually only flew their plane for roughly a minute at a time and we have them both flying around the world on madcap adventures”, claim show creators Ford Austin & Scott Ingalls.

The 2005 Newport Beach Film Festival is where Academy Award winner for Best Picture “CRASH” had it’s US premiere in 2005. Now, the 3 aspiring television producers Austin, Ingalls, & Arceo exclaim, “We feel that if it’s good enough for Lion’s Gate then it’s good enough for us to premiere there, too!” Well, not entirely your “premiere”, fellas. “The Wright Stuff” has been a critically acclaimed web series on the now infamous Channel 101 since August 2005. Channel 101, an inherently comedic Internet-TV network, touts such stars as: Jack Black, Sarah Silverman, TV’s Donny Most (Happy Days), Ethan Phillips (Star Trek: Voyager), and SNL’s Andy Samberg who’s digital short Lazy Sunday can now be seen on every ipod on the planet. Each month Channel 101 selects it’s content democratically as hundreds of excited fans gather at Cinespace in Hollywood, California to watch the latest “network” programming and vote on what shows should be “primetime” and which should be “cancelled”. “You make a 5-minute “pilot” episode, it gets into “primetime”, and after 6 months of defending your primetime spot you start to look forward to being cancelled so you can move on and think about creating your next show”, Austin says.

And for Austin/Ingalls/Arceo, Channel 101 and The Newport Beach Film Festival are just the beginning. Every episode of The “Wright Stuff” series, with more aeronautic slapstick, bowler hats, and 1910 period-film charisma than you can cram into the overhead bin, has been selected to screen in competition at the 2006 Bare Bones Film Festival in Muskogee, Oklahoma this April. “All the episodes have also been nominated for the Best Comedy Short Award and/or Awards…I guess we are competing against ourselves at that one,” Austin says with a wry smile. Muskogee’s Bare Bones Film Festival, currently in its 7th year, is one of the last truly independent film festivals in the states. Owned and operated by Oscar Dean Ray and Shiron Butterfly, the Bare Bones Film Festival is a hugely successful anomaly of the independent world with virtually no major corporate funding.

Even though they are successful on the festival circuit, corporate funding is exactly what Austin, Ingalls, & Arceo are aiming for, according to industry insiders. With Austins’ background in acting & producing, Ingalls’ in directing, and Arceos’ in photography, the trio strike the perfect balance for success. In January 2006, the talented filmmakers formed their own production company called Fleaco Pix LLC so they could develop their TV show ideas for major networks in Hollywood. Austin claims, “Studios and networks such as NBC, DISNEY and FOX have created mentor-type programs to develop new television shows; and after Scott’s involvement with ‘Drew Carey’s Green Screen Show’ and Paramount television producing one of my great courtroom show ideas I sold to them this past year, we decided to get in line to develop our other super-fresh ideas”. Foremost in their plans for moving forward is the commitment to find development executives at NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX, and DISNEY, to nurture their talents and aspirations as show runners so they can create the programming for future generations.

“Our creativity is off the charts, and now there are more outlets in Hollywood and around the country where an actor, writer or filmmaker can develop their work without taking on a huge financial burden in order to reach an audience. We’re looking to get involved in programs such as PSNBC and Fox Searchlab’s TV division to provide the infrastructure that we need as artists in order to produce our works. We are the exactly what that all creative executives in both New York and in Los Angeles are looking for.”

Fleaco Pix LLC, founded in January 2006, is based in Los Angeles, California. Owners: Ford Austin, Scott Ingalls, and Tomas Arceo.

Kluang, Johor (PRWEB) October 10, 2006

A 30-year-old engineer from a small town in southern Peninsular Malaysia is hoping to make his ‘Internet Tower’ (http://www.internettower.com) as world famous as the Petronas Towers. Just as these famous towers draw large crowds of tourists from all over the world, Lim hopes the Internet Tower will soon be a household name, swamped by online traffic from all over the internet.

Lim set up his site, internettower.com, one night after watching the reality TV show “The Apprentice” into the early hours. He was unable to sleep and, seeing “The Trump Tower”, the inspiration for the internet tower struck. “I was very surprised that the domain was still available and immediately registered it,” he said.

Now open to booking, the Internet Tower, stands a majestic 200 stories tall. It has 10,000 units and is divided into 12 zones. There are only 50 units on each level. Each of the 12 zones is reserved for specific industries. The largest zone, comprising 95 levels, starts on the 101st floor. The smallest and most exclusive zone is limited to the five top levels. The 10 bottom floors are reserved for future ideas and not available for bookings.

Lim, who has a degree in electrical & electronic engineering, made it easy for people who book units in the tower to both customize the look of the tower and include a link to their website from their unit.

The Internet Tower is a mini representation of the internet marketplace and doubles as a must-see online tourist destination.

“If you go to Paris, you must see the Eiffel Tower. If you go on the World Wide Web, you simply must see the Internet Tower,” commented Lim.

Asked if his engineering background helped with building the tower, Lim explained, “Although I certainly didn’t directly use the same skills a civil engineer would need when helping create a building, I drew upon traits common to all engineers, like ingenuity and creativity, to bring the Internet Tower to life.”

The Internet Tower site is now open for new reservations. The Internet Tower will be officially launched to virtual tourists on January 1, 2007.

Wikia, Inc. (http://www.wikia.com), the leading provider of community resources for building and organizing free content on every topic, celebrates the life and work of Muppet creator Jim Henson on Muppet Wiki (http://muppet.wikia.com ), where a community of fans have created the largest collection of Muppet information ever assembled. Henson’s birthday is September 24th; he would be 71 years old today.

Muppet Wiki, founded in December 2005, includes more than 15,000 articles on Henson’s work, covering The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock, Muppet Babies, The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, and the dozens of movies and TV shows created by the Jim Henson Company and Jim Henson’s Creature Shop.

The wiki format allows anyone to add information and edit pages, giving Muppet fans the opportunity to build a comprehensive guide. The word “wiki” comes from a Hawaiian word for “fast” — and wikis are a powerful way to assemble a lot of information, very quickly. Working together as a group, contributors can pull together everything there is to know about the Muppets and Jim Henson, while building a community of fans at the same time.

Muppet Wiki contains articles on more than 2,000 Muppet characters (http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Muppet_Characters), including the famous characters — Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Big Bird and Cookie Monster — as well as the obscure ones, like Lew Zealand, the Mighty Favog, and Oscar the Grouch’s girlfriend, Grundgetta. Muppet fans have also created pages for 600 Muppet Show songs, 1,000 Sesame Street episodes, and 150 Muppet monsters.

To learn more about Wikia and their television-related wikis, please visit the Wikia Entertainment Network at: http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Entertainment.

About Wikia, Inc.

Since Wikia’s launch in November 2004, more than 800,000 articles on 3,000 topics have been created and edited by over 200,000 registered users in 70 languages.

Wikia enables groups to share information, news, stories, media and opinions that fall outside the scope of an encyclopedia. Jimmy Wales and Angela Beesley launched Wikia in 2004 to provide community-based wikis inspired by the model of Wikipedia — the free, open source encyclopedia founded by Jimmy Wales.

Manchester, New Hampshire (PRWEB) February 07, 2012

Gulf Coast Multi Media today announces DVDFind 1.1 for iOS, an update to their Entertainment app that lets the user find the locations of DVD retail stores and/or DVD rental kiosks (vending machines) in either scrolling list or Google Street Map views. Touching any listing opens the link to the location’s web site, allowing the user to browse through the available DVDs, Games, Blu-ray discs, and other media. The app will automatically search using the iDevice’s current location or search using an address or zip code. Users can set a search radius in Preferences of any distance between 1 and 10 miles. Results are displayed almost immediately in map or list view, with listings ordered by proximity.

Whether at home, vacationing, or traveling the desire to watch a DVD can strike at any time. With widespread ownership of computers, DVD players, and laptops, movie lovers can enjoy films wherever they are. The instant solution to locations and availability is DVDFind, which can be set to locate only kiosks or both kiosks and retail stores. As the DVD rental market has changed, there are fewer stores and more kiosks. There are currently more than 28,000 Redbox kiosks and more than 11,000 Blockbuster Express kiosks in the U.S., all able to be found, along with thousands of other kiosks and retailers.

Feature Highlights:

Using your current location, find DVDs, Games, and Blu-ray discs in kiosks and retail locations within a user selectable range of 1 – 10 miles
Perform a custom search by entering a full address or zip code
Search for vending machine/kiosk only locations, or both kiosk and retail store locations
From locations displayed on the map, you can see the distance to each location
View the results in a list by distance
From the results displayed go directly to the kiosk’s website and browse the media list
Read descriptions and reviews for the releases and watch movie trailers
Reserve the DVDs, Games, Blu-ray discs, or other available media
For retail location results, shop the store’s website launch in portrait orientation, the app defaults to the current location and displays the nearest retail store and/or kiosk on a street level Google Map. A button in the top tab bar brings up a scrolling list, each listing complete with name, street address, city, state, phone number, and distance accurate to one-hundredth of a mile. The vertically scrolling list displays the closest listing first and the farthest, last. Touching any listing immediately opens its website, from which the user can browse, check availability, make reservations, and watch trailers.

“While on vacation in Florida, I wanted to watch a DVD with my wife, but I didn’t know where to find a kiosk,” commented Don Bourque of Gulf Coast Multi Media. “That’s when the idea for DVDFind came to me.”
