Founded by Scion in 2007 to support young, emerging filmmakers, Scion Easy 10 gives up-and-coming visual artists a chance to shoot a short film on a topic of their choice. This year, Scion will be switching up the format by selecting ten media outlets to express their creativity through film. Scion allotted each filmmaker three months and a modest budget to transform their idea into a cinematic reality.

Scion is promoting Easy 10 and the individual filmmakers with an Easy 10 Compilation DVD, Easy 10 launch parties and screenings in New York City and Los Angeles, individual electronic press kits, and trips for each of the filmmakers to two film festivals of their choice.

Thanks to Scion’s ongoing artistic endeavors, Easy 10 filmmakers have an opportunity to express themselves through a medium many do not normally work in. Their films will be a testament to their hard work and creativity, and pieces of art to be enjoyed by all.

New York City Event: Thursday, January 22, 2009

Admit it – you’ve wasted plenty of work hours fiddling with web-based games, when you should have been doing something more productive – like making some of your own. With its new Kongregate Labs community site, freeware web browser gaming portal Kongregate is gunning to teach the average Joe the basics of flash game development.

Inspired by the in-house creation of a game simply called Shoot!, the site has launched the first batch in a series of detailed “shootorials” that walk you through the step-by-step process of developing a side-scrolling shooter. The project is sponsored by Scion and utilizes a free trial version of Adobe Flash CS3 to make the tutorial game. A dedicated Kongregage Labs forum provides an avenue for budding developers to bounce ideas off one another, troubleshoot issues that arise, and discuss the game creation process.

Kongregate is also running a “Driving Creativity Contest” with cash prizes to spur new game development. As the full set of “shootorials” are not yet available – new batches go live each week – entries for the month long contest will be accepted starting Oct. 28. That should give hopeful competitors some time to dive in and start concocting their diabolical flash game masterpieces. The final day to submit game entries into the contest is Nov. 28.

Behold: a simple way to learn how to develop flash games for free. What are you waiting for?

Our location will be at the Chesapeake City Park, on Greenbrier Parkway in Chesapeake, VA., just past Greenbrier Mall on September 1st, 2008- Yes, Labor Day! Perfect day for the entire family to come out and enjoy a day of super fine cars from base to completely freaked out with modifications.

There will be activities for the kids all day, a dunk-tank, food, and games throughout the day. DJ will be blazin’ the airways and live on stage nationally recognized band, “Nemesis” to perform.

All donations collected this year will benefit 2 charities: The Intrepid Fallen Hero’s fund-for details on the organization, goto-http://www.fallenheroesfund.org/fallenheroes/about/ and CHKD- Children’s Hospital of the Kings Daughter’s. We will have over 24 different classes from Audi-classics, from GM-VW, as well as SUV, Truck and Motorcycle classes. This year we will also have a “Dubs” class-for all the ballers with 20″ and up! Followed by the Bass off to blow your face off, provided by MECA with SQL and SPL testing.

Food will be provided for all entrants for car show/bass off competition. There will be a $20 donation for entry into the car show or Bass off competition-if both, $30. For more info, please contact Joe “J.R.” Drake-at scionman1@sevencityscions.net or joed2g@yahoo.com

First, the freebies. Norwegian electrosex rock outfit 120 Days is teaming up with automaker Scion for a couple Cali concerts this week that will cost you nothing — if you can get on the list, that is. The first is Tuesday in San Francisco at 330 Ritch, and the second is on Wednesday in Los Angeles at the Viper Room. These shows are invite-only affairs for the 21-and-over crowd, so click the links above and add your name and email address to get one. We recommend getting there early, since space is limited and entry’s not guaranteed. That’s a lot of variables, but that’s what you get for free.

If you’ve got cash or credit on hand despite the current economic downturn, a better bet might be checking out The Black Keys’ secret show in Cleveland — one of the recession’s hardest hit cities — on Wednesday May 7. This time around, the corporate team-up is with MySpace, which is putting on the show as part of the Secret Shows series that has in the past featured other stellar bands like Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks, The Gossip and the incredible No Age.
The sonics kick off at the Beachland Tavern, but you better get involved early, as the place only fits about 170 people. Seeing that The Black Keys (along with No Age) have released one of the best albums of the year, expect it to be packed to the rafters.
