A great contest that the San Diego Asian FIlm Foundation is sponsoring. For all you aspiring film makers or politicians or …regular people check it out!
If you have access to a video camera and a great idea, here’s your chance to take action in 30 seconds! The San Diego Asian Film Foundation is challenging YOU to submit a 30-second public service announcement that promotes civic responsibility and democratic participation in the electoral and public policy processes. In other words, your PSA should help encourage voter registration and participation in the APIA community. Be creative!
We will choose a winner to receive $1000 and a Sony HDF-FX1 HDV Camcorder (worth $3700), plus bragging rights - the winning PSA will be screened before all film programs at the film festival.
Entries must be postmarked by July 31, and no more than 30 seconds in length.
Go to SDAFF.org for more info
Panic at the Disco is currently on The Honda Civic Tour with Motion City Soundtrack, The Hush Sound, and Phantom Planet. To show their appreciation for all your support, they are giving you a chance to win enough gear to start your own band!
The gear includes a SJC Drum Kit, Fender guitar and a Fender bass guitar.. and these aren’t just any ol’ guitars… they are a Fender American Standard Stratocaster® guitar and a Fender American Standard Precision Bass® guitar! Also, Paul Frank has designed a one-of-a-kind Bad Cat Panther amplifier to add to the prize package.

I’ve noticed everyone is making their own music these days. Well for those who aren’t so music program savvy like me, check out Musicshake (http://www.musicshake.com)
Musicshake
It’s “The easiest way to make music in the worldâ€Â
Just combine different blocks of instruments and vocal samples on a timeline from Musicshake’s large library of samples. I must say, its simple and its pretty dayam addicting.
