We’re already well into 2013, (which is scary) and there are loads of new, exciting films that are being released within the next few months. There’s some obvious ones that we’re stoked about, and some…  not so obvious ones. A ton of sequels, a few remakes and more. Check out our picks below and watch the trailers if you haven’t already!

Calia:
The Great Gatsby - Leonardo DiCaprio AND directed by Baz Luhrmann. This is going to be one extravagant depiction of the roaring 20’s, as it should be.
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire - Read all 3 books in about a week and it’s killing me that I have to wait all the way until November for this to be released.


Sean:
Ender’s Game


Mike:
Kick Ass 2
The Way Way Back


Jacob:
Monsters University - Pixar follow up to Monsters Inc with Billy Crystal & John Goodman!
Anchorman: The Legend Continues - Will Ferrell as Ron Burgundy, again… enough said!
The Hobbit: The The Desolation of Smaug - More 3D 48fps from Peter Jackson?  Why yes, I think so.
Star Trek Into Darkness - J.J. Abrams brings back the cast of the Enterprise including a young Captain Kirk.

Congratulations Heal the Ocean!

A BIG congratulations to Hillary Hauser and Heal the Ocean for working hard to remove the septic systems from Rincon Point, South Santa Barbara County and North Ventura County.

Hillary Hauser and Jeff Young created Heal the Ocean in 1998 for this extremely important environmental project. For the past 15 years, Heal the Ocean has fought through countless lawsuits in order to make the impossible happen.

The press release that was released yesterday notes just how important this project was to the community. It states, “Surfers, who had asked Hauser to start the campaign and who had complained for years about getting illnesses from surfing the world class Rincon Point, held fundraising surf contests to raise money for the cause, and much funding came through HTO donors and finally, the Rincon homeowners themselves.” Hauser also said, “This road has been so long and hard that at our Board meeting tonight, we all looked at each other and said, ‘Can this really be over?’”

There will be a hearing for the Board of Supervisors as well as the CSD Board of Directors on May 7 at 5pm at the District Hearing Room at 5300 6th Street, Carpinteria.

Another CONGRATULATIONS to Hillary, Heal the Ocean and everyone who has helped push this project forward!

Kickstart Your Engines

Having paid my dues with the rest of the film students, I’m no stranger to the crowd-funding phenomenon known as Kickstarter. However, I’m used to it gathering backing for the most recent and “creative” post-apocalyptic student film trying to “make it” in the independent film festival circuit, not a big name from television/Hollywood. Thus begins an intriguing turn of events for the advent of crowdfunding and the (once) overlooked power it possesses. 

I thought it was truly extraordinary when the Veronica Mars film gained 100% backing via Kickstarter in just over a day, but now we have Zach Braff embarking on the same tremendous crowd-funding voyage we witnessed in tech news just a couple months ago. Yes. Zach Braff of Scrubs and Garden State Fame has already garnered $1.6 million of the $2 million budget total with 28 days to go.

The Santa Barbara Earth Day festival took place this past weekend at Alameda Park and it was an absolute blast! We were excited to share the Social Media Lounge with our friends over at LoaTree, hangout with the Community Environmental Council crew, enjoy good music, and have an overall good time.

It’s an honor to be a sponsor and marketing partner for the Community Environmental Council of Santa Barbara. Like last year, we designed and developed a live site that displayed all the fun that was going on at Earth Day from Saturday-Sunday. You can check out the live site here.

This year, there were 35,895 festival-goers and over 200 exhibitors. The food was tasty and the local music was fresh. SB Earth Day also presented two “Environmental Hero Awards” to Van Jones and Bill Nye.

Check out some of our Instagram shots below. To see more, search for the hashtag #sbearthday and you’ll see over a thousand Earth Day photos!

CrowdSurge - Why It Rocks

technology, music, ticketing platform, crowdsurge, tickets

Here at Oniracom we are always on the lookout for great new tools on the tech horizon and it is with much jubilation that I introduce a new ticketing platform to keep us forever young:

crowd

Most of the digital ticket providers that have become staples for any saavy concert-goer or event attender are largely fan focused. While the efforts of these services are exemplary, focusing on the fans can be more harmful and chaotic than helpful in the long run.

CrowdSurge, launched in the UK in 2008 is a fairly young establishment with a big undertaking: CrowdSurge seeks to build a direct bridge between artists, events, venues, etc. and fans.

While this doesn’t really seem to be a new angle for ticketing services, many have failed to accomplish this task, often leaving enough of a gap in protection of the artists/events that scalpers and other nefarious types are able to exploit a good show. Creating a void in data collection for the product providers and a bad experience for the fans. In the case of this particular service, much of the control goes back in favor of the product providers rather than the fans, re-establishing a bit of order in the wild-west that can be ticket purchasing.

Allow me to further pontificate my claims through a brief analysis of some of their services.
