In this series, we’ll be taking the greatest hits from our first-ever virtual football summit and providing them in a format that will allow you to apply these dynamic ideas into your own workflow. In this and subsequent volumes, you won’t just find transcripts and talking points from our best sessions and featured speakers. You’ll also have a plan for putting them into action in the new Hudl Beta experience, including templates you can copy yourself. As a high school football coach myself in my hometown of Lincoln, Nebraska, I know what it’s like to be up late at night breaking down game film, then up at 6 a.m. the next day to share what I’ve learned with my team. So I’m excited that we’re making the coaching and scouting process much more efficient for you. Over the past year and a half, we dialed in with coaches like you on what the next evolution of the core Hudl experience should look like. Through this, we created a new interface that transforms how you analyze film.

The New Mexico State Film Office today announced that the USA Network television series, “Briarpatch” produced by UCP (Universal Content Productions) and Paramount Television will begin principal photography mid-June through the end of September in Albuquerque. Starring Rosario Dawson, who will also serve as a producer, the production will employ approximately 100 New Mexico crew members and 250-350 New Mexico background talent per episode. “Briarpatch” follows Allegra Dill (Dawson), a dogged investigator returning to her border- town Texas home after her sister is murdered.

The season celebrates the beloved genres represented by Thomas’ book -- a stylish blend of crime and pulp fiction -- while updating his sense of fun, danger and place for a new generation. Based on the Ross Thomas novel of the same name, “Briarpatch” is written for television by Andy Greenwald, who will executive produce along with “Mr. Robot” creator Sam Esmail through his production company Esmail Corp and Anonymous Content’s Chad Hamilton.

  • Boris Akunin and the Rise of the Russian Detective Genre
    Olga Sobolev Boris Akunin and the Rise of the Russian Detective Genre There are very few people in Russia who have not read at least one of Boris Akunin’s nine Adventures of Erast Fandorin, do not have a cou- ple of them lying on a coffee table or who are unable to discuss ‘Erast’ at social events. Akunin’s detective novels have thousands of admirers all over Russia, and recently Fandorin has reached an even wider audi- ence, with ORT1 producing a television version of the first book in the series, Azazel′ (first published in 1988).2 Not surprisingly, then, critics refer to ‘Erastomania’.3 However, popularity and critical recognition are often mutually exclusive, and the opinion of Russian scholars is far from being unanimous. On the one hand, the virtues of Akunin’s work were acknowledged when his Coronation (published in 1999) won the 2000 Anti-Booker Prize; on the other, this award gave rise to numerous ob- jections, which can be briefly summarized in the question: why should a literary prize be awarded to a bestseller?4 Putting aside the tricky concept of ‘worthy’ literature, which causes much of the controversy surrounding Russian literary prizes,5 one might focus on the notion that awards such as the Anti-Booker (and, arguably, the Booker) attempt to identify the predominant and typical trends in contemporary literary life. Prizes are, therefore, often awarded to works embodying, or providing paradigms, of these trends, and it is against the background of such a generic notion that Akunin’s work can best be discussed.
