  • Classrooms of the Future Marty Mcfly and Dr Emmett Brown Managed To
    Classrooms of the Future Marty McFly and Dr Emmett Brown managed to do it. They transported themselves through time in the film Back to the Future and its sequels. In the second film, on October 26, 1985, Dr. Emmett Brown arrived in the DeLorean time machine and persuaded Marty McFly and his girlfriend, Jennifer Parker, to travel to the future with him and help their forthcoming children. They travelled thirty years ahead to October 26, 2015. The film was actually made in 1989, some 26 years before the futuristic date in the film. The screenwriters, Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale, attempted to predict the future. According to Zemeckis, the 2015 depicted in the film was not meant to be an accurate representation of the future. However, the film did correctly predict a number of technological and sociological changes that occurred by 2015, including: the rise of ubiquitous cameras; the use of unmanned flying drones for newsgathering; widescreen flat-panel television sets mounted on walls with multiple channel viewing; video chat systems; hands-free video games; talking hologram billboards; wearable technology; tablet computers with fingerprint scanners; and head-mounted displays. Payment on personal portable devices was also depicted. I am also trying to predict a future: that of education, yet I am not looking 26 years hence. Rather I am looking at five to seven years and the change is likely to be just as impressive as in the film, only achieved in fewer years. This is due to the exponential growth in IT and the impact it is likely to have on education.

    The Missouri Stories Scriptwriting Fellowship is an international competition for screenplays and television pilot scripts with story lines set in Missouri. Three scripts will be chosen from all submissions. The winning writers will receive an all expenses paid trip to our concentrated fellowship experience, held in Missouri in February 2020. The writers will be joined by accomplished industry mentors who will work with each fellow. In addition to workshop time and one-on-one mentor time, we will organize a day trip to visit the area of the state where the scripts are set, for added inspiration. Past industry mentors include: Bob Gale, best known for co-writing films in the “Back to the Future” trilogy; Angelo Pizzo, who wrote among others, Hoosiers and Rudy; Valerie Woods, currently working on OWN’s Queen Sugar; Philip LaZebnik who wrote the screenplays for Mulan and The Prince of Egypt; and Kathleen McGee Anderson, noted for a variety of television credits including ABC Family’s “Lincoln Heights.” A separate committee of industry reading judges will read, score and determine the semifinalists, finalists, and winners of the fellowship competition. Scripts will be evaluated on a ten-point scale for each of six categories: Presentation/Format; Premise/Concept; Structure/Plot/Pacing; Characters/Dialogue; Theme/Style/Tone; and Missouri Relevance. Writers will receive copies of their scoresheets.

Fox 's high school teenager and Christopher Lloyd's endearing mad scientist. Back To The Future 's story begins proper when Doc, who Marty hasn't seen for a week, instructs his young friend to meet him at the Twin Pines Mall later that night. In a conversation that has since been indoctrinated into movie legend, Doc Brown reveals that he built a time machine out of a DeLorean and the duo need to take this contraption for a test drive while avoiding a band of angry Libyan terrorists. As anyone would be in his Nike sneakers, Marty is shocked at Doc's time-bending breakthrough, and even more surprised that journeys through the continuum will be Back to the Future: Continuum Conundrum in such style. Marty and Jennifer investigate in and it's actually Jennifer who deducts that if Marty didn't see Emmett building the DeLorean, he must have a secret lab tucked away somewhere. Marty's girlfriend is proven right when the duo discover a building registered under Doc Brown's birth name, "Von Braun. Furthermore, Bob Gale's involvement in the comic project ensures that Doc Brown's second lab is entirely canon. Craig first began contributing to Screen Rant inBack to the Future: Continuum Conundrum years after graduating college, and has been ranting ever since, mostly to himself in a darkened room.

  • Swagway, Official Sponsor for the Back in Time World Premiere, Takes Us One Step Closer to the Future of Transportation
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Lauren Song Pearl PR Group Phone: C (310) 880-9297 O (310)275-3227, x107 Email: [email protected] Swagway, official sponsor for the Back in Time world premiere, takes us one step closer to the future of transportation NEW YORK, NY (October 19, 2015): You’ve seen Back to the Future’s Marty McFly get around on his futuristic hoverboard. Flash forward to 2015, where with the help of Swagway, that prediction has now somewhat become a reality. While not quite floating on air, Swagway, the hands-free smart board, glides as if one really is floating on air. Built on technology that eliminates reaction time for seamless maneuvering, the Swagway has the ability to pivot and rotate 360 degrees, while the “smart” capability makes it sense the core of the rider and adjusts according to their movement. To celebrate the 30 year anniversary of the Back to the Future trilogy, filmmakers Jason Aaron, Louis Krubich and Lee Leshen are paying homage with Back in Time, a documentary which takes a look at the very real impact the Back to the Future movies have had on our culture. Complete with the original cast, including interviews with Stephen Spielberg, Robert Zemeckis and Michael J. Fox, the film promises to not only entertain but is “a cinematic monument to the vastness of the trilogy’s fandom.” explains Aaron. He continues, “Back to the Future is all about futuristic out of the box technology. Swagway is bringing that to the masses right now. For us to be attached to an amazing brand like Swagway, and to have them enable a New York City gala premiere for us, is an honor.” The world premiere will take place on Tuesday, October 20th, at the Sunshine Cinema in New York.

  • The Business of Producing
    BUSINESS OF PRODUCING Course: MKTG-GB.2116.30 Spring 2019 Professor: Peter Newman Email: [email protected] Location: KMC 5-80 Teaching Assistant: Kristian King Email: [email protected] COURSE BACKGROUND This specialized EMT course is a “soup to nuts” examination of what it means to be an independent film and television producer. Through real life experiences it looks into what makes film and TV such unique businesses. The course will take a close look at the inevitable battles between commerce and art. It will focus on identifying the factors of risk versus reward in selecting projects, and seeing them to fruition. As potential entrepreneurial producers, the class will study techniques in leveraging limited amounts of time and capital into maximum results; while attempting to balance unbridled optimism against sensible business logic. COURSE OBJECTIVES - Understand the role and responsibilities of being an independent producer. - Establishing a way of judging the artistic merit and economic possibilities of a project at various stages from inception to completion. - To learn the infrastructures of companies in the entertainment industry, and to understand how to effectively work within them to successfully produce content. - To examine morality in the film business. How to balance one’s personal values and quality of life in a difficult business environment - What are a producer’s objectives, and how is one willing to behave to get them achieved? COURSE REQUIREMENTS 1 Class participation will be extremely important, since much of the study of the role of the producer will be obtained from specific lectures, articles, assignments, video clips, some selected texts, and experienced guest speakers.
