  • From Face-Morphing to Speed- Reading, the 10 Best Apps of 2014
    05/12/2018, 0040 Page 1 of 1 CULTURE From Face-Morphing to Speed- Reading, the 10 Best Apps of 2014 DECEMBER 30, 2014 2:00 PM by FELICITY SARGENT m J f i Our ten favorite new apps of 2014 fall into two categories: apps that make our lives more convenient and apps that make our content more creative. We’ll kick off with creativity and conclude with convenience, in each case suggesting some features that could make these apps even better next year. PHHHOTO In a Nutshell: instantly adds movement to any scene and turns it into a captivating loop, which you can share on its own mobile social network, as a GIF in texts or emails, or as a video on social networks like Facebook and Instagram. Why It Made the List: It’s fun, fresh, the loops look really cool, and it’s a favorite of music and fashion royalty. Wishes for the New Year: an Android version, more cool filters, a strobe light mode that pulses the flash while you shoot for even more zing, and the ability to add tunes and beats to Phhhotos (you can practically already hear them popping off of **Katy Perry’**s and **Diplo’**s). SUPER In a Nutshell: prompts users to quickly make and share square cards that are a cross between memes, quotes, and pictures. The cards are shared on Super’s mobile social network and are also easily shareable on other social networks (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.). RELATED VIDEO Watch: Bella Hadid on Her 10-Pound Sewn-In Veil leaving with not that much hair.

  • Ava Max Could Always Envision Her Dream, She Actually Went out and Made It a Reality on Her Own
    For dreams to manifest into reality, it requires more than a fairytale wish… Truthfully, it takes hustle, heart, and a whole lot of attitude. For as much as Ava Max could always envision her dream, she actually went out and made it a reality on her own. Gathering billions of streams, multiplatinum plaques, award nominations, and acclaim from The New York Times, Rolling Stone, and many more, the international phenomenon projects an unbelievable personal journey into a poignant and punchy pop opus on her full-length debut album, Heaven & Hell [APG/Atlantic Records]. “Manifesting is really important to me,” she explains. “I put positive energy into my music. I know what I want to write, and there’s a story behind each song. It’s all about working hard and putting your heart and soul into it.” She started doing so as a kid. Prior to her birth in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Ava’s parents emigrated from Albania to the United States. Without speaking a word of English, mom and dad held down three jobs each. However, both parents retained a passion for music. Among her earliest memories, Ava recalls her mother—a classically trained vocalist—singing opera aloud. The family relocated to Virginia where they eventually settled in their first house. Along the way, Ava clung to music, listening to Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Shania Twain, to name a few. “At a very young age, I watched my parents really struggle in America,” she admits. “It was tough, and it impacted me in many ways. However, both of them always told me if they could make it here with no language and no money, then I could make it.” While in Virginia, she dove headfirst into music with the family staunchly behind her.

  • Fresh Dressed
    PRESENTS FRESH DRESSED A CNN FILMS PRODUCTION WORLD PREMIERE – DOCUMENTARY PREMIERE Running Time: 82 Minutes Sales Contact: Dogwoof Ana Vicente – Head of Theatrical Sales Tel: 02072536244 [email protected] 1 SYNOPSIS With funky, fat-laced Adidas, Kangol hats, and Cazal shades, a totally original look was born— Fresh—and it came from the black and brown side of town where another cultural force was revving up in the streets to take the world by storm. Hip-hop, and its aspirational relationship to fashion, would become such a force on the market that Tommy Hilfiger, in an effort to associate their brand with the cultural swell, would drive through the streets and hand out free clothing to kids on the corner.

Reaching deep to Southern plantation culture, the Black church, and Little Richard, director Sacha Jenkins' music-drenched history draws from a rich mix of archival materials and in-depth interviews with rappers, designers, and other industry insiders, such as Pharrell Williams, Damon Dash, Karl Kani, Kanye West, Nasir Jones, and André Leon Talley. The result is a passionate telling of how the reach for freedom of expression and a better life by a culture that refused to be squashed, would, through sheer originality and swagger, take over the mainstream. 2 ABOUT THE FILMMAKERS SACHA JENKINS – Director Sacha Jenkins, a native New Yorker, published his first magazine—Graphic Scenes & X-Plicit Language (a ‘zine about the graffiti subculture)—at age 17.
