A-Listers Take Over Sundance Film Festival With These 8 Must-See Movies

Jan 22, 2015  |   Contributor: Mila Pantovich

The beginning of each new year is so exciting, with award shows and film festivals popping up all over the place, and the Sundance Film Festival is probably our favorite event. This fest consistently offers up some of the year's best films, many of which get Oscar nominations down the road (like the most recent Boyhood and Whiplash), and this year is pretty absurd....

Love New Music? Rising Aussie Artist Josef Salvat Needs To Be on Your 2015 Playlist

Jan 19, 2015  |   Contributor: Mila Pantovich

From the moment a close friend sent me the music video for This Life by Josef Salvat, I was obsessed. Almost bordering on indecent, his infectious beats are woven with introspective lyrics that feel intimate. Just in the span between our interview and the time of publication, Josef's song Diamonds (the track penned by Sia for Rihanna) was used in a Sony advert and recording indie...

Get ready to place some more bets on this year's award season, because the Oscar nominations are officially out. Birdman and The Grand Budapest Hotel lead with nine nominations each, with The Imitation Game following closely with eight. Boyhood and ... Read More

Here is How Korean Artist JeeYoung Lee Actually Makes Her Dreams Come True

Jan 13, 2015  |   Contributor: Mila Pantovich

We discovered artist JeeYoung Lee back in December 2013 and fell in love with the landscapes she creates in her tiny studio in Seoul, Korea. Without relying on Photoshop, she manages to make her creative vision into a reality, using her scenes to explore famous folk tales, issues related to her sense of identity, and perhaps the coolest of all, her dreams. ...

From the Clooney Burn to Jennifer Lopez's "Globes": The Best Jokes, Flubs, & Photobombs From the Golden Globes

Jan 12, 2015  |   Contributor: Mila Pantovich

Last night's Golden Globes brought us some surprising—though not disappointing—wins (congrats Wes Anderson!) and tons of on-point jokes from the comedic hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. A lot can be said for what the wins mean for the future of entertainment (especially in terms of television due to Netflix and Amazon scoring some important awards and the fact that every TV winner was a first-timer), and as always, the flicks that do well at the Globes have a pretty great chance at doing well in the Oscar race....

Jan 9, 2015  |   Contributor: Mila Pantovich

We hope that instead of staying in to watch your favorite Golden Globes nominees on Netflix last night, you were hanging out with them at Audi's sixth annual pre-award's party at Cecconi’s in West Hollywood. If you weren't, our deepest condolences.... Read More

Captivating Video Shows How Technology and Dance Can Create a Beautiful Modern Art Experience

Jan 8, 2015  |   Contributor: Mila Pantovich

This video may look like CGI was involved in the editing, but it's actually comprised of clips from the last performance of Pixel, a super cool show that brings dancers into a virtual setting. Technically, the Pixel show ended its run on November 14, 2014, so it's not exactly new, but we have a feeling it will be new to most.... Read More

Cirque du Soleil Uses 10 Drones to Create a Magical Dance (Video)

Jan 6, 2015  |   Contributor: Mila Pantovich

Technology is definitely at its most beautiful when it is able to communicate with us in the form of dance, especially when choreographed by Cirque du Soleil. Similar to the wearable sphere we showed you yesterday, SPARKED: A Live Interaction Between Humans and Quadcopters shows how amazing it can be when machines are programmed to move with us, without the use of CGI. ...

Jan 5, 2015  |   Contributor: Mila Pantovich

We love going to the ballet. It's an experience that isn't quite like any other, but there is one thing that would make it better: a computer-controlled sphere. ... Read More
