Watch the Short Film Centigrade: "In anticipation of a Feature Length Version, Colin Cunningham’s Centigrade is celebrating its Rerelease exclusively at Centigrademovie.Com.
Starring Colin Cunningham the film depicts the dark events surrounding the day that
‘karma’ rolls into town. Centigrade garnered more than a dozen ‘Best of’ Awards and Nominations and ended up making the short list for an Academy Award Nomination.
Now, the multi-award-winning short film (one of the most successful in iTunes history) is ready to take the leap forward as a major motion picture. Only this time, they’re doing things a little differently.
"The project had actually been optioned by MGM as a TV show,” says Cunningham. “But restructuring at the studio sent it into turn-around. So, now, we’re going straight to the fans.”

Scott Zakarin Shares the Innovation of the New 'Rush It Network' & Its Online Interconnected Content
Scott Zakarin, creator of the first web series in 1995, The Spot, introduces a groundbreaking new online entertainment platform called Rush It Network, bringing a new spin to digital network connected content. Zakarin introduces Rush It as a Content Connected Network (Ccn), creating a spider web effect of content connectivity that organically intersects characters, brands and storylines throughout each channel and vlog on the network. The network's newly launched dramedy The SpinOffs, serves as the initial hub of all network storylines, where all characters are created. The SpinOffs speaks to Rush It’s innovation that thrives on audience participation, offering viewers a platform to give advice and feedback that affects what happens to their favorite characters in real-time. In return, characters engage and respond to viewers to create a social community that goes beyond the shows.
Rush It Network also welcomes collaboration by inviting social media stars of Youtube, Vine, Periscope, Instagram and other popular networks to act alongside the SpinOffs cast of characters and then creating new "spin-off" channels out of popular collaborations. Current channels set to launch in early Summer 2015, include a "fly on the wall" reality format series of shows starring Big Brother and Amazing Race stars Rachel Reilly and Brendon Villegas called After Reality.
Pioneering new forms of online storytelling is nothing new for Scott Zakarin, who created the first interactive entertainment web series, when he introduced The Spot in 1995, which became the inaugural recipient of Infoseek’s “Cool Site of the Year,” (“Webby” Award).
Zakarin went on to create several transmedia platforms, including GrapeJam.com, the first interactive “sit.com” that featured live improvisational sketches and streaming radio broadcasts, earning him a nod from People Magazine. He also created Fish Bowl, which went on to become a TV show for the E! Network.
Over the last 20 years, Zakarin's digital platforms have garnered over 2 billions views and counting.
Zakarin shares his experience, inspiration and more about The Rush It Network:
"The World Wide Web was young. I was 26 and had just moved from New York as a writer and director. I got into marketing, and wanted to know how to get my work recognized by Hollywood and tell stories I wanted to tell. I just wanted to make a show, and I basically started in the AOL chat rooms by inventing characters. I started with eight people at once, and I noticed that men are kind of stupid," Zakarin jokes. "It's easy to manipulate us in real-time, but it’s even easier to create an engaging character online. Being a man, I know what they’re interested in. I did it very PG 13, don’t get me wrong, but I started to dream about specific characters. For instance, when I created Cara for The Spot, I literally looked at the people working around me, saw my pretty 23 year old assistant and thought, she's perfect, she's Cara and then I cast her."
As far as my first show was concerned, The Spot, I had a dream about these characters and where they lived. I woke up, and started writing down notes and told my wife about it the next morning.
When I started doing this medium, the advertising agency that I was shooting commercials for, Fattal & Colins, got very interested and then got behind it. This was 1995. We got popular immediately. At the time, we used the message boards to seed it, and got a surprisingly large audience.
I also stayed up all night just talking to people, getting a handle on what they were looking for and getting them excited about what was going to happen the next day. Those numbers did well, and then we got on to Infoseek’s 'cool site of the year' – and if you got onto that, your numbers got relatively big. I received 125,000 page views that day.
The format that turned me on, and there’s some of it in every show that I do, is the Rashoman form of storytelling – this means having different characters with their individual worlds, but together these characters make up a bigger story. Now, as with The Rush It Network, it’s mostly through video. That was most interesting.
Writers started to approach me, and say, “We want to do a web network, so we can own the rights to our characters. We just want to make short videos that we couldn’t make on television."
Zakarin continues, "My feeling was why stop there. Why not make an ecosystem?"
And now Zakarin has taken this idea of the ecosystem and interactive storytelling into the Rush It Network. He elaborates:
"The SpinOffs is a narrative comedy soap opera. The characters spread out, and then they meet real people. My network is built on spin-offs and crossovers. Sometimes real characters enter into the fictional world, and fictional characters enter into the real world," Zakarin explains.
"The talent are more relatable – they handle their own social media and guide the characters's voice. There are so many celebrities who handle social media by have other people put out their message. Our characters do it themselves and in real time, which is where a lot of entertainment is heading.
At this very moment, we’re building out the show. It continues to only go up in numbers. We try to create very compelling shows that attract an audience. The first show with the Rush It Network was The SpinOffs and now we’re starting to roll out and announce our next set of spin-offs and collaborations, where the characters have "spun" off into their own shows, whether it’s Openly Jake, Unhinged Comedy, or whatever, each character's voice determines the direction of the new channel," Zakarin continues.
"On Big Brother, and Amazing Race, there are always a few people who jump up and become more famous than the rest. So we did a wedding scene on The SpinOffs, where two of our male characters were married by reality star, Rachel Reilly, an ordained minister. The fans went crazy and started writing back to us saying things like, 'I want Rachel to marry me!' so we’ve starting a new channel with her and her husband, Brendon, called, After Reality, which launches in a few weeks.
Another thing we’re doing with Rush It is making seven second videos and working heavily with Vine star collaborations. A lot of these Vine stars have a huge fan base because they're talented and hilarious. We’ll help them take what they have, and bring in our actors and our cameras and create crossover channel on our network.
For me, it’s about innovation paired with good storytelling. Before, I really had to be dedicated because there was no financial model, but finally things are changing. Now there are signs of money. There are the Youtube millionaires and advertisers that have started to come in giving us more to work with in terms of content and production value.
We’re airing one episode of The SpinOffs per week, and bringing in lots of new content. We’re inviting creative people to come play in our garden.
My hope is to get a big enough audience to be so interactively involved in our shows that they would be fully involved in creating the stories. We are establishing new forms of audience engagement to give the audience an entertainment experience like no other."

Lloyd Kaufman
By Scott Zakarin
(April 2011)
Lloyd Kaufman is a scoundrel to the studio system, a rebel to the film festival independents and a hero to the filmmakers who don’t fit into the models that are general accepted as what movies are supposed to be. His production company Troma Entertainment (co-founded with partner Michael Herz) has been making movies with titles like “The Toxic Avenger,” “Class of Nuke ’Em High” and “Tromeo and Juliet” for almost 40 years.
The films have one thing in common: They are fun. Kaufman’s films don’t take themselves too seriously. Instead, they celebrate true independence, where the boundaries of what is considered acceptable has no bounds. A graduate of Yale University, Kaufman is fiercely intelligent and incredibly driven, and despite his outlier status, he has an incredible track record of profitable releases.

Happy Valentine’s Day! To celebrate, we revisit some of the scenes that still make us swoon. Some are obvious (Charlie Chaplin, Bogey and Bacall), some not so much (“Harold and Maude”?). And we discovered that the most romantic movie moments aren’t necessarily always found in romantic movies — you’ll find thrillers, sports movies and science fiction among our selections, as well as plenty of romances. Check out our picks and let us know what your most romantic movie moment is in the comment section below.
“Sense and Sensibility” (1995)
Directed by: Ang Lee
Starring: Hugh Grant and Emma Thompson
Near the end of “Sense and Sensibility,” Edward Ferrars (Hugh Grant) pays a visit to Elinor Dashwood (Emma Thompson). Grant’s doing his best fumbling Englishman — fiddling with the ornaments on the mantelpiece — while Thompson’s trying to hold it all together, believing he is already married to someone else.

It was Dec. 15, 1978. I was on line at the theater at the Sunrise Mall in Long Island, N.Y., for what I hoped would be the best movie I ever saw.
The Richard Donner-directed “Superman: The Movie” was already expected to be big. It had been hyped and hyped again, until the comic-book geeks were far outnumbered by the mainstream audience who had claimed the movie as their own. In those days, the Christmas blockbuster was just becoming a thing; in fact, this was also the first movie to go up to $4 a ticket, which was justified by the size of the experience and cost of production. Somehow that must have made sense to the audience because they lined up in droves.
For me it was never a question. I bought every magazine that featured the relatively unknown actor Christopher Reeve on the cover. He was...
