<![CDATA[Hello, Update: This group has had 8 meetings so far with 3 people attending. There's still room for a few more! I would like to be a part of a group of conscious mindful inspirational writers, who would like to share their work with other like-minded people who who may go on to do public conscious poetry/prose readings. Artists who meditate and contemplate changes from the inside out. Artists who now speak in a calmer-wiser voice, though the urgency for change is still there. Writers who are still activists, and want to speak in their voice of inspiration, not intimidation. I would like to be in a group that is heart-centered, supportive, collaborative, inspirational, and productive. I also want to be in a responsible and respectful group that makes group decisions, as opposed to having a pyramid leader dynamic. I practice meditation, mindfulness, compassionate communication (nvc), and have strong leanings towards Zen and Tibetan Buddhist teachings. I'm down to earth and want to contribute through my writing in a peaceful, loving, respectful way. I've been a writer since childhood, am currently writing a book, and couldn't imagine life without writing! Many moons ago, my writing voice had a different tone, one that reflected where I was at the time. I like many other poets sounded out my anger about what I saw around me. It felt good at the time, to be dialed in to change. I still see the need for change. The voice I need to express now is a calmer voice, an inspirational voice, a supportive voice. If this resonates with you, please contact me. If you'd like me to contact you please write to me about your writing and leave me your number. Warmly, Jeannie ]]>

<![CDATA[You know, most folks don't regularly buy original artwork from a gallery at the drop of a hat/tiara...especially when doing so means the family dog has to take up nights at the local supermarket just so you can pay the bills AND have some nice home decor. Hold on though! Before you go slappin' a bow tie and a folded paper hat on your pooch and kick him out the door (regardless of how sharp he may look baggin' those groceries), take note of this fine piece of news! I am offering original pen and ink drawings to anyone who wants one for a mere $20. I have loads of brand new Sharpies and I literally can't wait to chisel down the tips to dull, useless nubs while I etch out a personalized character drawing from my overactive imagination just for you! This batch of drawings will likely make their way into a nice photoset on Flickr too so people can see how these are turning out! I really appreciate all the fine and talented artists and creative folks who check out what I post here, and I'd love for all of you to be able to easily afford one of my original creations to hang in your living space. When you email me, i'll send you a Paypal invoice. Once I get payment, I will pop off that Sharpie tip and get to work! I will send you an email note when your drawing is in the post so you can camp out by the mailbox! There will be an added $6.00 shipping fee for domestic orders. International readers, shipping will be handled on a one by one basis. Send all $20 drawing requests to 20dollardrawings@gmail.com <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-rzkpWTtO2A/SpPx4d9lVQI/AAAAAAAACKg/S8EafOD2Ldc/s1600-h/opensketcbook.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-rzkpWTtO2A/SpPx4d9lVQI/AAAAAAAACKg/S8EafOD2Ldc/s320/opensketcbook.jpg"></a> Please check out the ever growing gallery of these drawings on my <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/thegrossuncle/sets/72157622321426528/" rel="nofollow">Flickr page!</a>]]>

<![CDATA[I'm currently working on a screenplay and seem to be missing that little piece of self-discipline to keep me on the path to finishing it before my ADD ravages my entire being. If anyone else is in the same position I think it would be beneficial to meet on a regular basis and set goals for each other to get it done as well as provide feedback and possibly go in together on some software to format it (Final Draft, Montage, etc). I'm working on a very indie-style talker that I'm very proud of and has a lot of potential, and I'm well-versed on structure and formatting (this is my 5th full-length and hopefully "the one"). Anyone like that out there? I have no major preferences other than that you live in SF, you're serious, you're friendly and you're not a nutjob. Let me know and let's motivate the s*it out of each other! ]]>

<![CDATA[Michael Grimaldi Portrait Painting workshop August 23-September 3, 2010 A ten day Portrait Painting & Drawing in Grisaille workshop A thorough understanding of the visual experience, the ability to apply one’s 3-dimensional experience to a 2-dimensional surface, and curiosity into the psychology of the sitter is essential for anyone wishing to translate these elements to the picture plane. Separating these elements, thoroughly studying them independently, and re-constructing them, combining other elements to create a well unified painting will foster the student's ability to perceive the visual experience with intelligence, apply this knowledge to their work, and cultivate an ability to problem solve and auto-correct through the process of building a painting in oil or a drawing in grisaille. Instruction will be in the form of intensive, daily demonstrations and individual critique. hosted by Bay Area Classical Artist Atelier For more information and to register go to bacaa.org info@bacaa.org Bay Area Classical Artist Atelier www.BACAA.org ]]>

This course will explore and improve an array of skills in each participant, justify assembling an effective visual strategy, and help each person produce a beautiful example. The class is open to those who prefer to draw, and to advanced as well as beginning painters. After an initial day of practice and intelligible design, a 9 day pose will be painted in partially in grisaille (monochromatic tones) and partially in full color, in order to forge a working process to deal with gesture, proportion, shape, structure, plane and morphological details in and light upon human form. Color painting will complete the piece, in either a controlled palette or full color, light-effect based palette. A lecture to further clarify shape, structure, plane and morphology will accompany the experience.

<![CDATA[I am renting half of the studio space in my live/work loft in Oakland. The basics: - About 150 sq. ft (your side, that is) - wireless internet (Cable broadband). - The huge amazing work table shown in the pictures (optional -- I can remove it if you have other plans). - Seven blocks from Fruitvale BART. - Use of my kitchen, bathroom, comfy couch etc. The opposite-of-basics: - I spend as much time hoarding and displaying art supplies as I do making art and you would be most welcome to plunder at will. Part of my motivation for renting the space (besides the cashola) is because it seems a shame that I am the only person who gets to enjoy my OCDiculous art playground. In particular if you do anything with beads or small pretty objects of any kind, you will be in heaven (which is to say, a bead store where everything is free). - I also have a semi-professional photography studio on the premises and if you are nice to me I will help you document your work. Let me know if you are interested! The space is available now. Price is $250/mo - month-to-month. The building is behind a secured gate and you would have pretty much 24h access (I do live upstairs, but I'm chill about comings and goings). - Mike p.s. 1: If you are curious, check me out at... <a href="http://mikecantor.net" rel="nofollow">http://mikecantor.net</a> ]]>

Please call or email us for one of our free introductory classes today. Scene-Monologue Study Stanislavski - Method?? Don't worry about what it's called, work on being believable, interesting, and exciting to watch!" - C.A. This class is necessary to evolve as an actor and strengthen your performing skills. We help you select and develop suitable monologues for presentation to agents and theatrical auditions. Also, actors will perform contemporary and classical scenes with partners. All geared to raise your acting ability above the norm. Charles knows how to get actors over the top quickly, helping to find that key element, turning average performances into paid performances. Included in the many things taught in this class are, line by line script analyses, arcs/beats, internalization, characterization, believability, blocking, creating your environment, and drawing your audience in. On-Camera Class "It is vital for an actor to understand the difference between stage and camera work especially in the audition process!" - C.A. In this class we tape our students, play them back on television and critique their performance. It is important for the actor to see how they present themselves on screen. Actors must also understand the major differences between stage and film work, and the art of acting and the audition process. Only after mastering on-camera and scene-monologue work can actors appreciate how both forms integrate. Students work alone, in pairs and in groups doing scenes and mimicking real auditions preparing them to land those jobs! The many things studied in this class include cold readings, commercial work, improvisation, auditioning techniques, script analyses and slating. We also teach the complete business application including headshots, resumes, portfolios, agents, casting directors, self-promotion, unions, the audition process, principles, featured extras, and extras. ]]>

Her "found object" aesthetic prevents her from manipulating the scene either before or after the capture.

You may see her work in local galleries and she has private collectors worldwide. / www.trishtunney.com Ian Padgham is the Marketing & Communications Assistant at SF Museum of Modern Art and created the brilliance behind the SFOMA’s media program using Twitter, Facebook, etc. Twice he has posted the top video on YouTube.

<![CDATA[I am: a video artist, photographer and musician - spending my time trying to create as much new media as possible! Looking for: Anyone interested in collaborating on new media project(s). Currently working all angles of my media skills for freelance work right now... There have been many times I wished there was someone else to help with the job, someone to partner or people to team with - a production team is capable of so much more greatness, as opposed to one person alone [no matter how skillful they may be] and because of that a production team is worth more $$$ as opposed to a single freelancer but its not all about the $$$ its also about breaking boundaries, and creating new and imaginative things, to entertain and inspire the world. We have a lot to learn from one another! if you are an actor, actress, animator, activist, musician, photographer, scientist, journalist, conversationalist, inventor, model, dancer, contortionist, fire breather, painter, acrobat, clowns, magician, comedian, writer, poets, illustrators, or shape-shifter. please reply to this ad with an e-mail subject: CREATE! and then tell me a little bit about what you do, and maybe what you are looking for in a collaboration.

<![CDATA[A partner and I are starting a web-based account service and we want the landing page to display a 2 minute 30 second animated video explaining the service and sign up procedure. We're pulling inspiration from www.dropbox.com, www.grouponworks.com and 350.org (though ours will have voice) We're seeking someone who is proficient with After Effects, Apple Motion, Flash or Stop Motion. At this point we're open to considering different animated styles. Ideally we're seeking a talented recent graduate who is looking to build a professional resume. As our start up budget is tight, we can offer to pay an upfront stipend with a contract that will pay market rate hourly plus a premium as the business gets off the ground (3-6 months) with the animation. We're willing to pay a premium for waiting the trade off is just the wait. If you're interested in talking about it and can send me some examples of your work, I'd love to schedule a time to get together or talk, I can show you the script and animation cues, plus give some more in depth info on our business model. Thanks very much, Matt ]]>

<![CDATA["Andrew is the real deal! I've been around professional theater and film acting for 10 years, my daughter is a professional actor, I've been in all the major Los Angeles studios and up close watching directors work with actors as they film scenes for highly rated TV shows. What Andrew is teaching is the most effective training and directing I've ever seen. Andrew has the knowledge, experience, and practice to help any actor improve and succeed in acting. Andrew is gifted at helping you (the actor) find your way to communicating and connecting with your scene environment, your scene partner, and ultimately your audience. His class requires hard work because that's what it takes to be good at the craft of acting. A significant out of class rehearsal and development effort is needed if you're going to get the most out of the class. Like high performing athletes, the performance time is really just where you show everyone what you've been doing in practice, so lots of rehearsal time is required. That's just the reality of doing anything well. I will take his class again!---Bill Fehr, Actor Because a killer instinct is a terrible thing to waste..

<![CDATA[The 12th Annual Tim Brauch Memorial Skateboard Contest in conjunction with Sessions is looking for artists to display their work at this event. The contest is being held on Sunday, October 3rd at the Lake Cunningham Regional Skate Park in San Jose. This contest is part of the World Cup of Skateboarding and is bound to bring out the legends and the pros of skateboarding, as well as draw big crowds. This is a great opportunity to show off your work! A little about the contest… Tim Brauch, a Sessions team rider, was always true to his roots as a skateboarder and possessed a positive attitude that did nothing less than inspire friends, family, and the community around him. Tim’s untimely passing in 1999 at the age of 25, led Sessions to create the Tim Brauch Memorial Fund, which donates 100% of its funds towards skateboard park development and scholarships. If interested, please CONTACT contests@sessions.com and include your name, contact information, and portfolio or picture of your artwork. Please reply by Friday, September 10th. Thanks! ]]>
