• Dan spent several days covering the International Toy Fair at the Javits Center with 343 Industries – the team at Microsoft behind Halo Waypoint – and had a blast with Jessica and John, shooting interviews about many of the awesome Halo-related toys out there.
• We produced a new video for Cancer Research Institute of their Breakthroughs at Breakfast panel, held at the Harvard Club of New York on February 8. Fascinating stuff about how immunotherapy is changing the definition of “cure” in cancer treaments.
• We worked with the Center for Public Scholarship at the New School to document their conference, The Body and The State. You can watch the keynote and sessions from all three days on The New School for Social Research’s playlist on YouTube.
• Chris Burke helped us out with a shoot of India’s Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao speaking at the India China Institute about interactions between those two countries. Here’s the video of that great talk.
• A new video is underway for a new client, PELIE, highlighting the outcomes of a recent meeting on their NESS program – Nurturing Effectiveness in Synagogue Schools – in Philadelphia and the Bay Area.
• We helped the League of Professional Theatre Women digitize and publish online six more videos in their Women in Theatre television series.
• We’ve been doing behind the scenes work on a new project we can’t say much about yet except that it makes us laugh, and that’s a good thing.
• Our office got some major and much needed upgrades – we painted, installed lots of new shelves, and got a new Mac Pro!

And tonight, our last event of the month, is The Military-Industrial Complex Revisited: Eisenhower’s Warning at 50 at The New School. This event will also be webcast live from 7-9 PM EST.

More exciting things are in store for March – as always, you can keep up with us on Twitter and Facebook, where we post links to our whereabouts and to videos once they’re online!

Check out the entire festival schedule here, where you can also watch a live stream of the festival on Sunday if you’re not in New York but would like to check it out.

RE/Mixed Media Festival, Sunday, May 30: 2 PM-midnight (Dan Winckler and C-tor at 11:30 PM)

Galapagos Art Space, 16 Main Street in DUMBO, Brooklyn

We’re working on the video of the site launch presentation and will post a link as soon as it’s ready, but in the meantime, check out BestSmallBizHelp.com. It’s a great resource for anyone who runs a small business and needs some (or a lot of) help, as well as for those who have a business idea they want to bring to life.

Other exhibitors, all of whom are FastTrac graduates like us, offer services ranging from catering to printing, investment services to interior design, event planning to insurance to career coaching (and those are just a few examples). This event is a great way to learn about New York based businesses and support the local economy.

We first became connected to the Levin Institute this past winter when we participated in FastTrac Growth Venture course offered by Levin and supported by NYC Business Solutions. This course really helped us with our business development — a challenge for just about every small business — and introduced us to an awesome network.
