 | Whether it's utilizing new techniques, telling a story in a novel way or focusing on a groundbreaking subject, filmmaking is a craft in which innovation takes center stage. So it's with great pleasure that we introduce a new round of films in the Screening Room, courtesy of Lexus, celebrating convention-breakers, thought-provokers and envelope-pushers.
To start, we've got four very different films. "Papiroflexia" (Spanish for "origami") is the animated tale of Fred, a chubby man with a passion for paper folding, who wants to change the world with his art. The documentary short "Kung Fu Wang" explores the life of a martial arts master whose real contribution to society is not what you think. In "Little Minx Exquisite Corpse: Cara," a less-than-glamorous actress in Los Angeles might not be exactly what producers are looking for, but why should something like that stand in the way? And in "Windowbreaker," a pair of young siblings build a home-alarm system to protect themselves against a group of neighborhood burglars.
Stay tuned because in two weeks, we'll have a new round of innovative shorts.

KarmaTube - the world is full of wonderful and inspiring stories, some unfolding in distant places and others right next door.

Our vision is to create and connect a global network of volunteers awake to capturing these stories, using simple digital video cameras. While the stories produced may be polished and professional or diamonds-in-the-rough, the crucial through-line is this: they celebrate the work of local change agents, demonstrating the ways "do something" moments can be "tipping point" experiences for individuals and communities. To complete the circle, KarmaTube offers three simple suggestions for ways to support the action and spirit shown in each video. KarmaTube is an evolving project of CharityFocus (and like CharityFocus, is all-volunteer run). We hope something here moves you to, as Gandhi advised, "be the change you wish to see in the world."

For a buck, you can show off your 15 seconds of excellence. 15 Seconds of Fame gives everyone a chance at their moment in the sun.

We believe anyone can be a star, be an idol and become internet famous. And we believe it's time to get paid! Best of all, we've compressed a whole season of a reality TV talent competitions down to just 3 short days." The concept is simple: record a 15 second video of your talent, upload and submit it to one of numerous contests, then wait and see if America loves you. Anyone can vote, and anyone (regardless if you've submitted to a contest or not) can make a profile. 15SOF provides an active, social, stimulating place to discover awesome talent and pitifully amusing lack of talent. Contests are designed to be fair, fun, interactive and lucrative for contestants. Your brother can submit a video of his worst wipeout, and that barbershop guy can show Adam Lambert what real vocal talent is. We make it easy for everyone and anyone to submit, view, vote and comment. All winners are determined solely by vote, meaning they're genuinely and honestly the most talented and entertaining people as chosen by America. There is an $1.00 upload fee for each audition you submit. However, you can submit up to 3 video auditions and 3 image auditions into any contests at once. Watching and voting is FREE
