SoundWorks Collection has been publishing videos to Vimeo.com to give not just some behind-the-scenes peeks, but insight into the efforts taken in sound design. By my estimation their efforts are quite lengthy and employ top-notch use of the world’s open spaces, objects, devices, you name it, in sound capture to give audiences the director’s intended overall experience.

“There are so many misperceptions about sound for film. SoundWorks Collection helps de-mystify the art, and show how pros in the trenches are really doing it. An incredible resource. I’m shocked there was nothing like it until now.” -Erik Aadahl, Supervising Sound Editor “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen”

This is an awesome initiative that I think places SoundWorks Collection way ahead of the game in how they are taking advantage of social media–simply put!

So below are two very current works in theaters now: Inception and Salt.

The iPhone 4 Bumper program launched on Apple.com today and you can either select your iPhone bumper through iPhone 4 Case Program (click to download) app or get your refund. Luckily, those who paid with a Credit or Debit card can verify the status of their refund–which is sent back to the account automatically. I verified mine but it could take up to one billing cycle to see the refund. Oy! >.<

Gladly I’m not in need of this, but I most certainly get and appreciate the humor in this.

Lovingly made by Aaron Dra-blah-blah. I’m kidding Aaron. …Just in case you see this post. It’s Aaron Drazcynski. Check out his site: www.papermodelplane.com.

I learned of this thanks to my friend Jason Dunn on Facebook.

It’s not what you think, but is, but not. You’ll see. And don’t worry it isn’t vulgar.

If there is anything that will make me want an iPad it is because of amazing apps like this one. More importantly, I hope to see actual magazines begin to take up an approach like this. On that note, I think that Flipboard may be onto something that magazines may want to get into through their iPad application. Why stop at Social Media?

There isn’t much that I can say here because the video makes it abundantly clear! Let me know what you think?

Thanks to @kevinrose‘s tweet that lead me to laughingsquid.com> then clusterflock.org> eventually lead me to passiveagressivenotes.com. I was able to see what this note was really all about and having reached it’s source site, the image is all the more funny.
