We stumbled upon this through our tumblr page and after taking the less than three minutes to watch it…we were totally enamoured by the complexity of this video beneath it’s utter simplicity and commend The Dutch website for being so far ahead of the game. The website may be hard to read unless you speak...
While recently blogjogging (yes we coined that phrase years ago), we came across this incredible short film by Kenneth Anger. It is mind boggling to know that it was created light years ago in 1947 at a time when homosexuality was wildly illegal and is a poignant piece of gay cinematic history as well...
“Why Obama Now” is a newly created animated short about the Economy and the 2012 Election by Lucas Gray, the animator for The Simpsons and Family Guy.

ACT UP is calling on local, state, and federal legislators to “give Wall Street the FiST,” which is needed to fill AIDS funding gaps and — once and for all — provide universal healthcare in the US. It’s time for effective healthcare to be made available to everyone — to the 99%, not just the...
Chauncey Chat with BAGLY’s Director of Development, Kurtlan Massarsky After much back and forth amidst the scheduling obstacles that exist between two busy men, Chauncey was finally able to tie longtime friend and fellow philanthropist Kurtlan Massarsky down to have a chat.

It’s the interview that almost never happened. Batz lives in the neighborhood where Chauncey works (his day job) and the two see each other pretty often…but scheduling a time when the two could properly sit down and have a casual chat was the most difficult part. Finally we have the latest Chauncey Chat with...

Alas, the season of Christmas for 2011 is just about over as soon as it began. You may have heard rants about it coming too early as local drugstores and retail chains barely waited until Halloween was over before reds, golds and greens replaced the ghosts and goblins and costumes on their shelves. ...
we apologize for the long wait between visits to the peliculatorium here on h.o.d. tv but this wouldn’t be the first time a column ran for a decent amount of time and then fell by the wayside. but enough about that…we have compiled a collection of short films and even shorter films or teasers for...
