Summer "Research" Hiatus

Submitted by Mike Bonanno on July 29, 2010 - 10:34pm

We apologize for the lack of new content this summer. We needed some down time because we are circling the wagons in preparation for a full-scale launch of The Yes Lab this coming autumn. We are still in the process of releasing our new film, which is now available on DVD, iTunes, and Goodscreenings.org. We are still booking live events: email us if interested. We are still fielding inquiries from groups who want to join the Yes Lab. We are also looking for someone to help run the Yes Lab... so if you happen to be really good at running organizations drop us a line.

Our new DVD, the "Yes Lab," and plenty of news

Submitted by Andy Bichlbaum on March 30, 2010 - 6:35pm

Here's a chatty April Fools' season update:

Our DVD comes out in two days (no joke), and you can: buy it, organize your own screening with it, use it as a fundraising tool, etc. (see below).

We flack our DVD!

Submitted by Andy Bichlbaum on March 17, 2010 - 3:29pm

New Yorkers! Here's a little series of local events we'll be involved in, starting today. They're interesting in themselves, but to top it off, we'll be using them to shamelessly flack our brand-spanking-new DVD, which is available in stores April 1 (and before then, from us directly). It comes with over 80 minutes of out-takes, weird old films we made a decade ago, and so on and so forth. Buy it from our site, and you'll get a free copy of the New York Times Special Edition as well.
