Hi Guys,
Rebecca here... can you believe it? How fun is this!! I had such a blast. It was like getting ready for the prom or something. I was excited and nervous but honestly, I was surprised at how comfortable I felt once the cameras were rolling. Making weekly videos for you guys has provided a great training ground for me. I hope you will set your DVR's to watch the actual segment when it airs the weekend of April 29, 2012.
For 3 years now, I have been reading your comments encouraging me to have my own show.... well, this is not my own show, but it's a step in that direction ;-) Thanks for all the amazing support as my loyal subscribers and friends. I plan to keep making videos for you, no matter where my path might take me... I love teaching you, inspiring you and motivating you to do more, be more and have a more beautiful living space than you ever dreamed possible!
For now, keep watching here and wish me luck as I step out into the big world of Television ......thanks for watching!
Rebecca

The Art of Film & TV Title Design | Off Book | PBS
The credits are often the first thing we see when we watch a great film or TV show, but the complexity and artistry of title design is rarely discussed. Creators of title sequences are tasked to invent concepts that evoke the core story and themes of the production, and to create a powerful visual experience that pulls the viewer into the film's world. In this episode we hear the stories of some of the most inventive people working in the field, including the creators of the iconic Mad Men sequence, the hilarious Zombieland opening and "rules" sequences, and the stirring end credits from Blue Valentine.

Peter Frankfurt and Karin Fong, Imaginary Forces

State-of-the-art 340PS 3.0-litre LR-V6 supercharged petrol engine now available to order on all-new Range Rover
Advanced supercharged powertrain delivers smooth and effortless performance with exceptional torque, achieving 0-60mph in 7.1 seconds (0-100km/h in 7.4 seconds)
Downsized, high-efficiency design offers enhanced sustainability, with CO2 emissions of 254g/km - 15 percent reduction over 5.0-litre LR-V8 naturally aspirated engine
LR-V6 unit engineered from the outset to support full Range Rover capability, including extreme off-road tilt angles, wading and towing
The highly-acclaimed all-new Range Roveris offering customers increased powertrain choice with the introduction of the advanced new LR-V6 supercharged petrol engine.
The state-of-the-art 340PS 3.0-litre V6 supercharged combines effortless performance and exceptional refinement with enhanced fuel efficiency, and provides an attractive new engine choice for key global markets which favour smaller capacity petrol engines.
"The all-new Range Rover has received a tremendous reception in the marketplace, and this exciting new V6 supercharged engine will broaden its appeal still further," said John Edwards, Land Rover Global Brand Director. "It combines the desirability of the world's finest luxury SUV, with the enhanced sustainability offered by this advanced downsized petrol engine."
The engine's advanced supercharged design is ideally suited to the all-new Range Rover, delivering smooth, seamless performance with generous torque throughout the rev range.
Paired with the slick and responsive eight-speed automatic transmission, the 3.0-litre V6 supercharged offers drivers an effortless and confident drive, reaching 60mph from rest in just 7.1 seconds (100km/h in 7.4 seconds).
The downsized V6 supercharged engine features Land Rover's intelligent Stop/Start* system to help significantly enhance fuel efficiency. With CO2 emissions of 254g/km, the LR-V6 supercharged achieves a 15 percent reduction over the 5.0-litre LR-V8 naturally aspirated.
From the outset, the new engine has been engineered to support the Range Rover's full breadth of capability, including extreme off-road tilt angles up to 45 degrees, wading depth of 900mm and towing weight up to 3,500kg.
The LR-V6 engine is now available to order in key markets worldwide, with customer deliveries scheduled to commence in the third quarter of this year.
State-of-the-art V6 engine design
The 3.0-litre LR-V6 supercharged petrol engine has been developed by Land Rover powertrain experts from the award-winning 5.0-litre LR-V8 unit which has successfully powered the latest generation of Range Rover models.
The 3.0 V6 supercharged shares many of the V8's key technologies including direct injection, variable valve timing and aluminium construction. It offers comparable levels of refinement and driveability to the naturally-aspirated version of the V8 engine, but with greater specific output and efficiency courtesy of supercharging technology.
Land Rover engineers are established leaders in the field of high-efficiency supercharger systems, following their experience with the supercharged 5.0-litre LR-V8 engine.
"This new V6 draws upon the advanced technology of our V8 design to create a highly efficient, downsized power unit," said Ron Lee, Director of Powertrain Engineering, Land Rover. "Supercharging has enabled us to deliver the effortless, refined performance which has become a distinguishing character of Range Rover engines."
With a peak output of 340PS at 6,500rpm, the 3.0-litre LR-V6 supercharged has been developed to offer exceptionally strong torque throughout the engine speed range, producing maximum torque of 450Nm between 3,500 and 5,000rpm.
The new quad-cam V6 shares its all-aluminium construction with the V8, with the lightweight die-cast block supplemented with cross-bolted main bearing caps to increase rigidity and therefore refinement. The four-valve cylinder heads are constructed of recycled aluminium.
The valves themselves are subject to control by a dual independent variable cam timing (DIVCT) system which is activated by the positive and negative torques generated by the movement of the intake and exhaust valves. This variable timing system features actuation rates of more than 150 degrees per second throughout the rev range, to optimise power, torque and economy at all engine speeds.

The new sixth-generation Quattroporte will be revealed at the Detroit motor show in January 2013, production started in November 2012.[17] The new model has been designed at a special Maserati-only department within the Fiat Group Centro Stile design centre, under the guidance of ex-Pininfarina designer Lorenzo Ramaciotti. It will be built at the old Bertone plant, on the outskirts of Turin. The launch engine will be a petrol V8 producing 530 hp (395 kW). It will be mated to a ZF-supplied 8-speed automatic gearbox.
The Maserati Quattroporte is a luxury four-door saloon made by Maserati in Italy. The name translated from Italian literally means "four doors". There have been five generations of the car, each separated by a period of roughly seven years.
The Quattroporte IV from 1994 was a restyled and updated version of the 430, the four-door version of the Biturbo coupe. It was designed by Marcello Gandini, also known for penning the Lamborghini Countach, Urraco, Espada, Miura, Lancia Stratos, and Bugatti EB110. The new car was smaller, very aerodynamic (0.31 cd), and featured Gandini's trademark angular rear wheel arch.
The Duo Select transmission was available at the launch of the fifth generation Quattroporte, in 2004. Duo Select was an advancement of the CambioCorsa unit first used in the Maserati Coupe. It is a Ferrari based semi-automatic transmission, located at the rear of the car, with the clutch located in a bell housing attached to the rear of the engine.
The Executive GT version of the Quattroporte was introduced at the North American International Auto Show in January 2006. It is based on a special Neiman-Marcus version, with 19 inch ball-polished wheels and an alcantara suede interior roof lining. Other features include chrome side and front grilles and a wood-trimmed steering wheel. Included as standard equipment with the Executive GT version is a Maserati comfort pack with ventilated, heating, massaging rear seats, retractable wood rear tables, and curtain shades on the rear windows.

The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is a front-engine, 2-seat luxury grand tourer automobile developed by Mercedes-AMG to replace the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.[1] The car is the first Mercedes automobile designed in-house by AMG and is described by Mercedes-Benz as a spiritual successor to the Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing.[2] Mercedes presented at the 2012 Paris Motor Show an electric version of the car, named Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Electric Drive.[3]
The SLS AMG will be made in at least four different versions. The first to launch is the coupe with gullwing doors. In 2009 a Desert Gold version debuted at the Dubai International Auto Show, in mid-2010 a FIA-GT3 racing version. For 2011--2013 Mercedes will also be releasing a roadster (with conventional doors and a soft top), an electric powered E-Cell version (most likely to be a coupe), and there will be a Black Series version, which will see its weight being reduced by as much as 300 kg (661 lb).
The SLS AMG "Blackbird" was a unique, special edition SLS AMG created by Mercedes-Benz's Australian subsidiary specifically for the 2010 Australian International Motor Show.[13]
Powertrain
The SLS AMG Electric Drive will be powered by four electric motors with combined ratings of 552 kW (740 hp) and 1,000 N·m (740 lb·ft). Each motor can spin up to 13,000 rpm and weighs 45 kg (99 lb). In addition, the transmission allows each motor to selectively drive all 4 wheels. With this, the SLS AMG Electric Drive accelerates from standing still to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds.
Battery
The SLS AMG Electric Drive will include a liquid-cooled 400 V lithium-ion battery rated to 60 kWh. The 548 kg (1,210 lb) battery pack is made up of 12 modules, each comprising 72 lithium-ion cells. The system was designed as a collaboration between Mercedes-AMG and Mercedes AMG High Performance Powertrains Ltd.[14]
The SLS AMG Roadster was unveiled by Mercedes-Benz via press release on May 5, 2011. It retains the same specifications, dimensions and drivetrain as the Coupe but is a more traditional convertible with a power folding fabric top and conventional doors.[16] The roadster weighs only 40 kg (88 lb) more than the original SLS AMG coupe, and the top can be raised or lowered up to 31 mph (50 km/h).[17]
The SLS AMG is featured as the cover car for the PlayStation 3 racing game Gran Turismo 5, and is the safety car for the Formula One seasons from 2011 to present.[28]
The car was featured in the Top Gear Series 16 Premire, in which the three presenters use various sport cars to drive up a part of the east coast. Jeremy Clarkson brought along the car, praising virtually everything about the car (although he does mention that the doors are a bit excessive. Also in the Xbox 360 video game Forza Motorsport 4, Clarkson commented that "This is not just the greatest car Mercedes makes; right now, I think, it's the greatest car in the world."
The car is also used for the 2011 film Transformers: Dark of the Moon, as the Decepticon Soundwave.
A silver version of this car features in the television series The Cape, driven by Summer Glau in the second episode.
The SLS AMG Roadster is described by Jeremy Clarkson of Top Gear as being the best car in the world and is a huge fan of the car.
The SLS AMG Electric Drive is an upcoming electric version of the SLS AMG planned for release in June 2013.[14]
