Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

Check out this interesting making of for the short film "Breaking the Rules" about the morphological adjustment among flowers and their pollinators is an essential component of life in ecosystems. This leads to one of the most beautiful mutualisms in nature: pollination by animals. Flowers provide energetic nectar to visitors, which in return carry the pollen from one flower to another, helping the plant in reproduction. However, there are floral visitors whose body does not match the morphology of the flower. Unable to access the precious nectar, the potential pollinators turn in to robbers and make a hole in the corolla tube where they can extract the nectar. This usually damages the flower, but sometimes a clumsy robber can inadvertently pollinate the flower...

It’s a person-sized platform with a low friction, grooved base that allows users to walk or run in place. That real life movement translates directly into any keyboard-compatible game. Used in tandem with the Oculus Rift and motion controllers like the Razer Hydra, it potentially offers a previously unseen degree of realistic virtual reality gaming.

It also boasts health benefits, offering a more active way to game than sitting around holding a mouse or controller. It is also fully adjustable and breaks down like exercise equipment for easy transport or storage.

The first feature film from comedy leaders CollegeHumor, Coffee Town is an updated workplace comedy for the generation that works out of coffee shops. Will (Glenn Howerton) is a 30-something website manager who uses a local café, Coffee Town, as his office. When the owners of the shop discuss plans to convert Coffee Town into a bar, Will enlists the help of his two best friends Chad and Gino (Steve Little and Ben Schwartz) to save his freeloading existence. In order to thwart the plans of Coffee Town's owners, the trio stages a robbery to create the illusion of an unsafe neighborhood not suitable for the proposed venue. Also standing in their way is Sam (Josh Groban), a disgruntled barista with delusions of rock star grandeur, and Will's heartache over unrequited love for Becca (Adrianne Palicki).
