Canoga Park, CA (PRWEB) November 30, 2009

ScifiGo Studios, an independent production studio announced today its entry into the 2010 Doritos ?Crash The Super Bowl? competition with its mini sci-fi epic, ?The Crunch Heard Across The Universe?. Created by LaMonte Fritts, an Academy of Art University visual effects student, ?The Crunch Heard Across The Universe? is a 30 second TV ad spot aimed at the culture of sci-fi, comics, video gaming and all things considered to be ?geeky?. Despite the culture of ?geekdom? and its association with disposable income and rabid consumerism, this niche audience is often ignored by advertisers during events like the NFL?s upcoming Super Bowl presentation.

Sleek, dynamic, and featuring the trademark components of a ?fanboy? fest, ?The Crunch Heard Across The Universe? showcases 30 seconds of eye-catching visual effects, CG animation, virtual landscapes, and a young tow-haired beauty cast in the commercial as a research scientist in quest of extra-terrestrial intelligence.

Developed as a high concept product spot, viewers of this sci-fi production will be astonished to learn that ?The Crunch Heard Across the Universe? was produced in its entirety on a total budget of less than $ 500 in less than 3 weeks. ScifiGo, producer of the upcoming series ?Chronicle of the Dead?, created this sci-fi spot utilizing the latest in DSLR HD movie technology, which enabled the production to shoot and navigate its green screen setups effectively and efficiently over an incredibly short shooting schedule of just less than 5 hours.

With nearly 4000 contestants participating in this year?s Doritos competition, ?The Crunch Heard Across The Universe? stands to be the only commercial aimed squarely at the ?geek? and sci-fi audiences while competing for the top spot in this year?s contest. Doritos is scheduled to announce its top 6 finalists on January 05, 2010.

Fort Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) January 27, 2010

According to Aaron Haviland, Sun Life Stadium Director of Operations, ?The ISS system has performed flawlessly since we implemented it last season at all our stadium?s events and has provided an invaluable tool to allow us to address problems as they occur or before they escalate. This easy and discreet way for fans to report fan conduct issues to the stadium is something we are committed to, and we?re pleased it will be used at the Pro Bowl and Super Bowl as well?.

The system can also be used as a way of sending important or emergency notifications to staff during the week of the Pro Bowl and Super Bowl.

ISS is the leading provider of fan text messaging systems to the sports and entertainment industry, now being used in over 60 venues nationwide including 12 NFL stadiums, over 25 NCAA institutions, 8 MLB venues, 12 NASCAR tracks, and several NBA and NHL venues. Their service is also expanding their reach into Amusement Parks, Convention Centers, Amphitheatres and venues of all sizes.

?We believe every facility, large and small, college or pro, should offer this service to their guests to quickly and discreetly send a text message for assistance for a variety of issues from unruly fan behavior to medical issues,? says Scott Meyers, VP Sales & Marketing for ISS. ?In the past, unless staff was right next to you, guests would have to get up out of their seats or walk a great distance from their location to get help. Our system solves these problems as help can now be requested within seconds and their issues quickly resolved?.

Several facilities and teams are now using the marketing component of the ISS platform which allows for text-to-win contests, interactive games and polls, and many other marketing capabilities all which lead to the building of permission-based databases which the venue can then use to sell tickets and merchandise or generate sponsorship revenue.

ISS now offers additional software solutions to help manage facilities including Incident Tracking and Computerized Maintenance Management Software. Also, hand-held 2-way communication devices are available that can be used to remotely log incidents and maintenance issues into the system.

“This first fully integrated solution will greatly increase any facility?s ability to effectively and efficiently manage any issues and incidents” says Mr. Meyers.

Woburn, MA (PRWEB) August 5, 2010

For BMEGateway, 2010 has been a special year to be recognized for 20 years of excellence.

BMEGateway?s Charity Golf Tournament was the final leg of the company?s Triple Crown. The first leg started in April with a great showing at the National RIMS Conference in Boston. The second followed in May with the Educational Symposium that featured top speakers from the medical and insurance arenas. These two events brought the company positive national recognition as a leader in the medical services industry, and enabled BMEGateway to give back to their client base in the form of education.

The third leg of the ?Triple Crown? represented giving back to the community in the form of a Charity Golf Tournament.

The 16th annual BMEGateway Charitable Golf Tournament was held at Hopkinton Country Club on July 19, 2010. Spirits were high as a challenging and fun day of golf was on the menu for the one hundred plus golfers who participated. There were insurance executives, risk managers, physicians, and other professionals on hand to join former Patriots Hall of Famer and NFL great Ben Coates; Red Sox greats Rico Petrocelli and Bob Stanley; and Yankee great Mike Pagliarulo. The celebrities were engaging and smiles dominated the day for participants.

John C. Addonizio, BMEGateway?s Chief Executive Officer had positive remarks regarding the event. ?It was a wonderful day; people were in a great mood and they were very generous. We had a perfect setting with raffle prizes and sports collectables. The BMEGateway Charitable Foundation will benefit two charities: The Make-A-Wish Foundation and The Cure for Mitochondria Disease.

The Primary Charity has always been the Make A Wish Foundation. We really enjoy helping a cause dedicated to deserving children in need of a wish. This year, we added the Cure for Mitochondria as a co-charity. This charity helps find a cure for kids with a rare and lesser known disease that can be deadly for the affected. We had supported this charity over the past five years but decided to step up our involvement in an effort to have people become more aware of this serious disease. As a company we enjoy being able to help out such deserving causes.?

BMEGateway is a management services organization established in 1990 to provide legal insurance business and other entities direct access to multi-specialty examiners and reviewers with expertise in conducting independent medical examinations, peer review, medical bill review and case management and consultative services.

About the College Football Performance Awards:

The purpose of the College Football Performance Awards is to provide the most scientifically rigorous conferments in college football. Recipients are selected exclusively based upon objective scientific rankings of the extent to which individual players increase the overall effectiveness of their teams.

As prominent scholars from a wide variety of disciplines note, CFPA eliminates the politics and biases that vitiate balloting-based awards. Furthermore, CFPA is the only awards organization to receive praise from both Republican and Democratic White House officials for promoting objectivity and fairness in college football.

?CFPA is for fans and players demanding equity in the awards process,? states National Security Agency science consultant Amy Langville. ?CFPA has a clear methodology that works against bias,? writes North American Society for the Sociology of Sport President C. Richard King. ?CFPA may transform the individual trophy quest from a public relations battle to the legitimate question of which athletes did the most for their teams-BCS or not,? adds sports ethicist Gordon Marino.
