"Why Dance?" is an in-depth, behind the scenes look at the world of dance. It examines what attracts so many to this wondrous art form, including young students, former ballerina?s, and current dancers. It explores why they dance and what drives them from their early introduction to the neighborhood dance studio to the stages of Ballet San Jose Silicon Valley, a professional dance company in San Jose, California. The full-length documentary discusses the benefits of dance competitions, including substantial footage of one of many competitions and conventions held in many cities throughout the country every year. It includes interviews with various winners including Peter Chursin (Mr. Dance of America 2003) and Ashley Canterna (Miss Dance of America 2002). The rigorous training, stretching, and rehearsing is also shown, as many of these young people put everything they have into trying to impress the judges during a 2-minute dance routine. Parents discuss the benefits of both dance and competing with respect to the positive influence it has had on their children?s scholastic achievement and self confidence. Not only do ballerina?s (including former dancers with American Ballet Theatre and Dance Theatre of Harlem) share their early experiences growing up in the world of dance, but we get insight from such notables as Dennis Nahat(world renown choreographer/ Artistic Director), Karen "KB" Brown (Artistic Director of the Oakland Ballet), and Daryl Gray(choreographer). Other contributors to the film include photographers Roger Ele, Hubert Worley, Christopher Jean-Richard, and world renown Martha Swope. It examines the USA International Ballet Competition in Jackson, Mississippi which is held every four years where dancers from all over the world attend and compete for "The Gold". Dance as a career is discussed in numerous conversations with current professional dancers and former dancers with such notable dance companies as American Ballet Theatre, The Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre, and the Stuttgart Ballet. Advice is given freely and quite candid in format. The darker side of dance is also explored including injuries, eating disorders, and insecurities, issues that all dancers will face sooner or later. This film goes behind the scenes of a professional dance company?s production of "The Pirates of Penzance", a ballet staged by Ballet San Jose Silicon Valley in San Jose, California. Behind the scenes footage includes actual choreography being set in the rehearsal hall as well as footage of the actual performance and extensive discussion by the choreographer, Daryl Gray. Included is a heart-warming "Billy Elliott" type story of a young boy who not only overcomes the objections of his father, but turns him into one of his biggest supporters at the same time. This film is not only an informative look at the world of dance, but often times an entertaining look as well.

Oasis: "Lord Don't Slow Me Down"
What happens when a film maker follows one of the world's biggest bands on a year long world tour? What happens when the film maker is granted unique access to that band, is present for the ups and downs, the moments of greatness and the periods of the same interview in 10 different languages in as many days? What happens when that band is Oasis, travelling across 26 countries on their biggest world tour to date playing to a total of over 2 million people? The answer is Lord Don't Slow Me Down (Big Brother/Hip-O/UMe), a double DVD set that not only gives you the definitive feature length documentary seen in selected cinemas last year, but also the option of voice over commentaries from the band, a Noel Gallagher Q & A session with fans from New York City, out takes from the film, and a second 90 minute bonus disc capturing the band's homecoming show at the City of Manchester Stadium together with footage sent in by fans from around the world who attended that show. If you wanted to know what the members of Oasis make of their lives on tour and their audience, then the answers are on these two discs. Directed by Baillie Walsh who has previously worked with Massive Attack (he made 'Safe From Harm'), Spiritualized, New Order and Kylie's Slow, and is now working on a film with Daniel Craig, this DVD set is a compendium of Oasis entertainment par excellence.

In a world of recycled, formulaic pop songs, there is a forgotten place deep in the woods of art, love and rock n' roll. This is where you will find Gaz Reynolds. A pop sensation unlike any other, who writes and performs all of his own material and even directs, edits and produces his own pop videos (many of which have been released on DVD compilations and broadcast on TV music networks around the globe). Gaz has been featured in countless music and internet magazines and has appeared on a worldwide TV show broadcast in 64 countries to 135 million viewers. He is also regularly featured on Canada's N0.1 Dance TV Station BPM - TV. As if this wasn't enough, he also has his own animated cartoon series called "Gaz Wars", which can be viewed on the web on his Official Website Gaz World. In recent times, Gaz has gained a reputation for his controversial approach to the music industry. The music press regularly report on his controversial life style and music, and with the launch of his branded P2P software earlier in 2005, he has become an even bigger controversial Star. Now based somewhere between London Gaz World and Gaz World International, Miami Gaz has gained iconic status in the pop/dance field around the world. Having recently hosted his own 3 hour radio show on Radio Gets Wild in the UK with co host and pal DJ Dee, Gaz has shown us all another side to his talent - personality and sense of humour. Since the first show, Gaz and Dee have gone on to braodcast a regular monthly show with DJ Dee in the UK and Gaz broadcasting from his Miami home, featuring major industry guests from around the world. If Depeche Mode, Sash, Pet Shop Boys, Dead Or Alive, Aqua, Stephen Duffy, Duran Duran, Kylie, Human League got together and jammed, the music might sound a little like Gaz. Singing and writing from a young age, Gaz, now thirty-something years old, is a seasoned songwriter. Some would describe his gift as "Maturity with a youthful edge," but Gaz believes that art is art no matter what the age of the creator. Evidently, it is effective to start creating the art as early as possible. Gaz has already received multiple awards for his official website Gaz World (BT IMA nominations 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and an IMA award in 2004) as well as local and Internet-wide recognition for his music, including spotlights and Top 5 chart positions and major radio air play on COMERCIAL HIT RADIO STATIONS throughout the USA and worldwide. Gaz has built a worldwide fan base from hard work and determination, shooting press releases to the music press on a regular basis and having features and regular interviews on CHR, HOT AC, College and Internet Radio around the world. DJ reactions and spins in the clubs around the world have played a vital part in Gaz?s commercial success and high profile. In December 2003, Gaz formed his own record label WORLD DOMINATION RECORDS to market his own unique style of Dance/Pop music. This tactic appears to have worked very well for Gaz as it got him on the front cover of Media One Magazine with Duran Duran. It gave Gaz the credibility and recognition he deserved and enabled him to be featured on the VH1, MTV, All Music Guide, Rolling Stone, and LAUNCH websites. In October 2004, Gaz scored his first Top 40 hit on the Euro NRG Chart, which is based on sales and DJ reaction reports from around the world. Dance songs with a pop sensibility are what you'll hear while listening to Gaz. You might also be able describe his music as pop songs with a rock edge on occasion. Either way, Gaz's music is so widely palatable that it exceeds the boundaries of genres. A nice balance is given with his insightful lyrics, pop hooks and deep masculine and at times boyish vocals, so as not to alienate the different tastes of different listeners. Every song tells a story, drawing you in, making you wonder what is going on in his mind. Gaz really has something to tell you. His music is a wake up call to all Pop fans around the globe. Gaz has recently been working alongside established Producers Ross Alexander, The Panik Brothers, Future Force, The SleazeSisters/Starlet DJs, to further flavour his electronic sound - the best is yet to come!s electronic sound - the best is yet to come!

"South Beach Sounds: Miami Music Week, Volume 1"
South Beach Sounds-Miami Music Week Volume 1 is a sensory souvenir of the world's largest dance and electronica event, the Winter Music Conference. Recorded in 2005, the DualDisc (and separate DVD, both released on March 21st via Immergent) captures the magnitude of the weeklong event, where over 10,000 people from 60 different countries came together for round the clock parties, industry panels, and cutting edge technological demonstrations. Electronica fans and professionals alike attend the conference, now in its 21st year. The DualDisc version of South Beach Sounds is dominated by tracks from some the conference's most electrifying acts. Trance master Steve Porter, house duo Murk, the jarring and intense Australian electronica trio Infusion, and the influential British DJ Pete Tong offer a dizzying sample of what the best performances of the conference were like.
