Got*City Game!

Got City Game on the News

Got*City Game! is a game show filmed in Cleveland, about Cleveland, by Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C) students.  The project, sponsored by Tri-C, Hiram College and LiveCLEVELAND, will film three teams of two people competing to win Cleveland for a year – which includes, according to their website, “a free lease at the Tremont Place Lofts and FREE tickets and coupons for sports, music, theatre, restaurants, nightclubs…everything that makes downtown living amazing.”

The shows will be filmed this month all over the city of Cleveland as the teams compete in ridiculous (and green) challenges.  You can see the finished product in November 2009 with six webisodes (one per week) on www.gotcitygame.tv . With each webisode you can VOTE for your favorite team.  The team with the most combined points and votes will win.

Basically, the idea is to show how awesome Cleveland really is and that it can be a great place for young professionals to live.

Duck Feet

So you know how a duck looks calm as it’s gliding along the surface of the water, but beneath the surface, its feet are kicking like gangbusters?  Well, that’s this blog right now. 

Although it may appear like I haven’t posted in a few days, I have been working daily on making a few videos: one about Cleveland’s Green Corp, and another about Cleveland’s EcoVillage.  Little did I know when I started this project that Flip, iMovie and YouTube are not friends.  Or, at the very least, they are not being friendly with me.

I am determined to figure this out and post the videos sometime soon.  And with any luck, my resulting cinematic masterpieces will wow you all.

Alex, Nadine, Janice, and Annie: you know what I’m talking about.  I had a great time with you ladies this past weekend in D.C.!  (Hi Alexxa!)

Videos from the Summit

I recently re-found this video that was shown on the first day of the Sustainable Cleveland 2019 Summit:

My mom (Ruth Eppig), my boss (Margie Flynn), and my freelance employer (Terry Schwarz of the Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative) all appear in this video, which I thought was pretty cool.  This was filmed by Gram Vessey, who will also be making a video of the event itself.

Here is another video, filmed by Mark Rabkin on his Flip, of my boss – Margie Flynn of BrownFlynn – speaking at the Summit.
