Over the second weekend of this month, several filmmakers took to the streets of Richmond, rushing to create a 4-minute film in only 48 hours. The 48 Hour Film Project started back in 2001, when Mark Ruppert encouraged his fellow filmmakers in DC to try and make a film in only 48 hours. After much success, the competition spread across the United States and major international cities with over 250,000 participants. Filmmakers in Richmond got the opportunity to participate in the competition for the sixth year this month. On Friday, July 12, teams were given a character, prop, line and genre to include in their films. The character was house guest Max (or Maxine) Lydard, the prop a flag, and the line was “There’s no time to lose.”view more

Extraordinary RVA musician Matthew E. White turned a lot of heads when he released his first solo project, Big Inner, in August of last year. The album is the first project to come out of White’s own label, Spacebomb, and it received plaudits from a vast cross-section of the indie rock universe (including a rave review from Pitchforkand a collaborative tour with the Mountain Goats). Recently he has been given another complimentary nod from British indie-dance outfit Hot Chip, who just released a remix of his song "Big Love."view more

STEPHAN SCHNEIDER SPRING/SUMMER 2014

Season at Ease–Belgian designer Stephan Schneider looks to summers poolside and accentuates the soft side of menswear with his spring/summer 2014 outing. Embracing a relaxed aesthetic, fabrics are draped, several silhouettes elongated and silk employed. While a fantastic brick print decorates tops, jackets maintain a loose boxy shape. For knitwear, the casual essential is afforded a young edge with short sleeves or reinterpreted as a hooded jacket. From tapered trousers to shorts of varying lengths, Stephan Schneider rounds out the season with an effortless approach to leisure.Casual Prom Dresses uk
