<p><strong>July 26th</strong> - <a href="http://failcamp.org/" target="_blank">Fail Camp</a> is fast approaching! What the heck is Failcamp? It&#8217;s an event where you admit to your mistakes in business and in life with the hopes that others can learn from them. Co-organizer Amy Hoy has a much better description in her <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/embracethefail/browse_thread/thread/b7d05f4ae02c7956" target="_blank">recent post to the Failcamp google group</a>.

<p><strong>July 30th</strong> - Workshops are back! We will be holding a workshop on the motion effects program <em>After Effects</em> from 6:30- 8:30pm at IndyHall. The presentation will be given by <a href="http://danisnotshort.com/" target="_blank">Dan Short</a>. We hope that, like our previous workshops, this provides practical insight into how an industy professional uses a tool. We encourage students and professionals alike to attend!</p>
<p><strong>ALSO!</strong><br />
Movie Nights will be <em>finally</em> starting in August. The concensus has been that they will take place on a thursday and since those are already booked up this month, we need to move it along to August. We&#8217;re kicking things off with one of your favorite cheesy 80&#8217;s movies, and for the next run, we&#8217;ll be embracing a new opportunity to work with <a href="http://www.independentexposure.com/" target="_blank">Independent Exposure</a>, a Houston based touring independent film circuit.</p>
<p>So stay tuned, and while you do, vote on the next movie:<br />

After kicking things off with our <a href="http://www.indyhall.org/2008/06/27/lets-celebrate-innovation-with-isepta-and-ripit/" target="_blank">Launch Party</a> on Thursday night (thanks to EVERYONE who came out and to all of our sponsors, as well as the hardworking people at National Mechanics). The holiday weekend is over (boo) but the celebration of <em>independents</em> is not!</p>
<p>IndyHall isn&#8217;t just about geeks and nerds, it&#8217;s about embracing the power of the independent. That&#8217;s why I was thrilled to hear about the <a href="http://www.grammy.com/Recording_Academy/Chapters/Philadelphia/">Philadelphia chapter of the  Recording Academy</a> putting on a seminar geared towards selling music in today&#8217;s recording industry. This all day event focuses both on the independent talent, as well as the multimedia and independent music industries overlap in the new marketing space.</p>
<p>This event is taking place at Drexel University this upcoming Saturday, June 12th from 9am-6:30pm.</p>
<p>The recording academy is recommending advance ticket purchase, which is $15 for members of the Academy and $25 for the general public. You can RSVP/purchase by calling 215-985-5411 or emailing <a href="mailto:rsvp_philadelphia@grammy.com" target="_blank">rsvp_philadelphia@grammy.com</a>. <a href="http://www.indyhall.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/poster-ind-day_08.pdf"></a></p>
<p>You can find out more details by downloading this <a href="http://www.indyhall.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/poster-ind-day_08.pdf">PDF Flyer</a>.</p>
<p>Viva l&#8217;independents!</p>

<p>This 4th of July weekend, we celebrate <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.isepta.org/">iSepta</a>: created by Randy Schmidt, Chris Conley, and Jason Tremblay, as well as <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ripitapp.com/">Ripit</a>: created by Jason Allum, Johnny Bilotta, Dave Martorana, and Dave Speers.<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-130" style="float: right;" title="ripit-the-simple-dvd-ripper-for-macs" src="http://www.indyhall.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/ripit-the-simple-dvd-ripper-for-macs.jpg" alt="" width="233" height="154" /></p>
<p>In the spirit of celebrating our successes, IndyHall is inviting <span style="text-decoration: underline;">everyone</span> to join us for frosty cold beverages at our favorite watering hole, National Mechanics. And we can&#8217;t remember a bad time at National Mechanics!</p>
<p>We&#8217;re gathering at <strong>7pm on Thursday, July 3rd</strong> (right before your holiday weekend begins!) so there&#8217;s no excuse for missing it, unless you&#8217;re going out of town. And if you&#8217;re going out of town, you might want to reconsider!</p>
<p>RSVP is requested so we can get a head count. Your choice, <a href="http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/843249/" target="_blank">Upcoming</a> or <a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=19049437199" target="_blank">Facebook</a>.</p>
<p>We hope this is the first of many celebrations of team success!</p>
<h2 id="sponsors">SPONSORS!</h2>
<p>The only thing better than a night at National Mechanics is a FREE night at National Mechanics!</p>
<p>We&#8217;re hoping to make these launch parties a regular event, and so with this first one we want to open up the opportunity for you to sponsor the event.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re designating 3 levels of sponsorship to make this event happen:</p>
<ul>
<li>Fan : $25 sponsorship</li>
<li>Super-fan : $100 sponsorship</li>

</ul>
<p>We REALLY want to support more innovation like this, and we&#8217;d love for you to show your love for these teams hard work. All sponsorship dollars will go directly towards an open tab and passed appetizers.</p>
<p>As a sponsor your name and link will be added to a thank-you page on our site, as well as announced during the party.</p>

		<content type="html" xml:base="http://www.indyhall.org/2008/06/23/from-love-comes-paine-buy-tickets-to-paines-world-at-indyhall/"><![CDATA[<p>This Saturday will be a celebration of a new movement, and as you all know, we&#8217;re big supporters of movement in Philadelphia.</p>
<p>As part of an initiative to re-inspire the skate movement after skating in Love Park was banned six years ago, the <a href="http://www.painesparkproject.org/" target="_blank">Paines Park Project</a> is working to rally support for an important part of the urban culture that has since dissipated to other cities. Paine&#8217;s Park is planned to be not just a skate park, but a skate environment. An environment that can, much like IndyHall has become for us, become an icon for a community.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re huge supporters of projects that help retain talent across industries and cultures. This opportunity is no exception.</p>
<p>So <a href="http://www.painesparkproject.org/painesworld/index.html" target="_blank">join us, along with artists, performers, and a number of other iconic brands</a> from the Philadelphia area including Space 1026, Nocturnal Skate Shop, Urban Outfitters, Tastykake, and <a href="http://www.johnnynines.com" target="_blank">Johnny&#8217;s</a> favorite: Pabst. Along with food and beer, there will be live performances from musicians and skate professionals at the <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=5102+S+16th+Street,+Philadelphia+PA+19912&amp;sll=39.947911,-75.17395&amp;sspn=0.088962,0.147285&amp;layer=c&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;z=16&amp;iwloc=addr&amp;cbll=39.888501,-75.178626&amp;panoid=MTMlMt-QZnjyTHjJZj1W6g" target="_blank">Urban Outfitters Navy Yard HQ</a>.</p>
<p>This is a 21+ event (we&#8217;re checking IDs to purchase, and they&#8217;ll be checking at the gate as well) to support Franklin&#8217;s Paine Skatepark Fund in its mission to build the 2.5 acre skatepark in Center City Philadelphia. Transportation options will be available, <a href="http://www.painesparkproject.org/painesworld/index.html" target="_blank">details are on the website</a>.</p>
<p>You can buy tickets at a number of locations around the city. They&#8217;re <strong>$22</strong> <a href="http://www.painesparkproject.eventbrite.com/" target="_blank">online</a>, or <strong>$20</strong> if you <a href="http://www.indyhall.org/directions/" target="_blank">come to IndyHall</a> and pick them up. They are also available at Red Tettemer, Urban Outfitters in University City and Center City, and Nocturnal Skate Shop.</p>
<p>See everyone Saturday, Skate on!<a href="http://www.painesparkproject.org/painesworld"><img title="xxxfps_banner_728x90" src="http://www.indyhall.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/xxxfps_banner_728x90.gif" alt="" width="591" height="73" /></a></p>

<p>I&#8217;m really, really glad that Jason and Lauren  have taken control of this event and are working hard to get it back into some sort of regular schedule. Coworking should work for lots of different types of workers, and we know that IndyHall isn&#8217;t the perfect fit for everyone. Cream Cheese sessions open up the doors to coworking for a whole new audience. Enjoy!</p>

That is, of course, unless those plans are already to attend the first <a href="http://www.ignitephilly.com">Ignite Philly</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://ignite.oreilly.com/" target="_blank">Ignite</a> is a format popularized by O&#8217;Reilly publishing, and it&#8217;s dead simple: presenters from a wide range of background and interest get on stage with 5 minutes and 20 slides that rotate automatically every 15 seconds.</p>
<p>The result? Fast paced, high quality content that hits the hot points of interesting, educational, entertaining, and inspirational. It&#8217;s also a great opportunity to spend time with some of Philly&#8217;s brightest minds and sharpest leaders.</p>
<p>Speakers include: The <a href="http://isepta.org/"> iSepta</a> guys; Kristin Thompson of the <a href="http://www.futureofmusic.org/"> Future of Music Coalition</a>; <a href="http://www.no-carrier.com/"> NO CARRIER</a>; <a href="http://www.100khouse.com/">100K house</a>; Pete Tridish of the <a href="http://prometheusradio.org/"> Prometheus Radio Project</a>; Alex Hillman (THATS ME!!) of <a href="http://www.indyhall.org/">Indy Hall</a>; and several more.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re so pumped that the first Ignite in Philly is taking place in one of the hippest venues, <a href="http://www.johnnybrendas.com/" target="_blank">Johnny Brendas</a>. Known for being one of the best intimate concert venues in the city, the owners of Johnny Brendas are graciously turning their stage over to us for the evening. Booze will be flowing. Ideas will be churning. The night is sure to be amazing.</p>
<p>The whole event kicks off at 6pm, and we recommend getting there early because it should fill up fast. There&#8217;s an <a href="http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/event.php?eid=15664089821" target="_blank">RSVP on Facebook, too</a>, which we recommend.</p>
<p>The organizers: IndyHall&#8217;s very own Geoff DiMasi and Alex Gilbert of <a href="http://www.punkave.com">P&#8217;unk Ave</a> and <a href="http://www.junto.org">Junto</a> &amp; Vanja Buvac and Far McKon of <a href="http://thehacktory.org/">The Hacktory</a>, and <a href="http://makephilly.org/">Make:Philly</a>, thank you in advance. And I thank them for putting together such a brilliant event.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s this Wednesday, June 11th, at 6pm. Johnny Brenda&#8217;s, <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=1201+N.+Frankford+Ave+philadelphia+pa&amp;sll=37.0625,-95.677068&amp;sspn=48.822589,81.738281&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;z=16&amp;iwloc=addr">1201 N.
