Launched in 2005, hitRECord.org has evolved into a thriving communal breeding ground for online collective creativity in all sorts of media: video, music, literature, photography, performance, spoken word, screenwriting, graphic art, anything. In January 2010 hitRECord.org launched its new website and introduced its new professional production methodology, allowing contributing artists to be paid for their work." One of Gordon-Levitt's favourite stories from the book is 'Forbidden Love', which has been adapted into a short film. "This short film adaptation of the tiny story "Forbidden Love" started with words from none other than Metaphorest herself, the writer of our Morgan M. Morgansen short films. Imagined and Jpeezy contributed illustrations, and wirrow animated them while mixing in music from tonguecutsparrow. Then, at one of our Summer In The City shows, Carla Gugino briefly took the stage to read the story aloud." Watch a clip of the short-film adaptation of 'Forbidden Love' below... |
