Gleb has a unique personal story, quirky and innovative short film, and massive vote-getting prowess. Judges included Rockethub.com, Arien Rozelle of FeelingAnxious PR, Lonny Knapp of AOL’s Spinner.com, Octavio Blanco of CNNMoney, and Jacob Shwirtz of MTV. Congratulations to Gleb!

Additionally, we’ve named two finalists:

Lloyd Godson and his fascinating underwater research initiative. “The aim of the project is to establish a globally unique underwater research, education and outreach facility in the Vinkeveense Plassen, a freshwater lake area in The Netherlands.”

Nicole Ballivian and her internationally relevant feature film. “Sleeping on Stones will be a feature film, to be shot in the West Bank city of Hebron. It will be the first dramatic feature film of Hebron and it is both a Palestinian and an American story.”
We are excited to work with all of the winners!

NMT: Young the Giant

30 Aug

California based indie rock quintet Young the Giant (formerly The Jakes) is energizing – they can take any tempo, any beat, any melody and make it evocative. Their self-titled debut album was released in October, and the band has been on a roll ever since. Fresh off of their performance on MTV’s Video Music Awards, Young the Giant will kick off their tour with Incubus today.

Full Disclosure: Young the Giant is a great band but we don’t work for them. We just dig their tunes.
