Dumbworld: A Sacramento Based Blog on Entertainment, Media and Art

If you haven’t checked out a New Media Webinar you really should.  Lots of up to date information from industry professionals, they give away free stuff, and best of all the webinars are free (as long as you catch them live).

On June 17th they are having a free webinar on using a DSLR like a pro (Also, check out their webinar on DSLR post-production workflow):

Peter Cote, host of “The DSLR Show“, will identify the limitations of DSLRs as a filmmaking tool and how to work around them to make your project look and feel like it was produced by Hollywood.

My favorite for now are the Mad Decent Worldwide Radio podcasts, and they are free.  It’s been described as NPR for the streets. (more…)

The El Dorado County Lake Tahoe I Love Film Industry Mixer is upon us again.  March 19, 2010 at the El Dorado County Fairgrounds in Placerville.  Free admission and prize raffles. filmtahoe.com for more info

Dumbworld will spend MLK Day doing community service (and this time not court ordered).  One way to give back (if you are in the Sacramento Area) is to volunteer with Hands on Sacramento.  See their list of projects.

And to sweeten the deal, volunteers can get a free ticket for admission to Disneyland or Walt Disney World.  Give a Day. Get a Disney Day. Deadline to sign up is noon on Sunday (though I’m not sure why there is a deadline).

Get a free ticket to one of four January home games.  Looks pretty legit- but these days, who knows.  via the freebie blogger
