Buffalo, where’s the love? Queen City, Nickel City, City of Good Neighbors — the fact of the matter is, we have a lot to offer, and it’s your turn to show your fellow Buffalonians just how much you love Buffalo. Send your concept videos to Artvoice, and the best videos will be produced with professional audio/video equipment by the Artvoice Web Team, with you in the director’s chair! Your video can be about anything you love about Buffalo and the surrounding area. Because you know what? Buffalo, we love you.

Create a two minute (or shorter) video about Buffalo. It can be about anything — your favorite hang out, your favorite people, or perhaps Buffalo’s architecture really catches your eye. There are no restrictions on the type of video you may create — narrative, music video, storyline, documentary, anything at all. Upload your video to youtube.com and let us know about it at artvoice.com/videocontest.

Visit the contest page for rules, prizes, and full details!

Poll? We Got Your Poll!


Where would we be without that imperfect political tool, the poll?

This morning, Artvoice joined the ranks of major news organizations like Reuters, C-SPAN, CNN, FOX, NBC, CBS, ABC, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Time, Newsweek, The Washington Post, and the Mat-Su Valley Frontiersman (the local paper for Sarah Palin’s home town of Wasilla, AK), by conducting a poll of our own among the big crowd of people who gathered outside our office to claim a free movie preview pass for tonight’s screening of Body of Lies, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe.

Check out the clip below to see what our thrifty cross-section of movie buffs had to say about tonight’s debate and the upcoming Presidential election.

B-52s at Rockin’ at the Knox

Filed under: AVTV, Music — Tags: , , , — Jamie Moses @ 9:13 pm

Weather predictions of showers for Saturday night proved wrong and the Albright-Knox Art Gallery was jammed packed for their Rockin’ at the Knox annual fundraiser concert. This years headliner was the whacky “new wave” party band of the eighties, The B-52s, and the band’s stage energy was as high as a beehive hairdo.
