So, while we are all cooped up why not pick up a good book? In honor of 4/26 let us take a look at a very good book, The Making of Alien. Continue reading

Training Simulations: VR from the RR (Using the Virtual Worlds to Escape the Pandemic Life)

I was on board with the Sony PSVR virtual reality system from launch. How could I not be? I dreamed of stepping into virtual worlds as a kid in the 80s. My day job is with Sony Pictures and prior to the launch there were a half dozen VR systems set up in the Sony building on 25th street and Madison for employees to try. I was there every day.
At least once. Continue reading

Equipment: A Visit to Well Played Toys from Toy Fair 2020

Some of you may recall from last year, my frantic search throughout the Javits convention center trying to find the company that was producing Lost in Space toys. In a cruel twist of irony I was lost and unable to find my destination. After bad directions, non-functioning elevators and having to juggle appointments I finally found the Well Played Toys booth. I vowed that it would not happen again this year and it didn’t. On day one of Toy Fair I found the Well Played booth. Continue reading

Equipment: Mattel at Toy Fair 2020…Barbie, Hot Wheels, Jurassic World and He-Man!

I love the Monday breakfast with Mattel. It is more than just a booth tour, it is an event. The Mattel booth is not accessed by just everyone since it is tucked away on one of the upper floors. The only way to get past security is to have an appointment and I have to say I enjoy being on the list. This year I skipped the breakfast part so I could get into the showroom before my colleagues. It didn’t go exactly as planned since I ran into someone I knew just inside the door. By the time we were done chatting the room began to fill. Continue reading
