10,000 Hours

10,000 Hours is a 2013 Filipino action film directed by Joyce Bernal. The film stars Robin Padilla as a Philippine senator forced to go on the run.

Plot

In 2010, Sen. Gabriel Alcaraz prepares a privilege speech revealing details of a corruption scam at the highest levels of the government, implicating President Genoviva Obrero. However, on the day he is prepared to deliver the speech at the Senate, a close ally, NBI director San Juan, is assassinated while trying to warn him of a plan to arrest him. Undaunted, Alcaraz leaves his family and slips out of the Senate complex just as a police detail led by his old colleague, Director Dante Cristobal, move in to serve the warrant. He heads to the NAIA airport, but knowing that the police are waiting for him there, slips out of the country aboard a ship with help from TV reporter Maya Limchauco and an associate of the NBI chief. He arrives in Amsterdam, where Isabelle Manahan, a Filipino expatriate who works with the UN, shelters the senator but discourages him against contacting his loved ones back home; the family falls into despair from the backlash over his escape.

48Hours

48Hours is a New Zealand film-making competition. It involves teams of various sizes competing to write, shoot, edit and score a short film, which must be between 1 and 7 minutes long, over a single 48-hour period. Developed from the US-based 48 Hour Film Project, which was run in Auckland in 2003, 48Hours has been running as a New Zealand-only event since 2004. with regional competitions organised in 8 cities around New Zealand: Auckland, Hamilton, Gisborne, Rotorua, Taranaki, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin.

The event is organised by Anthony "Ant" Timpson. Teams attend a launch ceremony on a Friday night where each team is given a randomly selected genre within which to base their film's theme. They are also given three compulsory features which are common to all teams. These are a line of dialogue, a prop, a character, and since 2010, a "technical" element.

All creative work required to produce the film must be undertaken and completed within the 48 hours of the competition. This includes storylining, scriptwriting, filming, editing and audio mixing. Teams must deliver their finished film to the competition organisers by the Sunday evening to be eligible for prizes, although late deliveries will still be screened in the heats.

RECOIL is a tank-based Windows computer game. It involves the player driving a flying experimental tank known as the "BFT" (Battle Force Tank) through various missions. There is heavy influence on the two weapons to be collected throughout the game. It was developed by Zipper Interactive, a subsidiary of its parent publisher, EA, and uses the same game engine as MechWarrior 3.

Plot

RECOIL takes place at an uncertain time in the semi-near future. A network corporation has taken over most of the computers on the planet, and has forced everyone into slavery, their ultimate goal being to make everything robotic, autonomous. A resistance forms, operating in underground buildings and travelling at night to avoid detection by the machines. The player is given various missions to take out different parts of the Network's forces and operations, using a stolen prototype tank known as the BFT (Battle Force Tank), which is transported from place to place by a stolen VTOL aircraft.
