Beyonce Music Videos

Beyonce is known for her upbeat music and unique style which definitely shines through in her music videos. She was initially a part of Destiny’s Child which was immensely popular and released videos like Survivor , 8 days of Christmas , Lose my Breath and Say My Name among others. Soon after they broke up, Beyonce began her solo career which was widely appreciated. Her first video as a solo artist was Crazy in Love which was an instant hit.

Other famous videos include Beautiful Liar which featured another popular singer as well. This video proved that Beyonce could not only sing beautifully but also dance as well. She made belly dancing seem easy and inspired young children to take up the dance form as well.

Beyonce is known to incorporate fashion into her videos on a frequent basis. A minute into the video of Single Ladies proves this point. The black and white background definitely complements her flexible moves and the simple outfits enhance the elegance of the entire video. During a recent talk show, Beyonce confirmed that she was inspired by Bob Fosse and used his style to create the entire look of the video. She said she saw the choreographer’s video on a popular video website which helped her to create the moves and vibe of the music video.

A large number of Beyonce’s videos feature Jay Z including Crazy in Love , Déjà vu and Bonnie and Clyde . The duo received a nomination during the Grammy awards as well. The fact that her albums are a success definitely contributes towards the success of her music videos as well. Due to these reasons, Beyonce has come to be known as one of the most popular and marketable artists in the industry today. Apart from music, Beyonce has also tried her hand in movies and product endorsements. Her first film was Carmen: A Hip Hopera in 2001 and 5 years later, she bagged the lead role in Dreamgirls and went on to win two nominations during the Golden Globe awards. To top it all, she also own a fashion line House of Dereon which was launched in 2004.

As a Beyonce fan, the good news is that her videos are not only easily available but can also be watched for free. This is made possible with the help of websites like YouTube. One can also download her videos with the help of iTunes and Torrent. Recently, she announced a $250000 prize for a fan who could come up with a music video inspired by Single Ladies which would then be shown during her tour.

Keeping in mind her acting career, endorsements and of course her widely popular music videos, Beyonce is definitely on her way to become a legend. She has become a household name and VH1 features at least one Beyonce video on a daily basis. Her tours have always been sold out and have been immensely successful. The best part about her videos is that they are not based on a particular storyline like other music videos. They are simple and focus primarily on dancing and having fun.

Reasons Why You Should Watch TV on the Web

Our society is moving into ever increasing reliance on the Internet. Even businesses are finding renewed success on the World Wide Web. So substituting the old boob tube for television over the Internet may not be so far fetched. In fact, the number of people getting their daily dose of TV on the Internet is steadily growing.

Can you imagine watching your favorite TV shows from anywhere in the world, and at anytime you want? This is the promise of Television on the Internet. No longer confined to the old boob tube, more and more people are discovering the many advantages that online TV has to offer. But the question remains: should you jump on the TV bandwagon?

A Wide Range of Benefits


Online television promises to provide a number of benefits. Most notably: being able to watch TV when and where you want. This is because all you will need to watch TV online is a computer and Internet connection. You are not restricted to scheduled programming either since you are given the freedom to select whatever show you want at a whim.


The cost of online TV is also far cheaper than traditional paid Television. There are many free providers on the Web. However, paid TV services for a small setup fee can truly maximize your television viewing experience. The value you get quite exceeds what you pay for.


Diverse Variety of Content


Where else can you get up to 3000+ television channels to choose? Television on the Internet far surpasses what traditional cable and satellite TV has to offer. Cable or Satellite TV can give only around 300+ channels at the most. Online TV users not only have a very rich variety of content to watch, but also has access to television spanning the globe. Web television gives you access to TV programming from hundreds of countries. Experts and globetrotters wouldn’t have to miss their favorite shows wherever they may be.


A Glimpse of Things to Come


Since the Internet is a true two way medium, we may yet see the full potential of Television on the Internet. Already, users are sharing links, creating communities, and participating in lively forums about their favorite shows on the Net. And soon, commercial breaks could be a thing of the past. Ads will always be there, but sponsors will find plenty of non intrusive and more effective ways to advertise on the Internet TV platform.

Television on the Internet is a truly global medium to access information and entertainment. It offers many advantages over traditional cable and satellite TV broadcasting at a fraction of the cost. If you want to save money while getting a huge selection of Television shows from around the globe then this is definitely for you.

The biggest reason to watch Television on the Internet is to eliminate expensive TV subscription costs. There are many free Internet television providers whose channels line up far surpasses what cable/satellite TV can offer. Even those paid Internet TV providers (with even bigger TV offerings) would only ask for a small one time setup fee. Total costs are just a fraction compared to what you pay annually on cable/Satellite subscription.

How to Decorate Your Events Venue

Events are frequently used to showcase a company’s talent and the décor used often reflects a company’s culture and style. For this very reason companies invest hundreds of thousands of dollars each year in events and require meticulous planning and attention to detail. To decorate such high profile event planners need to look at a number of key areas.

Theme


Events are held for a variety of reasons ranging from charity events to award shows but in each case the décor and design should follow a strict theme. The theme should be related to the events purpose and be in keeping with your company’s belief and ethos. As a planner you should try to convey a clear message through your desi
gn. Many planners identify their theme after they have clearly set the goals and objectives of the event. Popular themes include Rome and James Bond.

Time of Year


Season plays an important role within event planning as your décor, design and setup will be greatly affected by the weather. Traditionally event popularity peeks in the summer as the weather is warm and planners can embrace the natural sun light and warmth. Decorations and light can be used to give a feeling of warmth in the winter.

Decorations

Decorations are key to the look of an event and should follow the theme you have identified above. Planners often spend the majority of their budget in this area as they can be perceived to have the biggest visual impact. Table decorations and chair covers for events tend to be some of the most popular types of decoration. Planners also put a big emphasis on banqueting chair covers. These small touches all help add to the atmosphere and provide a fun atmosphere for your guests.

Venue Size


The size of the venue will play a huge role in the decorations you plan to use. Large venues will require much larger decorations to help fill the space while smaller venues will need more subtle ones. Again the theme will play a large part in this. Planners should also look into the shape of a venue as some venues offer awkward spaces to work with. If the space is compartmented then it might be worth while using some variations in the theme from area to area. This makes each area unique and exciting. The decorations in your venue should engage your audience and add to the overall experience.


When decorating any events venue the majority of a planner’s time should be put in to planning and research. Finding decorations that will suit your event takes time and taking the time to visit various suppliers usually pays off. The internet is a popular resource for finding such suppliers and you may have to go to extra lengths to find the perfect decoration. Most suppliers will also offer bulk discount on items and you can often negotiate with them. Remember to follow your plan carefully and review the areas mentioned above.

Why we Love Horror Movies?

Jason Voorhees

We enjoy seeing people run for their lives. Unfortunately some people have a real sick predilection to see blood, human blood and seemingly the more the better. As sick and twisted as it is this is one of the realities of our movie going experience. Others enjoy seeing people loose their heads, pun intended. As long as ours remain intact, all is well in the world.

The Bad Guys

Where would the horror movie genre be without one of the craziest guys to ever don a hockey mask such as Jason Voorhees or better still, if John Carpenter hadn't given birth to such a Jacko' (Sorry) I mean wacko like Michael Myers? Or even the masterfully written and intriguing Jig Saw in the Saw series who happens to be one of my favorite "boogie men". Or how about Jack Nicholson's horrifying performance in Steven Kings "The Shining". But if I had to throw a monster in that mix, and grant it this next selection is female, I would have to say that the "highly over protective" alien from the movie Aliens deserves to be in the conversation. The movie and its villainous Alien is certainly one of the chief reasons the movie remains a favorite of most lovers of the genre. It's certainly pretty high and green on my list.

But...Wait don't go in the closet!

Something that most moviegoers will never understand is why so many times the heroine in a horror movie whenever hearing some kind of strange noise coming from maybe her downstairs of her home or from her closet she always has to investigate. In real life, the average person wouldn't hesitate getting out the house if they thought there might be someone in their home. But truthfully, if it weren't for this obvious character flaw we the moviegoer wouldn't enjoy the same level of interaction with the movie's characters. And as long as the characters in the horror movies continue to do really stupid things we the moviegoer will continue to enjoy telling them about it.

So... Would you like some cheese with that sir?

Filmmakers have collaborated for years in making some of the best horror movies you can think of, many of which if I mentioned you would have probably seen and undoubtedly enjoyed. But over the course of that same period many lousy or what some would like to term "cheesy" horror movie have also been made. Movies like Motel Hell, Hellraiser or The Exorcist Part 2 just to name a few. I'm sure if you were to name some of the cheesiest horror movies you've seen I wouldn't be too surprised at some of your selections either.

I personally love horror movies so much and have been watching them since I was a small child that I have more of a tolerance for a bad or "cheesy" horror movie then most. Movies like "The Trilogy of Terror", I think I was about twelve or thirteen when first seeing this "cheesy" movie but many years later it still resonates with me as one of the movies that I would enjoy seeing over and over again.

One of the reasons I think for this tolerance is because I understand that the "horror genre" unlike some others, lends itself more to real bad stories and even worse acting. If you were to take stock of many of the movies you've seen over the years and just briefly thought about what percentage of those movies were bad and of those how many were horror movies, I think you would manage to prove my point perfectly.

I think as a lover of horror movies you understand that going in that there is a huge possibility that despite the movie's title and the appeal of its trailer that after the curtain opens a hour and half to two hours later you could leave out of the theater feeling not so good about how you just spent your time.

True lovers of the genre are just happy they had another chance to take part in the entire experience, such as it is.
