              The Meatrix is a humorous 4-minute Flash animation that spoofs The Matrix films while drawing attention to the problems caused by factory farming. Instead of Keanu Reeves, The Meatrix stars a young pig, Leo, who lives on a pleasant family farm ... he thinks. Leo is approached by a trenchcoat-clad cow, Moopheus, who shows him the ugly truth about agribusiness, complete with a send-up of the "stop-motion" camera work immortalized by the Matrix. At the end of the movie, viewers are directed to an "action page" which provides additional information about factory farms and encourages consumers to support local family farmers and purchase sustainable-raised meats through the Eat Well Guide.

              The short documentary, MORNING: September 11th, begins on a normal day on September 11th in Staten Island.

Suddenly, life changed forever, as residents of Staten Island watched in horror, looking across the bay to Manhattan after two planes hit the World Trade Center towers. “MORNING: September 11th” documents the shocked and quiet reactions of Staten Island Residents, as they listened to “1010 Wins” newscasters in disbelief report the collapse of the twin towers, as Manhattan billowed smoke across the bay.
