Hollywood's #1 Social Change Membership Organization.

Founded in 2004, The Hollywood Hill provides its entertainment industry members with both speaker-driven educational events and tools that support them in the production of social issue media content.

Our primary focus is supporting innovators in science and technology. We're entering a new century defined by rapid and exponential breakthroughs in science and technology that are handing the human race an unprecedented capability to shape the future of the world. The Hollywood Hill tracks the innovators behind these breakthroughs, invites them to present their work to Hollywood, and then provides tools for the entertainment industry to help develop and deploy their projects into the global marketplace, thus maximizing their impact.

Hollywood has a role to play in supporting these innovators. Not only do we have the largest creative community in the entire world, but a world-class business community capable of providing business strategy, legal, marketing, and financial assistance. Hollywood's thousands of top attorneys, agents, managers, and producers, combined with our diverse and ecletic film, television, and music creative talent are a virtual army of social change agents with a global reach.

Our Wired + Green Command Center, The Catalyst Center (launching 2009), will be The Hollywood Hill's hi-tech command center for speaker-presentations and project activities. In collaboration with Wired Magazine, the 6,000 sq. ft. building will become a showcase for state-of-the-art wired and green technologies.

 

Our Events & Conferences keep our entertainment industry members informed on key breakthroughs and marketplace trends. Wired Magazine is the 2008 Presenting Sponsor and Yahoo our 2008 Lead Sponsor of our Conference Series. In addition to science and technology, we host entertainment industry workshops discussing trends within the industry, with particular focus on the impact of technology innovations. And we also publish a Daily Intelligence Report by email keeping members up-to-speed on marketplace innovations on a daily basis.

Our Projects are being developed in partnership with Armchair Revolutionary, a new website start-up focused on engaging the public in innovative social projects supporting science and technology innovators that can shape a positive future. The Hollywood Hill will be providing short-form media support for Armchair's non-media projects as well as project management of Armchair's media projects. Our credentialed members will have a chance to volunteer for these assignments and our junior members will have a chance to shadow these experts in our mentorship program.

To assist our members and our organization in packaging all social issue media projects, we are launching SeedGrid.com, a new website that brings the entertainment community together for attaching business and creative talent to social issue media projects.

BigBrainBoy's Mobile Media Summit

HOLLYWOOD MEETS MOBILE. FOR SOCIAL CHANGE.

With Wired Magazine as our Presenting Sponsor, we are pleased to announce The Hollywood Hill’s inaugural BigBrainBoy Mobile Media Summit - Hollywood and North America’s first conference on the imminent explosion of mobile apps, mobile games, mobile media, and mobile banking for social change.

Social Activism is moving into the 21st digital century. Films like Iron Man and Batman: The Dark Knight are merely a reflection of a broader revolution in science and technology that is enhancing the human race’s ability to affect positive change around the world.

The next great battle in technology is over the cellphone in your pocket. Apple, Google, Microsoft & Nokia have just opened the Pandora’s box, empowering third party developers to innovate new applications, media, games and banking tools for mobile phones. This is creating an unprecedented opportunity for global social change.

The new hi-tech tools - a mobile app by Qik that enables citizens to become journalists by streaming live video feeds from their cellphones; mobile banking software from Safaricom that allows Kenyan farmers to transfer funds via SMS - are just the beginning of the revolution.

Strategically scheduled to directly follow CTIA in San Francisco (the largest international mobile conference), we have invited dozens of the world's top mobile start-ups, telecoms, and technology innovators doing projects in both the developed and developing world to come and participate in this historic event with panels and presentations on their ambitions and accomplishments.

Hollywood has a tremendous history with social change. This conference is an opportunity for us to start defining the new hi-tech digital social activist. These topics will also have tremendous impact on the future of the entertainment industry and your career.
