Wyatt (The Suite Life on Deck, Legally Blonde); and, Siena Irwin (The Drew Carey Show, The Brave and the Bold).

Adams home on medical leave after having had his carotid artery sliced open by shrapnel from a rocker propelled grenade while engaged in a fire fight in Afghanistan.

Flappers Comedy Club and Burbank International Film Festival have joined to make this wish come true.

“We are privileged and honored to be able to salute not only this brave soldier but his many friends who did not survive that bloody attack two months ago now. We sincerely hope that the community shows its support by coming out for this very special event.” Said Adrian Iniguez CEO of the Burbank International Film Festival.

First Indie 3D Blu-ray Live Action Comedy Safety Geeks SVI : 3D releases in August

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) July 29, 2011 --
Producers Dave Beeler and Tom Konkle are pleased to announce the release of Safety Geeks: 3D on 3D Blu-ray though a distributor partnership with DDD.com and a Sony subsidiary which puts the 3D Blu-ray in stores like Best Buy, Target and Walmart in August.

Safety Geeks: 3D is the comic adventures of a semi-elite force of safety experts; the P.O.S.H. (Professional Occupational Safety Hazard) team. Obsessed with making the world and bits of Canada safer, the CSI-like team investigates accidents to find out what went wrong and who is to blame. Interestingly, their involvement causes far more damage than they prevent, leaving a trail of chaos and destruction in their wake -- in 3D.

The 3D process employed in Safety Geeks: 3D will not be the traditional red and blue glasses anaglyph technique dating back to the 1950's, but instead will take advantage of the cutting edge, stereoscopic processing from the 3D production company Lumen Actus.www.lumenactus.com

Safety Geeks: 3D is the first live action comedy web series to be presented in stereoscopic 3D. It is available in several forms: 3D Blu-ray, as downloadable video on the web, as part of the 3D media TriDef player, as VOD on the web site Yabazam.com and even as traditional media on next generation 3D televisions, 3D computers, and 3D hand held devices like, 3D phones and game platforms.

Tom Konkle, one of the writers and producers of the series says, "The modular nature of our show allows the original eleven web series episodes to play well for platforms like mobile and web video while the one hour "movie version" lends itself to big screen home entertainment systems." David Beeler, the other producer and writer of the series added, "Our whole team is very excited about the flexibility of our show, it was shot in a manner ideal for the 3D process and now distribution systems have caught up with our show which can meet the current need for programming. There are so many ways that Safety Geeks: 3D can reach the right end users, specifically the audience that actually buys new technology first."

Konkle, who also stars with Beeler, concludes, "Because our show appeals to a Monty Python and Adult Swim sense of humor, it is a great match because the "geek" audience that enjoys this kind of comedy most readily consumes the new technologies as they come onto the marketplace and they have the financial resources to acquire to enjoy all the various new emerging 3D platforms."

Having often joked about how Dave Beeler and Tom Konkle use technology in the service of comedy instead of action or science fiction, it seemed only appropriate that the way Safety Geeks season one was shot made it the perfect first candidate for 3D technology.

Safety Geeks: 3D was created in 3D from Lumen Actus, a Burbank, CA based visual effects company. Lumen Actus is currently developing a SmartBudget 3D comedy feature called "Rescue U " and a 3D slate including second season of Safety Geeks with star attachments like John Cleese in guest roles and new series for 2D and 3D media platforms including ITVFest Official Comedy Selection, Invention with Brian Forbes which screens in the festival August 7th at the Sunset Laemmle 5.
