On July 2nd, friends and family joined the 19 kids enrolled in the Court 13 Acting and Moviemaking School for Young People, for the premiere of their films. The turnout was remarkable--around 100 people showed up at the Colton Auditorium! The films were shown in order of the classes that conceived them: "Scaredy Cat Superheroes" (Tuesday), "Detention Equals Doom" (Wednesday), and "The Big Hide-and-Go-Seek" (Thursday).
These are some pictures from the event. You can spot Mr. Chris Kaminstein, Michael Gottwald (two of the teachers of the classes), as well as Benh Zeitlin, and most of the 19 kids.

PHOTOS: "Kids" by MGMT - Behind the Scenes
Court 13 Omnimedia artiste Ray Tintori has just dropped another talk-of-the-town MGMT video, the long awaited "Kids" jam. Click HERE to watch if you haven't already.
The video was born and bred in New Orleans, with much of the monsters created and shot in Court 13's temporary home, the Studio at Colton. Many a Court 13 associate put their blood, sweat, and fears into bringing those monsters to life; check out this here photo slideshow for a glimpse behind the scenes.
All particularly dope pictures are the property of Mr. Ben Rowland. Do the right thing and check the other stuff on his website, here.

Photos: The Court at Colton
This past fall, Court 13 found its perfect spiritual home: the Colton Studio, on St. Claude Avenue in New Orleans.
Colton was a public school that closed shortly after Katrina. Now it has been reopened as 3 floors of studio space, inhabited by some of the area's artists as a place where art and community come together. Every artist at Colton teaches free classes to the public, and Joe New Orleans can walk in whenever he wants to peruse the wonders on display.
These include Court 13's own "Saints of Atlantis" exhibit (showcasing a gussied up version of the raft from "Glory at Sea," and featured currently on the Court 13 website here), Court ally Annie E's furniture art, a light spectacular from the guy who did the fireworks at the Beijing Olympics, and much more.
The Court itself inhabits 2 to 3 rooms at a time - 2 for workshopping, 1 for brainstorming. And most importantly, to help storm the brain, Colton is located a stone's throw away from the Daiquiri Shop at Elysian Fields and St. Claude.
Come up and see us some time.
