Baltimore Shows Much Love At the BMORE HACKS Movie World Premiere!
Greetings everyone,
I am just now getting settled back home in Cali after traveling to Baltimore and New York networking and promoting the movie. I have many emails to answers. Thank you all for the positive comments and feedback!
The BMORE HACKS screening was
truly a dream come true. I was overwhelmed by the wonderful
reception and appreciation for the film. We had nearly 140 people
in attendance. I am sorry that I didn't have more time to spend
with folks' but I look forward to our encore screening in
January! More on this later...
Here are a couple of pictures from the event. I have additional pics, a bit of video, and an audio podcast of the program, coming up in the next day or so.

Sister Mamma Kay Lawal and her Wombwork crew rolled
thru deep with 30+ people.
The BMORE HACKS DVD
The BMORE HACKS DVD orders are picking up. We had an error with our automated shopping cart/on-demand system, so some orders had been delayed going until I returned home. However, all orders have now been manually processed. They will be shipped by Kunaki.com on Thursday afternoon. I will have the wholesale order system in place by Friday.
Please call 512-498-9999 x70 or e-mail support@urbanartsclub.com if you have any questions. We ordered an extra DVD for everyone as a token of gratitude.
More exciting updates coming soon, including the launch of the BMORE HACKS book project!
Most gratefully,
Maxie Dayrron

BMORE HACKS 2008- Thank You...Update!
Greetings everyone!
Please forgive me for the length
of this message, however there is much to share.
First, let me apologize for my lack of communication during my
West Coast and Texas, digital hermit years. I would ask that none
of you take the lack of communication personal.
I have spent weeks, months, and years as a recluse writing,
editing, and coding. But I know it's now time for me to share my
research and development with those who may be interested.
It's truly a joy and a pleasure to now be in contact with so many
people who have invested time, money, expertise, and talent into
the BMORE HACKS movie, DVD, and website. It's really exciting to
see everyone network on the website.

Riverside, CA- December 2, 2008
For filmmaker and author Maxie D. Collier cutting edge technology

documentary on hip-hop entrepreneurship, starring Ludacris,
Flavor Flav, Fat Joe, and many others. As well as his
bestselling book, the "IFILM Digital Video Filmmaker's
Handbook," one of the first guides published on amateur and
prosumer digital filmmaking.
Collier is also drawing upon emerging digital technology when he
debuts his new feature film "BMORE HACKS," in Baltimore on
Weds. December 10th. The period movie tells the stories of a
group of illegal cab drivers working the streets of Baltimore in
the mid-90s.
Collier is releasing the film direct-to-DVD and digital download
on the same night as the film premiere. The debut screening will
be streamed live on the web. The movie's soundtrack and t-shirts

LEVI, a former middle school teacher. A passionate, charismatic, idealistic young Afrocentric Black man trying to channel his frustration and energy towards his goal of starting Unity Community, “a safe, positive place for anyone trying to live righteous.”
After losing faith in the system, he now hacks to make money to start his community and recruit people to support his efforts. Throughout the day he struggles to stay committed to his goal, while trying to not be affected by the many vices, challenges, and risks of urban living.
RUE, a strong, boisterous, playful Black woman who hacks at various malls and grocery stores. Her soft side gives in to TATE, a soft-spoken, slow moving elderly hack whose car was stolen by Rue’s young nephew, JD, a charming, manipulative, quick tempered young Black man who has lost his self in a crack pipe. His days now consist of hacking and getting high, while causing pain and chaos along the way. Rue agrees to help Tate track down his car, as long as she can still pick up a few passengers along the way.
GIL a quiet laid back, country guy picks up ELIJAH, a sneaky, old street hustler. Elijah uses cash to quickly bond with Gil. The two men spend the day going from mall to another, so that Elijah can skillfully conduct his business as a booster/shoplifter.
