SXSW 2011 Video Bullets (3/15/11)

Now that South by Southwest is underway, video coverage is spreading. Here's a rundown of some recent clips, from all around the festival, mostly Interactive.

KXAN Austin News runs down some of the films that will be premiered this week at SXSW. Ewan McGregor's "Beginners," which hits theaters in June, is first up. "Natural Selection" and food doc "A Matter of Taste" are also featured.


On the Interactive side of things, Metacafe explores the streets of Austin in search of answers to the question, "is e-mail dead?"


Who stole the show at Interactive? According to NewsyTech, it was Apple (specifically the iPad 2).



From Dailymotion: "Tech Expert Marc Saltzman talks about emerging technology live from the 25th Anniversary South by Southwest in Austin TX. He showcases Megamind Blu-ray from Paramount, The Boxee Box powered by Intel's Atom technology, Yoostar2's "in The Movies" game and the new Bloggie touch HD camcorder from Sony."



This is something of an odd one. This year, SXSW is featuring a few comedy-related events. So from our friends at, yes, Chevrolet, "Romany Malco talks about the future of comedy and how technology improves his sketches."



Here's a clip from the movie “Outside Industry: The Story of SXSW," which traces the evolution of SXSW’s first 25 years."



So, like, what is the deal with this South by Southwest? Thankfully, CNN's all, like, in the know and stuff.


Last but not least, breaking news from Austin. What happens when someone invades the privacy of a celebrity in a vulnerable place? Just ask Jake Gyllenhaal. Here's my favorite footage, from NMAWorldEdition.
