Brush of Truth: Book App Offers Free Common Core-Aligned Lesson Plans - Published on 10/17/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Brush of Truth, a book app for kids 8-12, is now offering free Common Core-aligned lesson plans on its website. Written in second person, "your" voice, Brush of Truth lets the user choose how the action unfolds at critical points in the plot. The $1.99 USD app, recognized for its appeal to reluctant readers, is available in the iTunes store for the iPad, iPod touch and iPhone, on Google Play for Android devices, and for Kindle Fire and Windows 7 devices.
Cooper City, Florida - Brush of Truth, a book app for kids 8-12 recognized for its appeal to reluctant readers, is now offering free lesson plans that are aligned with Common Core State Standards. Curriculum can be downloaded from the StoryBayou website.
Brush of Truth, geared to third- through sixth-graders, is the first book app created by Story Bayou, a mom's vision to get tweens to read. Written in second person, "your" voice, Brush of Truth lets the user choose how the action unfolds at critical points in the plot. Brush of Truth has 125 pages of story and colorful illustrations, with 65 decision points and 20 possible endings. The app is $1.99 on iTunes, Kindle Fire, Google Play (Android) and Windows 7.
Brush of Truth recently won the 2012 Media of the Year award in the Interactive Book App category in Creative Child Magazine's Creative Toy Awards. The app was named a "Recommended iPad Book App for Older and Reluctant Readers Ages 8-12" by Digital Storytime, and one of "6 Interactive Book Apps to Get Kids Excited About Reading" by Tecca.
The language arts lessons created for Brush of Truth include Powerpoint presentations, worksheets and teacher answer keys. They were developed by Cyndie Sebourn, a retired National Board Certified Teacher and owner of Sascyn Publishing, Inc., which creates Common Core-aligned curriculum for educational apps.
"Brush of Truth is unique in that it is a narrative where children can choose different scenarios as the story progresses. Its curriculum focuses on writing compound and complex sentences correctly, as well as on creative writing," Sebourn said. "Apps alone in the classroom are not enough; educators need apps with curriculum that is Common Core State Standard-aligned."
The app tells the story of two tweens who find an enchanted paintbrush. They begin to discover its powers as they go in adventures under the ocean, inside a sand castle, and while rescuing a sea creature.
"With the introduction of the iPads in my classroom, students are clamoring to play Brush of Truth. They love the choices of where the story will take them and it has been a godsend for some of my more reluctant readers," said Jayne Clare, a founder of the review site Teachers With Apps, and a resource teacher for fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth graders. "My students are loving this app! Every day someone asks for it if I haven't brought it out."
Julie Landry Laviolette, author of Brush of Truth and founder of Story Bayou said book apps are an emerging trend in children's literacy. "Book apps are an exciting new tool to get kids to read," she said. "It also is an inexpensive form of educational technology that reinforces vocabulary skills, higher level thinking , cause and effect and reading comprehension."
Laviolette, a New Orleans native, is a former columnist and editor for The Times-Picayune. She currently lives in Fort Lauderdale, Fl., where she contributes to The Miami Herald, South Florida Sun-Sentinel, South Florida Parenting and more than 30 regional parenting publications in the U.S. and Canada.
Story Bayou, founded in 2011, partnered with Linxter, Inc., a Cooper City software engineering company, to create the mobile app. Brush of Truth was released in February 2012.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Gabriel Machuret, App Store Optimization Consultant based in Australia, launches his new App Store Optimization Guide, ASO Ninja, which can be downloaded from iTunes and Amazon. App Store Optimization (ASO) is a new idea that's focused on maximizing the amount of times apps will be downloaded. It takes the concept of SEO and alters it for mobile phone purposes. It's a way for mobile app developers to boost their ranking and defeat their competitors
Sydney, Australia - Gabriel Machuret, App Store Optimization Consultant based in Australia, launches his new App Store Optimization Guide, ASO Ninja, which can be downloaded from iTunes and Amazon.
Developers have a tough job trying to get their app found within the search results in app stores without being overwhelmed by their competitors because of the 450,000 already on Android and another 600,000 iOS apps. Similar to top keywords for search engines, the apps that rank the highest within the App Store will lead to loads more downloads because that's the main place for getting new phone apps.
App Store Optimization (ASO) is a new idea that's focused on maximizing the amount of times your apps will be downloaded. It takes the concept of SEO and alters it for mobile phone purposes. It's a way for mobile app developers to boost their ranking and defeat their competitors. Gabriel Machuret is an ASO consultant who does this and has assisted over 30 app companies from around the world in the last year.
Gabriel explains - "You need to look at apps from a different view - one in which optimization and searching are continuous processes. It doesn't happen overnight. ASO is now a permanent fixture and you need to be flexible and not stress about it. Then your strategies will be more effective."
Gabriel has created the ultimate ASO Guide called "ASO Ninja" to assist developers in their attempts to be successful in their industry. This guide covers the methods that ASO uses so developers can learn for themselves and apply the information to their own apps.
ASO Ninja's aim is to clarify ASO so it's easier for "apptrepreneurs" and app developers to do properly. It covers app discoverability and searching because they're the largest task of the industry and needs a major understanding of the best ASO to be used for any marketing strategy.

Upcoming Release of Plasma Orb Arcade Game in App Store - Published on 10/17/12
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
October 18, 2012 marks the planned release of a new arcade game, Plasma Orb, powered by Unreal Engine 3. Plasma Orb is an arcade game in which the player controls a spherically shaped biomechanical creature, negotiating various obstacles on its way. The game will be available for download from the App Store in five languages - English, Russian, Spanish, German and French - for iPad, iPhone and iPod.
Kazan, Russian Federation - TZAR games announces the upcoming release of Plasma Orb, on October 18th, 2012. Plasma Orb is an arcade game in which the player controls a spherically shaped biomechanical creature, negotiating various obstacles on its way. The game controls are extremely simple - a tilt of the device to either side will make the Orb roll in the corresponding direction.
The game objective is relatively simple - accumulate as many points as possible by collecting the various bonuses scattered throughout each level. Collecting all the bonuses on each level is no easy task, so that players wishing to achieve optimal results in a minimum of time will have quite a challenge on their hands. The total of accumulated points is published in the Game Center, where players can compare their scores with each other.
The game was developed based on the powerful Unreal Engine 3, which enables it to produce breath-taking 3D graphics of the highest quality on the mobile screens. The convincing simulation of physical laws integrated into the game enables the Orb to interact in a life-like manner with its surroundings.
At the time of release, the game will offer 6 full levels; however there are already plans to add more levels with various arcade styles and unique designs in the future. Passing one level requires 10-20 minutes on average, depending on the player's skill and expertise. The game also includes a tutorial level, which teaches the player the basics of the gameplay.
The game will be available in a free to download version, which grants access to some of the levels, while the rest are available in the full version, which can be purchased and activated through the game app itself for a nominal sum.

Los Angeles CA / Boston MA - Premiere social gathering of New England creative production and post community marks final city stop for SuperMeets in 2012
The Creative Pro User Group Network (CPUG Network) has announced the Third Annual Boston SuperMeetUp, to take place on Friday, November 9, 2012 in the state of the art Theatre 1 at the Revere Hotel Boston Common in Boston, MA. Tickets are on sale online only for the price of $10.00 each General Admission and $7.00 for Students/Teachers with valid ID. The Boston SuperMeetUp marks the final city stop for SuperMeets in 2012 and is expected to sell out as historically every SuperMeet sells out.
"We're very excited to bring our year-long SuperMeet celebration to a close in Boston, home to key players in our industry such as Avid and Autodesk, Boris FX, EditShare, GenArts, Noise Industries and many others," states SuperMeet Co-Producers Daniel Berube of the Boston Creative Pro User Group and Michael Horton of the Los Angeles Creative Pro User Group. "Boston deserves to be part of this celebration and this SuperMeetUp will be a more intimate social gathering than the usual SuperMeets we produce around the globe. For Boston, we've assembled a fantastic show lineup to make this SuperMeetUp a premiere social gathering for New England's creative production and post community to network, learn and get inspired."
Oscar nominated film editor Tim Squyres, A.C.E. will appear on stage on behalf of Avid. Squyres has edited all but one of Ang Lee's films, including CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON; SENSE AND SENSIBILITY; THE ICE STORM, and the soon to be released LIFE OF PI. In addition, Squyres has edited SYRIANA, GOSFORD PARK and RACHEL GETTING MARRIED, to name a few.
"If there is one reason to get out of the house and be a part of this SuperMeetUp it's to connect and interact with Tim Squyres," comments Berube and Horton. "LIFE OF PI will be in theaters after the SuperMeetUp on November 21st and is one of 2012's most anticipated films. So to have Tim talk about his work here is a privilege for our creative community. We are really excited to make this happen and thank you, Avid, for helping us get Tim to Boston!"
New York based directors Jason and Josh Diamond will also appear on stage at the SuperMeetUp on behalf of longtime supporter of the SuperMeets, Blackmagic Design. "The Diamond Brothers are shooting very creative projects with the new Blackmagic Cinema Camera," comments Berube and Horton. "This camera is changing everything in the world of affordable 2K acquisition and both Jason and Josh will share their experiences in shooting with the camera and screen footage to show us how as talented filmmakers they are pushing this camera to its limits."
San Francisco based filmmaker Kanen Flowers, creative director of Scruffy.tv and the upcoming twelve episode web series HERO PUNK will also appear on stage on behalf of Adobe. "If you have never seen Kanen Flowers present before you are in for a treat," adds Berube and Horton. "Kanen will take us "behind the scenes" of THE SCRUFFY SHOW and show us some crazy, fun footage as well as the workflow, using Adobe Premiere Pro, Audition and After Effects."
The Boston SuperMeetUp will also include show and tells featuring the work of local filmmakers as well as the always wild and fun "World Famous Raffle," where thousands of dollars worth of valuable filmmaker-related prizes will be handed out to dozens of lucky winners.
Doors are scheduled to open at 5:30pm. Here, attendees can enjoy a few cocktails together and learn about the latest trends in collaborative editing workflows for post production and broadcast markets. "More importantly, attending the Boston SuperMeetUp is your chance to meet face to face with each other to help solve creative obstacles and form collaborations. That is what SuperMeets are all about," according to Berube and Horton.
Tickets are on sale online only at $10.00 each for General Admission and $7.00 for Students/Teachers and both prices includes 2 raffle tickets. Price will increase to $15.00 at the door assuming any tickets are still available. Complimentary hot hors d'oeuvres and cash bars will be available throughout the evening. To purchase tickets online and for complete daily updates on the Boston SuperMeetUp including directions, transportation options, and a current list of raffle prizes and sponsors, visit the Boston SuperMeetUp website.
