Ridley Scott to co-produce sci-fi short films for Machinima
Author: Jade Kim
While Machinima has spread its wings beyond its namesake game engine-based movies, the company has only occasionally broken out of its familiar video game template. Those horizons are about to get wider through a collaboration with Ridley Scott’s production house, RSA. Scott and RSA president Jules Daly will serve as executive producers for a project generating 12 short sci-fi films for Machinima’s channels, with the directors culled from among RSA’s superstar ranks. In theory, it’s a win-win scenario: Machinima gets professionally-made movies to diversify its library, while directors can explore ideas that wouldn’t necessarily be approved for a full-length feature. There’s a hope for District 9-style regular movies co-developed with Machinima if all goes well, but we’d advise patience when the partnership hasn’t even chosen its directors. It will take some time before we’re catching a sci-fi mini-drama from the comfort of our living rooms.

The Engadget Interview: Polaroid CEO Scott Hardy (video)
Author: Mark Jeffries
There’s a big framework in Polaroid’s Photokina booth– a giant, blown up model of the legendary white border that graced the company’s instant images for numerous decades, beckoning passersby to stand behind it and pose, like muscle guy cutouts at a taking a trip carnival. Straight to its right, attendees stand around a row of product from the business intended at recapturing some of the nostalgia inherent in the Polaroid name. It’s nothing contrasted to the party at a booth 20-or-so feet around the space, where worldwide visitors stand amazed by the Quick Lab, an accordion-style gizmo that transforms iPhone pictures into instantaneous photos, making use of movie produced at the last remaining Polaroid factory, since acquired by a company fittingly named ” Impossible.”
The very early 21st century is a peculiar time to be the head of a company like Polaroid, standing at a bit of a crossroads between brand-new and old modern technologies, trying to harness the cache (and nostalgia) that includes 75 years of history, while staying in touch with the current trends in electronic imaging and slates. We relaxed with the business’s CEO Scott Hardy to go over precisely exactly what it means to be Polaroid in 2012, where the business goes from right here and the amount of looking back is essential to keep it moving ahead.

Yahoo CEO Scott Thompson to step down, according to AllThingsD
Author: Janet Odell
AllThingsD reports today that Yahoo CEO Scott Thompson will leave the company, citing anonymous sources. The news comes after word came out that the CEO falsely claimed to have a computer science degree from Stonehill College. According to the report, the company will say he’s leaving due to “personal reasons” related to a recently-discovered illness. Either way, it means more rough times for Yahoo, which has seen what’s becoming a long list of CEOs come through its doors — Scott Thompson was appointed just this past January. Ross Levinsohn, the company’s global media head is set to take up executive duties on an interim basis.
Of course, none of this should be taken as fact until we hear from Yahoo itself — AllThingsD says that “The…

ATD: Yahoo’s CEO Scott Thompson to step down amidst degree scandal
Author: Tiffany Shoman
While thousands upon thousands of Americans are celebrating graduation weekend with degree in hand, it looks as if the CEO of one particular internet company will be wondering why he lied about his. After weeks of investigating, word on the street has it that freshly appointed (as in January 4th) CEO Scott Thompson will be “stepping down.” In other words, he’s being canned. The news comes from an All Things D report on the matter, with the official word expected soon. The scandal took hold a few weeks back, with the official Yahoo bio listing a computer science degree that he allegedly didn’t even have. The company line is that he’s bolting for “personal reasons,” but seriously — what are the chances these “reasons” would’ve emerged sans scandal? It’s bruited that Yahoo’s global media head Ross Levinsohn will be filling Scott’s shoes for now, but there’s no word yet on who the firm’s next CEO will be. It’s a shame, but it sure feels like a revolving door in Yahoo’s corner office.

Yahoo director in charge of Scott Thompson hire to step down from board
Author: Antonio Pierce
May has been a particularly rocky month for Yahoo since it came to light that CEO Scott Thompson was misrepresenting his educational background, falsely claiming to hold a computer science degree from Stonehill College. Things have taken another turn, with one of the board members in charge of the search team that brought Thompson to Yahoo announcing that she will not be seeking re-election to the board. According to the company, Patti Hart — who served as the chairperson of the CEO search team — made the decision at the behest of International Game Technology Inc., where she serves as the CEO. There’s no direct connection made between the Thompson revelations and Hart’s move, but the timing is certainly interesting. The company has…
