Speechless...

Actors without words are like Jockeys without horses (I'm so good at these analogy things it's not even funny). Anthony Marinelli and Music Forever have just completed sound design and music on over 30 shorts for WGA featuring actors speaking out. Or rather, not speaking, and making a loud statement. These are beautiful "Andy Warhol" screen test 'esque, with each one being completely unique. No agency was involved, these were all done pro-bono and at each artists discretion. Anthony's subtle and perfect accompanying sound design and music really compliment this powerful campaign. Please take a look at the press release (thanks Hesh) and website, new episodes are being released daily.

Sway Locks It Up

S/W/A/Y/ Studio has CG on lock. They’re so good you don’t even know they’ve been there. Specialties include photo-real anything, but specifically landscapes, environments, tabletop, and cars. Yup, I said cars, and they are the best. The half artists/half scientists at Sway have perfected the elusive CG car using their patented Drive-A-Tron™ driving simulator. If you haven’t been lucky enough to take it for a spin yet, call us. It’s like a video game, complete with steering wheel, slap shift, and sound effects. It creates 100% physically correct car movements and reactions, all based on the specific specs of the vehicle. The results are astounding, and it’s makes shooting literally anywhere in the world a piece of cake. Click HERE for Sway’s show reel, and HERE for the Drive-A-Tron montage. GAME – Only one of the cars in the montage is real, and we betcha a sushi/saki lunch you can’t tell which.
