http://adrop.film/ http://on.fb.me/1oQJzHu “It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane.” - PHILIP K. DICK Synopsis In the vertical skeleton of an aborted and abandoned megalopolis, a man stands on the edge of the void. The only escape from this forsaken place is through the depths of the unknown… Idea The main motivation behind this short film is to create a movie that has a strong visual narrative and yet leave the audience free to understand it in their own way. More than free interpretation, the film balances itself between multiple meanings and ideas and ultimately forces the viewers to make their own choices. This involvement, this tipping of the balance engages the spectators and from the scope of themes addressed in the film let them shape the story in their personal way. After many months of hard work, we are very happy to share this film with you. Director: Julien Vanhoenacker DOP: Pete Pithai Smithsuth Music/Sound: Nicolas Vitte Starring: Alex Winters, Markus Waldow, Adriane Maiolino, Anastasia Shevchenko, Ann Krav Produced by: Claire Teng, Ankit Laxmi Vajpayee, Honey Sarinnaree Khumaiumcharean

1976 meditates on presentiment and sound. The surreal short crafts an unsettling atmosphere of foreshadowing and immanent change. A clever combination of live footage and CGI, the film allows its soundtrack to drive the visuals. Everyday objects reverberate, twist and react to an oncoming pulse of events as they converge on a farmhouse lost in rural America. A film by Aggressive, The Loop & Echoic. Credits: Production Co: Aggressive Directors: Alex Topaller, Dan Shapiro Art Director: Alex Mikhaylov CG Supervisor: Max Chelyadnikov Editor: Adam Thomson Music & Sound Design: David Johnston, Tom Gilbert DP: Eli Born Producer: Kelvin Craver Production Designer: Geoff Flint CG Artists: Max Chelyadnikov, Dmitry Paukov, Alex Frukta, Vladimir Tomin, Daniel Rybkin, Valdemaras Dzengo, Danil Krivoruchko, Roman Senko, Vladislav Solovjov Production Manager: Dustin Pownall Color Grade: Marshall Plante

Terraforming depicts a crystal planet that has been discovered in the galaxy. It follows a young cartographer’s journey to the planet, where he engineers the environment to be habitable for humans using various tools of exploration. The Dune Clock tells the time with 3 million precision cut crystals; the minutes pass with falling crystals and the hour with the digital numbers. The Dune Table creates an array of miniature landscapes using sound frequencies ranging from 100Hz-10,000Hz demonstrating the planet’s ever shifting surface. The first ever object to be designed by man 1.7 million years ago was a flint hand axe. Flint has the same molecular structure as a crystal and they both consist of silica. The project juxtaposes the flint hand axe with the latest crystal technology; Xero chaton the world’s smallest precision cut crystal measuring 0.6mm in diameter, smaller than a grain of sand. Terraforming is a project commissioned for Designer of the Future 2015 by Swarovski at Design Miami/ Basel. www.studioswine.com http://bit.ly/1oEsAr9www.studioswine.com http://bit.ly/1oEsAr9

How do you film a conversation? Most likely, you’re going to block the actors, set up the camera, and do shot/reverse shot. But where do you put the camera? What lens do you use? And how do you cut back and forth? Today, I consider the Coen brothers — Joel & Ethan — and see how these choices lend a particular feel to their version of shot/reverse shot.

I spent two weeks in Paris this summer exploring the city and capturing many of the touristy things to do. It was my first time there so visiting the places in the video were very cool. Luckily my girlfriend is a Paris expert so that made getting around pretty easy. (Try to spot her cameos) I shot all time and hyper-lapses on a Sony A7s with three lenses (Canon 16-35mm f/2.8, Canon 24-105mm f/4, and Tamron 150-600mm f/5-6.3). All shots were done either handheld or on a tripod. This video was shot and edited by Tyler Fairbank.

C'est quelques heures seulement avant mon vol pour l'Indonésie que j'ai finalement pris ma décision: je vais amener avec moi mes seuls objets de valeurs que je possède: Mon Laptop et ma caméra. Je me suis dit: Hey, se faire voler ou briser de l'équipement, ça arrive juste aux autres… Quel imbécile j'étais. Trois semaines après mon arrivée j'ai dû regarder un jeune thaï (non-anglophone) démonter ma caméra en petites pièces pour régler mon problème. Une des rares fois dans ma vie et j'ai cru que mon coeur allait s'arrêter. Amener ma caméra 35mm a sans doute été la meilleure décision que j'ai prise. Malgré que l'équipement digital est au coeur de mon travail, j'ai toujours trouvé que le résultat d'une bonne photo à film ne sera jamais égalée par n'importe quelle nouvelle technologie. Le mélange entre les deux nous donne de quoi de vraiment pas pire. Jugez donc par vous-même! Pour mieux voir les photos: http://bit.ly/1LCqJs6 Musique: Milk&Bone - Easy to Read

„The film takes us into the murky waters of fantasy. With a cool kind of magic, this delicately stylized film draws us into various layers of reality, as we plunge from silent melancholia into the graphic frenzy of competitive sports, where everything is turned upside down.

We had so much fun putting together every best picture ever, we thought we’d highlight every best visual effects winner next. For the 1927/28 Academy awards, the award was for engineering effects. There was no award again until 1938 where it was called a special award “for outstanding achievement in creating special photographic and sound effects. The very next year the award was combined with sound effects and called the Award for Special Effects. It wasn’t until 1963 that the award became the Award for Best Visual Effects (which it is still called today). It was given every year from 1963 to present, with the exception of 1973. Hope you enjoy! **Also we apologize for the two title mistakes.

When the guys at Interscope and Blood Company approached us about doing a music video for Zedd’s Paper Cut, we knew it would be the perfect opportunity to try out an idea we had been toying with for a while: gathering a dream team of some of our favourite artists from around the world to create one cohesive film using a variety of styles. After coming up with the storyline we put together a script, storyboard and animatic and then divided the shots between ourselves and 10 of our favourite collaborators, with the only guideline being to work in black and white with a hand drawn feel. www.goldenwolf.tv Produced and directed by Golden Wolf Creative director: Ingi Erlingsson Art director: Ewen Stenhouse Producer: Ant Baena Storyboard / Layouts: Pedro Vergani, Victorin Ripert Design: Ewen Stenhouse, Pedro Vergani, Victorin Ripert, Johan Rivet, Marilou Mao, Arthus Pilorget Animation: Maxime Delalande, Pedro Vergani, Tim Whiting, Mattias breitholtz, Marilou Mao, Sabine Pedersen, David Bell, Pierre Rutz, Xavier Sailliol Collaborators: - Manson / http://manson.st/ - Tom Bunker / http://bit.ly/1omL9jw - Henrique Barone / http://bit.ly/1oI0Vpz - Simon Leclerc / http://bit.ly/1oI0VpA - Robert Valley / http://bit.ly/1omLcf7 - Alex Grigg / http://bit.ly/1oI0XOe - Vida Vega / http://vidavega.com/ - Shishi Yamazaki / http://bit.ly/1omL9zL - Camilo Huinca / http://bit.ly/1oI0XOf - Benjy Brooke / http://bit.ly/1omL9zOwww.goldenwolf.tv Produced and directed by Golden Wolf Creative director: Ingi Erlingsson Art director: Ewen Stenhouse Producer: Ant Baena Storyboard / Layouts: Pedro Vergani, Victorin Ripert Design: Ewen Stenhouse, Pedro Vergani, Victorin Ripert, Johan Rivet, Marilou Mao, Arthus Pilorget Animation: Maxime Delalande, Pedro Vergani, Tim Whiting, Mattias breitholtz, Marilou Mao, Sabine Pedersen, David Bell, Pierre Rutz, Xavier Sailliol Collaborators: - Manson / http://manson.st/ - Tom Bunker / http://bit.ly/1omL9jw - Henrique Barone / http://bit.ly/1oI0Vpz - Simon Leclerc / http://bit.ly/1oI0VpA - Robert Valley / http://bit.ly/1omLcf7 - Alex Grigg / http://bit.ly/1oI0XOe - Vida Vega / http://vidavega.com/ - Shishi Yamazaki / http://bit.ly/1omL9zL - Camilo Huinca / http://bit.ly/1oI0XOf - Benjy Brooke / http://bit.ly/1omL9zO

Connected is a portrait of a woman grappling with aging, self-perception, and transformation in a technologically optimized world. Jackie (Pamela Anderson) is a burnt-out AuraCycle instructor in the midst of a midlife crisis. She’s obsessed with self-improvement podcasts (voiced by Jane Fonda), and she is soon drawn to an advanced yet enigmatic wellness spa that promises to enhance her mind, body and soul. Guided by her effortless and nubile mentor, Luna (Dree Hemingway), Jackie will give up anything to feel “connected" – to herself, to the future, and to a precarious sense of perfection. Director’s Statement: Connected began when I met Pamela Anderson for the first time. After having explored issues of body modification and transformation in some of my photography and film projects, I was ready to create a narrative film which investigated these topics in a deeper, more grounded way. I knew that I wanted the project to surround an iconic sex symbol in the tradition of Marilyn Monroe and Bridgette Bardot. I’m fascinated by the level of mystery and mythology that surrounds these women. Their allure rests mainly on the surface, and that leaves me to wonder what lies beneath. Pamela Anderson is the sex symbol of my generation. Even before adolescence I remember posters of her plastered on bedroom walls. Men and women alike can instantly recall the visual of her running down the beach in a red bathing suit, and she’s still one of the most iconic emblems of America around the world. During my first meeting with Pamela, I was surprised to discover how thoughtful and open she is about her life and legacy. What is the evolution of a performer who has made her mark on the world with her body, something that inevitably depreciates with age? I explained that I wanted to ask these questions in the film, and to bring forth a vulnerable performance that blurs the lines between reality and fiction. Instead of focusing on the obvious relationship to sex, I wanted to focus on introspection and transformation. To some degree, we all are trading on idealized versions of ourselves. This has never been more clear with the advent of social media, where our public identities are entirely self-constructed and instantly surveyed, ranked, immortalized or trolled. For me Pamela is also an archetype of California culture, which is at once obsessed with the shallowness of youth and beauty, as well as the more existential search for self-help, wellness, and rehabilitation. Both of these polarities lead to a certain kind of alienation that I wanted to explore: the alienation and emptiness of beauty and objectification of oneself, and the alienation of continuously searching for something deeper and more authentic. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that these two seemingly opposed obsessions coexist in places like Malibu. I believe, in fact, that they’re related to a singular kind of searching, which I wanted viewers to palpably feel and empathize with when watching the film. Intimacy and finding strength in being vulnerable is a big part of Pamela’s public story, as well as the community-driven, wellness culture element of Connected. Working with Pamela has been an incredible journey. She truly understands the process and precariousness of self-invention and reinvention. After all, she began her life as a flat-chested brunette from Canada and has evolved into a blond bombshell actress and animal rights activist - epitomizing the ideals of the “California Dream.” As an actress, Pamela is extraordinary to collaborate with because she works hard to understand the vision, and then fully commits to realizing it. She was also comfortable with my introducing elements of documentary into the film, blurring the line between her character and her own experiences with aging and soul searching. This took an enormous amount of bravery on her part, and helping her draw out this strength was extremely enlightening for me as well. It was an absolute honor to work with Jane Fonda as the voice of Jackie’s wellness guru, which was also meant to parallel her public story, as well as Dree Hemingway as Luna. Growing up in Malibu, Dree acutely understood her character and brought so much personal experience and depth to the performance. There still remains this idea that intelligence and beauty are two separate qualities that represent two very different kinds of people. I find this to be not only anti-female, but also wholly untrue. For me each of the women in this film actively demonstrates that these traits most certainly do coexist. I hope the film furthers the conversation about our relationship to beauty, aging and technology, as well as each and every individual’s potential for reinvention and transformation. - Luke Gilford

With Salman Rushdie’s reading as the only audio in the film, the images bring to life a series questions being posed by an omniscient narrator about the views and loyalties of a bodyguard, among a group of bodyguards entrusted with the protection of an important and dubious leader. The film explores the nuances of this relationship as well as shows what can potentially happen when a bodyguard intentionally or unintentionally relaxes his guard.
