Stash 47 delivers 90 solid minutes of eye-twitching, brain-banging
inspiration and insight stuffed into one sleek package including
behind-the-scenes extras, bonus films, bonus MP3 tracks and a 40-page
book of stills, production notes, credits and links for every project.
PLUS you.ll also find the latest Stash BONUS DISK packed with in-
depth selections of work from Buraco de Bala, Kotoc, Tribbo Post,
Grow Design Work and Packshot.
The main program opens with Goodby and Animal Logic.s spectacular
exercise in pushing the speed limit of a genetically enhanced rabbit
for Comcast and then zigzags sharply as we connect with an evil
microwave-generated cell phone demon from The Mill for Net10, lyrical
musical dexterity for HP from Psyop and a series of surreal glimpses
of a dystopian future for Metal Gear Solid 4 from Logan.
The broadcast design section gets off to a massive start with BUF and
Fox Sports teaming up for the MLB All-Star game, followed by six out-
of-control clips for Fuse from Blacklist directors Cisma, Pistachios,
Friends with You, David Lobser, Holbrooks and Nanospore, a fiery
double-decker driving stunt from Absolute for Channel4, killer-robot
soccer stars from Kotoc for Cuarto, dangerous skateboard action from
Royale for Fuel and a frantically strange MTV promo from PepperMelon
called .The Fabulous Farting Valley of the Fat Farts.. Seriously.
The second half of 47 takes us all over the planet and all over the
map in terms of styles, techniques and tone. Paris-based Deubal.s
retro-flavored film titles lead us into the dense and moody music
video for Manchester Orchestra from Hollywood.s Destroy Rock Music,
followed by CG prowess from both Thornberg & Forester in New York
for the AICP and Stuttgart studio BlackMountain VFX for Lassa tires.
We also stopover with Sehsucht in Frankfurt, Passion Pictures and
Nexus Productions in London, View in Paris, dyrdee in Berlin,
Metropolitana in Barcelona, againstallodds in Stockholm, Dancing
Diablo in Caracas, Digital 21 in Sao Paulo and Renmotion in Melbourne.
And we close the issue with a short film unlike any you have ever
seen. It.s called .The Life Size Zoetrope. and was directed by Mark
Simon Hewis for Animate Projects and Channel4. Nineteen months in the
making, the film wrangles several dozen volunteers working oversized
flipbooks while whirling around a carnival ride. The result is both
mesmerizing and spectacular.
The BEHIND THE SCENES features on 47 give you a look into the toil
and trouble that went into creating Logan.s series of innovative mock-
commercials for Metal Gear Solid 4, Cocoe.s stylish Micropoems for
laSexta, Destroy Rock Music.s rich and layered .I Can Barely Breathe.
music video for Manchester Orchestra and BlackMountain.s pristinely
rendered spot for Lassa.
