Nanosporin A.I.

Hot of the presses. Lyman just finished composing the soundtrack for Stephen Fishman's latest animated short Nanosporin A.I. Stay tuned for a screening near you. In honor of Omar from The Wire---"Oh, Indeed."

How much art can one take?

Yes, we love Salmon and Cheese

Check out some recent voice overs we recorded for a series of Whole Foods Market podcasts.

Wild Alaskan Salmon

The Crave Brothers Cheese

LIVESTRONG Challenge Cancer Video

LIVESTRONG Challenge Cancer Video from Alpheus Media on Vimeo.

We had the opportunity to work with Alpheus Media on this incredibly powerful project. They shot it in the studio and Parke worked closely with Director Matt Hames to establish this edgy, high contrasty look to enhance the content.

Creatively, we love projects like these because they were shot to be color corrected. We love the RED shot flat because it gives us an enormous amount of latitude in post to create a highly stylized look to compliment the message or narrative.

Bromst Vegetable Oil Mission Trailer from Stuck On On on Vimeo.

Dan Deacon and his band put out a plea on Pitchfork Media to help them garner used vegetable oil for this tour bus. 5 gallons = free entrance to show. 30+ gallons = band cooks you dinner on the bus. We went for 30+ and recruited some of our friends. We documented our process. Got to hang out with the band on their bus outside Emo's in Austin. It was totally worth it.

Many thanks to St. David's Episcopal Church, Jeff @ Risky BBQ, Stephen Fishman, Melinda Barsales, Brandon Webb, Bess Bistro, Enoteca, Five Guys Burgers, Nuevo Leon, Austin Coffee Roasters and of course Dan Deacon and his band and Geoff the oil master.

Fall in Love with the new Dell Adamo laptop

We recently had the chance to make music for Chris Blankenship over at Rebel Rebel for a video launching the new Adamo laptop from Dell.

Nick's Sausage Party

Our friend and dynamo colorist Nick Smith recently hosted a Sausage Birthday Party at his house. Dazed and Confused star Wiley Wiggins was there and shot this funny little sequence. Lyman made the cut. He has to dress his dog with mustard and relish. It ended up on Roger Ebert's blog.

Brewster McGrackle

Our friend Stephen at Mac&Cheez called us up and asked if we wanted to work on this spot for a contest sponsored by Brewster McCracken. Winning spot will show locally during The Daily Show and The Colbert Report.

Oldy but a goody. Ran into a friend from Apple who needed music...

P.S. Strong Language. Not for the kiddies.

The Eyes of Me: SXSW World Premiere

We're finishing up The Eyes of Me this week because it is premiering Wed., March 18th at 7:15 p.m. during SXSW.

An extraordinary look at 4 blind teens. The parallel stories of 2 freshmen and 2 seniors unfold over the course of one dynamic year at the Texas School for the Blind in Austin. EYES offers a fresh perspective on growing up and fitting in.

Distilled from over 250 hours of footage, this experiential doc captures a textured portrait of its characters. Director Keith Maitland worked closely with the film's subjects to produce sequences of stylized rotoscopic animation to complement the film's observational aesthetic.

Forced to confront the world without sight, they share their thoughts, their perceptions, their inner-visions of the outer world. You cannot understand their perceptions without challenging your own.

How do you see yourself when you can't see at all?

Secret Mac&Cheez Pollinating

Details to follow. We're collaborating with our friend and director/designer/animator Stephen Fishman from Mac&Cheez on our vision of Austin. We'll keep you posted.

State of Tomorrow Returns

Update: You can see all spots here



We'll keep you posted on the February air date, but we just finished mixing and color correcting a series of TV spots and a 30 min documentary for Alpheus Media's Emmy awarding winning series The State of Tomorrow.

"From 21st-century cancer care to alternative energy sources, public higher education innovators across Texas are working to solve our state's toughest challenges. State of Tomorrow™ highlights their progress with a Lone Star EMMY® Award-winning series that offers personal stories from cancer patients, hurricane survivors, farmers and teachers, and interviews with researchers, scientists and doctors who are shaping the future of our world."

SWA: February is Black History Month

Parke just finished color correcting a TV spot for Action Figure/GSD&M Idea City/SWA. It was shot on the red by the superstar team DP Shane Shelley and Director Dan Brown. Produced by Susan Lazarus and edited by Ariel Quintans. Check out some stills:

Vignette Village Extravaganza

Lyman made some killer music for Shiny Object's Vignette Village project. Lyman also collaborated with Marty Lester at Tequila Mockingbird.

We got to attend the launch and peek behind the stage to see the massive speakers and matrix-like cables. It was spectacular. The piece reminded us of one of our favorite artists Jason Salavon and his Shoes, Domestic Production, 1960-1998.

We do have say it was a little strange to kick out the jams at 8:45 a.m. in the morning at the Hilton. The final video projection measured 100 ft x 15 ft.
