Podington Bear

I referenced in my last post, Podington Bear A.K.A. Chris Crouch, has been the Tree City Films Festival's sort of go-to artist in reference to the music we use for our demo reels, tutorials, and interviews. In the realm of royalty-free music, it's hard to come by great music created by great people and Podington Bear is one of the few artist that I like to think are indie-firendly and quality-oriented. His website is The Sound of Picture where you can find his library and pricing model. Below is and explanation of how the site works as well as some examples of how the TCFF has used his music in the past.

The Chasing Tool According to Gijs Bakker

I was thinking about the properties of the Cartoon Network Rebrand post from Chris and wondered "what would that look like on film?" Not only is this an example of what a similar technique would look like on film but what it would look like used with an interview. Do you think it works?

Modern day Leonardo Da Vinci?

Apart from the fact that this dude appears to be a master artist, I especially like his pervy fixation on nude sculptures, he also made a totally badass near-perpetual motion device. I also may start rocking the white jump-suit-open-to-show-the-chest-hair look.
