Stash 24 marks our 2 nd anniversary and we're celebrating with an
inspirational line-up of animation, VFX and motion graphics from
some of the most influential talent on the planet including Chris
Cunningham, Michel Gondry, Logan, Motion Theory, Smith & Foulkes,
Psyop, Buf and Shilo. Any BONUS films on this issue? Oh yes . all
five winners of the 2006 Rushes Soho Shorts Festival including
director Run Wrake's manically twisted .Rabbit.. BONUS music
tracks on Stash 24 come courtesy of white-hot NY indie label The
Agriculture including work from DJ Olive, Lloop and David Last.
The Stash 24 party gets off to a fast start with a crazed swarm
of flies for Caltec from Animal Logic, silky smooth graphics for
HP from Motion Theory, fun retro-graphics for the Gap from Shilo
and Method, sweet and cheery cartoon violence from Bl:nd for
Specialized, frenetic psycho-graphics for Coke from Transistor,
a tragic tale of a beef-addicted 3D lout from Oslo studio Qvisten
and Loyalkaspar getting cheeky for Kayak.com.
The broadcast design section hits the dance floor with Buf and
Fox sports re-teamed for another stunning spot of epic proportions
and new-comer Blacklist makes their debut with Psyop and against
all odds for ESPN. Other nice moves include English & Pocket
spicing up News Asia, Concrete Pictures making a play for GSN,
and Freestyle Collective courting MTV K.
The last half of this Stash 24 shindig is a treasure hunt of
unexpected treats where you'll find the world premier of .Stand.,
a mesmerizing new short film from Stephen Fitzgerald, an
ambitiously spacey Hello Kitty film from NY's Pinthin, Chel
White's near-genius .Harrowdown Hill. video for Thom Yorke with
Bent, Logan's trippy new .Get Together. video for Madonna, .The
Reality Project. from director Domenico Bartolo of 21-19 (on the
cover), Chris Cunningham's creeped-out work for The Horrors via
Golden Square, Leftchannel's .Blissful., and Smith & Foulkes
sensational new .Videogame. spot for Coke through Nexus. Other
must-meet Stash 24 party guests include Helios and Head Gear from
Toronto, Fatface from Hong Kong, Sherbet from London, Partizan
from Paris, Mercurio Films from Milan, Cluster Studio from Mexico
and No-domain from Barcelona.
Don't worry, you have a full month to recover until Stash 25.
