8's Company

So what's a crowd? A dozen? We don't know. But we were pleased as punch to host our friends from Gyro, Legwork Studios and a few folks representing their client today too. All eight of em got together in Coupe's Studio A with Senior Engineer Ed Kaufman to direct a VO session via ISDN with a great LA-based talent.

Derby, Baby!

We've been working on a ton of great feature films lately (Did you catch the article in The Daily Camera on the CO film scene?), one of which is Derby, Baby! - a film from Robin Bond, Ron Patrick and Dave Wruck. This home-grown production has had (and accomplished) some pretty audacious goals. From getting Juliette Lewis to narrate the film, to some very successful crowd-funding, this team has made shit happen in a big way. Check out some of Robin's interesting insight on their blog here: http://www.robinbondmedia.com/blog/girl-power-enables-film-distribution-to-go-diy-robin-bond 



”Derby, Baby!” is now complete and is currently on the film festival circuit.  The film premiered on the East Coast at the Atlanta Film Festival on March 31 and on the West Coast at the Sonoma International Film Festival on April 14.

Send us your ideas!

As you may have heard, we've been running a fun little contest. Here's the writeup it got in The Denver Egotist, our favorite online tattler:
Recently, Boulder’s Coupe Studios challenged Egotist readers to pose sound questions via Twitter in preparation for their new “Ideas. Amplified.” campaign from gyro’s Denver office. The crowd-sourcing initiative launches today (you'll see it over there on the right) and features original animated soundscapes by Coupe, animated visuals by gyro AD and resident doodle maestro, Rob Lewis, and questions submitted by Egotist readers. Writer Ricky Lambert and ECD Cameron Day pitched in on the concept, along with Coupe’s multi-faceted sound designers and composers. Credit for the twittered questions appear in each banner. Tweet your question today for consideration in future banners — the weirder, the better.


Meantime, check out the wicked ideas your peers have been submitting here: https://twitter.com/#!/search/realtime/%40coupestudios
