So the Doha Tribeca Festival 2009 is now finished.
By all accounts, it was an incredible weekend - and if the thousands upon thousands of beautiful photographs, and hundreds of pages of awesome reviews, news & information are anything to go by - something very special happened in Qatar this year.
In the last blog, I mentioned a collaboration with Jamie Riordan on the Zoetrope trailer for the festival.
This piece was broadcast across the globe, in just about every possible media, - and I must admit I would love to be able to find out how many different parts of the world it has played, and to whom - but unfortunately, that's something I'll really never know.
The audio design went through various incarnations before the final sounds were laid in, and originally the ideas for the music score were vastly different. However I think the finished trailer is absolutely appropriate in terms of getting across the energy and vibe of the festival.
I also think Jamie did a great job of directing, and the piece really speaks for itself.
Working on this really reminded me that the powerful chemistry and energy created by image and sound really can represent the language of the world.
So here's the longer version of the Zoetrope trailer for the Doha Tribeca Film Festival.
Until next time - over and out!
