Earthquake Δ Valle del Belice

Here’s a beautiful, atmospheric and touching new time lapse video from the wonderful SicilyLapse filmmakers illustrating the sad events of 1968’s earthquake in Western Sicily:

“On 15 January 1968 a violent earthquake affected a wide area of western Sicily, involving dozens of countries, especially those of the Belice Valley. We counted 370 dead, 1,000 injured and about 70,000 displaced persons.”

Screen Horror Film For Release On Vimeo On Demand

TRAILER FOR "SCREEN"

Screen is a great looking new horror film from David Paul Baker which features some of my music and is due for imminent release on Vimeo On Demand. The film is about a group of horror fans who are found dead in front of an old drive-in screen. We go back 24 hours to follow two of the characters from this group who discover people died at the drive-in back in the 70s and the screen is haunted… The movie was shot between Tulsa and Cleveland, Oklahoma and bristles with a style reminiscent of horror movies like Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Halloween mixed with a classic grindhouse feel.

“Simultaneously reminiscent of Grindhouse Exploitation films and the new and old waves of “found footage” flicks, and with an opening newsreel sequence, and that kind of foreboding, Tubular Bells-ish music that just isn’t used in movies often enough anymore, SCREEN, directed by David Paul Baker is low-budget, self-sufficient Indie gold at it’s very best.”

Another one of my music tracks has been used in basketball giants the L.A. Lakers’ opening intro video, played before their games at their home stadium, the Staples Center in Los Angeles. This time, my orchestral action track Excelsior was used in the video to the right which was projected onto the huge screens among the crowds before the game.
