Rising: Rebuilding Ground Zero

September 9, 2011

 

Its hard to imagine that just 10 years ago this weekend, the events of September 11th changed the lives of every American. In such a short amount of time, we have come so far in rebuilding.

 

When asked to be a part of this project, HOBO jumped at the opportunity to join Steven Spielberg, Dreamworks, Danny Forster, and KPI to help honor the memory of 9/11 and its victims.

 

Please join us this Sunday, for the re-airing marathon of all 6 one-hour episodes of Rising: Rebuilding Ground Zero starting at 5pm on the Science Channel.

FLEA MAN TV Series: Mixes for the Market…

June 17, 2011

We Hobos have been known to frequent a flea market here and there.  When our friends at KPI called us to mix their new TV series, FLEA MAN, for the National Geographic Channel, we couldn’t say no to that deal!

 

Engineers Julienne Guffain and Chris Stangroom not only mixed, recorded the narration, and cleaned up the audio for the TV series, but picked up a few good flea market “dos & don’ts” along the way.  They got first hand experiencing watching the FLEA MAN host, Jimmy Kaplow, help people sell their belongings at flea markets all over the country.

 

So if you have a basement full of stuff you’ve been meaning to sell, check out the FLEA MAN TV series.   The Two Episode Premiere Event is Friday, June 17 at 8 & 9pm on the National Geographic Channel.

Indie Film Finds Action @HOBOAudio

September 24, 2010

HOBO hearts indies!  We’ve just been awarded sound post duties for Woodshed Entertainment’s upcoming film The Normals starring Bryan Greenberg, known for his roles in films (The Perfect Score, Prime), and television (‘One Tree Hill’, HBO’s ‘How to Make It in America’ ) and as a musician.  Director Kevin Connors will take on screenwriter Chris Ciancimino’s adaption of David Gilbert’s novel.  Woodshed had previously hired HOBO for foley & mix for their short Chicken Pox.

Here are HOBO’s other top news items about recent collaborations with independent filmmakers:
  • Chris Stangroom recently completed the final mix for the complex, conspiracy-driven sci-fi film Zenith, which premieres at the IFC Center October 1st.  Stangroom worked closely with director/writer/producer Vlad Nikolic, co-producer Jason Robards III, and composer Luigi Colarullo to construct a disturbing soundscape for the “retro-futuristic steam-punk thriller”.  The film is sure to alarm viewers with its initial dramatization of Stanley Milgram’s Obedience to Authority experiment before weaving a set of stories about a father and son during two different time periods.  Midnight screenings of the film begin 10/1 at the IFC Center (323 6th Ave. at West 3rd St).  See the trailer in all its glory on iTunes here
  • Julienne Guffain continues to mix for Director Mike Plunkett as he builds his riveting film CHARGE.  The documentary explores how the sudden worldwide demand for lithium will impact Bolivia’s landscape, economy and indigenous cultures, following the discovery that 50% of the world’s lithium deposits lie beneath its immense salt flat, Salar de Uyuni.  The Cinereach grant recipient has enjoyed a successful run at IFP’s Film Week, gathering buzz for its latest screening…
  • Shortly after emerging from HOBO, Amos Poe & his team rocked their red carpet premiere at the 67th Venice International Film Festival – and his film La Commedia was received by one critic as a “mesmerizing experimental meditation on Dante’s Divine Comedy“, a standout amongst the Hollywood hype and those questioning Tarantino‘s taste as director of the jury…
