Venice is not just a stage set. It is also a city with a resident population, which has productive activities, transportation and services. But how does the “Venice system” work? How do the tides in the lagoon behave? How are the canals formed? And the embankments? What’s under the buildings? Directed by Nicolò Scibilia (www.teodolinda.it). Motion graphics: pholpo. Produced by Insula spa, operational division of Venice Municipality. www.venicebackstage.org
I love the "behind the scenes" of life, the situations and people that enrich our lives with their invisible presence. The people responsible for the food we prepare and eat, the people that make our clothes and the mobile devices we use every day. The people that create and produce the culture we enjoy. Right now in a studio somewhere there is an artist rehearsing a performance for what feels like the hundredth time, just so that it can look absolutely effortless when you see it.
And yet, I have to admit I never considered the behind the scenes of a city. And certainly never thought of what happens with a city like Venice. How does the "Venice system" work? How do the tides in the lagoon behave? How are the canals formed?
We've seen the city in many movies, and in this short film we take a step backstage.
One of our most recent shoots, titled Breakfast Interrupted, is now live for your viewing pleasure. Shot primarily with the Phantom HD Gold at 1000fps, the piece is designed to showcase food in a beautiful and unusual way. The idea was brought to us by our friends at www.marlinnetwork.com, for their annual breakfast event. More at our blog: http://brutonstroube.com/blog.aspx?post=122 ©2011 www.brutonstroube.com
“Breakfast Interrupted” is a whimsical slow motion ode to breakfast. The video begins with luscious imagery of a lavish breakfast spread, before slow motion mayhem begins at the 25 second mark. “Breakfast, Interrupted” is the creation of Bruton Stroube Studios, a St. Louis production company with a focus on food and beverage commercials. They’ve also posted a making of video for the slow mo curious.

Breakfast is my favorite meal. Every Saturday morning I meet friends for breakfast to catch up, celebrate the good things that happened and let go of the challenging moments of the week. But we never had a breakfast like this.
Title: 'Above Everything Else' Agency: N/A - direct client Client: Grupo Cosentino Product: Worktop Brand: Silestone Production company: The Mushroom Company Director/DoP/Art direction/Post/Editor: Alex Roman Original idea/Concept: Alex Roman Additional CGI: Juan Ángel García Martinez Music: ZipZap Music Spot TV 60" www.thirdseventh.com
“Above Everything Else”, an ad for Silestone countertops by Alex Roman, is pretty impressive. The lush HD imagery of objects cascading on to the client’s product is kitchen & bath fetishism at its finest. But what makes this little advert so extraordinary is the fact that each frame is computer generated. To call it photorealistic doesn’t really do it justice.
Previously we posted about Roman's work "The Third and Seventh."
Based on a true legend of the famous unsolved code. The film contains 16 hidden messages that hold clues to the characters' secrets. Eight are fairly easy requiring only a close eye.
