The Cosmonaut

Juan has been doing some ADR recording for the upcoming science-fiction feature film, The Cosmonaut.

Directed by Nicolas Alcala and produced by Carola Rodriguez and Bruno Teixidor, The Cosmonaut is the first feature-length project by Riot Cinema Collective and is notable for its use of crowdfunding and Creative Commons license in its production. Apart from being the first Spanish crowdfunded film, it will also be the first movie in the world that will put all the filming’s raw footage at the audience’s disposal. www.thecosmonaut.org / imdb.com

SGO Mistika

During the months of September and October we have completed audio postproduction for a series of tutorial videos for SGO’s revolutionary hardware/software, “Mistika”. Mistika is a complete tool that allows for all kinds of visual processing including the famous 3D effect we are so used to seeing at the cinema and on our screens at home.

Recent Hollywood blockbusters produced with Mistika include Peter Jackson’s “The Hobbit”, Ridley Scott’s “Prometheus” and Steven Spielberg’s “Tin Tin”. www.sgo.es/ www.youtube.com/user/SGOCorporation

Autumn Update

Welcome to the first official newsletter on our new website. Over the last few months we’ve been busy working on a wide range of projects: on the corporate/advertising side of things we’ve carried out recordings and sound design as well as music production for Johnson’s Baby, Compeed, Aviva, Fly Emirates, Publicis, Puleva, Mahou, Mostoles Technological Park, amongst others. We have also commenced work on the fourth season of the “PadelProTour” sports programme for RTVE – Teledeporte (Spanish state TV).

Edutainment, elearning and educational projects include over seventy songs composed and produced for twenty audio, text and digital books. As well as recording all music involved, we have have also produced all voice and sound design material.

Finally, and on the subject of music, Juan has also been doing some writing for pop duo AmaDeux (see & hear at www.amadeux.es). AmaDeux stormed onto the music scene last June with their first single titled, “The Night is on Fire” followed by “Baila para mi” in July. Both have reached number one on Sol TV’s music video chart… so if any of you people out there spent some time on Spanish beaches or islands you may have caught some of these original sounds that combine voice, strings and beats!
