The latest short film by Denis Rovira, LAZARUS TAXON, has been selected to premiere at Sitges Film Festival, 2008.
I wrote the score this summer, and we mixed in 5.1 surround just last week.
For more info on the film at Sitges, see here.
On the 9th Oct, the film will be shown right after the handing out of the Méliès D’or Prize.
NEWS! Lazarus Taxon has been named by Variety Magazine, in an web article on Sitges highlights.
“Don’t overlook the competition shorts. Many — including “Lazarus Taxon,” “Cotton Candy,” “Full Employment” — are said to be standouts.”
Looking foward to an exciting competition.

I just recently got a copy of the final mix, with some very interesting sound design mixed with the music.
