Spielberg's "On the Lot" Top 100 Director Alex Ferrari Making Some Major Noise
Hollywood, FL (PRWEB) June 8, 2007 -- Since not making it to the finals of Spielberg's On the Lot, writer/director Alex Ferrari has not slowed down. Known for his break-though film Broken, (http://www.whatisbroken.com) which became one of the most celebrated indie short films in recent years. Broken has been screened in over 100 international film festivals and covered by over 250 media outlets around the world. Also, completely self-distributed the Broken: Special Edition DVD has sold over 5000 units world-wide.
I'm Italian too..and I got sexy curves!... have some fun and meet new friends...Rate a cutie!!
The film also spawned an art book (released by Deivant Comics). A hefty 100+ page art book that illustrates the long pre-production and production process that artist Dan Cregan, Ken Robkin and director Alex Ferrari went through creating the world of Broken. This tribute showcases conceptual art, character designs, on-set photos, full short film screenplay, and visual effect breakdowns. (http://www.deviant-comics.com)
This book will whet the appetite of any Broken enthusiast with never before released artwork from the feature film version. This pictorial feast is a must-have for any indie filmmaker, art connoisseur, or film fan. It is proof that an indie film can be taken to a higher level.
"Broken is essentially a demonstration of the mastery of horror imagery and techniques...effective and professional. Looking forward to 'Broken: The Feature.'
- Roger Ebert (Film Critic Chicago Sun-Times)
"Broken has all the visual potency of the likes of The Matrix and Fight Club."
- FilmFocus UK
"Allow me to introduce you to the next big thing. ...the sweetest indie trailer this side of the Matrix.
They have single handedly taken indie to the next level . This $8,000 dollar film looks as good as Sin City.
- MoviesOnline
"4 STARS! 'Broken' looks great, sounds great and threatens to put a bullet between your eyes right from the get go."
- Film Threat
Produced through his production company The Enigma Factory, Inc. (http://www.enigmafactory.com), his new short film "Cyn" (http://www.alittlecyn.com) is a trimmed down version of a longer script writer/director Alex Ferrari created for his upcoming feature film project called "Red Princess Blues." As he developed the "Princess" short film he noticed that it had less and less in common with his characters and storyline of his feature project.
So when Alex made the Top 100 (out of over 12,000) of Steven Speilberg's "On the Lot" and they asked him to create a short film in 6 days, "Cyn" was born. Cyn was made on a 6 day schedule (from script to final output) for under $1000 and boosts one of the craziest end title sequences ever created for a five min short film. Think of throwing an atom bomb on a roach, completely over the top.
A quick synopsis: "Cyn is a twisted tale by writer/director Alex Ferrari about Cynthia, a young woman who is taken away by two psychopaths (Mr. Sugar and Otto) in the middle of the night to an old abandoned kindergarten. Cyn quickly turns the tables on them and soon the night becomes a cat and mouse mind game. While this drama is unfolding a lone figure watches from a close circuit monitor. Who is Cynthia and what the hell is going on in this twisted tale?"

The Production Breakdown:
Friday: Write the script and prep the shoot
Saturday: Casting and prep the shoot; also begin working on opening titles & prep visual effects
Sunday: Rehearse, Fight Choreography and Production Design the location
Monday: Shoot day
Tuesday: Editing and color correction; begin scoring process, sound design & visual effects
Wednesday: Finish scoring, sound design, composites of visual effects and master output.
The Pre-Production:
Cyn was shot on the Panasonic HVX200 in HD 720p Native using four 8 gig P2 cards. This allowed the director to have his assistant editor/cameraman Ricky Pierre-Louis to download the footage on a Final Cut Pro editing system while still on set. The workflow was amazingly fast and the images were beautiful.
This time around the director wanted to have a small fight scene in Cyn so he brought on Martial Art Specialist and fight Choreographer Anthony Cory. Tony worked with the actors heavily on rehearsal day to ensure not only their safety but to make sure the scene really rocked!
The Production:
With such a tight schedule, a killer producer was needed. Enter producer extraordinaire Kyra Ozuna of K2 Productions in Miami, FL. Kyra has been producing for years. When Alex needed a co-pilot producer on this crazy journey, he choose Kyra. She put together the entire production in hours and had a season crew hired, location locked, and craft services stocked within three days. She also had a hand in production design, wardrobe and make-up. She is truly, as Kyra puts it an "everythingoloigist." Kyra was truly the fuel in the engine that made Cyn move.
Our location was G-Star Studios in West Palm Beach, FL. It has an 84,000 sq. ft. motion picture studio space as well as an amazing staff that bent over backwards to help us. G-Star Studios, it's staff and student population was very excited to have us there and made us feel like we were at home. The Broward, Palm Beach and Miami-Dade film commissions also where instrumental in making this a smooth production.
The Post Production:
Cyn was edited by the editor/director Alex Ferrari on Apple's Final Cut Pro HD. The workflow from the Panasonic HVX200 was seamless. The final edit took a record breaking 4 1/2 hours to edit and about 6 hours to do all the color correction. For color grading he used Red Giant's Magic Bullet Editors and Colorista, as well as Natress's G Film plugin's. He wanted to bring a "graphic novel" stylized look to Cyn. This was achieved with great lighting by seasoned director of photography Egon Stephan Jr. of CineVideoTech fame in Miami, FL. Alex and Egon only had a few brief moments to discuss the look and feeling of the project in "pre-production." Together they created a very unique and polished look.
Visual effects are always a part of an Alex Ferrari film and Cyn was no exception. Dan Cregan from the Award Winning Numb Robot (http://www.numbrobot.com) was asked to create multiple explosions, a room being shaken to pieces and an opening and closing title sequence, all within 4 days. Sean Falcon also was brought in to do what he does so well "muzzle flashes."
Music was a key element in creating the mood for Cyn. Frequent collaborator Mark Roumelis of Cmpozr, Inc. and Felipe Tichauer of Red Traxx both scored the entire film in under 3 days. The director wanted to capture a Danny Elfman vibe with the score being, very twisted, dark but yet playful. Both Mark and Felipe did a remarkable job.
Sound Design also was key in the final sound of Cyn. Carlos Arrieta of Roar Post (http://www.roarpost.com) in Miami, FL beautifully designed all the sound effects in the film. From explosions to a sack being pulled off a person's head, Carlos had the project covered.
Cyn is an example of what can be done by talent filmmakers with little money. The short is currently making the festival rounds. Currently Alex Ferrari is looking for financing for his feature project "Red Princess Blues" (http://www.redprincessblues.com) and his companies The Enigma Factory, Inc. and Numb Robot continue to take on bigger and higher profile projects.

Enzo Ferrari - His Story
Born in Emilia-Romagna, and raised in Modena, Italy, Enzo Ferrari grew up with little formal education but a strong desire to race cars. During World War I he was a mule-skinner in the Italian Army. His grandfather, Alfredo, died in 1916 as a result of a widespread Italian flu outbreak. Enzo became sick himself and was consequently discharged from Italian service. Upon returning home he found that the family firm had collapsed. Having no other job prospects he sought unsuccessfully to find work at Fiat and eventually settled for a job at a smaller car company called CMN redesigning used truck bodies into small, passenger cars. He took up racing in 1919 on the CMN team, but had little initial success.
Someone is going to get that perfect gift for the guy or gal that has everything, and they will remember this gift for sure, says Ron Sturgeon, founder of DFW Elite Auto Rental.com. "I'm doing some of my Christmas shopping on EBay," confesses Fort Worth entrepreneur and real estate investor Sturgeon. "I feel it only makes sense to offer A Drive Your Dream 2000 Horse Power package to EBay shoppers who haven't quite found the perfect gift for the luxury car aficionado on their lists."
Intrigued with the notion of a miniature bolide bearing his name, Enzi Ferrari proudly unveiled a diminutive engine late in 1959. The 854, which stood for shorthand the four cylinder 850cc engine. You know this type and line of car well. A replica of the Ferrari 250 line was used in the 1986 film ?Ferris Bueller?s Day Off? In the movie, the replica Ferrari 250 was the characters Cameron Frye?s dad?s car. Interestingly enough the automotive company that produced the replica 250 sports car , was later sued by Ferrari for the unlawful use of the Ferraro logos . Later forcing the replica company to shut down to avoid further legal action and potential financial judgments against itself So much for copying the rich and famous.

When we hear someone talking about "Ferrari" the first thing that comes to mind is money. Ferrari S.p.A is an Italian sports car manufacturer, this company started by sponsoring drivers and race cars and in its origins it was never thought of or intended to manufacture their own line of high performance/quality vehicles.
Just like when talking about Ferrari, Lamborghini projects a clear image of power and wealth to those who own one of these super vehicles. This is an Italian company founded by Ferruccio Lamborghini in 1963, so it can be said that this car manufacturing company is fairly new, but it has kept an excellent quality and performance record which rivals that of Ferrari.
Motorfair -- Scotland's Official & Biggest Motor Show -- Ex soldier, Ben Shaw (25) who was permanently blinded in a roadside bombing in Iraq will drive again for the very first time since losing his sight, when he attempts to lap Knockhill racing circuit in a £70k Ferrari 360 Modena. He will follow that daring attempt with arguably the toughest challenge of his life when he gets married the following day.
Porsche and Ferrari are German and Italian sides of the same coin, respectively. Each represents an unique interpretation of the concept of a sports car. Both were founded by a dominant patriarch, both designs are more than 50 years old, both honed their craft in racing, and both possess engineering and styling integrity. Whether they are on the track of Le Mans or on urban streets, the two brands have constantly been put head-to-head to be compared and contrasted. Even those motorists unmoved by sports cars associate these two names with both performance and style.
New position consolidates sales efforts.

When Alex made the Top 100 of the show and they asked him to create a short film in 6 days, "Cyn" was born.
