Song Accompanies New Advertising Campaign Promoting Krystal Restaurants
Hummingbird Productions, one of America’s leading producers of original music and sound design for the advertising industry, has contributed a fun, original song to a new regional campaign promoting Krystal Restaurants. The song can be heard in three new, 30-second TV spots which just broke in regional markets across the Southeastern United States. The announcement was made today by Bob Farnsworth, CEO/Founder/Creative Director, Hummingbird Productions. See: www.hummingbirdproductions.com
Hummingbird’s client for the new Krystal campaign was the MARC USA/Chicago, Inc. For the campaign, Hummingbird produced a new song, “Oh…Let’s Krystal” — a contemporary, unbridled, “rock out” piece of music with a lot of attitude and a very cool vibe featuring vocals. Each of the spots features Voice Over work from country music artist Andy Griggs. The song “Oh…Let’s Krystal” was written by Casey Cornett and Ryan Sutton.

Joe Burke, Chief Creative Officer, MARC USA Chicago, said, “Bob and the folks at Hummingbird were brilliant partners in the development of the music for this campaign. They gave us so many options and different ways to come at it throughout the process, finally landing on the piece that wound up in the spots. As soon as we heard it, we knew it was perfect. It got in everyone’s head so quickly and stayed with us the whole time.”

“Ǝvolution” Comes Full Circle At The Chelsea Film Festival
The Chelsea Film Festival, running from October 16th through October 20th, 2024, at Regal Cinemas here in Union Square, is set to host the East Coast premiere of Ǝvolution, a thought-provoking experimental micro-short film that proves big ideas can come in small packages and in perfect circles.
In just 1 minute 16 seconds, this cinematic gem by Award-Winning Director Romina Schwedler, with original music by Argentine Composer Ignacio Montoya Carlotto, explores a cycle as old as time: life leads to progress, progress leads to destruction, and destruction, well, leads back to life. But is this vicious circle unbreakable? Ǝvolution suggests the answer is yes, unless we decide to open our eyes.
Inspired by the overwhelming number of recent events that threaten human existence, Ǝvolution, possibly the shortest film in this 12th edition of the festival, plays out entirely through the symbolism of circles, cleverly illustrating —in the blink of an eye— the repeating patterns of history, and confronting viewers with the uncomfortable truth that our so-called “progress” may, in fact, be guiding us to our own ruin.Premiering at the Regal 14 Union Square, New York City, on October 18, 2024, at 11 a.m., Romina Schwedler's micro-short, featuring Leah Young with cinematography by Alan J. Carmona, will be sure to spark conversations longer than the film itself! Forcing viewers to reconsider the true meaning of evolution, not just as a biological process, but as a reflection of our collective journey as humans.
With a string of festival appearances across the globe, including CineGlobe at CERN (Switzerland/France), Oscar®... Read More
