Made to Melt You: From the discerning Master Chocolatier creating Lindt’s LINDOR truffles, to the moment of enjoyment that has time stand still, Lindt’s latest campaign captures what we crave – irresistibly smooth chocolate that “puts the world on pause.” Hostage Films provided production for this new spot directed by Ruben Latre for agency GREY.
To bring the mouth-watering spot to life, Hostage Films partnered with the Milan-based SFX team at Moviechrome, working side-by-side to capture the art of chocolate and the transportive moment made possible by iconic chocolate-maker, Lindt.
“Ruben Latre is a cinematic master,” says SFX Artist Andrea Bonomi. “Every collaboration with him is a great chance to make something beautiful.”
Based in the US but with experience working world-wide, Hostage Films recently expanded its representation to include UK-based Agent Elson, and China based D-AGENT. To discover more about Ruben Latre and Hostage Films, please visit www.hostagefilms.com
Simian Gets An Evolutionary Boost For Collaboration, Reveals “Teams”
Simian, the showreel-building, review & approval, and production asset management platform used globally by creative leaders, is kicking off this fall season with a substantial leap forward for collaboration and project management – with more updates on the way during the holidays!
The new feature, aptly dubbed “Teams”, makes it easier than ever for users to give project responsibilities to team members and clients alike. “You can never have too many options when it comes to permission levels,” says Jay Brooks, Simian’s Chief Technology Officer. “Teams provides a streamlined way to assign multiple users to a project at once.”
“Teams are very powerful, but creating one is effortless,” Brian Atton, Simian’s Chief Operating Officer explains. “Simply enter a Team name, add members, and then apply the newly made Team to any desired project. You can even invite temporary guests without changing settings for other projects or needing to create a new Team.”
“We love helping our clients by providing efficient tools to improve their workflow, and this has been a frequently requested feature as of late,” shares Kellie Atton, Head of Sales at Simian. “It feels great to get Teams out into the wild because I know it’s going to be tremendously helpful to everyone who uses it”.
Teams is now available exclusively to Simian’s enterprise clients. Simian plans to release more product upgrades and enhancements during Q4 2024 and 2025 for enterprise and non-enterprise users, continuing its ongoing evolution as the industry’s leading production asset management solution.
