    LOS ANGELES --

    Production studio Lord Danger has signed three directors–Amr Singh and director-photography duo Marlyne and Patrick Curtet (MP Curtet)–for U.S. representation spanning commercials and branded content. 

    This marks Singh’s first production company roost in the U.S. market. M&P Curtet have been focused primarily on their stills work and hadn’t been previously repped for motion.

    Singh and MP Curtet join a Lord Danger directorial roster which includes Mike Diva, Lawrence Lamont, Parker Seaman, and Steven Taylor. 

    Originally from South Africa, Singh has worked with leading creative agencies and brands globally. His experience also extends to Hollywood, directing A-listers including Kevin Hart. Singh’s work has garnered critical acclaim as well as a Van Gough Award at the Amsterdam International Film Festival, and a Gold Craft for Directing from the Promax Awards. 

    “Amr has an affinity for making things that move people, audiences, and culture. His ability to master craft across genres like travel, and product, makes him a perfect addition to the team,” said Josh Shadid, Lord Danger’s executive producer and founder. “We’re excited to introduce Amr to the US market and show off what the rest of the world already has come to know.” 

    Marlyne and Patrick Curtet, a Los Angeles-based French couple, have combined their talents to bring an innovative approach to multidisciplinary campaigns across automotive, luxury, and fashion. Their body of work encompasses campaigns in more than 70 countries including China, Tanzania, Croatia, Peru and Mongolia. MP Curtet’s latest work has been for Cadillac, Nissan, Genesis, Jeep and Volkswagen, among others. As experts in blending craft, design, and technology with luxury brands, MP Curtet will help usher Lord Danger into new territory.

    “Marlyne and Patrick are aficionados of the modern creative toolkit, constantly retooling their approach to continually integrate new creative technologies into their arsenal,” said Shadid. “They’ve mastered the art of capturing striking photographic composition and finish into movement, and we’re looking forward to showing the world all that they’re capable of as part of the Lord Danger directorial team.”

    Supreme Court Allows Multibillion-Dollar Class Action Lawsuit To Proceed Against Meta

    Friday, November 22, 2024

    The Supreme Court is allowing a multibillion-dollar class action investors' lawsuit to proceed against Facebook parent Meta, stemming from the privacy scandal involving the Cambridge Analytica political consulting firm.

    The justices heard arguments in November in Meta's bid to shut down the lawsuit. On Friday, they decided that they were wrong to take up the case in the first place.

    The high court dismissed the company's appeal, leaving in place an appellate ruling allowing the case to go forward.

    Investors allege that Meta did not fully disclose the risks that Facebook users' personal information would be misused by Cambridge Analytica, a firm that supported Donald Trump 's first successful Republican presidential campaign in 2016.

    Inadequacy of the disclosures led to two significant price drops in the price of the company's shares in 2018, after the public learned about the extent of the privacy scandal, the investors say.

    Meta spokesman Andy Stone said the company was disappointed by the court's action. "The plaintiff's claims are baseless and we will continue to defend ourselves as this case is considered by the District Court," Stone said in an emailed statement.

    Meta already has paid a $5.1 billion fine and reached a $725 million privacy settlement with users.

    Cambridge Analytica had ties to Trump political strategist Steve Bannon. It had paid a Facebook app developer for access to the personal information of about 87 million Facebook users. That data was then used to target U.S. voters during the 2016 campaign.

    The lawsuit is one of two high court cases involving class-action lawsuits against tech companies. The justices also are wrestling with whether to shut down a class action against Nvidia.... Read More
