Press Start
Posted by virt on February 19th, 2007 filed in GeneralSince the release date was announced, I figured I’d start the hype machine over here, and let you know I’m scoring my first full-length movie!
Press Start is an independent film by Dark Maze Studios, directed by Ed Glaser. It’s a “comedy/adventure” parodying tons of classic video games at once, portraying their various cliches – character archetypes and plot devices – in a real-world setting.
Oh yeah, and it guest-stars the Pesina brothers, better known as RAIDEN AND JOHNNY CAGE. And yes, they get to kick some ass.
I’ve been wanting to get my feet wet in film for a long time, but was worried I didn’t have the skill or resources necessary to produce a serious soundtrack. But I got around that with this project – since this movie is videogame-themed, it’s a great transition because I can comfortably mix my game music styles and epic orchestration without taking either too seriously.
So, September 25th, get ready to order the DVD – and spread the word! The world needs more video game movies that aren’t made by Uwe Boll!

Does this mean we going to get to hear more uber stuff like Crystal Flash instead of a buncha chiptunes?

From your description, it sounds like Mega64 ( http://www.mega64.com ) on a much grander scale. I’ll have to check it out.
