Euro CineShow 2008
MagmaWave presented a seminar at the EuroCineShow this week in Torino. Alongside Davide Scalenghe of CurrentTV, Daniel McVicar presented: From Facebook to Film. Uses of New Media and Modern Filmmaking. Specific tools were given to the packed room on how to use the new media in reaching your audience and telling your story.
Davide Scalenghe talked about how CurrentTV is using User Created Content in its programming, and how to make that happen. He is also quite a doppelganger for leading Netizen Ze Frank.
The seminar was a great success, and Daniel McVicar’s Italian was sturdy enough to communicate the ideas, although it may be similar to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s English, accented but effective. The seminar was in such demand that it was moved to a larger hall. Thanks to the Euro Cine Show
Making of Il Bene e Male
MagmaWave announces that we will be doing the “Making of” or “Backstage” for Il Bene e Male, a production of Alessandro Jacchia and Albatross Productions for RAI Television.
MagmaWave will produce, edit, shoot footage and use footage from additional sources in the making of documentary for the series. MagmaWave will also offer Backstage Plus for new media distribution of its content.
Il Bene e Male is now shooting in Torino, and directed by Giorgio Serafini. Cast includes Bianca Guaccero, GianMarco Tognazzi, Marco Falaguasta and Antonia Liskova.
Piazza Cavour
As we continue working on our office in the historical center of Torino, the rain and floods have been coming. So the lovely terrace over Piazza Cavour is having a wave of its own.
We are on the second floor, the noble floor in a lovely Palazzo. Our neighbors at webworking have worked with us on the sorrisoveloce.com site.
The new paint is dry, and the office is still quite empty. We do have the high speed connection thanks to FastWeb…fiber optic and faster than what I experience in the US.
