Vapor music gives Kontrast the thumbs up
We were very excited this morning to find out that Vapor Music, have given us permission to use Benn "Flashbulb" Jordan's fantastic music track, 5:25:001 Orchestra, for the Kontrast Productions 2008 showreel.
Not only are we excited about using such an extrordinary track, but we hope that this could be the first of many successful projects with Vapor. Many thanks to Benn Jordan and David Hayman.

The Meningitis Trust put Ade's DVD to good use
After having worked closely with The Meningitis Trust on the Ade's Song, music video, they have decided to use the DVD to help raise awareness about the tragic disease, and is currently being shown at colleges and universities around the country.

 

Interview on ITV
Following the release of Ade's Song on DVD, Nic Yeeles (creative director and founder) was interviewed on ITV Meridian about the music video he made for his friend, Ade Gibbs, who tragically died from meningitis. We hope the news story will help raise awareness about meningitis, and raise money for Ade Gibbs' memorial and The Meningitis Trust charity. You can watch the interview here.

 

Ade's Song is now on DVD
After the tragic death of Ade Gibbs, a close friend of ours, we decided to make a music video as a gift for him. The video features his friends and family, holding up messages to and about Ade. The video was a huge success, and has now been released on DVD. All of the profits made from the DVD are going towards a memorial for Ade. You can now buy the DVD here.
