Science Friction Interview with FUTURE iNCITE
(devamı)
SCIENCE FRICTION Scoring/Sound Design was born out of the love for combining music with film. Founded by Frank Sonsini and George Martindell, the duo began toiling away making strange, useful instrumental music and design by using electronic and acoustic instruments. The two, both lovers of the macabre and of the extra-terrestrial, realized they both would "vision" possible cinematic scenes while listening to and creating their unusual music.
After a period of experimentation with growing knowledge of their craft, they decided it was time to take these urges and apply them to film. They also realized that they were somewhat "Yin" and "Yang" when it came to producing this format. With firm knowledge of recording and engineering, Sonsini took the helm and began to give this medium edge and atmosphere. Martindell, with influences in different styles of music and prior film projects, directs and promotes the music.
SCIENCE FRICTION'S first task was to create original music for the TNT Network production, "Faces of Evil." This documentary combines a score by the late Bernard Herrmann, interviews with John Carpenter and Marilyn Manson, and narration by Malcolm McDowell. Despite it’s dark subject matter, TNT aired the documentary multiple times following "The Devil’s Advocate," starring Al Pacino. The Hollywood Reporter reviewed it as "compelling imagery with excellent music."
The next collaboration was to provide dark and symphonic arrangements for Vancouver filmmakers, Titan Pictures for a movie based on the H.P. Lovecraft story, "The Terrible Old Man," written by the Leo Award nominated Steve Abbott. The film has thrilled audiences at Indie Film Festivals and sci-fi conventions across North America, and is currently being aired on the Canadian TV channels: Space - The Imagination Station, and BRAVO!
Next, was composing scores for two short films for Director, David Sloma's Rockin' Films Productions of Toronto, Canada. The first being a quirky comedy, "Me and Pollyanna;" the other a dark and twisted murder-short, "Details." "Me and Pollyanna" is presently being distributed by Big Film Shorts in Hollywood, California.
After meeting renowned Flash animator Robert Feldman, the two composers soon started collaborating with the U. S. based Feldman Productions on his unique animated on-line series, "The Perils of...DR. SHROUD." Two complete episodes, "Alley of the Dolls" and "La Maudite," featuring the music of SCIENCE FRICTION, was released in early 2005. The DVD has distribution through the on-line stores of companies such as Best Buy, Barnes and Noble, and Target, and was produced by the superlative Knight Productions, also based in the United States. "DR. SHROUD" has since caught the attention of a few major animation studios who have shown very strong interest in Robert’s productions. Robert recently completed "The Boy In The Box," three-part series, with the music of SCIENCE FRICTION. Robert joined Dee Snider and Debbie Rochon of Fangoria Radio for a studio interview in March, 2007 who gave them kudos for their music production. Dr. Shroud mobile shows are now available through ZapperTV .com on V Cast Verizon enabled cells. Mobile carriers in Europe and Asia are currently interested, as well.
The E! Entertainment Network has used the duo for "Taradise," their celebrity based reality TV show starring, Tara Reid. ‘Spanish flavored’ SCIENCE FRICTION music was applied to an episode of Tara’s travels and adventures in Pamplona, Spain. Their music has also been used in various other E! Entertainment TV shows.
Howard Eskin, WIP AM 610 Philadelphia Radio Sports Host, features SCIENCE FRICTION'S music on his new radio promotion. Radio format was their current passion.
Executive Producers Fred Pasqua and Dan Jacoby at Robusto Records just released a haunting Halloween CD using the music composed by SCIENCE FRICTION, "Symphony of the Night." They describe the compilation as "a bubbling cauldron of musical mayhem and spine-chilling sounds that will frighten and delight all who dare to embark on this Epic Halloween Journey."
SCIENCE FRICTION composed and performed music for FiRe PiG PrOdUcTiOnS submission of a three-minute short film clip, "Last Stand," for the George A. Romero Diary of the Dead Video Contest. Interested viewers were able to watch and vote on MySpaceTV. The eight-minute Director's Cut will be premiered at upcoming Indy Film Festivals.
Currently, The E! Entertainment Network again used SCIENCE FRICTION'S music for "25 Celebrity Near-Death Experiences," a celebrity based reality TV show.
Most recently, Science Friction composed original music and sound design for the animated Dr. Shroud franchise. "Skeletons," the first episode in a "brand new look" Dr. Shroud animated series, produced by Robert Feldman's Ear Worm Media, is available in the mobile device industry. Dr. Shroud is rapidly gaining the attention of producers in New York and other global corporations.
SCIENCE FRICTION is recording additional sound effects to add to their already extensive catalog of Foley and sound design for use in film, animation, video game design, or web content.

I hope you gouls (er...guys) are having as beautiful a Fall down there as we are up here! And, as the Witching Hour approaches I wish you a most lovely HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Hey George, thanks for stopping in! Been busy with music projects..new PT has had many plays now. It's a masterpiece! A very dynamic album! Will talk soon, all the best!! Fred
I'm giving up on the Leafs and the Canucks. I had to turn off the Canuck's game, pathetic.
Still waiting on Reliance. Associate produced another pic over the summer. Right now I'm working on a low budget scifi feature that goes to camera in November. That's right, I have no life.
Oh, my day job tanked. The owner ran it right into the ground.
George, from our corner of space to yours, we wish you a musically productive remainder of the year and beyond!! Yes, I can't wait to pick up "The Incident"!
Hello from Montréal! Thank you very much for the request. I'm glad to be one of your myspace friends. Your website is quite interesting. Maybe one day my screenplays will need original scores and original sound effects. Best wishes with your endeavours.
