Legendary Beatles’ producer Sir George Martin was recently honored at the Grammy Foundation’s 51st annual Starry Night benefit gala chaired by Sir Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Yoko Ono and Olivia Harrison. The Timelapse Wand were among the exclusive gifts presented in the “swag suite”.  For this event, Pixascope was asked to design two posters for the Timelapse booth to promote their line of cosmetic products.

When Pixascope was asked to redesign the Phantasm website, one question popped up - What is the definitive title treatment for Phantasm? After four movies, books, comics and multiple DVD releases, there has been a slew of variations and new takes on the logo.

Director Don Coscarelli was interested in a return to the film’s roots, which is the classic serifed title used in the 70s, and who could argue?  However, it was the sequel that established the now iconic chiseled chrome look .  Not wanting to ignore these two elements, we married the two together, while drawing influence from actual mausoleums to add  a new level of engraved gothic detail, resulting in the title treatment you see above.

MovieMaker Magazine selected Call Box as one of the 50 Best Websites for Moviemakers in their June/July issue.Call Box offers instructional DVDs that executive producer and host Noah Kadner describes as “training for the most popular and trickiest to use HD and 24p cameras.”

Pixascope was initially approached in 2006 to design and develop their site and branding.  Since then, Pixascope has designed all of the packaging for Call Box’s 6 DVD releases, including their recent release DVD Studio Pro: Special Edition.

Congrats goes out to Noah and the rest of the Call Box crew.
