Marin Girard et Crépuscule pour un tueur

Dans quelques articles parus récemment sur la sortie du film, Crépuscule pour un tueur, l’acteur Éric Bruneau, le réalisateur Raymond Saint-Jean et le scénariste Martin Girard y vont de leurs impressions sur le tueur à gages Daniel Lavoie, le personnage qu’ils ont façonné ensemble.

« Les quatre saisons sont incluses dans le film. On passe de la chaleur de l’été à la vibrance de l’automne. À un moment, Donald Lavoie enfile des raquettes pour aller couper un sapin, évoquant un coureur des bois. On voulait que ça ne puisse être rien d’autre qu’un film québécois ».

« On nous a demandé si le film glorifiait la criminalité. Je pense que ce n’est pas la bonne question à poser. Ce personnage ne mérite certainement pas la gloire au sens d’un héros, mais ce qu’il a vécu marque un tournant dans l’histoire de la criminalité au Québec. C’est pour lui que le Programme de protection des témoins a vu le jour. »

« C’est un récit sur le thème de la réhabilitation.»

— Martin Girard

Someone Stole This VR Producer’s Friendship Bracelet

“Dealing with theft is never fun, but interdisciplinary artist and BFF holder Jessica Kantor wants to speak out about the incident that drained her BFF Friendship Bracelet from her MetaMask wallet in the hopes of saving fellow community members from the same fate.

“Kantor, who grew up in New York City and currently resides in Santa Monica, Ca., is a highly sought-after writer, director and producer of immersive augmented reality (AR) experiences. She is also the chief of staff at RMX, an early-stage Web3 startup that develops on-chain tooling for creators. BFF played an important role in Kantor’s Web3 onboarding, which happened, she says, “in a postpartum daze in early 2022.”

Apocablyss Studio Launch Trailer

Apocablyss Studio, a new endeavor from Paloma Dawkins (Museum of Symmetry, Songs of the Lost, Gardenium), officially launched last September 23rd at Montreal’s Anteism Books venue (Solange Knowles’ In Past Pupils and Smiles) in what was a perfect night of poetry from Ashley Opheim and Erin Songbird and of course technology from Paloma Dawkins.

Apocablyss is devoted to using new media to explore new forms of storytelling, creating animated programmed and speculative fictions that help us reconnect and reimagine ourselves. This is why the studio has a strong technological penchant for everything XR which it combines with poetry and an incredibly whimsical animation style.

We leave you with the mantra of the studio: Love is the Technology of Survival. Indeed.
