ALPHADOGS CELEBRATES LIVES OF CULTURAL ICONS BURBANK, CA — Post house and design studio AlphaDogs (www.alph adogs.tv) recently com- pleted work on the new documentary, Dying To Know: Ram Dass & Tim- othy Leary. Producer/ director Gay Dillingham and associate producer Michael Donnelly take viewers inside the lives of life-long companions and cultural icons, Timo- thy Leary and Richard Alpert (Ram Dass) in the months preceding Leary's death from cancer. Dying To Know was 19 years in the making. It's narrated by Robert Red- ford and features interviews spanning over 50 years. A common challenge in finishing documentary films is the wide variety of source footage a finishing editor has to contend with during color correction. Much of the extensive archival interview footage in Dying To Know was done years ago while SD was still the standard, with the more recent interviews being done in HD. To simplify the mixed format conversion, AlphaDogs editor and colorist, Sean Stack, broke the documentary into three separate timelines before beginning the color correction process in DaVinci Resolve. In the arc of the story, two different types of sources were used in archi- val footage (provided by Timothy Leary Archives — managed by the NY Public Library and Lawrence Schiller — managed by Polaris Communica- tions) of Leary and Alpert in the main interview that occurs throughout the documentary. DaVinci Resolve was used to balance out dramatically differ- ent grain structures and depth from the two sources, one Digital Betacam, the other being analog Beta SP. Stack took extra care in creating a seamless look so viewers would not be distracted from the engaging story being told. SHUTTERSTOCK SURPASSES 2 MILLION VIDEO CLIPS NEW YORK — Shutterstock, Inc.
