1987 The Big Easy Opening & Closing Themes with Credits

admin — Mon, 19 Mar 2012 22:51:42 +0000

Here is the opening and closing themes, with credits, from the 1987 New Orleans film “The Big Easy” starring Dennis Quaid as Renny McSwain and Ellen Barkin as Anne Osborne. The opening theme is the fantastic Beau Soleil with their rousing rendition of “Zydeco Gris Gris”. The closing theme is provided by legendary Buckwheat Zydeco and his “Buck’s Nouvelle Jolen Blon”. I fell in love with Louisiana and the Cajun/Creole culture from seeing this movie before I ever lived there.

Making Traditions 5 min HD Pilot Demo

admin — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 03:33:14 +0000

Viewer Involvement – Cajun Culture – Storytelling – History
Mesmerizing Videography – Woodworking / How-to

BRIEF
Making Traditions is a locally produced television show which combines the culture of Louisiana, its stories and craftsmanship and presents them in a mix of viewer involvement, storytelling, history and how-to videography.

THEME
With Making Traditions, we examine those pieces of furniture we associate with images of days past. Their stories are told by those best able to tell them and we then recreate the pieces in a modern home workshop.

PILOT EPISODE
In this pilot episode, the story is told by the family matriarch. Mrs. Lura Schuff of Ville Platte tells the story of the breakfast table made for her by her father when she first set out on her own in 1945. Through the years, her children and grand-children used and were served on this table, and now her great-grandchildren consider it a fixture on Nanas back porch.

We then recreate the table in a step-by-step process that is informative and visually entertaining and relaxing. The finished product is reviewed and re-associated with the original story.

TARGET AUDIENCE
Family. The show has a much broader appeal than just a woodworking instructional video. The visual reconstruction of the piece is not just informative, but the high definition videography and professional editing literally captivate and mesmerize the viewer.

The stories have a common appeal. Additionally, the effort will be to interview the patriarch/matriarch of the family related to the piece.

MULTI-MEDIA VIEWER INVOLVEMENT
In addition to traditional media (outdoor advertising, radio, television) to direct viewers to the initial shows, we will incorporate the following to incite viewer involvement:
•Project Give-away: The winner will receive the project made on that episode.
•Sawdust Buddy of the Week: Family can register on the website with content.
•Project Plans: Detailed project plans for every project will be available for download.
•Project Videos: Short clips and video tips will be available on the website. Full episode videos will be available for a reasonable charge.
