SURFSTYLE UPDATE : DEC 03 - http://www.surfstyle.org - We are starting production for the NYC exhibit and will be meeting with museums and galleries in January. While we are making the rounds, if anyone has suggestions, or hears of new art locales opening up, send us the details and we will meet up while back East. The exhibit is planned for early summer 04 before we ship off to the U.K. WORD - News, Latest Happenings, Etc. _Glass Love - Andrew Kidmanþs coming flick is sure to be another masterpiece. Kidman is all soul and I have to say that fella is every single bit of whatþs good about our collective love for the glide. If you get the chance, pick up the latest Surfers Journal for some interesting insight on his coming film. _Riding Waves. The sproutly glidester Cyrus Sutton has entered the surf movie arena with a nice burst. His Riding Waves flick has some classic footage of Swami John Peck busting full-on limb-pretzel-meditation moves along with him charging some heavy waves at his favorite SD break. Nice job on laying down the organic punjabi beats courtesy of DJ Cheb I Sabbah (Six Degree Records) - the whole soundtrack is right on. There's also some super stoney editing of Mr. Donavon that will bring you back to the days of PeeWeeþs Playhouse; some family footage of the Machado's (Producer); and of course JT, among others. We're including it as part of our film exhibit tour and will be showing it in SF within the next few weeks. Herbie Fletcher - Herbie doesn't use email, so don't email him- call him. Okay, Herb rocked SoHo last month for a hot art show that brought out faces from the...(umm)...the bohomeian / society / art world in NYC i.e. the people that make shit happen in the Apple. The "large girl w/ no eyes" board collaboration he's doing with Julian Schnabel are in our humble opinion, very cool. We love Herb for never slowing down. Patrick Trefz Exhibit Mr. Trefz has his one man foto exhibition in Santa Cruz as well as a new book featuring fotoz in/around the other SC. H'e's got skillz so check it out ptrefzphoto.com Joe Curren speaking of skillz, Joe C has a nice new website to peep out joecurrenphotography.com - in time for holiday gifts. _Ty Trippoli's fascinating rail-bone barrel-form created quite a buzz at Surf Style. Now Ty's bailed SF for the Brooklyn, NYC muse and w/o a moment to spare is in the Gallery @ 49th exhibit www.gallery49.com The NYC peeps on the list should check it b/c TyRomer charges - on board and studio. Surf Style Books looking bitchin. We are on target to hit our release date of early summer 04. If you're a retailer or distributor interested in carrying the book, please get in touch. Bill Ogden Documentary We just reviewed partial footage for the coming Bill Ogden documentary and it's 100% Bill Ogden. Mauiþs Randy Mills is behind this one and we will update you as it progresses. Jbrother is making the leap from surf fotag/film director to doing advert and product photography shoots for Madison Avenue agencies in NYC. Congrats to Jbrrr for breaking out! PBS picked up the Surf Style TV documentary for the pop culture show SPARK and will be airing it across the country. Will keep you updated on that. If you didn't get a chance to buy art @ Surf Style and want to pass along a worthy non-consumer holiday present, please email us and we will connect you with the art-ists. WWW.SURFSTYLE.ORG

THE ALLIANCE AND FUEL TEAM UP ON-AIR - Spots for New Action Sports Network Feature Pro Skateboarders Danny Way, Bob Burnquist, Tony Alva, Duane Peters, Steve Olson, Lance Mountain, Steve Alba and Dave Reul - LOS ANGELES, November 19, 2003 – The Alliance Film Group, an innovative production collective specializing in action sports, has teamed up with FUEL, Fox’s new action sports television network, on a series of promotional spots for the network in addition to GKA, the new girls action sports series hosted by pro snowboarder Tina Basich that premieres on Sunday, December 14 at 10:07pm ET/PT. "It's great working with a super creative crew like the group at Fuel, who support pushing the boundaries of action sport filming, said Chris Zamoscianyk, partner of The Alliance. “Plus the caliber of athletes really made for some insane footage." “Companies like FUEL and DC Shoes have to be on point with their advertising. Chris has the talent and knowledge of action sports that made him perfect for this project. And that is demonstrated by the positive response we’ve had to this creative,” explains Jake Munsey, Creative Director for FUEL. For the first spot, FUEL and The Alliance coordinated with DC Shoes to shoot exclusive footage of Danny Way on the same ramp he used to set world record marks for highest air and longest air. This spot featuring Danny on the DC Shoes Mega ramp at Point X Camp in Aguanga, California, began airing on FUEL on Sunday, October 12 to the tunes of Slayer. Bob Burnquist welcomed the team into his backyard to shoot both on ‘The Loop’ and his personal vert ramp. The Burnquist spot featuring ‘The Loop’ will begin airing on Sunday, November 23 during the premiere of a new “Skate Maps” episode. Old school skaters Tony Alva, Duane Peters, Steve Olson, Lance Mountain, Steve Alba and Dave Reul came together for a one-of-a-kind pool shoot set in the suburbs. In the spot, the skate legends interrupt the fun of four kids - Joe Graham, Chris Graham, David Robarge and Jesse Alba (Steve’s son) - who thought they’d finally found a perfect secret location. “The opportunity was too great to pass up,” said DC President Ken Block. “When Fuel approached us and we knew DC would be one of the first skate companies to have a spot broadcast across all of Fox’s channels, we were psyched. Danny’s skating is unlike anything else out there right now, and it is great to see it showcased in a commercial spot like this.” The multi-camera shoots for the Way and Burnquist spots utilized cutting edge filming technologies, including a Photosonics high speed 35mm film camera, an 80’ boom lift and an array of other cameras and equipment from Otto Nemenz International. To capture Way in action on the DC Shoes Mega ramp, a special low-level helicopter camera was also used. The pool skating shoot incorporated state-of-the-art 24p digital technology with the new Panasonic AG-DVX100 camera. The footage from all three shoots is being edited into separate national cross-channel promotion spots and network IDs for FUEL. “Beautiful Day” an inspired tune by Spider Harrison, one of the recently unearthed ‘70s funk bands, overlays the Bob Burnquist spot and Duane Peters’ band, US Bombs add the final touch to the pool shoot with their song “All The Bodies.” The Way and Burnquist spots were directed and shot by Chris Zamoscianyk with executive producer Scott Mellini – both partners in the Alliance Film Group. FUEL’s creative director Jake Munsey, directed the Bowl shoot with Zamoscianyk as the DP. All spots were produced and edited in-house under Munsey’s supervision. Telecine was handled by top commercial post-production agencies Company 3 and R!OT, both based in Santa Monica. Entertainment business veterans Zamoscianyk, Scott Mellini and J. Tosh Lu, themselves active participants in action sports culture, created The Alliance Film Group to produce and develop films, videos and episodic production with a unique, irreverent style but without the Hollywood hype. The Alliance inspires creativity through an experimental, fun and interactive environment, while leveraging cutting edge production techniques. With vast experience in all facets of filmmaking including concept, production, post, marketing and distribution, The Alliance has the sensibility and experience to uniquely bridge the action sport and entertainment world. FUEL is the first 24/7 US cable network dedicated to the world of action sports. As a driving force in youth culture, action sports have captured the imagination, energy and excitement of a generation. FUEL covers both competitive and non-competitive action in the arenas of skateboarding, surfing, BMX, freestyle motocross, snowboarding and wakeboarding.
