about
us
There
are a lot of really
great movies that
don't get shown so much.
It's true that for modern
audiences used to
a million
dollars worth of computer
aided effects older movies
sometimes seem a little slower, but the fact remains that there are
a lot of great old movies
that you really shouldn't
miss, and the Parr Project
is about helping those
movies reach you.
LIVE
MUSIC.
First and foremost
we are
about the music.
Movies
live with music,
and whether it's
our own music specially
composed for
the movie or
the original
soundtrack,
we will be
performing
it live, right
in front of
you.
SPECIAL
EDITS
Sometimes
older movies
need
'accelerating'
a little to
get them up to
modern
speed. When
necessary we
specially edit
movies
to make them a
little more
watchable for
amodern
audience.
BE PREPARED....LIVING
MOVIES.
We try to
create a
special atmosphere
with
our
very own
1920's film
crew -
so you
might just
find out
yourself what
making a
1920's movie,
or being a silent
movie
star is really
like.
If that isn't
enough, we
also promise
that you will
be watching
movies in a
way that you
have never
watched them
before...
We want you - our audience -
to become the stars of the
performance and to help our
movies live. For every
project we will be providing
a dress code and tips on how
to become part of the
project. Check
it out here....
WHO ARE WE?
The Parr Project was set up
by Oliver Parr and Hester
van Ooteghem. Oliver is a
professional musician who
has been solo cellist of the
Remix Ensemble Casa da
Musica since 2000, one of
Europe's foremost
contemporary music groups.
Hester comes from a theater
background and has tinkered
with movie making (amongst
other things). Oliver writes
the music, and Hester comes
up with all sorts of weird
and wonderful ideas, and it
more or less seems to work
quite well. |
