[ April 12th 2002 ]
Sounddogs.com
and Audio Network Plc have announced that they
have signed an agreement to have Sounddogs.com
distribute the SoundStorm sound design library.
SoundStorm is an Academy Award-winning sound design
team from Los Angeles, creatively led by Supervising
Sound Editors Bruce Stambler and John Leveque,
with 10,000 (130 Gb) never-before-published effects,
created for many of the greatest Hollywood films
from the past twenty years.
Stated
Paul Virostek, Vice President of Production at
SDC, "The SoundStorm library is immaculate, and
we are excited to provide our much-beloved customers
with one of the greatest sound libraries in Hollywood
history." SoundStorm, Inc. is best known for its
work on many of Hollywood's highest-profile motion
pictures. Recent works range from The Fast and
the Furious and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, to the
upcoming Star Trek: Nemesis, Triple X and The
Sum of All Fears.
John
Switzer, Vice President of SoundStorm, on working
with Sounddogs.com, "Both Audio Network and SoundStorm
are very excited to be teaming up with Sounddogs.com
and Rob Nokes. This is the first time the general
public has been given access to our legendary
library, and we are thrilled that its debut has
been on Sounddogs.com."
In his
additional capacity as a Director at Audio Network
Plc, Switzer organized the deal between the three
companies. Switzer and Nokes worked together at
SDC between 1998-2000, and the two closed deals
with AvidProNet, Microsoft MSDN and Apple iMovie.
The two had originally met and worked on a deal
with Audio Network Plc principals Robert Hurst
and Andrew Sunnucks when they were with Boosey
& Hawkes Plc.
"There
are many reasons that make this a special moment,
most importantly is that we continue to provide
the absolute best product and service to our clients,"
stated Rob Nokes, President of Sounddogs.com.
"We are also reunited with good friends, as we
strive forward in our vision to provide the world
with the most elite sound and music library, with
a design that is accessible by grade-school students
and major motion picture editors."
Nokes
concluded, "SoundStorm is a fantastic company
that does exceptional work, and we sincerely appreciate
the opportunity to provide their exquisite sound
library to the world."
