Blackmagic Design has announced that Toronto based Banger Films used Teranex 2D Processor and DaVinci Resolve to complete “Super Duper Alice Cooper,” a new documentary looking at the life of Alice Cooper. The film will premiere in the US at the upcoming 2014 Tribeca Film Festival and in Canada at the HotDocs Toronto Festival, and will be distributed commercially worldwide.
Banger Films has become one of the most recognized names in musical documentaries, creating the VH1 “Metal Evolution” series and the award winning documentaries “Iron Maiden: Flight 666” and “RUSH Beyond the Lighted Stage,” which won the Audience Award at the 2010 Tribeca Film Festival. Its new film, which has been dubbed a DocOpera, follows the life and career of rock legend Alice Cooper.
Built entirely around archived footage, the film tells Alice’s story through personal, concert, news, fan footage, interviews with musicians and celebrities and stock footage from early silent films, including the classic 1920s horror film “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.” Banger Films had to work with footage in a large number of formats used during the past 50 years and transfer it all into a final 1080p HD project. All of the conversions for the film were completed using the Teranex 2D Processor.
