Dreamworks' 'Rise of the Guardians' to Be Released in Auro 11.1 3D S Press release DreamWorks’ ‘Rise of the Guardians’ to be released in Auro 11.1 3D sound technology Mol, Belgium, October 8, 2012 – Film industry visionary DreamWorks Animation has selected Barco’s 3D sound format Auro 11.1 for the release of their next animated feature film ‘Rise of the Guardians’. Slated for release on 21 November 2012, ‘Rise of the Guardians’ will be mixed in the revolutionary Auro-3D® sound technology and distributed worldwide. DreamWorks Animation – the creators of top-notch animation movies such as ‘Shrek’, ‘Madagascar’, ‘Kung Fu Panda’ and ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ – has selected Barco’s 3D sound format Auro 11.1 to create a truly unique and enveloping sound experience for their upcoming film ‘Rise of the Guardians’. “DreamWorks has always pushed the envelope of creative storytelling,” remarks Jim Bershears, Vice President Post-production at DreamWorks Animation. “With our movies, we always strive to create an experience that not only kindles the imagination, but also connects moviegoers with the stories that we tell and the characters shown on screen. The Auro-3D® sound format will surely add an extra dimension, enabling this deeper emotional connection with our audiences.” Leading cinema technology “The fact that DreamWorks Animation has selected our Auro 11.1 3D sound technology for the sound mix of their next animation movie is truly a great honor for us,” comments Brian Claypool, Senior Director of Strategic Business Development of Barco’s Entertainment Division. “It clearly illustrates our commitment to provide the cinema industry with the most innovative and comprehensive suite of products and solutions to treat moviegoers to the ultimate movie experience. By combining our revolutionary audio format with our leading digital cinema projection technology, we are truly primed to provide the movie industry with the most immersive entertainment experience possible.” ‘Rise of the Guardians’ DreamWorks’ ‘Rise of the Guardians’ is an epic adventure that tells the story of Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, the Sandman and Jack Frost – legendary heroes, each with extraordinary abilities. When an evil spirit known as Pitch threatens to take over the world, the immortal Guardians must join forces to protect the hopes, beliefs and imagination of all children on earth. Three layers of sound Auro 11.1, developed by Auro Technologies and powered by Barco, is the next-generation 3D sound format for the cinema industry. The Auro-3D® sound format is designed along three layers of sound (surround, height and overhead ceiling) rather than the single horizontal layer used in the traditional 5.1 sound format. Thanks to its 11.1 configuration, the technology not only enables sound mixers to move objects around in space but it also allows them to reproduce the immersive aspects of a film soundtrack in a way that is more compatible with their current workflow. The Auro-3D® sound technology provides the best acoustical experience at the most commercially viable price point in the market and does so without the need to create object-based soundtracks that are designed to be optimized for the consumer market.

DWA ‐0.05% today announced that acclaimed soprano Renee Fleming has performed the original song "Still Dream" on the soundtrack for the upcoming Rise of the Guardians, which also features a score by Four‐Time Academy Award® nominated and Grammy® Award winning composer Alexandre Desplat. Varese Sarabande will release the soundtrack on November 13, preceding the film's nationwide release on November 21. The original, end‐credit song "Still Dream" was written and produced by Desplat, with lyrics by Rise of the Guardians screenwriter, Grammy® Award nominee and Pulitzer Prize winning author, David Lindsay‐Abaire. The complete score, recorded at the historic Abbey Road in London and Air Studios, was performed by the London Symphony Orchestra and features choral work by London Voices. To create the music and lyrics for the original song, Desplat and Lindsay‐Abaire drew upon the film's heroic and sweeping story as inspiration.

  • Dreamworks Animation SKG, Inc
    DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. Website dreamworksanimation.com DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. (NASDAQ: DWA) is an American animation studio based in Glendale, California that creates animated feature films, television program and online virtual worlds. They have released a total of 22 feature films, including Shrek, Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda and How to Train Your Dragon series. Although the studio also made traditionally animated films about serious subjects earlier, such as The Prince of Egypt, Joseph: King of Dreams, The Road to El Dorado, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, and Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, most of their computer-generated films and television series have now gained the studio a reputation for being focused on popular culture and satire. The studio was formed by the merger of the feature animation division of DreamWorks and Pacific Data Images (PDI). Originally formed under the banner of DreamWorks in 1997 by some of Amblin Entertainment's former animation branch Amblimation alumni, it was spun off into a separate public company in 2004. DreamWorks Animation currently maintains two campuses: the original DreamWorks feature animation studio in Glendale, California and the PDI studio in Redwood City, California. Films produced by DreamWorks Animation are currently distributed worldwide by Paramount Pictures, a subsidiary of Viacom, who acquired the DreamWorks live-action studio in February 2006, spinning it off again in 2008. History The PDI/DreamWorks Studio in Redwood City, California 1994–2004 On October 12, 1994, DreamWorks SKG was formed and founded by a trio of entertainment players, director and producer Steven Spielberg, music executive David Geffen, and former Disney executive Jeffrey Katzenberg.
