The BBB Featuring Bernie Dresel – Live and Energized 11.1‐Channel Auro‐3D® “Live” Recording Event (Working Title) The BBB Featuring Bernie Dresel – Live And Energized 11.1‐Channel Auro‐3D® “Live” Recording Event (Working Title) Date: Tuesday, April 19, 2016 Arrive By 7:00 PM, Sound Check 8:00 PM NO Admission Fee Or Cover Charge Joe’s Great American Bar & Grill, Burbank, California Bernie Dresel’ s jazz orchestra, The BBB, is without question one of Los Angeles’ most exciting large jazz ensembles, if not on the planet. The BBB provides potent testimony to the sheer exhilaration of big band jazz...a combination of intense swing and fiery soloing, as well as tight ensemble playing. The BBB is comprised of sixteen seasoned pros on the LA studio scene. Populated by LA’s finest players, The BBB takes the big band tradition into the new millennium with a contemporary, highly original sound featuring the witty, intricate, and hard‐ swinging compositions of established and up‐and‐coming composers and arrangers. And like those other famous road bands such as Buddy Rich’s, Count Basie’s, Woody Herman’s, Stan Kenton’s, Thad Jones/Mel Lewis’, the music and delivery of The BBB’s music is nothing less than astonishing when experienced live. The sound has a contemporary, dynamic and hard swinging energy with a focused edge to it that is like no other jazz orchestra, though reminiscent of Buddy Rich’s ensembles. The band make‐up is unique in that there is no piano but jazz/rockin’ guitar instead, in addition to four trumpets, four trombones, five saxophones and upright acoustic bass and drums. When people hear Bernie’s BBB, the first thing that hits them is its energy and intensity. At the helm of The BBB is jazz drummer extraordinaire Bernie Dresel. Bernie is the first call drummer and percussionist on the Hollywood stage for motion picture and television soundtracks. Count Basie, Maynard Ferguson Duke Ellington, Buddy Rich, Thad Jones and Mel Lewis, Earth, Wind And Fire, and Tower Of Power, among many others, filled the well for the music his band makes today. And like those other bands, Dresel’s rendering style is nothing less than exciting, driven by one of the most accomplished jazz drummers in the world. Established in 2014, with a live performance tribute to Buddy Rich, The BBB plays monthly at jazz clubs in the Los Angeles metropolitan area. Prior to forming his own jazz orchestra, Bernie backed Maynard Ferguson, the Brian Setzer Orchestra, and Gordon Goodwin’s Big Phat Band. Bernie served 15 years for both Setzer and Goodwin. He has been the drummer on numerous Brian Setzer Grammy Award‐winning recordings and more recently on every recording that Gordon Goodwin’s Big Phat Band has released: Swingin’ For The Fences (Silverline Records), which made history as the first commercially available 5.1‐channel DVD‐ Audio title ever released and the first DVD‐Audio title to receive two Grammy nominations; XXL (Silverline Records) with three Grammy nominations and the Surround Sound Award for “Best Made For Surround Sound Title;” The Phat Pack (Immergent Records), with a Grammy nomination, Act Your Age, with three Grammy nominations; That’s How We Roll (Telarc/Concord Music); Bah Humduck (A Looney Tunes Christmas) and A Big Phat Christmas, released December 2015. Of course, Bernie’s credits with respect to motion picture and television soundtracks represent “A” movie projects and such television work as The Simpsons and Family Guy. (See full credits below under Bernie Dresel.) Bernie’s BBB SRO audiences are enjoying one of the most innovative and original hard‐swinging large jazz ensembles ever. The Project The Auro‐3D Immersive Sound music concert release will feature 68 minutes of new compositions and arrangements recorded in a state‐of‐the‐art “live” Immersive Sound concert production. The project’s working title is The BBB Featuring Bernie Dresel – Live And Energized. The program will feature consummate drummer Bernie Dresel leading his powerhouse BBB, comprised of top Los Angeles‐based studio jazz musicians in a two‐set “live” performance capture of original compositions and arrangements by established composers and arrangers. The Reber Productions project is produced by Gary Reber. The BBB Featuring Bernie Dresel – Live And Energized concert recordings will be distributed in multiple audio formats, including Auro‐3D 11.1‐channel Immersive Sound 96/24 Pure Audio Blu‐ray Disc, 5.1‐channel SACD/CD, audiophile vinyl LP, reel‐to‐reel audiophile tape (The Tape Project) and 96 kHz/24‐bit Digital Download. The project releases will be released on the Monster Music label. The packaging features will include (depending on the release format): • Producers’ Corner – project background and approach • Photos, videos, audio, artist info and more • High‐resolution photographs of concert • Exclusive interviews with Bernie Dresel and BBB musicians • Exclusive bonus Bernie Dresel drum solo • “The Making Of” write‐up containing inside industry viewpoints, procedures, and material • Producer notes and commentary • Discussions on Auro‐3D Immersive Sound production, multichannel recording and mixing techniques • Technical production descriptions • Artist career overviews • And more The Tape Project will release the two‐channel stereo mix on reel‐to‐reel tape from the 192 kHz/24‐bit high‐resolution to analog transfer. (See thetapeproject.com) The Technical Production The live performance will take place in Burbank, California at Joe’s Great American Bar & Grill, an intimate venue The BBB often performs in and whose acoustics are well‐suited to the project. The recording date has been secured for April 19, 2016 before a live audience. The BBB will perform two one‐hour sets of jazz charts with an initial 30 minutes to secure sound checks. The host for the evening will be Bubba Jackson, KJAZZ 88.1 FM radio personality. The BBB will be captured on ProTools (32 tracks) from which an Auro‐3D 11.1‐ channel master audio soundtrack will be derived. The performance will be recorded on 32 full‐range discrete digital channels with 96 kHz/24‐bit resolution using ALL AEA (Audio Engineering Associates) big‐ribbon microphones fed to an API mixing console with ATI 8MX2 audiophile microphone preamps, using the large Studio On Wheels remote recording truck to capture the tracks and monitor. The 32‐track mix will be stored on two Samsung 850 Pro Series SATA III solid‐state drives. The live recording mix in the Studio On Wheels remote studio will be monitored on a multi‐award winning CAT (California Audio Technology) audiophile performance two‐channel MBX 900 Trinity loudspeaker system, along with two CAT MBX S8 Miramar subwoofers. A CAT engineering team will on‐site calibrate and tune the loudspeaker system the day of the recording using CAT’s MBX 12x12 DSP (digital signal processor). The system will be powered by two of the revolutionary SAE 2HP‐ D power amplifier systems at the mixing board. The SAE (Scientific Audio Electronics) amplifier achieves an industry leading >128dB of signal‐to‐noise ratio and THD of only .001 up to 10 watts and less than .01 at full power. The fully differential, fully balanced, push/pull ultra high performance Class A/B amplifier delivers 750 watts (over 1 horsepower) per channel into 8 Ohms and over 2,000 watts of burst power (per channel). The SAE 2HP‐D is world renowned for its clean power, speed, accuracy, musicality and quietness. CAT’s world‐class stereo audiophile performance has been given top accolades from numerous “A” list recording artists, studio engineers, and critics around the globe. CAT and SAE partnered at the 2016 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) show and on‐site engineered, calibrated, and tuned this exact $250,000 ultra high performance "audiophile" music playback system in the Venetian Hotel. Dozens of the world's top reviewers and hundreds of audiophiles gave this system "best sound of 2016" accolades! The larger flagship CAT MBX audio system will be used to monitor and master the post two‐channel mix at Galaxy Studios near Antwerp, Belgium. The 96 kHz/24‐bit PCM master audio tracks will be mixed at Galaxy Studios, renowned worldwide for its leading and state‐of‐the‐art innovation in sound recording and reproduction. It is the home of the Auro‐3D format, which became the first true 3D Immersive Sound audio format with end‐to‐end solutions for all markets. The mixing will be done by Tonmeister Patrick Lemmens, who recorded and mixed many albums in Auro‐3D, as well as many scorings for international movies. (See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQi_bnO0tas) Additionally, a “live‐to‐two‐channel” recording will be produced at 192 kHz/24‐bit resolution and recorded in real time to a Nagra Seven two‐channel digital recorder, as well as a Sony D‐100 two‐channel digital recorder. And, for those guests in the back of the venue who wish to hear what the recording engineers hear, Monster will provide a headphone listening station to listen to the “live” two‐channel mix through Monster Headphones. The final masters will be available in Auro‐3D 11.1, 9.1, 7.1, 5.1, and 2.0 channels. For a Special Collector’s Edition Auro 3‐D 11.1 Blu‐ray Disc release, additional bonus materials will be included. Reber, who owns Widescreen Review magazine and serves as Editor‐In‐Chief & Publisher, plans on publishing an in‐depth case study article series on the production, as well as reaching out to other media for coverage. Immersive Sound Immersive Sound is “Surround Sound with Height,” adding the third and missing dimension in sound reproduction. A height layer is added on top of existing two‐ dimensional 5.1 and 7.1 multi‐channel formats. All those masters will be available on the new Pure Audio Blu‐ray™ format at 96 kHz/24‐bit resolution.

  • Diagnosing Drama: Grey's Anatomy, Blind Casting, and the Politics Of
    Diagnosing Drama: Grey’s Anatomy, Blind Casting, and the Politics of Representation AMY LONG N FEBRUARY 5, 2006 NEARLY THIRTY-EIGHT MILLION VIEWERS CHOSE TO forego post-Super Bowl celebrations in favor of tuning in to a Omuch-hyped episode of ABC’s hit medical melodrama Grey’s Anatomy. The episode thus constitutes ‘‘the best scripted-series perfor- mance since the series finale of Friends’’ in 2004 and ‘‘the best per- formance of an ABC show since an episode of Home Improvement in 1994’’ (‘‘Grey’s Scores Big’’). Grey’s Anatomy and its multiracial ensem- ble stand in marked contrast to the all-white casts of both aforemen- tioned shows, a fact that has not been lost on media observers. When civil rights groups issued their annual ‘‘diversity report cards’’ for 2006, ABC garnered the highest overall grade of the four major net- works (an A-), thanks in part to shows like Grey’s Anatomy, Lost, and Ugly Betty (‘‘Grey’s Leads Charge’’). Its diverse cast and the production practices through which it was assembled have been the major focus of the media attention conferred upon Grey’s, second only to stories con- cerning the colossal audiences it routinely snags.1 The show’s creator, Shonda Rhimes (currently the only African American woman ‘‘showrunner’’ in network television), gives the credit for her show’s diversity to her ‘‘race-blind’’ casting methods. In her Time Magazine profile of the writer and producer, Jeanne McDowell notes that ‘‘[Rhimes’] script for the pilot had no physical descriptions [of its characters] other than gender,’’ a statement repeated in almost all of the popular press coverage the show receives.2 As Rhimes herself affirmed in an interview with Oprah Winfrey, ‘‘We really read every color actor for every single part.
