in fact , fans are already # shipping them . the duo are set to star in awesomenesstv’s new movie “shovel buddies” , fresh off the # 1 hit that was “expelled” .

shovel buddies centres around a group of friends who go on an adventure to fulfill the final wish of their pal who died of leukemia - to be buried in his favourite football jersey .

bella thorne and youtube star kian lawley have landed roles in awesomenesstv ' s shovel buddies , a 2013 black list screenplay about four teenagers who embark on an all - night adventure to honor the memory of their recently deceased friend .

shovel buddies is a movie starring bella thorne , alex neustaedter , and kian lawley . after the death of their best friend , jimmy enlists childhood friend dan , little brother lump , and crush kate to fulfill his last request .

now , awesomenesstv and film 360 will bring one of 2013’s black list entries to fruition . the teen - focused entertainment company and the production studio have teamed up to produce shovel buddies , which was # 8 on the 2013 black list .

awesomenesstv , which recently announced a film - focused partnership with youtube , has already produced several movies that will bring online stars to the big screen . among other projects , the multi - channel network and digital media studio’s upcoming feature film pipeline includes a coming - of - age story called shovel buddies , which was revealed in march . two months later , shovel buddies now has a principal cast : awesomenesstv announced that kian lawley , bella thorne , and alex neustaedter will portray the film’s three main characters .

a group of friends attempt to successfully complete a list of tasks assigned to them as the " shovel list " by their dead friend .

shovel buddies , written by jason hellerman , follows four teenagers as they attempt to complete the bucket list of a friend who has died of leukemia . “along the way , ” reads a press release , “they learn more about themselves , their own relationships and the true meaning of friendship . ”

film 360 initially approached big frame , the talent management company owned by big frame , with a plan to create a version of shovel buddies based around teenage digital stars . big frame brought the film to brian robbins of awesomenesstv who will produce it alongside film 360 . british filmmakers simon atkinson and adam townley will direct .

bella thorne certainly caught our attention when she shared a first - look photo of her new movie character , kate , and now even more pics and details have come out surrounding her new project . the actress is currently filming a new awesomeness tv movie called shovel buddies , with her co - stars kian lawley and alex neustaedter .

si & ad have worked as a directing duo for over a decade , meeting as in - house designers at virgin records . they have enjoyed a prolific career in music videos and commercials , developing their penchant for intricate films which never let the technique get in the way of being touching , charming and filmic . shovel buddies is their debut feature film .

the movie is about four teenagers that set out to accomplish a “shovel list” ( like a bucket list ) of items set by their dead friend , who died of leukemia .

both thorne and sage have worked with awesomeness films before . thorne , who will star in the weinstein co . ' s amityville : the awakening , will be seen in awesomeness ' shovel buddies , which premieres on monday , march 14 , in austin . sage will be in the upcoming awesomeness project before i fall , based on the ya novel by lauren oliver .

exclusive : shovel buddies , a 2013 black list script by jason mark hellerman , will be produced by awesomenesstv and film 360 for day - and - date theatrical and vod release . the film will be directed by english duo si & ad with a likely cast of social - media stars plucked substantially from the stables of awesomenesstv and its big frame talent - management unit .

awesomeness films president matt kaplan acknowledges that shovel buddies is " a little off - center " from the slate that teen - centric awesomeness established in 2015 , which included snervous , a documentary about vlogger tyler oakley , and buddy comedy smosh : the movie . he spoke with the hollywood reporter ahead of the film ' s world premiere about how it fits into the awesomeness brand .

no casting decisions have yet been announced , but awesomenesstv is likely to fill shovel buddies with the online media personalities with whom it is partnered . this is the strategy awesomenesstv used for expelled , which became a vod hit shortly after its december 2014 premiere . big frame’s managers are also co - producing bad night , which will serve as a vehicle for stars jenn mcallister and lauren elizabeth .

of the three leads , lawley’s name will be most familiar to readers of this blog . the 19 - year - old vlogger has amassed millions of fans thanks to his membership with the our2ndlife supergroup , his personal channel , and his recent collaborations with fellow vlogger jc caylen . in addition to shovel buddies , he has also landed a starring role in the chosen , a feature - length thriller .

often when a movie doesn’t meet expectations , i find myself thinking , “well , if they had done it this way , maybe it would have worked . ” however , that is not the case with simon atkinson and adam townley ’s feature directorial debut shovel buddies . the movie has a strong cast and some decent camerawork ( minus one scene shot through the reflection of a mirror ) , but it’s still a total disaster thanks to the ludicrous premise .

shovel buddies tells the story of four friends who come together to do right by their friend sammy , who recently died of leukemia . jimmy ( neustaedter ) finds a letter from sammy asking that he be buried in his favorite football jersey instead of cremated like his parents plan . jimmy enlists his little brother lump ( starkman ) , his other best friend dan ( lawley ) , sammy ' s sister kate ( thorne ) to do honor sammy ' s wishes . philip labes and james c . burns also star .

a while ago i skipped the movie " swiss army man " because i didn ' t feel like watching a movie about a farting corpse . even though daniel radcliffe played this stiff character . i ' m sure there was a deeper meaning behind the whole idea , but i still didn ' t feel like it . when i started watching " shovel buddies " , without knowing what it was about anyway , i noticed this was also a flick with people running around with a death body the entire movie . and…

thus the deal for hellerman’s script , which ended up eighth on the 2013 black list of hollywood’s best unproduced screenplays . the name is a play on the idea of the “bucket list . ” here , a group of four teens whose friend has just died of leukemia strive to do all the items on the friend’s “shovel list” in a single night .

tiene adolescentes , es de adolescentes , esta película es para mi . bueno resultó original y a la vez lo que esperaba . me aburrió que haya tantas cosas confusas . no me gustó que hayan incluido snapchat xd me gustó la idea de la shovel list y tener que hacer una limpieza para que los papas de tu amigo no encuentren nada de lo dirty . el protagonista es dicaprio junior kian < 3333333333 me pareció que el personaje del nene estuvo muy suelto . y la preocupación por los padres y la casa y el auto y todo ese deal ? es medio fantástica . . la idea de llevar un cadaver de acá para allá , sea quien fuese en vida . . es medio turbia a mi parecer . sentí que…

' the duff ' actress will play one of four friends who embark on an all - night adventure to do right by their friend who died of leukemia .

casting is underway , and filming is expected to begin by may . the project is the latest full - length being created by dreamworks animation - owned awesomeness and was packaged by big frame . it is being developed and distributed on a fast track similar to last year’s expelled feature , said big frame co - president larry shapiro .

expelled was a high school comedy featuring several performers with a big presence on either youtube or vine . it was released december 12 on vod and a handful of theaters , then four days later was on digital home - entertainment platforms , where it quickly rose to no . 1 on apple’s itunes store . the compressed release pattern took advantage of the social - media marketing push , allowing fans to find the film on whatever distribution platform they most wanted . shapiro said the film made money , though he declined to detail how much .

“we’re evolving this model , ” shapiro said of the approach to the new movie . “when you look at the past couple of success stories , what we’re doing is elevating the story . ”

‘it’s a little stand by me , a little breaking away , ” shapiro said . “they are stories about coming of age that you can relate to at any age . ”

film 360 , which represents hellerman , brought the script to shapiro , who got signoff from awesomeness’ top executives brian robbins and shauna phelan , who produced both smosh : the movie and expelled . big frame then packaged the deal .

“it’s an exciting time as stories are being created and told in so many different ways , ” said 360 co - founding partner guymon casady .

film 360 has both a management and production side , and as producers , the company’s dean schnider and former 360 executive ali itri came up with the idea of putting a traditional script with non - traditional talent . 360 approached big frame , which then approached awesomenesstv to find the best partners in the digital space .

shapiro said casting likely will include a number of awesomeness and big frame social - media stars who can both act and bring along their big online audiences .

“we’re in the middle of a generational shift of how kids are receiving their experience of films , ” shapiro said . ‘this is kind of a statement about how movies get made in a digital framework . ”

he declined to specify the film’s budget but said awesomeness would be “spending more than most have on these kinds of things . ”

the directors are simon atkinson and adam townley , known in england collectively as si & ad and for their work producing commercials with a gritty , indie feel . the pair are repped by wme and grandview .

producers will be shapiro , robbins , phelan , itri , schnider and film 360’s ben forkner . hellerman is repped by management 360 , verve and carlos goodman of bloom , hergott , diemer , rosenthal , laviolette & feldman , llp . hellerman also found his representation through the blacklist , talking about it on a blog post on that site .

after the death of their best friend , jimmy enlists childhood friend dan , little brother lump , and crush kate to fulfill his last request .

after receiving their dead best friend ' s will via snapchat , a group of friends set out to fulfill his last wish .

the film stars alex neustaedter as jimmy . when his best friend sammy dies of leukemia , it falls upon him to fulfill sammy’s last wish , to be buried in his favorite football jersey . sammy is just about to be cremated when jimmy gets the message , but that doesn’t stop him . with some help from his former friend dan ( kian lawley ) , his little brother lump ( anton starkman ) and sammy’s sister kate ( bella thorne ) , jimmy goes above and beyond to honor his best friend’s request , even if it means breaking the law and risking his life in the process .

there’s something endearing about someone willing to risk everything to fulfill a dead friend’s wish , but the way jimmy goes about it is absolutely ridiculous . the first big eye roll comes when sammy delivers his last will and testament to jimmy via snapchat , an element that’s a bit too “hip” for its own good . then , when sammy’s grief - stricken parents tell jimmy that they would rather not pick up their dead son’s body to put a football jersey on him , jimmy and co . decide that the next best move is to go to the facility , steal the corpse and drive around town collecting the tools they need to bury him themselves .

first off , who in their right mind – teenager or adult – would ever think that is a good idea ? if sammy’s parents aren’t up for it , why not just wait for the morgue attendant to return ? they most certainly didn’t need to smash a window , break in and steal the body . i also imagine that someone’s parents had to have had some shovels laying around . jimmy did not need to drive his parents’ car through a storefront window so that they could steal two of them . you know what else makes no sense and doesn’t fit in the film ? the joyful singalong / dance party they have in the car with sammy bouncing around in the middle . it’s also rather grotesque to glorify cigarette smoking in a movie about a teenager who loses his life to cancer .

screenwriter jason hellerman has the main characters making one nonsensical decision after the next , and each and every one makes the movie increasingly uncomfortable to watch . it isn’t funny seeing jimmy and dan fumble around with a corpse and it also isn’t picturesque to show the four living characters sitting in the car with the body either . and while it may make sense for one of them to give up their pants so that sammy isn’t exposed during their big adventure , we really don’t need to see jimmy running around in his underwear the entire film . they stop for shovels and candy , but they can’t get him a new pair of pants ?

even worse , the movie never makes a good case for why sammy means so much to jimmy . in fact , at one point , new character details emerge that make you question jimmy’s intense loyalty to his late friend . hellerman also tries to cram in a laundry list of peripheral issues that feel forced and never come close to enhancing the main narrative . there’s the fact that jimmy slept with kate despite sammy’s objections , there’s the tension between jimmy and dan , and the problems that arise from jimmy neglecting his little brother . it’s all supposed to tie into the main mission to bury sammy , but hellerman doesn’t come anywhere close to pulling it off and making it all mean something .

atkinson and hellerman clearly had good intentions and the whole cast gives the material their all , but there is just no making this story work . it seems as though the duo was going for something along the lines of stand by me , but the kids in that movie don’t sound like “wise beyond their years” jerks , make reckless decisions or bop around with a dead body for 60 minutes .

i find it so difficult to root for characters in films where the plot is kicked off by something so easily avoided to begin with . when i wasn ' t cringing at every unnecessary plot pushing bad decision after another i enjoyed the drama that was not under minded by the well balanced humor . the pacing works against the story sadly but the leads are relatable as they fight each other over the reality of death and loss while reevaluating what seems so important to teenagers before they have to face real life conflicts .

" when i was seven , i met my best friends . they were idiots , and i loved them for it . we did everything together . no matter what , we had each other ' s backs . nothing could change that , even when this jackass got cancer . "

prepare for a night shoot amidst huge flood lights and even bigger mountains of dirt . the flick—produced by awesomeness films and starring bella thorne , kian lawley , alex neustaedter , philip labes , and anton starkman—takes place mostly over the course of a single night . " the tone of this movie has to be in the shadows , " writer jason hellerman explains . " for these characters , in the darkness of their own lives , it ' s weird if it ' s sunny out . "

the plot , which centers around a group of friends trying to complete the dying wishes of a leukemia patient , sammy , is bound to have its share of serious moments . surprisingly , there ' s plenty of humor here too ( think the darkly funny kind ) . when sammy ' s friends receive a posthumous snapchat request—to bury him in his football jersey—they wind up accidentally stealing the body . you probably don ' t need us to tell you this , but things start getting a little out of control after the unintentional body snatching .

it ' s the kind of story that will make you laugh and cry in equal parts , mostly because it feels so true to life . that definitely has a lot to do with jason ' s inspiration ; his own friend mike was diagnosed with stage iv leukemia , and passed away . to come to terms with his own feelings , jason channeled his energy into rewriting the script until he felt he had fully tapped into his characters ' emotions . so if you watch this and notice that the characters are behaving and reacting like actual , non - imaginary people would to a friend ' s death , you ' re right . as bella puts it , many of the characters give off certain first impressions , but there ' s definitely much more complex stuff to be unraveled underneath .

" people tend to be glamorized when they pass away , so the film is about realizing who someone is , in both their positive and negative qualities , " echoes philip , who plays sammy . his positive qualities ? " he made it about trying to enjoy your life while you ' re alive . "

" kate tries to fill a void that she wishes jimmy [ alex ] could fill , but he doesn ' t—because he dates her character in the film , then leaves her alone and stranded . and then her brother dies on her , so in order to fill that emptiness and sadness , she fills it with boys . she has no other way . "

" i see the scared little girl…she ' s very bad and tough , but you know there ' s little moments that i hope we captured on screen where you see she really is scared and uncomfortable and self - conscious . she just wants someone to love her . if you don ' t know that about my character , then you kind of don ' t understand her short , rude , abruptness in the film . "

" jimmy is really the mold for everybody . he brings everyone together in the beginning , and towards the end when it starts to break down , he has to make huge decisions to turn it around . i think what people like most about his character is that he never gives up . he has huge dignity throughout the entire thing , and that ' s what makes him special . "

" he ' s very adventurous , and like myself , he doesn ' t give up . he ' s also athletic , so he ' s able to use his body a lot of the time . he ' s a very physical guy . throughout the script , he ' s carrying sammy , and i think that just shows how much compassion he has and how much he cares about his best friend who ' s passed away . "

" dan is a badass . he gets himself into trouble a lot by saying what ' s on his mind ; he speak freely . he doesn ' t really care about other people ' s feelings . but deep down , he does care a lot about his friends . dan ' s more direct , he doesn ' t beat around the bush . overall , he ' s badass though . "

" my character is very outspoken . he speaks his mind and doesn ' t really care about other people ' s feelings when he says it . that doesn ' t necessarily mean that i do that ! but sometimes i say things that probably shouldn ' t be said , at the wrong times . i ' m one of those people that giggle at a funeral , just randomly . but he still has values and values his friendship with sammy—he ' s authentic . "

" he ' s jimmy ' s brother , and he ' s kind of always there because he just wants to be a part of everything . they don ' t necessarily give him approval at first , though , because he ' s younger . "

" it ' s funny because kian—dan—he ' s actually as old as my brother who ' s 19 . and alex is 17 , the same age as my other brother . so when my mom told kian and alex that , they were like , ' oh , so your family is basically dan , jimmy , and lump . ' i was like , ' yup ! ' "

college is the best . you get to spend four years surrounded by your friends , living it up and swimming in education . then , in the blink of an eye , it’s over . everyone’s all smiles and laughs for pictures at graduation . it’s a rush of adrenaline making sure you see the gang , before you split up to join the so - called “real world . ”

then , before you know it , all of the hype around getting that diploma has been replaced by one looming question . it’s the same question you’ll get from long - lost aunt polly and grandma’s half - cousin , uncle todd :

like some of you , i just finished college . it was great ! i met incredible people who’ve become more like family than friends , and i found mentors who i trust . unfortunately , those people just went from being a 15 - minute walk across campus to thousands of miles away in different directions .

usually , when someone tells their life story , they mention how they felt about college , then what it was like starting their first job . nobody talks about the in - between—what it’s like to go from feeling like your life’s on the up and up to being back at home with your parents , applying to jobs for months on end . meanwhile , that one girl you know from college is already working at her dream job while living in her own apartment .

post - grad is a weird transition period that no one prepares you for—until about a month before it hits you straight in the face . seriously , though ! this is like middle school - level angst that i’m starting to feel because it seems as if there are a million questions that have to be answered all at once . this limbo stage exists . people go through it . it’s extraordinarily stressful having no idea what’s happening next in life . more than that , it’s incredibly difficult to avoid comparing yourself to people your age .

on top of the never - ending stream of questions ( what’s next ? where are you living ? do you have a job yet ? ) , there’s the job hunt . the struggle is real . it’s really stressful . i’m trying to figure out how to pay bills , but also how to function as a sociable human being . getting to the next phase in life is , without a doubt , going to be messy .

first , it’s ok not to have a job right now . it’s ok to still be figuring out what you want to do with the rest of your life .

second , comparing yourself to others will achieve absolutely nothing . everyone moves at a different pace . that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t push yourself and strive for the best . it means that everyone’s limit is different and someone else’s definition of “the best” doesn’t have to be yours .

lastly , no matter what career path you end up choosing , remember that you’ll likely be working for the next 50 + years . if you want to take some time to relax , do it . don’t let anyone make you feel bad for taking time to be a person with no responsibilities for a hot minute .

apparently , there’s a process that we’re supposed to trust . embrace the mess .

the production company , a division of dreamworks animation - owned awesomenesstv , has started production on horror film you get me from writer ben epstein ( happyland ) . the project is being directed by brent bonacorso , who is behind the opening titles for hbo ' s the jinx .

bella thorne and halston sage have signed on to the thriller , which will begin filming in los angeles in april .

you get me centers on tyler , who gets into a fight with his perfect girlfriend , ali ( sage ) , and falls into the arms of sexy out - of - towner grace ( thorne ) . the next morning , ali agrees to take him back but he discovers that grace is a new student at their school and is set on keeping her new man .

you get me joins a growing number of films from awesomeness , including 2015 releases snervous , a documentary about tyler oakley , and smosh : the movie .

bonacorso is represented by uta and underground ; epstein is with caa ; sage is repped by caa and roar ; thorne is repped by wme and thor bradwell at lbi entertainment .

the coming - of - age drama about a group of friends who set out to fulfill their late friend ' s final wish represents a new type of project for awesomeness films , the movie division of dreamworks animation - owned atv that was established last year . awesomeness picked up the dark script off the black list , hired commercial directors simon atkinson and adam townley to direct , and cast a mix of traditional and digital talent including youtuber kian lawley , bella thorne ( amityville : the awakening ) and alex neustaedter ( colony ) .

this is a project that we bought off of the black list a while back . it ' s one that really came together nicely . we ' ve got an amazing directing duo named si & ad , who have done pretty elevated commercial work . we were really wanting to take steps in a more adult direction with the movie . i think that it ' s really grounded and real , and we were able to attract a really promising cast with bella thorne and kian lawley , one of our bigger influencers , and a wonderful young actor who ' s more traditional named alex neustaedter . it was the perfect film to take after the other films that we ' ve done . it really represents the direction that we ' re headed in . south by particularly is such a fun festival . it premieres films that are usually for this younger audience in a way that we felt like it was the perfect place for it .

while other people may be making influencer - driven movies , we ' re about quality . awesomeness is about elevating and supporting our influencers . just like we did this film , we ' re trying to get a great piece of writing , great director and work with our influencers to make sure we get the biggest reach possible and in front of as many viewers as possible .

we ' re still devising our plan in terms of the rollout strategy . it may be a theatrical thing or it may be a digital thing , but that ' s the fun part . distribution at this company is fluid . we choose the path after we ' ve screened it and seen the response , as opposed to having a more traditional route . that ' s the part of our business that we ' re most excited by . we feel like , as content providers , its our responsibility to make great movies and focus on the business aspect later . we ' ve been able to have success with that model .

this movie is an r - rated film that is very grounded and real and emotional . we felt like it was a story that we wanted to tell . we wanted to come out with something that was a little off - center for what we had been doing . but moving forward , i still think it ' s about making sure that we ' re touching that core 13 - to - 25 demo when everyone else in traditional is leaving them behind . the film that we just completed is before i fall . that ' s a movie that ' s more of a pg - 13 , based on a ya best - selling book that ' s very grounded . zoey deutch plays the lead in that . it ' s really about making sure that we continue to tell stories that elevate the material and the actors that we ' re working with .

young adults don ' t want filters , ultimately . when you ' re in the room of tyler oakley , he ' s speaking to the camera and he ' s really honest and real . i don ' t think it ' s about ratings but i do think it ' s about not speaking down to your audience and allowing them to feel like this story that they ' re being told is something that they can really relate to .

i think that there ' s this kind of amazing shift that ' s happening now where traditional actors now are interested in figuring out how they can grow their social reach . and then someone like kian who may have come from digital is now learning how to be on - set and figure out how all of that works . that is what the future is . actors and directors want to speak directly to their audience . and it ' s a great opportunity for them and us to collaborate and have the support of our enormous channel to help them grow .

devoid of a compelling mystery and lacking any visceral horror , “cool air” has no chance of being anything other than a dull and plodding exercise to see if an audience can sit still and remain awake for more than an hour . alas , the film seemed determined to be as dreadfully boring as possible anyway .

that wall of text continues unabated in voiceover form via incessant narration laid over the entire movie . h . p . lovecraft’s original story was indeed a first - person narrative , but the adaptation in “cool air” is an overindulgent screenplay focused on a constant barrage of neverending words . any doubt about that statement’s veracity is permanently shattered when the film begins staging conversation montages by superimposing the script onscreen as the narrator reads the same text . “cool air” just cannot get enough of hearing , and literally seeing , its own words .

i was very impressed with the quality of the short films here . all of the films are true works of art which pay respectful tribute to the master of horror , h . p . lovecraft . cool air is a superior film worthy of any film festival . it is beautifully photographed and for the most part , quite well acted . it is well worth checking out if you are a lovecraft fan .

much of the tender , melt - in - the - mouth texture of cake comes from gas bubbles , which subdivide the batter into fragile sheets . the majority of this air is added in this initial stage by vigorous mixing of the fat and sugar – a process called " creaming " . air is carried along on the rough surfaces of the sugar crystals . this is why we use caster sugar , as the smaller the crystals , the more air is incorporated . these bubbles of air are encased by a film of fat , creating a foam .

the effort to stay true to the spirit of lovecraft’s short story deserves a bit of recognition but in general cool air shouldn’t take up our time . the work of the dark spirit that haunted providence , and the american horror tradition , deserves better .

" cool air " is a short horror story by the american author h . p . lovecraft . the story was written in march 1926 and first published in the magazine tales of magic and mystery in march 1928 . it has since appeared in numerous anthologies .

" cool air " is one of the most accessible stories by lovecraft . it is a short , classic tale of horror similar to those written by edgar allan poe . the story is not part of the cthulhu mythos for which the author is best known .

featuring aerial sequences , a captivating original score and stories told by pilots , air traffic controllers , historians and flight enthusiasts , the independent film makes a strong case for the importance of the " unsung hero of aviation , " the local airport .

angel van croft at horror news dotnet , ( link ) - " overall i can’t say that i would recommend cool air . if you are a fan of lovecraft than i would say check it out although i can’t guarantee you’ll enjoy it . . . . "

the film , which is also a tale of romance during wartime , won two oscars for best picture and best effects .

a longtime figure on the lovecraft scene , bryan moore has made an indelible mark with his films and sculptures based on the work on the old gent , most notably as the sculptor of the bronze bust of lovecraft which now permanently resides in the providence athenaeum library , now a pilgrimage for lovecraft fans , and as the director of the seminal lovecraft film " cool air " . he also created the annual howie award given to those who excel in promoting lovecraft ' s work in the arts at the h . p . lovecraft film festival . he will be presenting a sneak peek of his new film adaptation of " the shadow over innsmouth " .

bc presenter andrew marr appeared to lose his cool on his sunday morning programme yesterday after confusion about which camera he was supposed to be speaking into .

not only will we remaster the original black and white version of " cool air " as well as creating the new " duo - chrome " edition , but we ' ll also be including the teaser for my next lovecraft film " the shadow over innsmouth " which has been in development for a while now . the goal is that once the new " cool air " dvd / blu - ray is funded and released , that will allow us to continue building the arkham cinema brand to create more lovecraft films the way they should be created : maintaining the integrity of the original story and shot in the same time and locales that lovecraft set his classic tales . his fans demand nothing less .

cool air comes with zero special features ( in fact , it advertises its trailers as special features ) . on the one hand , this maybe makes some sense , given that it’s difficult to imagine anyone wanting director’s commentary and making of featurettes . at the same time , this often feels like it underscores how little time and attention went into the making of the film . no one even bothered to label the scenes .

the total runtime is 78 minutes and that includes a combined total of 14 minutes for the opening credits and the end credits . do the math and that leaves just four minutes more than an hour for the film itself . for good measure , “cool air” closes things off with three more screens of text before launching into what is possibly the slowest end credit crawl in movie history . there must have been a legal requirement for the film to be 78 minutes , and the only way to pad that time was to put the credits through slow motion .

albert pyun’s effort at bringing the providence , rhode island , author of weird fiction to the screen hews closer to the master’s work , but fails to give us a film worth watching . lovecraft wrote a nasty little scare call “cool air” that , while much less well - known than masterpieces like “at the mountains of madness” or “call of cthulhu , manages to pack into just a few pages plenty of his trademark squishy macabre .

at the cost of sounding redundant , i have found cool air to the the as - of - yet best adaptation of a lovecraft story , and a very , very worthy film in its own . cool air is taken from hpl ' s short story of the same name , and talks about the meeting of the main character , carter in this version , with the mysterious dr munoz , and the resulting facts . bryan moore , director and lead , is decent , but not exceptional in either role . the supporting mrs caprezzi is very good , but jack donner as doctor munoz is astounding - it ' s worth watching this film for his performance alone . also , for such a small production , the film is very well done , and the accompanying soundtrack is at times almost moving . having watched in my life way too many mythos - inspired films , i have to say , this one tops them all , going well above the more complicated the whisperer in darkness . cannot recommend enough . must watch now !

shot back in 2006 , albert pyun’s cool air didn’t hit the us market until may 21 st , 2013 . that’s a long time to gestate . an adaptation of h . p . lovecraft’s short story of the same title , this one wanders our way fresh from the depths of no budget land . however , pyun shows some savvy in cutting the proper corners to syphon the most possible from a very limited production . cool air isn’t going to… blow you away ( didn’t mean to do it , i swear ! ) , but if you’re a fan of lovecraft’s work , you may find yourself pleasantly surprised .

if heat is not your thing , rejoice : a thin plastic sheet may soon provide some relief from the intense summer sun . the film , made from transparent plastic embedded with tiny glass spheres , absorbs almost no visible light , yet pulls in heat from any surface it touches . already , the new material , when combined with a mirrorlike silver film , has been shown to cool whatever it sits on by as much as 10°c . and because it can be made cheaply at high volumes , it could be used to passively cool buildings and electronics such as solar cells , which work more efficiently at lower temperatures .

evaporative coolers combine natural water properties with a steady , light airflow to reduce indoor temperatures – ideal for situations where the air is hot and the humidity is low . they are particularly useful for indoor areas where it is difficult to find a door or window to open to duct away warm air .

as an avid fan of howard phillips lovecraft , i must strongly protest the rankings that portray this film as a " 5 - star " movie .

the film won two oscars , for best supporting actor and best sound , and was nominated for best picture . peck was nominated for best actor .

the film features interviews with a who’s who of famous fliers paying tribute to the man who seemed to be able to do the impossible in an airplane .

“cool air” opens with six consecutive screens of narrative text lasting nearly two minutes . the story may be based on the literature of one of horror’s greatest authors , but the point of a movie is to tell a tale visually . delivering exposition through that much required reading right off the bat is a poor way to start a filmed story .

“none of it was in a studio , ” he says . “i was in the air . i was flying alongside spitfires with an imax camera strapped to the wing . or it was in a gimbal with the cockpit suspended over a cliff with the sea behind it . it was a strange experience in that i spent a lot of the time on my own . it was a bit like england is mine that way . i did that just before and i’d spent half that film in his bedroom . ha ha ! so i was used to the idea . but if you see me in the air , i am in the air . ”

so they bought a batch of glass powder from a commercial supplier and mixed it with the starting material for a transparent plastic called polymethylpentene . they then formed their material into 300 - millimeter - wide sheets and backed them with a thin mirrorlike coating of silver . when laid across objects in the midday sun , the bottom layer of silver reflected almost all the visible light that hit it : the film absorbed only about 4 % of incoming photons . at the same time , the film sucked heat out of whatever surface it was sitting on and radiated that energy at a mid - ir frequency of 10 micrometers . because few air molecules absorb ir at that frequency , the radiation drifts into empty space without warming the air or the surrounding materials , causing the objects below to cool by as much as 10°c . just as important , yin notes that the new film can be made in a roll - to - roll setup for a cost of only $ 0 . 25 to $ 0 . 50 per square meter .

. but thanks to some unpredictable recipe of casting and charisma , con air remains the oddest of 1990s popcorn movies : half disreputable prison flick , half gleaming aerosmith video .

why did cool world ultimately fail ? the director , ralph bakshi , was extremely vocal following the film’s release . he said in an interview that the film’s producer , “frank mancuso , jr . , had the script rewritten in secret . i had a huge fight with the guy and punched mancuso , jr . in the mouth . ” paramount and bakshi also didn’t see eye to eye on the desired rating of the flick ; bakshi envisioned the film as a “hard - r” animated horror and paramount wanted pg - 13 . kim basinger , who plays the vamp holli would , arranged a meeting with producers and bakshi to have an intervention about the rating . basinger wanted to be able to show the film to children in hospitals , according to bakshi . “i said , ‘kim , i think that ' s wonderful , but you ' ve got the wrong guy to do that with . ’”

the 1999 bryan moore film cool air is a largely faithful adaptation of the short story . the main character ( played by moore ) is given the name of randolph carter in homage to a recurring character created by lovecraft . a sentimental backstory is given to dr . muñoz ( played by jack donner ) which portrays the doctor as a lonely widower still mourning his wife who died during a cholera outbreak nearly twenty years ago . the doctor ' s final note does not end with the revelation but goes on to tell carter never to underestimate the power of the will .

if the climate is dry , it may not be necessary to package dried foods as they will not pick up moisture from the air . however a humid climate is likely to result in dried foods gaining moisture and going mouldy . the stability of dried foods depends not only on the humidity of the air at which a food neither gains nor loses weight ( the ' equilibrium relative humidity ' ) , but also on the type of food . different foods can be grouped according to their ability to absorb moisture from the air . the two groups are

combined , all of jurassic park ' s cg dinos have just 6 minutes of screen time , while total dinosaur effects shots make up only 14 minutes of the 127 minute film .

casualties are high at the height of bombing missions in world war ii , and the american crew of the b - 17 bomber memphis belle has one mission left in its tour of duty . the plot of the film follows the u . s . army air corps bombing crew during its harrowing and historic final bombing raid over the heavily fortified city of bremen , germany .

the soundtrack , at least , received praise . still , not even the original david bowie song ( yes , bowie made a song for this movie ) “ real cool world ” could redeem this titanic . looking back on cool world now , there is a lot of redeemable traits the film possesses . nothing looks like cool world looks . rightly so , as bakshi took years cultivating his craft with films like career kickstarter fritz the cat ( 1972 ) , the powerful holocaust metaphor wizards ( 1977 ) and a send - up of disney’s infamous song of the south , coonskin ( 1975 ) . he’s inspired the likes of peter jackson , the creator of ren & stimpy john k . and kanye west , whose music video for “heartless” pays tribute to bakshi’s american pop ( 1981 ) . and just maybe the next gia coppola project ?

something in the air ( which has the much cooler french title apres mai ) is olivier assayas ' plot - light look at his own youth , and it ' s one of the best of these types of films since woody allen ' s radio days or john boorman ' s hope and glory . assayas has made some great movies ( irma vep , carlos , summer hours ) and some bad ones , too ( clean , boarding gate , demonlover , ) and this one might just be his best . on paper , it is just meandering – it ' s “what i did on my summer vacation” as we watch a guy hang out with friends , paint , screw around , get in debates but pretty much keep his cool . he ' s a cool guy ! it ' s a cool life ! who wouldn ' t want to watch ?

current work includes commissions from the british film institute ( dvd covers for archive releases of classic children ' s film foundation films , and a new poster for a the1930’s classic a farewell to arms’ ) , cover art for limited - edition vinyl releases of cult soundtracks ( including zombie flesh eaters , house by the cemetery , and city of the living dead , and the beyond .

bottling and canning are essentially similar processes in that food is filled into a container and heated to destroy enzymes and micro - organisms . fruits can be packed into jars with a hot , sugar syrup and vegetables can be packed into a hot brine . the filled jars are sealed and pasteurized so that an internal vacuum forms when they are cool . the sealed container then preserves the food by preventing re - contamination and excluding air and sometimes light . preservation depends on an adequate heat treatment and an air - tight ( or ' hermetic ' ) seal . the process for bottled fruit is shown in figure 8 .

the navy actually reported its highest application rates after top gun was released , which must have something to do with how fun it looks to fly the f - 14s featured in the film .

beaten egg is added to the mixture to stop the fat - coated air bubbles , created by creaming , from collapsing when heated . the egg proteins conveniently form a layer around each air bubble . as the temperature of the cake rises in the heat of the oven this layer coagulates to form a rigid wall around each bubble , preventing it from bursting and ruining the cake ' s texture .

more gonzo than snakes on a plane , more muscular than liam neeson’s non - stop , con air could proudly claim to be the best aeroplane - related action movie of all time , even if it wasn’t quite the biggest of summer 1997 . that honour fell to air force one , an equally patriotic but rather more stately movie and one that , sadly , does not hinge on requesting a bunny be put back in a box . wolfgang petersen’s movie eventually made $ 315m worldwide while con air stalled at $ 225m . but ask yourself this : which one would you like to watch right now ?

this film , named after the plane used in the first successful trans - atlantic flight , is a biography of aviation hero charles lindbergh , culminating in his legendary flight from new york to paris .

due to the meticulous nature of hughes ' directing , the film cost $ 4 million ( roughly $ 57 million in today ' s dollars ) and took two and a half years to shoot .

dried fruits and vegetables are usually packaged in one of the many different types of plastic film . the selection of the correct type of packaging material depends on a complex mix of considerations which include :

these are often used on set under an eezee shade . the standing black fan keeps air continuously circulating for regulated climate control . it is best suited to smaller domestic - sized rooms and holding areas .

“i didn’t grow up with the smiths , ” he says . “when i read the script , i thought it was incredibly funny . it is the story of this extremely awkward teenager . the fact that he became morrissey is sort of the icing on the cake . i found the guy on the page so entertaining . he really tries and i always find that more endearing than people who actually are cool . i prefer those who just try to be cool . ”

the film is undeniably bizarre : pitt plays a 40s - style detective whose only purpose is to warn the only other human in the film , jack deebs , to abstain from fucking a cartoon hussy named holli would . to have sex with her would transform her into a “noid” – i . e . a living , breathing human . holli wants to join the real world , and so her advances become increasingly urgent . it’s never explained why it would be so bad for a cartoon to become human , but the lines between the real world and the cool world blur once holli would loses her v - card and becomes real .

for the lowly protagonist , david mann , spielberg hand - picked character actor dennis weaver because he loved his performance as the jittery and feeble hotel night manager in orson welles’s 1958 film touch of evil .

there are other minor efforts to connect the film to the lovecraft ethos . images of what could be lovecraftian old ones appear during the credits , as does an opening epigraph from an entirely different short story

pre cooling pre cooling removes field heat rapidly from the freshly harvested cut flowers . precooling lowers respiration rate , water loss and ethylene synthesis . most of the time , greatest loss occurs due to delay in precooling . generally two methods of cooling are followed . the first one is room cooling and the other one is forced air - cooling . in room cooling , the flowers are held in buckets which are placed in a cooler . in the forced air cooling system , the flowers packed in perforated boxes are subjected to cool air blasts for a specific period in a closed room to remove field heat . the flowers take 20 - 30 minutes for cooling in forced cooling depending on the flower type and initial temperature in the box . proper temperature ( 1 . 7°c to 4°c ) and relative humidity ( 90 - 95 % ) maintenance are critical to the success of precooling , otherwise the flowers will dessicate .

although coming in at a very slim 78 minutes ( that includes an interminable credits sequence ) , cool air moves slowly , without ever really managing to create any tension . flat acting accounts for much of the feeling of slackness . but part of the problem , too , comes from a script that can’t produce dialogue . in one scene , weisser half - heartedly mouths , “should i call the paramedics ? ” as a body dissolves into swirling nothingness in his arms .

“which was phenomenal , ” feltrin said . “it was nice , too , because a lot of the people supporting it are people that have watched our other skits and videos so they wanted us to make new content , which is pretty cool . ”

given that the film begins with a background story about a doctor in possession of an ancient egyptian relic rumored to raise the dead , and then introduces an unseen character who requires “cool air” at all times , the “mystery” at the heart of the story should be self - explanatory . the essential flaw in the horror movie’s plot is that the reveal of the doctor’s true nature is fatally obvious from the start , removing any semblance of suspense . and with that doctor having no more nefarious of a motive than cheating death , there is no room for any scene of true terror to take place either . what the movie ends up with is a pg - style affair of bloodless boredom .

convert the alcohol in wine to produce acetic acid , ( spoiled wine is often due to the unwanted presence of acetic acid bacteria ) . whereas in wine production , air is excluded from the vessel by an air lock ( figure 24 ) , in this second fermentation it is important for the bacteria to be in contact with air as much as possible . this is done traditionally by allowing the wine to trickle over a stack of wood shavings or twigs that are held in an open framework , named a ' generator ' which allows free circulation of air . the wood becomes covered in the bacteria and the process either operates continuously , re - circulating the wine a number of times until the acetic acid levels rise sufficiently , or part of a batch is retained to inoculate the next batch . typically , vinegar contains 6 - 10 % acetic acid , which preserves the product for many months / years provided that it is sealed in an airtight container to prevent the acetic acid from evaporating . more modem vinegar fermenters pump air into the wine and are sufficiently expensive to be beyond the reach of most small scale producers .

remember that episode of " the fresh prince of bel - air " when will interviews for a spot at princeton ? the whole thing isn ' t going too well until will solves the dean ' s rubik ' s cube . apparently , that little trick is actually a hobby of the actor ' s . he would do it again in his film " the pursuit of happyness " and he also showed off his skills on a foreign talk show .

as technology rapidly changes , it won ' t be enough to simply have a dvd release , but we ' ve also listened to the many lovecraft fans who want a blu - ray disc release as well . as production of a blu - ray disc is considerably more expensive , we ' ll be adding a stretch goal of $ 17 , 000 . 00 to absorb that cost . for all of you die - hard fans , we ' ll also be unlocking some stretch goal rewards levels , such as arkham cinema lapel pins , the original theatrical poster of cool air in sepia and cool blue and a few goodies that we know will kick you right into " gotta have it " mode , but we ' ll save those surprises for when we hit that stretch goal !

what i thought might be fun is to release not only the original black and white theatrical version , but to also create a new color - tinted edition , much like the classic films of the twenties such as lon chaney ' s " the phantom of the opera " where certain colors were used to evoke mood and emotion . thanks to the modern tinting process of duo - chrome , we can emulate those great films in cinematic history and give " cool air " a new life in this special edition .

unit heaters these are localized system of heating and a number of unit heaters are to be provided in the greenhouse at a height of about 3 meter to distribute heat evenly in the greenhouse . in a unit heater the fuel is combusted in the chamber at bottom . hot fumes rise inside the heat exchanger tubes , giving heat to the walls of the tubes . smoke exists at the top . a fan forces cool air of the greenhouse over the outside of heat exchange tubes , where it picks up heat .

baking can be broken into three stages : expansion , setting and browning . as the batter temperature rises , the gases in the air cells expand the stretchy gluten from the flour , then the chemical leavening agents release carbon dioxide . as the batter reaches 60c , water vapour begins to form and expand the air cells even further . carbon dioxide and water vapour account for approximately 90 % of the subsequent expansion of the batter , the remaining 10 % being due to thermal expansion .

as the truck rams the car over the cliff and falls off in the final film , there is a low roar sound effect that the filmmaker included to emphasize the death of the truck . spielberg , who wanted the truck to seem

it was during the 17th century that eggs became the dominant ingredient for raising cakes , gradually replacing yeast . this was before chemical raising agents , so all of the air in the cake had to be added by vigorous beating . one early recipe states that four eggs should be " beaten together for two hours " to lighten a fine biscuit bread . these air bubbles were then trapped during the baking , a little like in a soufflé , to produce a light and fluffy cake .

one of the guards gets seriously hurt and when it looks like he ' ll press charges they all decide to split for italy . if you are asking “where are the parents ? ” the film will not answer . revolutionary syntax perhaps ?

in this action - packed thriller , air force one is hijacked by a group of terrorists , leaving it up to the president of the united states alone to save his family and culminating with an iconic midair plane - to - plane rescue scene .

alcohol has a lower boiling point than water and distillation ( vaporising the alcohol and then condensing it ) is used to concentrate the alcohol in spirit drinks . distillation is carried out in a still which is a clean drum , fitted with a safety valve and a pipe to carry away the vapour . wine or other alcoholic liquor is placed inside the drum and heated . the alcohol vapour is passed through cooled air or cool water and the distillate condenses and is collected . note : distillation is illegal in many countries without a government licence .
