VOIVOD tribute video
I'm currently working on a short tribute video for the ultimate metal band VOIVOD.
It's an honor for me to say the least to work on this project, since it's my all time favorite band and that I'm inspired alot by the artworks from their drummer Away.
It will be screened at the Club Soda (1225 St-Laurent, Montréal, QC, Canada) on saturday September 1st as part of the PIGGY's 'Quebec Metal Hall Of Fame' Induction.
The induction will take place as part of "1982 – 2007: 25 ans Métal Québécois", a three-day festival celebrating 25 years of Quebec metal, set to take place August 31 - September 2, 2007 at Club Soda. The tribute/induction will be presented in three parts:
1) Video produced by Syl Disjonk.
2) A few people, including Snake, will speak about Denis.
3) Musical medley arranged and performed by Blacky and guitarist Dan Mongrain (MARTYR). The medley will consist of excerpts from VOIVOD's five albums released during the '80s.
D'Amour died August 26, 2005 in a Montreal hospital from complications of advanced colon cancer.
Notice that on the same night the cult band from Quebec city Soothsayer will do their first concert in 17 years !! The night will be closed by none other than DBC !!

ZORDAX II : The METAL WAR
The world premiere of Zordax II : The Metal War at the Québec Vitesse Lumière festival was a great success. Zordax II shared with Allan Brown’s surrealist film Donkey Harvest the Metéore people’s choice award for the friday night official selection and also a special Metéore award for best movie starting with the letter Z.
The main actors Mike Waters, Tolga Karaer, charming actresses Cathia Deland, Arianne St-Jacques Fournier and extra Hans Gauthier (Chernobyl Cha-Cha / Tranzistor Bop) and main composer of the movie soundtrack were present at the premiere night.
Vitesse Lumière 2006 was a tremendous success and a great opportunity to party with main actor Mike Waters, actor and collaborateur Carnior who also was the festival presenter, Éric Bilodeau (SFX collaborator), Thierry Bouffard (Zordax main cameraman) and extra Simon Lacroix and host of a afterhours party for which I recall a few flashbacks.
The movie will be presented in Montreal (July) for a Vitesse Lumière special during the Fantasia festival. Check out the website for further details and screening dates.
Many thanks to the Vitesse Lumière crew and everyone who took time to check out the event!

ZORDAX II : The METAL WAR
Friday June 9 2006, World premiere of my Post Nuclear short film entitled ZORDAX II : The Metal War for the VITESSE LUMIÈRE festival at the Musée de la Civilisation – 85, Dalhousie Street, Québec,
QC, Canada.
This movie is located in a post apocalyptic future starring MIKE WATERS (the good guy), TOLGA KARAER (ZORDAX) et CHRISTO LEPOVSKY (Dr Cergume) with special guest stars Cathia Deland, Hans Gauthier
and Carnior.
Cameras were handled by Thierry Bouffard and Carnior. They gave me lots of help during shooting. The film soundtrack was produced by Hans Gauthier (Chernobyl Cha-Cha/ Tranzistor Bop), Manhattan Love Suicides and Pasquipaz who also handled
sound editing.
Costumes were furnished by Valérie Gagnon-Hamel. The outrageous laboratory machines of Dr Cergume were nicely lended by Dominique Engel. We can also see some props furnished by Painter and Scuplter
Jean Pronovost.
Éric Bilodeau who’s a reference in post production also contributed to special effects also that I was also greatly involved.
It’s from far my biggest personal project yet !
ZORDAX !
