"The Synthesist" merges intelligent sci-fi with thrilling  suspense ( -as the film's lead is thrust into a dark govern-ment-ET conspiracy threatening Earth ). 

But that's just 

PART of the story... 

See: "Story within      a Story" ( -below ).               ( -ABOVE  )  "SYNTHESIST" -The Movie.

"The Synthesist" is the first movie to expose audiences to the work-a-day world of a freelance synthesist/ sound designer. It's ALSO the first film to unveil a revolutionary new Indie film making tool and equally amazing construction breakthrough most people have never seen before!                                                                                                                   

The picture will be the first to show audiences what it's like to live in this innovative home. The film's        lead character actually uses      the home's high-tech design          to resolve the film's main

story conflict.                                                                                                          ( -ABOVE  ) COOL  PARK  HOME  INTERIOR.

We haven't yet decided upon the type of home this will be. We're considering        ( -disaster-resilient ) dome homes, prefab homes, EPS/ shotcrete homes and even composite-material building systems. The company we  select will receive years of attention-grabbing screen publicity as movie audiences   ( -ABOVE )  A  FUTURISTIC  PREFAB  DESIGN worldwide enjoy the film throughout it's DVD distribution life. 

Drop us an e-mail on our "Contact"  page. Let us know which type of home you think our "Synthesist" should live in. Tell us WHY you think that style seems right and should be used as the film's primary

interior setting throughout

the course of the movie .

Beyond the film's intriguing sci-fi  storyline, "The Synthesist" is a story of rebirth and starting over.  After losing his home/ project studio to a violent storm, the synthesist vows to "never let that happen again!".                                                                                   ( -ABOVE  )  A NEW START                                                                                    He learns of a new high tech housing solution -and with the help of his sister, is able to re-construct his home/ studio in a new town ( -with the home's re-construction chronicled via a series of "flash backs" ). Movie audiences will learn of this innovative building solution via these film "flashbacks" and through a "Making Of" feature included on the DVD.. 

The sound "patch" the synthesist discovers is buried in crosstalk. Thinking the interference is the result of "bleed through" from normal communications channels in the area, he continues tweaking in hopes the crosstalk will subside. To his dismay, it only worsens. That is, until he adjusts one last knob!        ( -ABOVE )  "BREAKING  THROUGH"

Despite it's modest production budget, "The Synthesist" employs a plethora of innovative visual special-effects.

This "interstellar Tunnel" effect is used when the Synthesist traverses "space and time" via    the crystal's matrix. 

"Tools of the trade". A bedroom project-studio like the one "The Synthesist" will be filmed in. Pictured are PAIA's vintage "Gnome", Behringer's "Pro-1" and "CAT" synths, ( 2 ) x Korg "Volca Bass" modules, Roland's JU-06A and SH-01A "Boutique" synths. WHICH synth do you think we should use?                                         ( -ABOVE )  "SYNTHESIST'S" STUDIO 

The transmissions are of extraterrestrial origin and an alien invasion is imminent! Worse yet, it appears high-placed government officials are aiding and abetting the aliens in their takeover bid. ( -continued below )  

                                                                                                 The "Desert Planet"

Summoning all of his courage, "synth smarts"

and out-of-the box thinking, the resourceful synthesist devises a plan to foil the invasion ( -all while bringing in his latest sound design job on-time and on-budget ) to the surprise of his difficult employer and demanding TV commercial client! ( -END ).

Modern film has a fine tradition      of taking the "ordinary man"

-doing his everyday job -and  thrusting him into extraordinary circumstances that force him to  "go beyond" what he thought he was capable of. "The Synthesist" continues this film tradition by giving viewers a unique glimpse into the world of a freelance synthesist / sound-designer.

RELUCTANT HERO IN ( 1980's ) "BLOW-OUT" 

In "Blow-Out" sound-effects man Jack Terry inadvertently captures a political assassination on tape, then has to decide what to do with the incriminating evidence ( -before a hIred assassin kills HIM! ). 

In Antionelli's ( 1968 ) thriller "Blow-up", a fashion photog's casual park photos accident-ally capture a murder on film. The photographer -played by British actor David Hemmings, eventually comes to the stark realization his impromptu pix may hold the key to solving a          ( -ABOVE )  ANTIONELLI's "BLOW-UP" 

murder. Once again, "common man" unwillingly thrust into extraordinary circumstances he must "make right". The same predicament shared by our synthesist. And the tradition continues. Only with sawtooth and sine waves pulsing in the movie's background sound score...

                       "TINY SYNTHS, MIGHTY SOUNDS DOCUMENTARY" 

We're looking for a truly unique and innovative synth to feature in our movie. It will serve as both story prop and "eye-candy" ( -as well as provide much of the film's SFX and music ). A tall order! 

Behringer's ( new ) VCS3 clone seems a good choice. It certainly has the fetching onscreen looks we're looking for. Tell us what YOU think! Should the VCS3 get the part or do you think another synth deserves this                                                                                                  "starring role"?                                          ( -ABOVE )  BEHRINGER'S VCS3

"Life doesn't get any better    than a plate full of "warm from the oven" Tollhouse chocolate-chip cookies, a glass of milk and your synthesizer's oscillators warming up for a late night recording session".
