SUNDANCE SUCCESS

Photobucket

This week the president and founder of Costa Coummunications, Ray Costa, travels to Sundance with Emmy nominated composer Christopher Lennertz and the winner of "Best New Composer" at the Hollywood Music Awards, Austin Wintory.

Composer Christopher Lennertz scores Adam, the romantic dramedy, directed and written by Max Mayer (BETTER LIVING). The film is a unique love story about a young man named Adam who is affected by Asperger’s, (a high functioning form of autism). Adam made its debut as part of the U.S. Dramatic Competition at Sundance and was purchased by Fox Searchlight. Congratulations to everyone who worked on the film!

Composer Austin Wintory returned to Sundance with his score for the psychological thriller Grace, the feature film debut of writer/director Paul Solet. Wintory is currently receiving critical acclaim for his score to Captain Abu Raed, which won the Audience Award at Sundance last year. Grace debuted as part of the Park City at Midnight series at Sundance.

We are honored to be working with these two talented composers.
