Andre Pesch / The Days After - ZS Media Services

When Phil Rice saw a pre-release screening of Andre Pesch’s short machinima film, “The Days After,” he expressed a concern about the film’s use of copyrighted music and how that might hurt the film’s chances for wider exposure. On the strength of a referral from the film’s lead voice actor, Ricky Grove, Andre agreed to let Phil offer up an original score for the film’s final release.  “The Days After” went on to receive critical acclaim and won the Bitfilm Festival Machinima Award in 2006.
