- Synopsis:
"Oddsac" is a feature film collaboration between the band Animal Collective and filmmaker Danny Perez, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in early 2010 and has screened to sold-out audiences in dozens of US cities. The film was co- conceived by and stars Animal Collective, whose 2009 album Merriweather Post Pavilion was named album of the year by SPIN, Entertainment Weekly, and Pitchfork, and topped critic s end of year lists worldwide. 'Oddsac' is a dense and surreal layering of audio and visual elements that eschews conventional narrative to create a visceral viewing experience. 'Oddsac' represents a new synthesis of music and film, a visual album whose songs will not be released in any other form. It features an original score with new songs from the band and complex digital manipulation by Perez, a debut filmmaker and visual artist known for his concert projections with musicians such as Black Dice and Panda Bear. Perez and Animal Collective have also collaborated on two music videos (Who Could Win A Rabbit and Summertime Clothes), and a major art installation piece Transverse Temporal Gyrus, which occupied the entire Guggenheim Museum in New York City. 'Oddsac' is the result of over four years of intense collaboration between Perez and the band. - Actors:
