Neil Abramson heads north for Red Lobster



The "set"
Chelsea director Neil Abramson recently wrapped a new Red Lobster spot for Grey NY, and we had the pleasure of working a little outside of our usual turf, heading all the way up to Alaska for a scenic shoot. We thought we'd share a couple snaps of the gorgeous locations, not to mention the crew that made it possible. Thanks to the Grey team for a wonderful shoot.

New trailer: Alex Gibney's The Magic Trip



After a well-reviewed premiere at the Sundance Film Festival this past winter, Alex Gibney's documentary The Magic Trip is heading into wider release, and you can now check out the trailer, embedded above.

Along with co-director Alison Ellwood, Alex put together 16mm footage that author Ken Kesey and his Merry Band of Pranksters took on their road trip, famously chronicled by Tom Wolfe in The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. The film includes rare footage of culture figures from Timothy Leary to The Grateful Dead, much of it never before seen by audiences. The Magic Trip will be available to view on demand in July, and will hit theaters in select cities this August.
