Chop Shop @ New Moon Premiere
Tuesday, November 17th, 2009
Last night, the Chop Shop crew was in attendance for the much anticipated The Twilight Saga: New Moon movie premiere. While the worldwide release of the film is just days away, we have a first look from the folks responsible for the fantastic music featured in the film and on the soundtrack.
Here are a few photos and highlights from last nights festivities:
Volturi Eyes
Alex: “So great to see (and hear) all of the fans from our arriving car. It was sad to disappoint them with Team Chop Shop rather than Edward or Jacob. I loved working on this movie and enjoyed watching the finished film. Yea Chris Weitz!”
John: “The cast of New Moon was so humble and were very gracious towards their fans. I was totally impressed. Weird seeing mohawk guy and wheel chair guy from Glee there. Even weirder was seeing 50 Cent and Richie Sambora. My highlight was seeing Larry David at the after party. It was surreal, like I was in an episode of Curb or something. Another highlight was getting to the theater and having Jennifer Love Hewitt ask if I know Anya and then proceeding to tell me how amazing she is.”
Kasey: “Limo. Red Carpet. Anya Marina Reporting Live. NEW MOON SCREENING! Music via CHOP SHOP! Hammer Museum After Party. Red Robed Servers. Real Live Wolves. Amazing Night.”
Brittany: “I loved walking into the Hammer museum, grabbing a highly anticipated glass of wine, and turning around only to see two of the most beautiful wolves right behind me. The whole event was absolutely stunning and completely unforgettable.”
Ginger: “I would have to say one of my highlights was getting out of the car and onto the red carpet and being immersed into the New Moon frenzy. I really felt the impact of the film at that moment”
Also, soundtrack artist Anya Marina co-hosted the MySpace New Moon Premiere red carpet show last night and did a fantastic job! You can see some footage from the broadcast below.

Monday, October 12th, 2009Who We Are + : Ginger
Tuesday, October 6th, 2009
The Edison is reminiscent of what I would’ve imagined the Cocoanut Grove was like at the Ambassador Hotel back in the 20’s and 30’s. I’ve always wanted to go to a place that could capture old Hollywood where you can sit at a small round table and watch a flashy jazz orchestra or cabaret show and drink absinth in a tiny aperitif glass around some classy people. This place will transport you, which is sometimes nice after going to Cabo Cantina for happy hour, just sayin.

SONG OF THE DAY: Ginger
Thursday, July 30th, 2009
Finishing out the trifecta of Music Coordinators at Chop Shop is the lovely and talented Ginger Whitman. She is the one that keeps this train rolling, making sure that all the details and contracts are put together, on time, and sent to the right people. She’s always good for a few laughs and can lighten the stressful vibe that sometimes creeps into our little office.
Ginger’s pick for Song of the Day is:
“Blood” by Band of Skulls
It reminds her of P.J. Harvey, whom she LOVES!
Enjoy.
