Steven Poster and Dave Cole work together again on Spread
Spread is one of three movies on which Poster has worked with LaserPacific's senior colorist Dave Cole, the others being Southland Tales and The Box, both directed by acclaimed independent director Richard Kelly. Dave and Steven will also be working together shortly on Cats and Dogs 2: The Revenge of Kitty Galore. Steven Poster describes the benefit of working with Dave Cole, "I'm always one to walk on an edge and push the technology a little further than it should be so to have the back up of saying 'Dave, what do you think?' is an extraordinary tool for any DP to have." Spread premiered at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival in January and will be released by Anchor Bay Entertainment on August 14th 2009.
