Alan Wake is a psychological action thriller and an XBox360 game developed by Remedy and published by Microsoft Game Studios. Over 70 minutes of cinematic scenes were produced into the game.
The LG Splash was a special treat in the ocean of commercials. The film is entirely CG except for the NYC skyline and the swimmer as live action plates.
When Stobe was tied to a director's chair at Remedy, it was impossible to do a video for the band he loves. He still wanted to do something for their latest album.
This is the cover art for Poets of the Fall's fourth album, Twilight Theater.
Right here where a million things could be said, I can only say a few. I rather let some of the most talented people I know do the talking.
Cheers. Stobe Harju
“Stobe is a fantastic storyteller with an overwhelming sense of visions beautiful, surreal and magical. And you haven't seen the best of him yet...”
Tuomas Holopainen Nightwish
“Stobe Harju is a brilliant director. For an actor, working with Stobe is a sheer treat, because he truly understands and appreciates the craft of acting and really knows how to communicate his ideas. In addition Stobe is a wonderful, warm hearted person with a great sense of humour. I could not possibly wish for more – except to get to work with Stobe Harju in many projects to come.”
Ilkka Villi Lead actor, Alan Wake
“Stobe Harju is both an artist and a professional. I'd trust any story of mine into his care, knowing that he'll treat it with respect and bring it to life in ways I could never even have imagined.”
Sam Lake Writer (Max Payne, Max Payne 2, Alan Wake) Remedy
“Stobe is a twister of raw talent and unshackled vision, working with him is like playing the lottery, knowing you're going to win”
Marko Saaresto Poets of the Fall
“If he ever makes a movie, I really, really, really want to score that”
Petri Alanko Musical score composer, Alan Wake
