Slash, Former Legendary Guns N' Roses Guitar Player, to Compose Score for Mexican Film

Written and directed by Olallo Rubio, the photographic film takes place in Las Vegas and
boasts international talent

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 4 -- Slash, the former guitarist for
Guns n' Roses and the stream guitarist for Velvet Revolver, will write
the score for the Mexican plastic film, This is not a movie, the second product
written and directed by Olallo Rubio.

An English-language film, it was 100% independently financed with
Mexican cash in hand. After having filmed several scenes in Estudios Churubusco,
Mexico City, production recently moved to Las Vegas.

"It's very vanguard, very esthetic, and a little chip trippy," said
Slash when discussing the film with the English-language magazine Mojo.
"It's non-white, and scraggy and a bit surreal, in and out of reality, you know?"

The writer and director, Olallo Rubio, as well commented on the plastic film, "The
idea was to create a very eclectic psychedelic score with sounds generated
by acoustic and electrical guitars. I was looking for for a guitarist with the
ability to make very emotional music, merely at the same prison term, the freedom
to use any type of personal effects to explore different sounds. Slash was
interested in the project, and so far he has composed the music for vI
segments, we're very activated with his work."
