Posted project update #36EAST COAST PREMIERE!!!
Hi everyone! I can now "officially" announce that my film will have its east coast premiere at the Museum of Modern Art in New York as the centerpiece film of the Documentary Fortnight Series. How cool is that??? I can't think of a better place for Storm's work to be shown. It's from all your help that the film is getting out there and if anyone who supported the film wants to come, email me and I'll try and swing tickets (though my list is already getting long!).
Hoping that this screening will give the film a big push along to its distribution life - more screenings, perhaps theatrical release and dvds, streaming, etc. There are some companies who have made offers and others lurking around so maybe this will get them actually to decide how great a film it is and that it needs to get out into the world asap.
Hope everyone had great holidays and the best in new years...Mine is starting off pretty good!
All best, Roddy

commented on a projectHi Tim, Thanks for message. Have been totally swamped since March believe it or not and hadn't checked my page for awhile. Film got great press and response in Austin and I've been taking meeting after meeting with distributors, dvd companies, as well as heading into last edit session (yes, there are a few changes I want to make from viewing it with large audiences). I can say I had some really great meetings with a few companies and am getting closer to possibly signing a deal to get the film out theatrically as well as dvd release and digital release. Some funding has come through recently to go back and re-transfer the 16mm to HD so the film is going to look great (though it looked fantastic on huge screens in Austin). If you're on Facebook, there's a fan page I created (Taken By Storm) which I have been posting more updates and bits of outtakes from the film so please join and forward to friends. Storm in good form and just completed loads of new covers (Rival Sons, Wombats, Younger Brother) as well as all new stuff for the blitzkreig of Pink Floyd vinyl and box sets due for release soon. Will keep posting news and please spread the word. Looks like things are speeding up finally... Hope summer is going well for everyone. All best, Roddy
