UPDATE: “MUSIK” IS COMPLETE!   

“Musik” (2010) has now been completed. It’s been an incredible journey that started around September 2008 with an initial idea. We were then set to shoot in January 2009, but due to unforseeable complications, we eventually set sail at the end of July 2009. When the re-shoots were taking place, conflicing of working schedules with cast and crew meant it became difficult to get everyone together, thus taking us past Christmas and into the New Year. We had the pleasure of working with an amazing cast, and an amazing crew.  We also had the extreme pleasure of working with some of the top people who have enabled us to obtain the large house used in the film, Pinewood Studios, Vauxhall Insignia, Aston Martin V8 Vantage, the several saxophones used in the film, the school location plus many others who have gone out of their way to help us make this film. The picture below represents all the layers of video and sound used for the film “Musik” from start to end. We have used 18 hours of Tape, 18 days filming, 243gb of video, and a 318gb “Musik” folder.

 

UPDATE: “MUSIK” LISTED ON IMDb   

“Musik (2010) (V)” has now officially been given its merit by being listed on the prestigious Internet Movie Database (IMDb). www.imdb.com/title/tt1599336/

As of this moment, we have 2 days of filming remaining, followed by the recording of the music on Monday 8th March. We expect to see a rough cut circa 15th March. After the principal crew approve the edit (or not) we will (make necessary changes) and start going to duplication for its distribution. A BIG thank you to all who got involved.
