An ageing recluse, once a rock star, gives an interview with a young music journalist.
The film is inspired by the mythology surrounding Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd fame, and drummer Ginger Baker. But I believe that 'Echoes' is something quite original. Here is the script: docdro.id/uVj4BI6
I'm the writer, and will be serving as director and editor. I have a cinematographer, who has worked on some big-name music videos for bands such as Years And Years; and a sound recordist/mixer, who has worked on films such as 'Rush' and 'Paddington' and 'Lady in the Van' and Paolo Sorrentino's fantastic 'Youth' (starring Michael Caine and Paul Dano).
Basically I need a capable producer to help focus my efforts and guide me with a 10-minute short film I'm making. The film is inspired by the mythology surrounding Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd fame, and drummer Ginger Baker. But I believe that 'Echoes' is something quite original. Here is the script: docdro.id/uVj4BI6
Unfortunately I will not be able to pay people at this stage, as there isn't the budget, but so far people seem to like/love the script enough to want to do it as a "passion project".
The only thing I can promise is that if the film should win any cash prizes/awards, everyone involved will receive a cut in perpetuity.
We should be shooting in the next 30 days, as I'm aiming to have production done before the start of April. It will be a 2-day shoot, 3 tops. It will most likely be London-based, but could also potentially be somewhere between West Sussex and London, so people with easy access to those areas are preferable.
