Macht Ridley Scott eine Springsteen Doku?

Hi -

I am contacting you because I work for Ridley Scott Associates in London, (a film production company) and a couple of years ago we made a movie called Life in a Day. It's a film made by clips that are sent in by the general public. It's available to download for free or stream on youtube in case you want to check it out.

To get straight to the point we are transforming that format to Bruce Springsteen and in particular his fans all over the world. In essence we intend to make a film of his entire career through his fans camera lenses. We are looking to draw up a picture of the artist via what he means to them, and how their life has been affected by him or his music. We are primarily after video responses- but interpret it in any way you like- a series of photographs with narration, a filmed story of how Bruce has come into your life or even interaction with the man himself.

Good examples would be... the Ullevi in Gothenburg- when Bruce literally broke the stadium foundations by the crowd stamping on the floor, the Australian woman who killed her husband for not allowing her to listen to Bruce (!) or the countless weddings and births that Bruce has pulled together!

The first step is our "call to action" and this we will do by making 3-4 films ourselves to demonstrate in the simplest term, by example, what the project is about. And we invite everyone to take part and be a participant in the film. Therefore we are looking for 3-4 people right now that we can engage with to make these tester clips. Do you know of anyone that has a great story to tell of what Bruce means to them? Or how Bruce or his music has effected their lives or the lives of their loved ones? Any charismatic characters or groups of people that have interesting, emotional or even funny stories to tell? Would you be interested in maybe telling your 2nd child story for the camera? It can be as short and sweet as you like, shot on an iPhone or 35mm!

Its a tremendously complicated task but as we've done this before we believe we have the tools to make it work. Its laden with problems and complications but the end result could potentially be stunning.

We have the full blessing and endorsement of the man himself and his management and are actively collaborating with his team on this as well as getting lots of help from Chris at Backstreets who I'm sure you know!

I hope I have explained myself properly and do get in touch with any questions you might have. I look forward to speaking with you further!

All the best

Wow! Klingt klasse. Da gäbe es sicher Geschichten ohne Ende zu erzählen. Mit "Life in a Day" ist es dann wohl nicht getan :lol:

Und da hat echt eine Australierin ihren Mann umgebracht? :shock:

Es gibt Neuigkeiten...grade auf BS.net gelesen...das Projekt wird "Springsteen & I" heißen und geplant ist ein Kinostart in 2013!!

Hier der offizielle Text der Internetseite BruceSpringsteen.net:

"Be a part of the new film ‘Springsteen & I’

Ridley Scott Associates, Black Dog Films and Scott Free London, the team behind a new feature documentary entitled Springsteen & I, are calling on fans worldwide to make their own film about Bruce and what he means to them. Inspired by Scott Free’s award-winning Life In A Day, the producers are now looking for fans’ most personal insights, abstractions and reflections on how Bruce Springsteen and his music has affected their lives.

Directed by Baillie Walsh, Springsteen & I is an open invitation to people all over the world to share stories that celebrate one of the greatest lyrical storytellers of our generation.

“We encourage you to be part of this unique cinematic experience by either submitting a clip or getting in touch with us via email or phone,” says the film’s producer Svana Gisla. “We are searching for a wide variety of creative interpretations, captured in the most visually exciting way you can think of, whether you’ve been a hardcore Tramp since ’73 or have heard one of his songs for the first time today! If you have a parent, a sibling, a neighbor or a colleague who has an interesting tale, we want to know about them. If you can’t use a camera or are not sure how to capture your story then get in touch and we will link you up with someone who can!”

Springsteen & I is the ultimate collective filmmaking experience – for the people and by the people, which will culminate in a unique feature music documentary set to be released in cinemas across the world in 2013.

The production team will edit the footage to feature length and are therefore requesting that submissions be raw footage rather than edited material. As well as moving image accounts on camera, the filmmakers are looking for fans to provide photographs, old footage or audio narration to help them build up a picture of what the acclaimed songwriter and musician means to them.

Movie and image files will be able to be quickly uploaded through the film’s website springsteenandi.com by following simple online instructions. Ideally, the higher quality the footage the better, but the producers stress that any equipment, from smartphones to hi-def cameras are accepted – as long as they are all under 5 minutes in length. Anything longer and participants will need to contact the production team to agree on delivery methods.

Springsteen & I will accept submissions from 12:00 am GMT on November 15, 2012 through 12:00 am GMT on November 29, 2012 at springsteenandi.com, so start telling your story "

- Fantastisch!!
