One of the best events I went to last year was Kala Phool’s Mother India: 21st Century Remix – a live re-scoring of the Bollywood classic that blew me away. I’ve wittered on about it on my blog.
I was really pleased to hear that the musicians will be in the studio (in Birmingham) next week to record the soundtrack and Kala Phool are trying to put together a national tour for later in the year.
Kala Phool are after a film maker to make a kind of video ‘calling card’ for this. However, the bad news is there’s no budget available for the work. I must say I don’t tend to like posting these sorts of requests but I’m making an exception in this case.
If you’re still interested:
- Filming will happen on Fri/Sat 16-17 January at studios in Aston near The Drum
- They need some short interviews with the people involved and some footage of the band in the studio
- There’s plenty of footage from the live shows already
- They’re looking for something like the video of The Bays and Heritage Orchestra at the Liverpool Phil
- The finished piece will be needed by the end of January
