The first full draft of the Brass In The Blood script
has been reviewed, amended, improved and fine-tuned. We have been lucky enough
to have one of the brass world’s top researchers on hand who picked through
details and made recommendations. There is still much to do, with work on the
film dialogue to be further improved across a series of workshops – perhaps
March and April.
Ahead of that, we are now in a position to progress the
first phase of interviews – on camera – with people associated with all aspects
of the brass world – musicians, composers, librarians, historians, conductors
and journalists. This will take place on Sunday 17th February. The
footage recorded will allow further research for use with the script, character
details to be used, and also as supplementary archive material to be added to
the end of the final DVD. Initially, from the interviews, we will be producing
a three/four-minute video clip to give everyone a feel for the Brass
In The Blood project. This will be posted online in early March.
Beyond mid-March, we will be in a position to take enquiries
about getting involved in the various aspects of the film’s production.
