WHAT BRUCE MEANS TO YOU: ‘SPRINGSTEEN & Iʼ FILM CALLS TO FANS FOR FILMED FOOTAGE

 

Bruce Springsteen film inspired by Life In A Day launches –

accepting submissions at www.springsteenandi.com

Ridley Scott Associates, Black Dog Films and Scott Free London, the team behind a
new feature documentary entitled SPRINGSTEEN & I, are calling on all Springsteen
fans 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
www.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.

The producers are Ridley Scott Associates and Black Dog Films.  Liza Marshall and
Jack Arbuthnott, the Scott Free producers behind LIFE IN A DAY will Executive
Producer.

AUSTRALIAN FANS ARE ENCOURAGED TO ENTER.  FOOTAGE CAN BE UPLOADED TO
