Hi all, I am currently making a documentary movie about the Surfing Subculture of New York City. yes, I said NYC. lol!Â*Â*Theres a Film festival Ive actually been invited to and the dead lines are in August. Thats not that far away and I need music for this feature. I am an amatuer film maker but got alot of recognition from the 1rst movie I made called "Etched In Sections". It was just a fun way I thought being a ex-musician to meet other bands in NYC. I started it as a hobby & it blew up into an international request. I never excepted any money for the movie & have given about 1000 copies away to this date. This new movie is basically an extended version, like a feature length movie. People are willing to sponsor the next movie and help out to get it made & ready to go to the Film Festivals. Thats awsome considering I didnt really think I would be that into movie making but here I am on my 2nd movie. This Time I have to do it legit to get this into the fests.
Heres the rundown on what I have going on. I do not have any budget what so ever, I do this all out of my pocket so I cannot pay bands for any royalties. What I offer is advertising. The trailer alone has generated enough emails about th song writers music, I have actually had to look into a service of sorts to send out a response. What I will do for any band I choose for any scene is to make it clearly marked with a blurb with the name of the band and Song title over the scene its being used in and again in the Rolling Credits except with full name, and all contact Information for the band in the event someone likes what tey hear & want to buy your cd's or sign you to a label. Who knows what could happen. Either way, I get some great bands with out dealing with record labels crap & I can get this movie done by August for submission to both the New York Surfing Film fest and also The Zetgeist Film fest in Cali.
What Im looking for.
Im prety much looking for unsigned musicians and almost any music style but some Emo-Core would def help alot, punk, Metal, hardcore anything creative & anything thats uptempo & rips. I do have Bad Religion on board and thats the only signed band who gave me permission to use any music besides a few friends from when I used to play back in the day. Heres the trailer, its a mellow & slow paced look at some people but its to fool you into thinking this is california but its not & Queens NYC. The rest will be very uptempo, full of surfing & partying & whatever goes on arund NYC as it is here.

I will forward you a standard release form that must be submited signed with any music submission. I usually wouldnt care but the Film Fest requires me to have these or I wont be able to use your band in the movie with out it. Please get back to me ASAP, August is too close for a movie production so I need content quickly. Let me know ASAP.
Thanks,
Psycho
