From The Glamour & The Squalor! An announcement we’d like to make exclusive to our Kickstarter backers (you’ll see a more formal announcement down the road) is that Pearl Jam’s Mike McCready, one of the best guitar players in the history of rock, will be scoring the film. We’re so honored that Mike is a part of the team and so excited for what is sure to be a beautifully composed score!

Project Update #20: Update!



Hello Kickstarter!

We realize it’s been a little quiet on our end and can imagine you must be getting a little antsy to see the film. You’re telling us! We continue to pour our hearts into making The Glamour & The Squalor the best it can possibly be. This film deserves to be special…for Marco, for you, for all of us. We’re committed to making it great and not compromising the quality just to get it released.

The more it comes together the more we realize what we have and that it has a chance to be a rare and important story. The film continues to get better every single day. With so much accumulated footage and the numerous layers of storytelling that exist in our narrative, we continue to be patient and smart while constructing the story. On each pass, we challenge ourselves to take it up a notch. We can promise it will be worth the wait.

The terrific documentary filmmaker Lucy Walker (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1013671/) may have put it best when discussing her fullproof editing process: “1. Index cards. 2. Edit. 3. Screen. 4. Feedback. 5. Break. Repeating that sequence over and over and over and over again is the process for taking films from terrible to good to great to excellent to phenomenal.” Phenomenal, of course, is what we’re working towards.

There are some very exciting things happening behind the scenes that we can’t wait to share as soon as we’re able.



Things we can share: Last week we put the finishing touches on the beautiful score by Composer and Pearl Jam guitarist McCready…

…and our animation is scheduled to be complete by this Friday.

Thanks to you all for your patience and continued support of this project. We’re moving forward every day and really proud of what we’ve created. We truly can’t wait for the day we get to share it will all of you.

Sincerely,

Mark Evans
Director

An Update on Our Progress

Hello Kickstarter Friends,

It’s been a while since we’ve updated you on the progress of The Glamour & The Squalor so we wanted to take this opportunity to let you know where we’re at with the film.

We’re currently working through the second rough cut of the movie and we’re feeling so great about it. About 45 days ago we had a first rough cut that we sent out to many people in the film and music industries for notes. We were fortunate to have the cut viewed by many amazing artists that we respect immensely and the feedback provided has taken the film to new heights.

Although the consensus was overwhelmingly positive and confirmed we have something special, clear opportunities to improve the film were uncovered. We’ve spent the last month taking these suggestions into consideration in a continued effort to make this film everything it deserves to be.

A major addition to the film is building out Marco’s contemporary story as he reinvents himself in a music industry that is changing by the second. In order to capture this storyline in as cinematic way as possible, we’ve undertook an additional production slate to follow him along in this journey. We’ll be capping this off by filming his “TAG 2.0” show on August 21st at Chop Suey. (You can purchase tickets here for not only a great concert but also an opportunity to be in the film http://www.strangertickets.com/events/16493810/tag-20-a-marco-collins-experiment).

With the latest developments in mind, we now expect the film to be released in 2015. Our goal is still to premier the film at a major film festival and the submission deadlines for these festivals are months in advance. We’re planning on 5 weeks of editing after the August shoot, then an additional month worth of sound mixing and color correction. At that point, we should be ready to submit the film to festivals for the early 2015 circuit.

We know how anxious you all are to see the movie. We can feel it and share that excitement and thank you all so much for the continued support. We wish we were writing this update to share with you the date of our premier, but there’s still more work to be done and we’re committed to giving you nothing less than an amazing film.

Please feel free to reach out any time if you’d like to chat about the film. Thank you for being the rock stars you are.

Sincerely,

Mark Evans,
Director of The Glamour & The Squalor.

Big Announcements are Coming!

Hello friends & fans,

It’s been a while since we’ve posted an update here. The team has been heads down working on finishing the film so we can share it with you all. It’s been a long and emotional haul, and we wouldn’t have been able to do it without your support throughout. We’re happy to say that we are putting some finishing touches on the film and will be premiering this year. We're not allowed to divulge any dates or events yet, but expect to rock out with us this summer!

Until then, we leave you with this exclusive bonus scene that didn’t quite make it into the film:

Really love the music that's being played in the background. Air - Alone In Kyoto

Sweet. This doc looks really good.
I remember 107.7 The End starting up. It was a really big deal up in the Vancouver area, because we had nothing like it at the time, everyone wanted it, but it was SO hard to get the signal! When we actually managed to get it on the car radio it was a story for our friends, lol. It was like we were proud that our radio actually picked up The End.

I worked at The End in a couple of different capacities in the very early and late 2000's. Growing up as a teenager in the 90's in Seattle, it was the standard bearer for music. Marco was a massive part of that. Once he moved on they lost some of the magic and the station wasn't quite the same. Still tune in from time to time, but back during his run there, that station was a beacon.

Friends & Fans,

The time we've all been waiting for has finally arrived. We are thrilled to announce that The Glamour & The Squalor will have its World Premier on June 3, 2015 at the Seattle International Film Festival!

This film is 2.5 years in the making and it is safe to say it wouldn't have been completed without the amazing support group that each of you represent. The process was filled with ups and downs (and the occasional screaming match) but the excitement and passion you all showed about the movie always kept us going.

We couldn't be more excited to first share this film with our friends in Seattle. We flirted with other festivals, but it just wouldn't have been right to premier anywhere else. Please join us on Wednesday, June 3, at 7:00 at the Egyptian Theatre and celebrate with us immediately following the Q&A at Neumos for a live concert with great local bands and special guests. Tickets can be purchased by clicking the link below.

Please help us share the news on your social media and include ‪#‎tgtsfilm‬.

We hope to see every single one of you there as we sell-out both venues! Thank you for backing us and we can't wait for you to see this film.

Sincerely,

The Glamour & The Squalor crew
