A new Melbourne based AV production company is looking at making a new series for cable on contemporary Jazz artists based in Melbourne. We are looking for expressions of interest from artists who either compose their own material or write their own arrangements and also use improvisation
As there is usually little proft if any, from this kind of venture at this stage we can not gurantee a fee unless we get some major funding, however, whatever the case if the project gets past the pilot stage we will split any profits with artists, who will also own joint copyright and will have professionally shot audio and vision for DVDs for their own use.
To register your interest please email Vicki Horne Bonet at vhorne@bigpond.net.au with a link to your website if you have one. Please do NOT send attachments with your email at this stage.

Forgot to mention artists from ANYWHERE in Australia will be welcome too but they need to physically be in Melbourne for the filming. We don't know where we'll be filming yet but possibly at more than one location. Early, early days. Also thanks for the emails so far - we'll be in touch if you know improvising musicians who could be interested, please pass on my email details to them. We already have a band for the pilot but in order to propose a series to networks we need confirmed details for whom we will be filming if the project goes ahead. We are planning to get this series on cable around Asia too which would help with touring I guess.
thanks

No Clint, you can not play piano with your kid!
Seriously, just to update everyone on this.
We are finalising participants in the next fortnight.
The production will now feature original music ONLY by Oz based improvising musicians. Too many bands wanted to do standards - sorry folks!
We will be filming in Melbourne over a 48 hour period probably within the next 5 months.
Please let your pals know too if they fit the bill
We have had quite a few expressions of interest but we still would like a few more. So if you write your own music, improvise and would like a finished professional DVD and to be part of this TV series please contact me at:
vhorne@bigpond.net.au
If you have already expressed your interest I do have your details, so please be patient. TV takes ages.
