Frightened Rabbit Ask For Fan Videos And Photos For New Documentary
Frightened Rabbit have put a call out for photos and videos from fans to be used in an upcoming documentary about the band.
A post on the band’s official Instagram account reads: “In 2017 we were approached by filmmaker William Miller about making a documentary about Frightened Rabbit, and specifically The Midnight Organ Fight, with the plan of releasing something during the ten year anniversary celebrations in 2018. Obviously this plan didn’t work out and we put almost everything on hold whilst we coped with the loss of Scott and in a lot of ways the end of FR. We never fully gave up on the idea of getting this film made and thankfully neither did the team involved in making it – so this year we picked those conversations back up and are in the process of making this film a reality.
“As with most things we try to do, we want this story to be told from as many perspectives as possible and are keen to create something that feels like it’s from the FR community as much as it is for it. So we are asking you to share your cherished videos and photos with us to create something truly special together. It doesn’t matter if it’s a live performance, a meet and greet, a heartfelt fan tribute, or simply a snapshot of a memorable Frightened Rabbit experience. We want to see FR through your eyes, or your crap Nokia phone lens (you know who you are).
“Your footage will possibly be featured in the documentary film that we hope will highlight the connections we’ve all had over the years. We want this to be a real, honest and true representation of the band over the years and that couldn’t happen without input from the people who were the biggest part of making FR what it is today.
Here’s how you can contribute:
– Dust off those photo albums and scour your digital archives for any visual gems -photographs, videos, and anything that captures the magic of Frightened Rabbit and specifically The Midnight Organ Fight era.
– Send an email to FRABBITFILM@GMAIL.COM with all the details regarding the footage and we will send back instructions to upload.
– Your name
– Location and date of the footage or photo
– A brief description of the moment or any personal anecdotes associated with it
– In the subject line please include: “Frightened Rabbit Fan Material.”
“By submitting your material, you agree to potentially have it included in the documentary. Don’t worry, proper credit will be given where it’s due,” the band reassured fans in a separate comment. “Spread the word among the Frightened Rabbit community, and let us create a movie of memories that will honor the enduring legacy of Scott and Frightened Rabbit and what both those things mean to people now and then.”
