Weather Report is about more than music; it is about the way you conduct your life, it’s about the fine art of listening and sharing. So, as we begin production of the documentary we want to bring you, our most appreciative and generous fans, with us to share the journey.
If you have any Weather Report memorabilia that you’ve collected through the years, we want to include it in our film and the accompanying book.
We are looking for anything that you have that documents your love for Weather Report. Whether it’s a picture you took while the band was on stage, a ticket stub from one of their many concerts, or even a signed poster from one of their tours. Anything you have that you want to share – maybe even a personal anecdote – please send it to us.
– Scan or provide a picture of your memorabilia, in the highest quality possible. 600dpi is the minimum quality resolution we will need.
– Email us your picture or scan to info@thisisthisfilm.com, include your full name, and information on your memorabilia. i.e. dates, location, etc. The more information, the better.
If we decide on using your stuff, you will receive full credit for your material.
THANK YOU FANS!
As we wrapped up our day doing test shoots with members from the Zawinul Legacy Band, we were able to catch a little conversation between bassist Hadrien Feraud and writer Ken Kubernik. Watch and hear what they had to say about Weather Report.
When we first started this documentary project for Weather Report, we wanted to title it ‘Calm Before The Storm’, we felt it was a fitting title for the movie, but after some consideration we have decided to change the title of the film to ‘This Is This: The Incredible Jazz Journey of Weather Report.’
