This is awesome. Subterranea is one of my favourite IQ albums.

(From IQ-HQ.co.uk)


"06.August.12

Subterranea movie Kickstarter campaign


Birdman films (the company producing the Subterranea movie based on IQ's classic concept album) have launched a Kickstarter fundraising campaign. Anyone with an interest in the band or the movie is able to pledge an amount to help ensure the film gets the funding it needs. 

There's a range of incentives for all 'would be Angels' including posters, t-shirts, special editions of the DVD/BluRay, credits in the film, walk on parts - all the way up to full executive producer status.

Mat Miller, Director: "Every penny we get will go directly onto the screen - the more funds we raise, the bigger and better the film will be in the end. So please, donate to the film, tell your friends and lets bring this inspiring and special story to life!"

If you've ever fancied yourself as a movie mogul, take a look at the project page: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/812444518/subterranea-feature-length-film."


At the time of writing they have about $5,500 pledged out of $30,000, with 20 days to go. I've only just graduated but when I get a job I may well even pledge a small amount, because this might actually be pretty cool. At the very least some of the perks indicate that we are getting new IQ music out of this, written for the score.

Hi there,
it is almost done! The Kickstarter-campaign for the movie is almost finished and it looks quite good. Mat just needs around 4000 dollar to realize this amazing project. So if you havenīt pledged yet, just have a look at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/812444518/subterranea-feature-length-film and support this amazing project!
Itīs a small step for man, but a giant leap for progkind!
Cheers, Peter

Only 51 hours to go, so I'm not confident they'll make it.  But I did pledge, so...!

I donated $25. I'll hype it on facebook but I don't have a ton of friends who know about the album or the band.

BREAKING NEWS!


http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/812444518/subterranea-feature-length-film

Funding was achieved in the nick of time, with just 9 hours to spare. The project raised $32,000 in total (so $2,000 extra!) with a total of 199 backers.

I can't tell you how excited I am about this, IQ are one of my favourite bands and Subterranea is an absolute masterpiece. Here's to an exciting new chapter in the band's career (and new music for the film!)
