• 11/08/08: MORE ABOUT NICE & LA VICTORINE STUDIOS (have a great Veteran Day WEEKEND!!):

GENERAL UPDATE (10/15/08):

- “At this time, regarding the fact that this project is creating a networking event, it’s necessary to stay close spiritually of my masters and inspirations, my best directors friends, on www.myspace.com/fredvidal, and first, principally, Mr. Steven Spielberg, my friend #1 on the Web, by sharing the same attitude of social professionalism and cultural proactivity.

This music video is already a film and we work on the story board with friends because music is passion and Rock is emotion and since yesterday (first publication of this article), we are receiving calls and web messages to express support and interest.

So, I decide to conceive now that project as a 15-20 minutes short including the 3 minutes videogram (like Michael jackson did for THRILLER). I publish on this blog a short communique in French to give the important detail that a part of the shooting will be produced in studio and realized with computerized 3d imagery in order not to develop the idea that The Promenade des Anglais and other Nice Streets could be stopped for shootings for too long.

BUT, WE HOPE WE WILL PRODUCE THE WHOLE THING IN FRANCE (NICE) IN ORDER TO WORK WITH LOCAL BUSINESSES (FOR SHOOTING ON LOCATION PLUS STUDIO AND 3D) AND DEVELOP TIES WITH AMERICA (HOLLYWOOD).

This MUSIC VIDEO/SHORT FILM willl be high tech and we will ask the City mayor for authorizations to shoot, just for a few days. I repeat that no dates are decided yet but it will be after the MIDEM. BRAMSTOCKER is waiting for this CLIP (French word for Music Videos) since 1978, so 30 years after we’re about to do it, that’s cool, but it’s not a super-production, just another music story on your screen, but a good one:
DOT LOVE (MY HEART) – Ascap.

Fred Vidal, PhD (10/15/08)

PS: I’m acting on the set beginning tomorrow for Hollywood and I won’t be able to reply to your messages before Monday.”

_ COMMUNIQUE LOCAL DE MODERNSCOPE INC CONCERNANT LE TOURNAGE A NICE:
Les autorisations de tournage concernant l’utilisation de la Promenade des Anglais seront demandees au Maire de Nice, Christian Estrosi, en temps utiles mais nous informons nos lecteurs que d’importants moyens informatiques seront mis en oeuvre pour developper une partie dju videoclip (decors) en images de synthese et ce, afin, de reduire le nombre de jours de tournage sur place, pour ne pas causer des problemes de circulation dans la Ville de Nice. Il s’agit d’un Video Clip comme celui qu’Elton John a produit sur la Promenade dans les annees 80 pas d’un long-metrage.

BREAKING NEWS (10/14/08):

- Fred Vidal will already personally register for the MIDEM 2009 in the next few days.
www.midem.com
POSSIBLE SHOWCASES BUT POSSIBLY NOT, DEPENDS OF THE MANAGEMENT, ‘WHERE BRAMSTOCKER PLAYS, IT’S ALWAYS HEAVEN NOT EVENT..’.
(detail: the band is also still looking for its old 24 tracks 1978 Masters for the release of a special album).

- Rumor on Twitter: www.twitter.com/fredvidal yesterday night informed that BRAMSTOCKER COULD PLAY COVERS OF THE GREAT ARTIST LEO SAYER on stage before the end of the year, in Los Angeles, with a selection of the new PLANET AMERICA repertory, only a few songs (probably Unplugged Shows in small venues, gift to the LA Facebook and MySpace band’s fans & friends). Nothing’s confirmed yet but if confirmed it will be videotaped for YouTube and probably dealt in DVDs too.

PICTURE: Abraham Stoker.

ABRAHAM STOKER, NOT A MAJOR INFLUENCE, BUT RESPECT. “This guy, great guy, Abraham Stoker, who wrote the Dracula masterpiece, has nothing to do with the band. It’s the co-founder Bass Player Christian Leblond (not in the 2000’s line-up, music retired, but great memory) who found the name that was chosen to say something like The Pistols did. It’s fun and not written the same way and in one word. But we love Sci-Fi, Fantastic, Heroic Fantasy, not really Horror and Gore. Anyway, thank you Mr. Stoker, we will promote your books, if we have the time!! Fred Vidal, Lead (10/14/08)”

ABRAHAM STOKER, NOT A MAJOR INFLUENCE, BUT RESPECT.

===MIDEM 2009 INFORMATION===

Fred Vidal, when Disc Jockey and Host Reporter, for Nice City Hall’s RADIO BAIE DES ANGES, in the 80’s, directed with the City Experimental Cable Channel CANAL 40, a Music Video for a Paris MUSIC BUSINESS female singer (research in archives to be in progress soon to find her name).

For the Direction and the Production of the first BRAMSTOCKER™ mainstream Music Video (first Contemporary art Web Music Video with the Artist Candice Johnson at: www.youtube.com/frenchcop2009), we will ask for the support of the professionals in Nice-region and the participation of the population and Top dancers, to build the fantastic universe of a Happy Town dancing and enjoying life, around the band singing the song (‘DOT LOVE (MY HEART’), to be shot in a Jacques Demy style, with bright colors, sun only and Promenade des Anglais, but not only. The band clothes will be leather, relatively long Punky hair (Rolling Stones Keith Richards Exile on Main Street style), black sunglasses but not only. There will be also a sign for A WINNING END OF THE WAR with images of JetFighters, we hope, from THE U.S. AIR FORCE and maybe the FRENCH AIR FORCE too (to be asked soon). See Fred Vidal, leadsinger involvement for the support of our troops and Law Enforcement in America Special Page on MySpace Friends Profile (Top 40, Friend #1: Tom Cruise Mapother who is forever our Legend in TOP GUNS): www.myspace.com/deafriends

“This song I did with the band at the end of a rehearsal session, It’s a 3 minutes hymn to Love and Happiness with Marshall amplified Guitars, for sure!… Thank you. Fred, leadsinger“

+ ABOUT ‘DOT LOVE (MY HEART)’ (ASCAP):
MUSIC VIDEO: also is a Homage to Elton John Music Video shot in Nice in the 80’s on the Promenade des Anglais, ‘DOT LOVE’ is an OFFSPRING kind of Punk Speed Ballad with Bon Jovi (Jon Bon Jovi, recurrent Fred’s Friend on MySpace dedicated pages: www.myspace.com/fredvidal and a lot more) Country Charisma for Inspiration. Demo won’t be shot for the upcoming BRAMSTOCKER VIDEO SITE on www.youtube.com (first demo scheduled to be diffused: COFFEE CUP), no MP3s, no previews. You have to wait for the release of the MUSIC VIDEO final cut (no date scheduled yet) on MTV and MTV2, we hope!

Reminder Dedication for the Music Video:
JACQUES DEMY, the Virtuose Filmmaker of 1960’s, and after, French Musicals.

JACQUES DEMY, THE FRENCH MASTER OF MUSICAL FILMS, INSPIRATION FOR BRAMSTOCKER 1ST MUSIC VIDEO: DOT LOVE (MY HEART), UPCOMING MIDEM 2009 SINGLE

“It will be a crazy and fantastic Video with people dancing in the streets and the band playing that hymn for Hope and Happiness in a Punk’s Pistols 1977 way, but with the magic of the U.S. of the 1990’s and 2000’s teenage American Punk bands. I thank Dexter Holland and Noodle that I am listening right now for this meeting and private concert in Paris in 2000 with the local fandom. That song ‘Dot Love (My Heart)’ (ASCAP) is dedicated to you, guys, you showed us the way to Rock again from a Continent to another!
Peace & Love… Dot! Dexter, see you Genius!!
