Independent Film Project
On November 16, 2011 it was announced that pre-production had begun on an independently produced adaptation of Music from "The Elder". British author/musician Seb Hunter said that he was beginning to write a screenplay based upon Gene Simmons’ original concept and is producing the film himself alongside friend and colleague Owen Oakeshott. To finance the film, Hunter has asked for donations through The Elder official site. It is approximated that the overall budget for the film will be £30,000. Mentorn Media have also begun work on a documentary titled, Exhuming "The Elder" which follows the independent filmmakers behind the scenes as they attempt to bring The Elder concept to fruition.

Famous quotes containing the words independent, film and/or project:
“The ability to secure an independent livelihood and honorable employ suited to her education and capacities is the only true foundation of the social elevation of woman, even in the very highest classes of society. While she continues to be educated only to be somebody’s wife, and is left without any aim in life till that somebody either in love, or in pity, or in selfish regard at last grants her the opportunity, she can never be truly independent.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
“If you want to tell the untold stories, if you want to give voice to the voiceless, you’ve got to find a language. Which goes for film as well as prose, for documentary as well as autobiography. Use the wrong language, and you’re dumb and blind.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1948)
“The candidate tells us we are the “backbone of the State,” and we know that it is true, not because we are possessed of certain endowed virtues, but because we are a majority and have the vote.”
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
