Died Young Stayed Pretty – a documentary about indie rock posters
Died Young Stayed Pretty looks like an interesting film about the mysterious rise and fall and rise of the indie rock poster scene. Directed by Canadian filmmaker, Eileen Yaghoobian:
Yaghoobian travels across the United States and Canada to offer a look into to the world of some of the giants of this modern subculture including Art Chantry, Brian Chippendale, the Ames Brothers, Print Mafia and Rob Jones who have worked on posters for groups like Arcade Fire, Broken Social Scene, Radiohead, White Stripes, The Melvins, Ween, Marylin Manson, Sonic Youth, Pearl Jam, Queens of Stone Age, Bob Dylan, Marianne Faithfull, The Shins, and the list goes on.

I’m really looking forward to that film. A number of my friends from gigposters.com are in it.
Art Chantry is my main inspiration source.
