knight rider online

To all fans and members,

Coming in just over two years time is a brand new DVD documentary project on "AIRWOLF". An independently-produced retrospective of British origin, and professionally made by myself, Martin Grant (producer/director), Eric Shepherd (lighting cameraman) and Mark Cairns (associate producer), it will feature close to 50 cast and crew interviews, including some familar "KNIGHT RIDER" names:

* Lance LeGault ("Vernon Gray" in the 'Pilot' / "Christopher Stone" in 'A Knight in Shining Armour')
* Sondra Currie ("Francesca Morgan" in 'Not a Drop to Drink')
* Catherine Hickland ("Stevie Mason" in her own trilogy of episodes)
* James Whitmore, Jr. ("Rick Calley" in 'Knight Moves')
* Harvey Laidman (episode director)
* Louis Race (1st assistant director)
* Lenore Kasdorf ("Lori Wainwright" in 'Lost Knight' / "Karen Bennett" in 'Fright Knight')
* Wendy Schaal ("Jamie Downs" in 'The Nineteenth Hole')
* Sandra Kronemeyer ("Monica" in 'Knight in Retreat')
* Burton Armus (supervising producer/writer)

"KR" was discussed in some of the interviews, but those segments will not make the final cut. They'll be made available as bonus extras, unless someone here decides to produce their own documentary on the show.

Release is set for January 2014, to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the series.

This is not a joke, and is completely legitimate.

Hi there Martin,

This is wonderful news to hear, and I'd like to thank you for letting us know. Since this section of the forum is set to be pruned automatically every 90 days, I'm going to move it into the general discussion area so that it won't be lost.

Matt

Much appreciated, Matthew. Cheers.

2nd blog post is up. Included is Louis Race, who as I stated in this topic's opener, was 1st Assistant Director on the 3rd and 4th Seasons of "KNIGHT RIDER".

This is awesome! I would LOVE to do something like this for KR, but time and location make it difficult.

Joe

Joe, I'd consider it if the money was available from an outside source. I invested a small fortune for the main shoot. By the time it comes in '14, it'll have been a substantial one.

Thanks for the comment.

And some familiar faces for you "KR" lot

Martin - this is fantastic. I had actually been looking for some of the people that you interviewed for my new 30th anniversary Knight Rider book coming out next year....specifically, Lance LaGault and Lenore Kasdorf. This is shaping up to be a fantastic documentary - you have a buyer in me!

Joe

I'd be happy to put you in touch with them, Joe.

PM me sometime.

Fourth and final post for 2011, folks.

Merry Christmas from the "AIRWOLF" documentary team:

Harvey Laidman's one of "KR's" directors too, helming episodes such as 'Soul Survivor', 'Knight in Disgrace' and 'Circus Knight' amongst others.

And you'll get great interviews from them both, Joe.

Hello everyone,

Apologies for lack of updates since Christmas Day last year. A few are en route, including news on the post side, and how you can become involved as a producer. There's been a fair bit to do, but I'm waiting until the details are sorted on the plan.

Alright ladies and gentlemen,

A brand new, and rather long 5th post has just gone online, so please let me know your thoughts, as I'd like to hear them.

Apologies again for the update delay, but I trust you've all been checking in from time-to-time, and your support is genuinely appreciated.

Dear all,

Dear all,

Tonight, we have a special update for you. An exclusive, 5-minute PROMO, showcasing the cast & crew of "AIRWOLF", discussing the unforgettable theme music and episodic scores by the show’s leading composer, Sylvester Levay.

With thanks to co-producer Mark J. Cairns for cutting this, and producing the azimuth motion graphics that are based on those designed for the series, it's a fantastic preview I hope you'll enjoy.

It's also to push forward the IMMINENT deadline for the fundraising campaign. There is only 11 DAYS LEFT.

It ends NEXT Friday, 14th September.

If you haven't already made a contribution, and have been planning to do so (as I'm aware from three long-serving fans they are), I would hugely appreciate it if you could submit as soon as possible, so we have a better idea of how much we'll be left to raise in the final week. I don't mean to push at all, as we've done well so far, but there's just under $3,500 remaining to gather, and time's catching up on us.

Many thanks once again everyone and regards,

MARTIN GRANT
Producer/Director
