"Have You Seen TAN?" the independent rockumentary film by Filmmaker Douglas Branson. The film is in the final shooting
/ post production stages, and will be entered (and the trailer) in a festival soon. The film exhibits life happening in the
late eighties and early nineties, for a group of up and coming artists; musicians and performers, on South Street, in Philadelphia
PA. The airbrush artist Michael Tancredi (aka TAN) and his large portraits of Hollywood greats, and entertainment figures,
is the main focal point. Sadly he was killed in a car accident, with Albert Calanzi on Halloween nite 1991, at age 29. The
bulk of the raw footage was shot on location by dB in Philadelphia during this time. It is racy account of a decade that went
by like a long crazy weekend. Yep it was Sex, Drugs, Rock and Roll, with ART and Music 24/7. It had its price, lost brain
cells, lost loves, loss of sleep, reputations, and lost friends. It is the intent of the film to show and tell it like it
was, and create interest in popular art culture for TAN's work and life. If you knew TAN and have a story, and care to be
interviewed, please contact me as soon as you can to discuss a time frame.
