PINK FLOYD - Bad Day At The Office Film To Premiere At Glastonbury Festival





A filmmaker fan of PINK FLOYD has created a 12-minute animated film
based on the tribulations of the band’s lighting director at a 1973
show. The film, entitled Bad Day At The Office, features new, tongue in
cheek, animation based on an actual recording of Floyd lighting designer
Arthur Max grappling with the technical challenge of working with a
brand-new follow-spot crew. In June 1973, Pink Floyd were performing at
Detroit’s Olympia Stadium, where the venue policy was to use only
inhouse staff who were more used to covering ice hockey events. The film
shows an animated version of Arthur Max having to lick his ad hoc team
into shape on the hoof, and is accompanied by a live rendition of
‘Obscured By Clouds’.





Directed by animator Cliff Port and produced by Simone Kay, the
world premiere for Bad Day At The Office will be at this year’s
Glastonbury Festival, in the Pilton Palais Cinema, aka The Cinema Tent,
on Friday, June 28th at 11.30 PM.
