ACCESS ALL AREAS - STEREOBOARD SHORT FILM
Check out our 'Access All Areas' short film below.
ABOUT THE 'ACCESS ALL AREAS' CAMPAIGN
The three and a half minute Stereoboard short film, 'Access All Areas', follows the experiences of a group of friends, who opt to go 'off road' obtaining their tickets, to blag their way backstage at a major gig and suffering dramatic consequences. The video was co-produced by Media Wales and stars Wales' own up and coming music stars Under The Driftwood Tree.
Stereoboard are working with the UK Government to assist with the Office of Fair Trading's Just Tick It campaign. 'Access All Areas' aims to stamp out the scourge of fake ticketing websites which is estimated to have cost UK music fans as much as £50m in 2010, with 1 in 12 people admitting to having been scammed, with 80% falling victim in the last year alone, losing on average £80 each. Stereoboard sees this issue as one which is a blight on the live music industry.
'Access All Areas' was filmed on location in Cardiff & Penarth in South Wales during January 2011.
