I was able to get in touch with director Chris Seufert via email and have learned a bit more about the status of the Edward Gorey Project. He states:
The documentary is on hold for now while we finish a similar type project with musician Suzanne Vega. There's a lot of business to work out on the project as well, as [Edward] died before we were completely finished. However, the material really is great and you're not alone in anticipating it. We definitely will be finishing it up and will have a dedicated web site soon.
Chris also told me that the music has begun to be recorded, and that in addition to using songs that Edward selected for his theatrical productions, his production company has been speaking with Amanda Palmer of the
Dresden Dolls about doing some original music for the film.
In addition to the teasers linked from the
original post on this topic, you may want to take a look at this
360 degree view of Edward's studio, shot by Chris using a fish eye lens the week following Edward's death.
And, regarding the Suzanne Vega film, the
A-Minor Interview teaser is really neat. I'll try to stay on top of this film's progress as well and post any new information I run across.
