Honour Crest's Final Show on September 26th at Shaka's in Virginia Beach. Filmmakers Joey Trask & Korey Hood both agreed to include the final show in the documentary because of Honour Crest's towering influence in the music scene, and the belief that the documentary would look "very silly" without it. "The Dysfunctional 757", an on-going documentary about the local music scene, is set to cover
However, the inclusion of the final show isn't without consequence: the much-anticipated documentary was originally slated for a Fall 2014 release, however that release date is more than likely to be pushed back to early next year due to the start of post-production beginning later than expected. A firm release date has yet to be announced for "The Dysfunctional 757" which has now been in production for 13 months. Production to Focus on More Interviews, Second Unit Photography "The Dysfunctional 757", a documentary covering the local music scene for Southeastern Virginia reached an important milestone on February 21st: the end of filming shows for the documentary. For seven months, Director Joey Trask & Executive Producer Korey Hood have gone to dozens of shows in an effort to capture the vibrant local music scene that has been described by some as a "dysfunctional family". Production sprung to life in late July of last year when news broke that Budda's Place, a popular music venue in Newport News, was closing its doors for good. Roughly seven months later, the production team has now shifted gears into the next phase of production. Moving Closer to Post The production team will continue to conduct interviews for the documentary, but instead of going to shows to conduct these interviews, the interviews will be conducted in Lost Terminal Productions' home studio located in Newport News where various people in the local music industry will be invited to take part in an interview process that includes reacting & commenting on some of the show footage that the production team has gathered over the past seven months. Second unit photography, which will include scenic location shots and some traveling shots, is also expected to be completed this month. The film is on track for its much-anticipated fall 2014 release.

Filming for the documentary is ongoing, with post-production expected to begin sometime in January. AFTER SEVERAL SHOWS FILMED, DOCUMENTARY FINALLY HAS A NAME.

No set release date has been set, but it is safe to say that it will be released sometime next year.
