Lee H: Also filming next wednesday (8th). Pyramid from 6pm, bands doing interviews and acoustic songs.

maria: I have been visiting various blogs for my dissertation writing assignment research. I have found your blog to be quite useful. Keep updating your blog with valuable information... Regards

I loved it. was really impressed by the standard of production from our end. The Jib and track made it for me!

Lee H: Disappointed about the few who were suppose to come down, but didn't however...We had a very dedicated bunch of people down, morale and energy was good and everybody wanted it to look good in face of adversity. Footage looks great. Especially the dol... [read more]

Hi folks Arthur Adams has a script and is looking for someone (well that would be several people really!) to make the film for the Long Shot festival. It's a 6-page. I am sort of interested in directing but I'm also trying to get my own project written in time to be made so not sure how to play this. If anyone else has a burning desire to run with this I'm happy to hand it over.

Let's go for Funding and produce a Feature Length Film (or close to 90mins) with some great equipment and new facilities. If you're interested sign up and we can set a date to meet and get started. What Role woudl yo like to do? We can look at getting you on some specialist training.

Lee H: Everything? :) I think i could carry out those Sideburns...

dan10k: I'm up for that like a long-standing erection! Again, I would do pretty much anything, though I'd like more advanced editing training - anything with after-effects and such. Damn James, where does that guy get off on stealing my facial hair!

Cecile: Sounds good to me - but do we have a script? What are the "great new facilities"? Intriguing. Aren't some of us already busy with Long Shot at the moment though? Happy to contribute as best I can and any extra training would be great (e.g. camera; li... [read more]

Hey guys I was just checking out a contact who is a key partner in a some Cheshire studios (Orchard in Crewe) and I found this that they've produced: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsOj7Xt7aE4 The filming looks pretty uninspiring and at times very amateur -camera movements etc. I'm assuming Orchard have produced this but it might have been the band's contacts. However, it made me wonder if we might be able to help them out...(They offer film/vide... [read more]

dan10k: Can we organise to get as many people who are going to be involved in the filming process (including sound, etc.) to get down to the Pyramid one Saturday morning (10-2)? Try and rope any old band to play to get, A: An idea of how to set-up, and organ... [read more]

Lee H: 30th will probably be too soon for most, even if many of us are jumping at the chance. We don't know what we are organising so maybe if 3,4,5 people can come up with what we need, we can bring people in who we indentify as needed (sound/presenter etc... [read more]

Cecile: Having had umpteen meetings to organise who would be involved, I thought we already knew! We had the 25th of APRIL in the diary but that never happened! I don't think I can make 30th May - I've only just joined so only just seen this proposed date so... [read more]
