How about we give these t-shirts away as runner up prizes for the next video contest?

LOL - Hey - I own the rights - I am going to see you all in court - arf...

i think it would be a cool runner up prize.

What freaks me out is that CP has done a funeral...

Not to sound sick or weird but it was a good experience, I was able to get my work out to more people in other countries ( The money was nice too, don't get me wrong) and its even in an archival library. The stories were great. Funerals are a good source of income but for some reason I don't get repeat business, but the ones I do get are dying for me to film them...

A typical example of "One person's death is another's bread." lol


Although I'm not sure this expression exists in the English language.

Can we make the t shirt prize the prize for bloke who comes last, becuase that would be me

Here's a few which given my limited experience should be taken with a pinch of salt;

# Never throw anything away, if it was good enough to film its good enough to keep on file (ok not strictly a rule more a guideline).

# The best effects/enhancements are those the audience never sees.

# Play. Experiment. Film normal things in interesting ways and see if you can make it work, but not when filming for someone else.

Great rules!

I'm especially with you on the "less is more" rule.
