Cameras, Lights and Other Stuff You Probably Shouldn't Buy 16 Replies

I am a firm believer that you need to ask yourself the question "why?" about a thousand times a day. (To yourself anyway. If you do it out loud people will treat you like you need medication.)…Continue

Jim, it seems like you have a camera. Are you in need of a partner?

Don't say you didn't see it coming :).
Comment by Jim Brennan on December 3, 2008 at 6:11pm
Actually, I didn't see it coming. But I can be kinda slow...

Anyway, I doubt I have time to work on an entire project with you, but when you have something specific in mind, shoot me an e-mail. I may be able to be involved in some way. And if I can't help you, there may be some others who can.

Hey, guys, I just won a copy of Movie Magic Scheduling 7-6 as a door prize. I won't use it because I use Gorilla Pro. Any one want to give me $50 for it? It's not sealed but it's never been installed and has the serial number on the disk.
Comment by Jim Brennan on December 12, 2008 at 3:09pm
Dang Zee. That's very gracious of you. I use Gorilla as well, so i have no use for it. But I hope someone takes advantage of your generosity.

I don't think it can be used on my Apple (Intel) :-( but I could be wrong.

Does anyone know who has the best rates for E&O insurance?
Comment by Haylar Garcia on August 16, 2009 at 3:58pm
ZEE!!!!!!

The best rate for E&O insurance is to MAKE THE DISTRIBUTOR PAY FOR IT AS PART
OF THE DEAL.

Do not pay E&O for them to distribute, make it part of their recoupable cost, or they will stick it to you !!!

I am a video production student at Metro, with some real world experience. I am also an accomplished auto and light truck mechanic with 25 years experience. I'm interested in post production mostly, and hope to learn from everyone here. I'm sure my ability to fix things would useful to someone looking to build a team. I'm up for just about any challenge. Let's get it going!
