CARNAGE: Filming date(s) 20th/21st October

Hey I'm happy to be your camera op.

What camera have you got? Does it take xlr inputs, or can you get you get your hands on a Zoom recorder?

I filmed a promo for ESPN on a DSLR, with Zoom recorder and a 416 (Boom Mic) so it fine for that you can justy sync clap for edit.

I can loan equipment of mates, let me know what your after. I also live close by to a cheap sound rental company, there kit is quaility but well used. Can you do food and fuel?

Quoted out of context! With all that random blabbing you do, I didn't read that as a kind offer to deliver it, I read it as some sort of illogical insult (see PMT thread).

You only ever assume the worst of me, when all I was trying to do was be helpful.

Thanks mate. I think you may be overestimating the budget and professionalism here though. The fact I'm putting some effort into organisation is not an indication as to the quality of this production. It's just because I know how difficult it is to actually get friends to help with anything like this.

Fuel is a definite no. I will probably stretch to snacks although I believe Mrs Ace may be doing some sort of catering (tbc). The budget is zero. The cam is a Samsung HMX-F80. It has no inputs at all! So really the camera operator will be limited to record start and record stop, and pointing it in the right direction.

OK no worries, feel free to give me a shout if I can be of any use.

Says the guy who just had a friend come over for an entire days gardening at the drop of a hat...

Well, firstly, you're not a friend. You're more of a slave. Secondly, I felt sorry for you and invited you round out of pity. The gravel would've gone twice as far if we'd relied on my spacial awareness rather than yours. And lastly .... can't think of another insult right now.

Are you in next weekend? I have you down for sound man.

Yeah, I'm in.

I always knew you thought I was sound really, despite all the insults.

[DJ123]

I'm in and free both days!

I'm free both days also.

Did you get my txt?

Apparently we would need to do a risk assessment and send that to Sodexo who would then inform the insurers, who would then reply with a cover price, Sodexo would then reply to us. Looking at 3-4 weeks minimum.

Sorry mate, another example of how well the army is organised!
