Hello JW Sounders,
I'm going to Bhutan later this year for a feature. While I'm there, I'll be providing production sound training at a Buddhist monastery. I'd like to donate some equipment to the monks. They've developed an interest in film production and have made a few films already with the help of outsiders. Now, they're hoping to produce films themselves. Links to their work/bios below. If you have equipment that you would like to donate (cables, poles, bags, mics, etc.) please consider giving them to the developing film community of eastern Bhutan. Thanks in advance for your consideration.
Donations can be sent to Professional Sound in NY addressed to myself, David Stevens, C/O Rich Topham III.
I'll pay for shipping.
