wow, this got me laughing hahaha, good work man

I've always wondered, what does paying your dues mean nowadays? Taking crap pay, working for nothing, and providing your equipment for free for those still in the low end? It's so hard to make producers budge on low indie features when another guy is so quick to pounce on $150/day including equipment. boo.

how do you compare the dr680 to the r4? I currently have a tascam hdp2 but i need more tracks, thinkin about getting a dr680 or r44 until i can save up for an SD or nomad

So Ed what did you end up getting?

I wear New Balance running shoes, so much better than wearing Vans on set, those long hours were a killer on my knees.

You should grab a turkey leg while youre there, nom.

Hey Rado, how much did that Hawkwoods distro run you?

I saw them do one of the stunts in long beach, it was pretty awesome

Chrome is great until the shockwave plugin crashes periodically and you have to empty your cache just to get some pages to load like facebook.

who'd you go with Mike?

I was hoping to see Drive in some more categories but thats alright, is this the first time in awhile that Pixar isnt in the running for best animated film?

Dude, I love Fitz and the Tantrums they are awesome, thanks for the post.

Hey Philip have you had any issues with the 23.97 setting on the HD-P2. Thats the only setting I've had problems with trying to get the TC working. And regarding the drift, yeah I read a lot about it a few years ago, wasn't sure if it still applied today.

Isn't the issue with the HD-P2 is how bad its TC drifts?

so is everyone favoring the 801s 802s over the TL-40s?

work out my core and back for those long hours carrying a bag, woooooooh.

I've been listening to the soundtrack by Jonsi, can't wait to check out the movie.

I did the same thing! Cheers to that.

Yeah I did take a look at the Nook but I wasn't happy with its look, aesthetically, I rooted with the Fire and its been great. I haven't had any issues with the lack of gigs of memory but its been getting better and better. ice cream sandwhich is coming out soon! There are a few things about the fire that bug me but so far I've enjoyed it.

Ive had the kindle fire since it came out, love it, definitely recommend it for its price it does wonders.

I was watching a special on Avatar once and Jon Landau, the producer, answered a question about whether he gets nervous about a project or not and he said this. "The day you stop getting nervous, is the day you stop caring" So i'm sure we all get anxiety because we just care about our work!

Is there a sample you can post on how you are providing the standard rate and discount on your invoice?

Noo! I was gonna use some of what you said in the original post as a response to an email, I knew I should of copied it before hand.

SD 302, love it. No more finkling around with the tascam hd-p2s weird inside outside gain knob, that was a drag.

You are not alone, I always wondered what ENG meant, now I know, thanks for asking! haha
