Wyatt Tuzo Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Thought of another T-shirt (which I think is used by Pro Sound in NYC): Lav 'em and Leave 'em! I know it's meant in jest, but I've always found this one a bit questionable. To me, it spells complacency. Maybe Im over thinking it.

Richard Topham Jr Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 NO need to buy our Lav'Em and Leave'Em Shirt or MOS Hat, just give me an e-mail (admin@pro-sound.com) with your name and address and I will send it to you. By the way......MOS shirts are on their way! As soon as I have them in stock, I will let you know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Wielage Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I know it's meant in jest, but I've always found this one a bit questionable. Aaaa, the "Lav 'Em and Leave 'Em" is just a joke. I'm positive no real director or crewmember would take it seriously. I've already had some positive comments about the "No MOS" caps -- people like those! In fact, a person at one of the LA sound sales companies saw it and asked about it, and their faces fell when I said, "oh, it came from Pro Sound Services in NYC!"

old school Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Way back when I was a young cable man we had some t shirts made of a quote that was I believe from Haskel Wexler "Why grow up when you can make movies?" I alway liked that sentiment. CrewC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonam Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 My ten pence worth: "I stop for Room Tone" "I love the sound you make when you shut up" "Sound advice comes from the Sound dept only' "Are you the sound mixer or am I?"

hemmerlinj Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 A cam op once told me he worked with a sound mixer that had a T-shirt that said,"Place Key Light Here!" It might have been a boom op that was wearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Wielage Posted August 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 I demand a royalty! (Or at least post a picture of the "Sound Is Speeding" T-shirt. I think that idea came from a conversation with Steve Deichen.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
