Apoligies

In the past few weeks some of you have ordered stuff from me that ended up getting shipped late.

I've been working on an experimental multimedia piece (http://www.thepublici.tv - a sort of Truman Show meets 1984) and wasn't in front of the computer taking frequent breaks from screenwriting as usual.

I plan to get caught up with everything this week.

Nope, no '****' on there... lingerie is about all you'll see, though there is a fist fight, a guy getting hot coffee dumped in his lap, etc...

Wow Manntis, that's some really bad acting, I'd hope you were just in charge of the web design and not the video production - as it's pretty lame.

I don't know what's worse, that you think it's a video production or that it's bad acting. It's a Reality TV series! The bit about Mike was to provide 'backstory'.

You've got to be kidding Manntis! It's so blatent that it's not even debatable. Let me state the two worst screw-ups in trying to make it realistic:

1. The lighting is always just right.
2. The Spy Squad's cams are too stable.

If they are mounted in/on something, they will be stable...Like a tripod...

They're bolted inside mirrors, alarm clocks, etc. If they're perfectly still, of course they're stable! (the buttoncams are more 'all aver the place')

The cameras are 3CCD (3 chip), which make use of ambient light in her apartment (single-chip cameras tend to have more video grain under low light). They have a bit of a hissy fit when she turns out her lights, though. Most other locations have high natural light or spot-lamps (like the coffee shop)

C'mon man, level with us: does she really think this will be her Big Break into stardom? I know you're a smooth talker, but this project is pretty low profile, and her "acting", well...

Wait a minute, why isn't this conversation in the Lounge?

If you went into someone's house and started filming the person who lives there, would you want it to be high profile?
