NAB Party

Jonathan Ames · March 28th, 2007, 11:07 AM

OK. Monday night it is. I'll post the full details later today.

Adam Beck · March 28th, 2007, 03:50 PM

I will be there with my dad and my brother. Filmmaking is a family affair for us. We met Jaime at DV expo 06', it will be nice to meet everybody else. See you all soon.

Scott C. Chambers · March 28th, 2007, 10:40 PM

Monday works for me also!!!

Jonathan Ames · April 12th, 2007, 03:24 PM

As you know, this is the first year 2nd Unit has major sponsorships which have parties were obligated to attend. That said, I hope it's not too much of an incvonvenience to move the 2nd Unit Party to Tuesday from 6:00pm on. Actually, I have to work OT to get the prizes!!! Again, I'm so sorry for the move but the sponsors pay the bills (except this one which is on on me!) and I'm trying to work everything in. Believe me, just seeing you all and handing out the prizes will all be worth it, I promise!

Lisa Shofner · April 12th, 2007, 03:29 PM

No problem. You gotta do what you gotta do. As long as its not Wed night, I'm golden.

Thanks for all the hard work!

Jonathan Ames · April 12th, 2007, 04:20 PM

No, again, it's us who should be thanking you all and hopefully we are. So, Same Bat-Time...Same Bat-Channel. Tuesday, 6:00pm till whenever at Circus Ciurcus KOA Motorcoach Park 500 Circus Circus Drive just off the Strip north of the Circus Circus casino. We'll post the space numbers when we get there Saturday night.

Joe Bowey · April 12th, 2007, 05:55 PM

Works great with me. Post space #? Just hang a BIG 2nd unit banner with neon lights hey your in vegas.

Jonathan Ames · April 12th, 2007, 07:45 PM

So happy to hear that because you're one of the people we need to talk to about a full-time position...yes FULL TIME PAID position with 2nd Unit. The good guys who believed are gonna be rewarded for their patience, belief and trust! (Ain't that a change from "No good deed goes unpunnished") as we move to television. I hope everyoner else can make it as well.

Chris Luker · April 13th, 2007, 10:05 AM

Joe Bowey · April 13th, 2007, 03:00 PM

I hope you are talking to me about a job opportunity. I have my demo I'll be bringing to NAB. And if you are well I am toooooo excited to even type.
Now a new chaper in my life is about to be written.

Joe Bowey · April 14th, 2007, 05:12 PM

I am eager to move foward in my career Living here in AZ has advantages and I finally finished my demo reel.
Thou most jobs seem to want a website so I guess my next move is to set up a website to demo my stuff.

Jonathan Ames · April 14th, 2007, 09:13 PM

OK, the Space Number is 102 right across from the big check-in office and pool. Whomever makes it, we'll be happy to see you at 6:00 pm Tuesday. ust ook for the big custom-paint motorcoach with a apir of Harleys parked outside. It's really hard to miss. Whomever doesn't, we'll miss you but be thinking about you. It's you who's made all this happen.

Jonathan Ames · April 16th, 2007, 11:17 PM

No problem. Take one for a spin when you get here!

Joe Bowey · April 26th, 2007, 03:13 PM

Just want to thank Jonathan for the great time we had in vegas. This was not a good week to be at NAB and we almost drove home but getting together with Jonathan, Paolo, Lisa, Scott, and Chris made up for it.

Paolo, it was a pleasure to have met you. I would love to work with you in the near future just to pic your brain. Words don't begin to describe you and I can't wait to see you on the back cover of American Cinematagrapher.

Lisa, You have a great future ahead. Just keep shooting and editing.

Scott and Chris, you both showed me some excellent work and it keeps me wanting to learn more.

Jonathan, I see why you guys choose the XDcam. What an amazing picture and the workflo is probably the best way to shoot. Disc to record to and archive. This alone solves soooo many issues of backup etc. El Papel was excellent. I will rent this camera in the future.

Well I hope to work with you guys especially paolo soon. I need a jumpstart in my career and there are no better people on the planet than you guys.

I am 350 miles away but we can work something out. We'll I have to send my JVC camera out for repair. A few pixels out right in the middle of the frame no good. If they were on the top or side I could have delt with it but in the middle?
