I live in Memphis too.

I own a rental company: lonewolfhd.com

I am also making a horror film in about three weeks.

I also work with another filmmaker, Bryan Foshee and Many Hands Films. They are making a collective of short films.

What are y'all doing?

Equipment rental, eh?

You'll have to let me know what you have, we were in need of a jib earlier this week. Might (might) need some lights for a shoot comming up.

I just moved back into town a month or so ago, so I'm just barely setting up shop. I have a commercial and a (!low budget!) music video in the works right now.

If you need help with your horror movie, let me know, I'm alwayse looking to meet new people, help out and learn!

****Just noticed your website...I'll check it out!****

Give me a call tomorrow afternoon at the Lone Wolf #.

When I show up with my equipment for local people I work with, I don't charge anything. You meet a lot of people that way! Especially if it is no budget. If you have money, well.....

I would love to get together with you. I need lots of help on the horror film, right now it is just me and one other guy. It sucks making a feature film by yourself! Although I literally did that one time.

Anyways, I know another filmmaker in town that is doing a little project and we could use at least two more people to help out.

Hey this is nice to know. There are other people from Memphis on this forum.

Oh hey Jim. I just remembered where I know you from. John Paul's music video shoot at the power station. Hey how did thatfootage turn out. I would love to see some of it.

I got your number from Johnpaul the other day. I am currently in preproduction with John Simpson for his feature film project and I mentioned shooting it in HD and immediately thought of you. ISo I will give you a call later on once I find out what the budget is.

Just one question, if I remember correctly, did you say you had the external drive as well as two PS2 cards?

Waaaaaait a minute, I know a John Paul...do you know if he's working as a DP for a short film about a local songwriter?

Cedric - That is where you know me from. When I saw you posted, I knew it was you, I have been meaning to get in touch with you. Please do call me and let me know about the film. I am getting ready to shoot a horror film for three weeks and could use some help.

I have 2 of everything. Right now, one camera is in the shop, but I expect it back in a couple of days.

Daniel - Yes, John Paul did a music video for a local songwriter. Cedric worked on it and I shot some behind the scenes stuff.
