Hello from Vancouver

He and some college buddies were in Vancouver this weekend for a judo tournament. Last night they sampled the refreshments in several of your bars, with "some Irish pub" voted by the group to be the most fun.

I asked if I can expect more weekend sojourns, but apparently, it's an eight hour drive from their school in North Idaho. So, if any of you were in town last night and saw some unfamiliar-looking rowdy boys, one of them was probably mine. He was so innocent when he left home.... -->>>
It wasn't me...honest. I used to play in celtic bands in a few irish bare in vancouver. i can't say which pub he was in, but there's a few thhat are a lot of fun on a saturday night.

Hey there... Im in Vancouver! I also wanted to post about some upcoming opportunities on our production filming April.6-11 and then 14-19 in Vancouver. Were looking for any and everything if your interested. All you need is hands and common sense. so please email shane@1501films.com for info.

Cheers... And here is the original post.

1) Has anyone heard about a seperate focus and/or zoom controller for this beast of a camera? Looking for something so we can use a steady cam and have all the functions in hand.

2) We are a Vancouver based filmmaking commune and are currently in pre-production of our second feature which is a scifi comedy/interactive project. Which will be shot in a Vancouver studio between April. 6~11 and April.14~19.
We are attempting to do some pretty interesting things with this project and are looking for anyone interested in helping out, while also learning at the same.

What were looking for is anyone with the new SONY HD Camera. We are planning to have a couple ourselves but are looking for quite a few for atleast one day, when we are going to attempt an atleast 10 camera BulletTime sequence.

So... If you have one of these new cameras and are looking to test it out with a new and innovative project. Please send a general email to shane@1501films.com and in the meantime please check us out at www.1501films.com and 2 of our other cast/roomates pages at www.dustinladd.com and www.aubreytennant.com and then within the next week or so we should have the actual movie website up at www.labcoatunderground.com

Don't be shy about replying were a bunch of funny and interesting Vancouver residents. So if your interested in this project, please ask any questions you like.

And does anyone know of there being a zoom/focus controller for the SONY DV camera?

Cheers

Okay, Earon; you're off the hook. : )

He said he thinks the pub was Doolin's. Then he rattled off something about Sky and a couple of parrots (??). It sounds like they had a fabulous time!!

Thanks for the reply!

Lorinda,
Doolins is downtown and he'd have a good time there. But a far better time this Yhurdday - Paddy's Day. Tell him you've got spies everywhere :-)
cheers,

Tell him to go to Brandy's next time. It's a great... cough... pub.

As for the other recent posters, there are a lot of us DVinfo members here in Vancity.

Shane, we have specific forums for your questions, please ask them there. You'll get answers.

Maybe it's time for another DVinfo Vancouver meeting. The last one turned out well enough.
