Hi Makus, that great; glad to have you onboard!

Hi Geir,

Thanks for that. Yes; 5 minutes or so would be about the right target for each individual story (as an edited final piece) - I'm not rue how much footage other people shoot, but I often find I can shoot close to 30 minutes (or more, up to an hour even) for a 5 minute piece.

Probably I think for this piece there would be footage required to 'bridge' from one story to another as well (it might be that the stories constantly cut from one location to another during the course of the final film, so that each location may be visited a number of times as the stories are cross connected) so the core story might be 5 minutes for each location but maybe more 'b' roll footage would be needed to cut from place to place (more establishing shots of the location for instance).

Simon,

I can shoot some footage for sure, I would definitely have my name left out of the credits if I show an thing real local. I will see what I can get and let you all use it however you want. I will go look for the old footage in my archive,

do we have a time frame for this? I've signed up for the around the world and I need to make usre I'm not biting off more than I can chew...

Hi Paul; the timeframe we are looking at is 12 months - so hoping to get entries in by April / May next year, but its fairly flexible. Essentially this is just something to do in-between the regular UWOL competitions.

Simon,

so, do you want me to shoot some cattle footage from the prairies for you??

Simon Wood · June 24th, 2013, 08:38 AM

Hi Dale,

That would be cool; however due to unforeseen circumstances I will probably not be able to focus on any projects for some time - so I am thinking we should put this on ice for a while.
