I'd be interested if I was in the UK, but I don't have a cam that can do 24p or 25p.

Guys must be making too much over there.

Heck, I could fly to the Uk for 400 pounds and still make some bucks to boot.

Peter, why don't you fly over yourself?

Cheers

Of course we're interested Peter, but I guess we readers have too much booked to help you. Sounds a good deal though, but I'm surprised at your wide tolerance band - PAL or NTSC, 16:9 or 4:3. I guess it's a two-person shoot - one to ask the questions, one to press the REC button.

Hi Peter..

most intrigued! how lucky I am then to be a UK fellow videographer at your time of need :)

I've sent you an email but if you haven't got it, please let me know.
is there a deadline for the applicant entry?

i can definitely do Oxford and London (I grew up and studied there, so I'm very familiar with them)...and I am willing to do Manchester and Stratford Upon Avon if you can't get cover for those too...

many thanks
