Charlie, can you put the recorder on when you tell the Missus you're shacking up with Kerry?

Only if Smugmug host it and offer me 20K for my next project

We've seen it it's coming tonight

And we're excited to be associated with Vincent, and his passion for photography, his creative zeal, and his totally awesome attitude Let's not forget that he's a Pulitzer Prize winner, eh

Having spent nearly the entire past 48 hours on the phone with him, I can tell you that he's an awesome guy, and we're lucky to be associated with him.

We think that hi def video is a big part of our industry, that's why we beefed up our Video offering many months ago. It's here to stay and we will be part of this evolution (revolution?).

Cool -- thanks for the context. Didn't know that you and Baldy had gotten a private screening. Was that before or after the offer? :-}

Very cool Andy. I actually read the entire blog. I like the caveat that is is for the young frame of mind. Pun intended? Don't know.

Now, I wonder if we know anyone in the real movie business who could help with quick edits of short films. hmmm

Anyone?

What is funny about this whole thing is I started out dabbling in digital video editing about 9-10 years ago with Premier 6. That got me into playing with PS, scanning images and eventually more into photography (or back into photography from the late 70's). So now we are full circle.
