Default Re: What are YOU doing to help?

I support three filmmaking teams, provide the equipment; HD camera's,
shot gun mike's, Lav mikes, Lights, legs N' fluid heads, editing CPU's, camera
cranes, booms, gels, soft lights, etc.

Actors, directors stay in my home, if from out of town, for a shoot being done
in AZ... Also, I allow my home to be used for shoots [as long as they clean
up after]...

Recently, a broadcast director lost her job with a local TV station. I buy her
food, give her support until she gets back on her feet.

A DP, and his wife just had a baby [yesterday] girl... I help... where I can...

If, someone needs to talk... They know I'll give them good honest advice...
Some, just need lines for a script, I'm accused of being quick witted...

And, for my own fun and for the filmmakers, I fly a UAV w/camera for
overhead shots... For the shot list...

Generally, I do what I can for others... Everyone, has a hard time every now
and again... I provide stress relief for some. I help those that help themselves.
If I help someone the agreement is they have to pay it forward... Or, I can't help
them.

I believe that's why I survived...

Trooly,


Tango
