By Hook or Crook - By Troy Ruff

Thanks Troy. Hey, you gave me the pics to do it. I am excited to see Hook or Crook when you are done. BTW... I need a grip truck... Just thought I would randomly say that... :cheesy:
 
I have been pricing them. Seems a good one can be had for anywhere from $5K to $8K. Those have miles on them though. I have heard if you get one from a fleet that did good maintenance you can get a pretty good truck. As you saw in my 'grip trailer' for the Hook or Crook shoot, I have accumulated a lot of stuff.

Best: A 20' diesel cab over with AC and a large lift on the back and a compartment door and a side door. That would be fine. I could leave it packed all the time and not have to load and unload so much. That is a pain.

How is the sound going Troy? :smile:

Hey Gary,
we used trucks like that at a couple of places I worked for in the respiratory biz. A lot of those places ship them out when they hit 100K miles, and will sell them for a couple grand. Maintenance is usally kept current of them too.
Might check with Apria, Lifecare Solutions, etc and see if they are about to retire any.

For those who don't know, the large caliber pistol was just fired with a large blank and the gun is in the air from recoil. The report was LOUD... and the movie horses just keep on acting. It was very impressive.

That's great to hear. Black Box for the sound design and then Justin Durban... What a quality sound combo! :kali::shocked:
 
ok ok sorry, things are going so fast! I got the rough sound design back from Kunal and it sounds great. So then I got it to Justin Durban, who is doing the score for me, so he is working on that now. :) Mean while I am still editing working 40 hours a week at a apple. Matt, Gary and I have our feature film Stricken coming out on the 25th for our Red Carpet event. :) So we are preparing for that. I have a small project locally that Im filming and editing that is going to take a couple of days. Then next week we are all going to LA and do the final mix of Stricken, and I have a music video to shoot on the 21st. WHOOOO EEEEEEE! I have a lot to do. Oh ya also we have a tv interview on the 22nd, and Im going to camping for this weekend with friends from orgeon. ahhhhhh :kali::2vrolijk_08:
