GROUP 101 in San Diego?  N O T!

So I am checking out GROUP101 Films.  I like the idea and concept behind it (being forced to create).  I look through the site and see a SAN DIEGO CHAPTER and I'm thinking killer.

So, I send an e-mail to the so-called "GROUP LEADER/CONTACT" that basically states:

Hello, I would be interested in helping out with the San Diego Chapter in any capacity I can.  I own the DVX100 blah blah blah...

I get this response back "I am moving to LA to pursue Editing full-time; if you want to 'learn' filmaking, I suggest going to local public access or community college and filming actors there.  Good Luck"

I write back "Is there a San Diego Chapter and if so, can you forward me to the correct contact person?  I am not looking to goto PUBLIC Access nor the community college"

He writes back VER BATUM (spell?)

"The short answer is NO"

I write back "Maybe someone should tell GROUP 101 this?"


Im ranting. Wheres the ****ing courtesy?  dude. It's like, hook a brother up. That's it? There is no information available?

John,
That was so uncool! Sounds like an Editor who thinks he's the one making the magic all by himself. Where's his statue, you know the one that is gold and about 15 inches tall? Wait till he gets to L.A. can you say "small fish in a big pond" No offence meant to San Diego I have some good friends there.8)

I know exactly what you mean.

Dude was listed as THE POINT MAN and it specifically read "CONTACT THIS DUDE FOR SAN DIEGO".

So I did, and there wasn't even a hint of courtesy in pointing me in the right direction. IT was like "Cant help you.".

Whateva'

No worries.
