This site is amazing, the amount of support here is great. I figure its time to take things to another level. I think we should hold a weekly project. The subject matter will be given on Monday and the Project clips and stills should be put in the "Screen Grabs / Clips of DVX footage" section by Sunday. Along with the project # and a brief description of the steps you took to create it. I really hope we can adopt this idea because I have ideas running through my head all the time but once I put the camera in my hand they fly away 
So this is a great way to get ideas flowing. Not only that but it is a great way to learn other genres techniques as well as displaying and viewing some great work...
If I may be the first to offer an idea for what Project #1 should be... I constantly see commercials for lawyers on the tv. I think it would be fun to recreate or enhance some of these. So the project is to develop a 30 sec attorney commercial. It can be a funny take on the normal spots or a serious spot with flashy editing whatever you want, and unless any of you know a lawyer you'll probably be a. acting in it yourself or b. getting some of your buddies to act, which should be entertaining in its own right.
I hope you guys can have fun with this and that you think it is a good idea give feedback and tell me what you think... and remember next Sunday the 4th is the first showing.
