Hi Bill

Thanks for your post.

Sounds like an amazing opportunity.

Quick question though.

1. Shooting, editing, scripting/narration, music, DVD authoring all done while on the trip by just one person?

Thats allot of talent/work for one to do or can it be a small 2 person team.

These guys were one of our sponsors during a project with Sperm Whales in Baja. Very serious and professional operation.

If I was ten years younger.........!!

Seriously, options like this come along very seldom. It would be a fantastic adventure for a few years to travel, hone the skill and see some great action.

Cheers,

Mark.

Wags, I hung out with their video guys on that trip I was on. Its just like doing the daily stuff but for a week, more time to fine tune the edit, use audio and come up with a final product. Pretty straight forward.

Hi all, Bill didn't post this. I came across this by accident and thought that someone here might be interested. I always said that I would never let life get so serious that I wouldn't take advantage of an opportunity like this one if it came along. However,....

Man that sounds fun. Hmm...I wonder how my wife and 2 girls would feel about daddy taking a pay cut and being gone half the year...hmm

ah, if I was 10 yrs younger and had a lot more u/w video experience under my belt...

Oh, yes... As shawn said... my wife was not so amazed as me to apply for this extraordinary job...

But I feel good that someone will have this job or joy, and I hope it will be a wetpixelian and will report back to us

I applied for this job and was doing so well..As soon as he said do I get on well with people I told him to Faff off who the faff does he think hes talking to of course I faffing can...

He put the phone down...

Is it me... <_<

Dive safe

P.s ten years younger Mark you'd be 42...

FCP...well there's me out...

The only thing I know about MACS is mine sits in the cupboard

Wonder what the pays like.

That sounds like a sweet job.

If only I could convince Zoe..... SLAM back to reality!

Cheers, Simon

i need a job...

i need a job...

There's one here - when do you want to start ?

i need a job...

This one is very tempting, but being gone a straight 6 months, don't know how the wife would like it. Maybe she'd jump for joy. I'm 57, wonder if I'd have to tote that barge and lift a bale as well.

Mark....I thought Nick M. was taking the Palau job?

Hi Bill

Not necessarily Wags.. It's called working in the Solo VJ paradigm. It's becoming more popular with broadcast stations and is providing content in a more timely fashion and less costly as compared to using 2-3 person production crews. ABC News here in the states has announced they are going to move to this new paradigm for their international bureaus by creating one-person operations that will dramatically boost its coverage in Africa, India and elsewhere.

I'm working this way now for my clients and self generated projects and it is working quite well.

I will be doing this while producing this years DEMA video podcasts for UWDV.COM.
