[General] Fwd: [MhvMkrs] Anyone want to be on the teevees?

Fri Sep 21 02:37:43 CDT 2012

I think its a great idea but I'm not sure if it would work, I'd love to get
together with whoever is interested and talk it out, maybe even put a rough
episode together. My concern is of corset time, but also equipment. I have
dabbled in video editing before but nothing too in depth, mostly just
itunes videos with music overlaid. Do we have mics and other equipment to
do a show like this? Also we would need writers to make sure the show had
flow and Ass interesting. We would also need a hook, something that is the
core to the show. I'm imagining it would be something like a mix between
this old house and prototype this. But mainly with that is how do we expect
to keep peoples attention? I think it would make a good YouTube channel but
then we have to have consistency and with everyone's schedules that is
going to be difficult. We would also need original music for it so that we
wouldn't need to worry about copyright crap, and a sound booth with
recording software to do voice overs but I think we already have that at
the shop.

It's worth a shot but its going to be a lot of work abc it is something I
am very interested in so I vote we give it a go and see what comes of it.
Keep me in the loop
