Thanks for all the comments good & bad! I'm hoping to do my next piece on this interesting guy that makes beautiful instruments out of ordinary sports equipment! I hope he says yes!

I'm going to set a deadline for myself, and will try to have something up in 2-weeks. We'll see! -Skeeter-

I never thought balloons could be so cool, and now I see it much more as an art, a very amazing art.

Hi,

I really enjoy watching you "intro" your shows, as

well as "out-tro", however...

1) Hire a Cameraman. ($200-$300 per day) 2) Hire an

assistant (free)

3) Hire an editor ($75-$90 hr) and finally 4) hire a

titles and music.

For your Two Grand investment, you will move from

youtube

to boob tube (TV).

I saw the feature doc of this guy going around the world with a still photographer. The photography was amazing. After that, the hats ceased to matter. It was more about the joyful portraits of people everywhere. If you can catch it, I highly recommned it. It's called Balloonhat. Very touching doc.
