or switch to the more sun-friendly and alcohol-intensive margarita!

i e-mailed chris--don't expect to hear back from him too quickly, what with the shoot-out and NAB approaching. which doesn't stop us from doing our own thing, so i started a separate, designated thread. check it out here, and those of you who posted here, post there so we can show the level of interest to those who are not reading this thread:

Hello From Ventura, California
 

Hello, I'm Don DesJardin currently living in Ventura, California. Ventura is coastal town located about half way between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara. Hopefully in the next few months I'll be selling out in Ventura and looking forward relocating to Canon City, Colorado. I'm currently stuck in the 4:3 SD world with an XL1 coupled with a Nikon 80-400mm. When the house sells, I plan to take a few $$ and invest in a XL H1. I have been concentrating mostly on bird documentation, but also have been dabbling in butterflies and the world of macro. I have done a few 1 hour bird "eye candy" video programs for the local Audubon groups around Southern California, but beyond that, most all of my shooting has been a hobby and a great way to get out in the field and relax. I'm very much looking forward to Colorado and the diverse habitat and bird life it has to offer.

returning to Denver after 10 long years in LA
 

I did learn a few things in LA, but I will be happy to bid it farewell. Hoping to meet people that work in video production, like myself. I edit (FCP) and have worked in post for years (south park). graduated from CU- boulder in film production. I promise I won't bring any more californians with me (besides my wife).

thanks
andy kemler

Hi Don, welcome aboard DV Info Net, good to have you with us!

Hey Andrew,
Welcome Back!
I've often thought about going out to L.A. but just can't bring myself to do it.
I figure you can make movies anywhere but there are way more production jobs out there than here...or maybe I haven't looked hard enough:)

thanks eric..I tell people..only go to LA if you know exactly what you intend to do when you get there..(dp/editor/raise $ for feature/etc.) I moved to LA not knowing what the hell I wanted to do and spent 7 years working really hard for little money and zero enjoyment while credit card bills pilled up. but now I'm an ediitor and make little money but enjoy it.
