Alright everyone, Fhat TV have been up to quite a bit recently and we think some things are changing with the dvd idea.

A couple weeks ago we went for a meeting with the website www.bragster.com, they were cool people and after the meeting we left with our own fortnightly (unpaid but with a budget) internetshow. While they wait for us to make our pilot theve spotlighted me on the home page.

www.bragster.com

The spotlight video is be on the home page in the big video box with 5 other videos.

We were thinking of useing what we were going to use as dvd footage for this show... each show is only 6 mins and is going to include interactive, random clips and interview with clips segments. We even have a theme tune thanks to Jamie :laugh: The show should start this month.

and also heres a funny video of me in Newquay summer 08 singing Beer Sandwich Live in Walkabout :biggrin:

so far they said they will cover any costs like small props and travel etc, but if it's over about £50 they wanna know if its worth it

these guys love big public ideas so I'm sure if we think of a good one they will go all out, they allready have done a few times in the past

Thats cool man.
Best thing for you to do is build up as big of a fan base as possible, make your show as interactive as possible and then a few months down the line ask for money, or a percentage of placed advertisement revenue, as you cant forget websites like this can make millions of pounds from your content, so don't forget who's making it (my girlfriends dad has one of these companies that have online shows, and the company is valued at around 99 million dollars).
Saying that it is clear that the website probably doesn't make much money yet as it looks like its just started, so obviously give it time for them to find out if they-re going to sink or swim.

the site is pretty big already and has been around for a few years, it's been in the paper a few times
so hopefully we will get well known on it, who knows something else might pick us up
but yeah that money ideas good, see how it goes
