Is Your Group Submitting Footage?

moody you seem like a cool dude I have even helped you alot, telling you about good homegrown groups, but I have a few problems with this

one stop pm'ing me to contact other groups it's not my fucking job and I have been doing it since the beging it seems

also the music sucks I want to see what I will edit with

honestly thanks for the offer and im just speaking for me I wont be sending in stuff I am not saying no one should im just saying im not

I don't want to deal with someone that isn't homegrown or an outsider, I relized I would rather my shit me in somthing I respect than doing it for the cash

Who else you trying to get to do your work for you on HGF moody?

And well said Vode.

For starters, I was mainly asking Steve to put me in contact with some other groups that I don't have the contact information for. Not asking him to secure me deals, simply asking me to put me in contact with them.

yeah and I didn't mind the first 3 times but it gets annoying, it's not my job either, just pm the groups you want to contact if they care they will pm you back

Vode... Just to answer a few of your concerns. Sending footage is up to you. I'm not holding a gun to anybody's head and forcing them to send footage. If you don't want to be in the DVD then that is cool with me. That will make more room for other groups.

I'm not a cheap ass producer. I spend money when spending money is right. It is call budgeting. Yes, I can call somebody in Finland, it is up to you to contact me and ask me to call you rather than assume that I won't call you. I was actually on the phone today with 3 groups and things went well. Talking on the phone is much better than arguing in message board threads and making blind assumptions.

I said you like commercial music because that seems to be the case with many groups. I'm having the music situation taken care of. Does it take time to have this handled? Yes. Can you be patient enough to wait until it is handled? Not sure. I would not consider you better than me when it comes to producing. I'm fairly well skilled with the trade and have many DVDs in stores, work with several celebrities, and since my productions sell in stores it can make getting good music more difficult because bands or their managers will come at me with unreasonable demands. I'm playing things smart and keeping revenue for the involved HG groups.

To call me a pedophile is way out of line. You don't know me and you don't know which groups I'm working with. I've talked with several groups and they are 18+ so you're ridiculous accusations here are not needed and are uncalled for. Groups send me footage, if some group that has underage members sends me vulgar footage, it will never be used in my DVDs.

I'm not ripping off other people. I'm releasing a DVD of groups performing stunts, pranks, whatever you want to call it and they will recieve money from the production and also promotion. The best of the best groups have also been offered some money up front. The up front money though can't be offered to everybody because some groups will send me footage that won't make the cut.

You might not like a box set idea and that's your opinion. We all have opinions. The legth of the DVD depends on how many groups are involved and the quality of the footage.

People can call me at 626 665 7571 or pm your phone number and I'll call you and you can make independent decisions on trusting me. This DVD is legit. It has a well respected editor, as you can see with the 101 Reasons DVD it will be well promoted, it will be distributed in stores and possibly TV commercials. If you want to trust me then thank you for your trust. If you want to doubt me, then that just gives me more motivation to prove you wrong and make this DVD something very special.

You would be gaining several hundreds of dollars if not a thousand +. I have been offered a $30,000 up front deal but no royalties for 101 Reasons in N. America but I have turned it down because my entertainment lawyer said we can get a better deal that will also involve royalties. So lets say we got a similar deal for the HG DVD, that would be nearly $10,000 straight to the involved HG groups. You might consider that pennies but I don't. This is an example of the deals my entertainment lawyer creates. He's been in the business for a while now and has his connections and he'll make some big things happen for the HG DVD.

The DVD will also be a top notch production. Literally I will be willing to put up the production quality of this HG DVD next to any other DVD of this genre. It is going to be something great. My editor is also already excited about the DVD so that is another plus. This is goign to be something special and if you don't believe me and you don't want to be involved, just wait until it is released and you hear what people are saying about the production.

lol

Hahaa..
Moody, I'm working on getting release form thingies signed, I might send footage this weekend.

Sounds good. Thanks.

So you do or dont want my footage?

Laugh all you want. In the end you won't be laughing anymore. The production is going well so far and a good amount of groups are involved. I have 5 other productions going on at the same time but I'll be equally focused on making this DVD a success.

I've spoke you with a few times and you know I want your group involved. You guys are well respected and would be good in the DVD I feel. The decision is yours. You can pm me if you want.

Okay, so are you saying that if I want talk with you, you´ll call?

Its just that you´ve rushed me to get footage to you, but as you know I could not edit footage without music and Im not sending unedited footage. Also you´ve promised to send me new songs for listening, you said you´d do it couple weeks ago, did not hear from you.

As may have allready quessed, I dont mean actuall butt play. I mean that you take advantage of young people.

If I were you producing this I would not take footage of underaged people, (I know you´ve had dealings with underage people) first of all it must be a bitch in USA: Legal problems, could somebody sue you for encouraging this kind of activities. And I think its unethical because they may not know what they are really taking part in. The dvd may just sound cool to them and take part without thinking it throug or asking advice from their parents or somebody older.

And the fact that you disgustingly abused those poor kids making the "worst group ever thread"

Im saying that your expectations are unrealistic, over 100minute dvd? I dont think you can keep it entertaining for that long. Stunt dvd should be quick adrenaline rush, 100mins just drags. And I dont think you get enough good footage for 100minutes either. Actually I dont have any idea what you think is good footage, point out few things you´ve seen so I get the idea.

First you said it was your friend or something, then you said you are talking to editors, then you said you get some Lord of the rings dude.... and you hype the LOTR, but he was editing dvd extras do I remember correctly? Does that need any talent, and do you realize its whole difrent deal to edit hg stuff than something else.

Howbout if you not assume just things out of your head, you are not very good at it. (if you want to bitch about that argument, you´ve assumed everythin like shit from the music I like to whatever.)



But when you divide that 10,000 to 15 groups or wahtnot its nothing anymore. Then the group splits their share with their five members. after that I consider it pennies. And the taxes.

How many groups there will be anyway?


Whats his name, so we can look in to him.


Yeah, you can use words allright, but for now those are just words.



For my opinion, if it really is that big of an opportunity, we should not let it get out of the community, but try to someone who has doned hg dvd already to make this happen.

Yeah I can call you.

Getting new music has taken longer than I thought but I'm in the process of getting some new material.

I don't encourage people to do stunts. I've never said, go do this or go do that. I simply say, send me footage you've shot in the past or footage you already have. I'm not taking advantage of anybody and I'm just looking to make an entertaining production. Most groups that send me footage are 18+.

Some good footage I've seen just off the top of my head has been muppets, they're pretty creative, asstreme showed me a really cool skate video. Freak Inc showed me some good videos but they were disgusting. There's a lot of good groups really and what I find most entertaining is that most groups are different and that will bring variety to the DVD.

The editor I'm working with now is a very talented guy. A good editor can adapt to any kind of footage. I've seen his work and I'm 100% confident that he'll make this the most creatively edited HG DVD ever.

10,000 divded by 15 is nearly $700 which is good money to most people. Some groups aren't even doing it for the money but I understand that money is an issue for some people.

My entertainment lawyer would not be happy with me giving out his name on the internet because his contact information and location would be revealed and he doesn't like me doing that, he's already warned me about this once. Unless he needs to talk to somebody I never get out his information.
