I Threw My Hat Into The Ring
Well, I did it!
I attended the first WBDD committee meeting yesterday and somehow committed myself to producing their promotional video. How the heck did that happen? And I thought all I will be doing are ushering duties during the night.
I’ll have to discuss with Conny what how she wants it done. If it’s a simple matter of taking bits and pieces of existing videos and putting them together for a 30 second commercial, that shouldn’t be a problem with the tools I have. But if it’s something that requires shooting additional footage and stuff like that, weeeeeellllll, that’s gonna be a big problem because I know nothing about this sort of thing.
Keeping my fingers crossed that the finished product doesn’t have “AMATEUR” stamped all over it LOL.
But, I’m not gonna worry about all that yet. I always believe in crossing that proverbial bridge when I get to it.
It’s a sad thing what Conny said during the meeting, that most people who volunteer to help out only want the excuse to parade around in a beautiful costume on that night. They’re not really interested in what needs to be done before the big night.
They can sure use all the help that they can get, especially with finding sponsors. I already have a few parties in mind to approach, but I won’t be able to do anything yet until I get the sponsors proposal.
Meanwhile, thank you, Eleen for giving me the push to take it up. You always believe that I can move mountains if I put my mind to it. Muaks!
