Sorry - I'm hung up on this...and since it's late and I'm tired, I'm over-analyzing, HAHA! I think that Mr Documentary Guy's 14 or so posts haven't given him the time to realize that some of us aren't as dumb as we look
Well after keeping silent for almost 3 months my negotiations are almost complete and I can speak about it.
Oooooh - topsecret, shhhhh!
For my first real Documentary I am will have full Access to the Disney World Resorts. I will be staying on Disney property for 6-12 moths. I am going to document everything possible in Disney. But most importantly this is about the parks, the people who work there and the people who visit the parks.
Full access? I think 'ol Michael Eisner still has to check in before just roaming around with new security!
I will stay in Different resorts but mostly staying in the value resorts but will stay in the others during slow times. To offset the cost of me staying in Disney for FREE. I will make my own bed and tidy up the room myself. Not a bad deal.
Wow, that is a heck of a deal! Too good to be true...mousekeeping doesn't cost them $50 a night, they can't afford to give away a room for a year!
We have several ideas in the works for what we want to do. I would like a daily and or weekly video journal on the Disney website but we are still negotiating that. Also might have an office in the old Animation studio building at MGM.
DAMN, I want an office on Disney Property, INSIDE A PARK! And I want to eat up Disney's bandwith with crappy video too! With as tasteful and tidy their site is, I guarantee no schlub is going to get space to upload his PERSONAL comments on things - if it isn't blessed by the mouse, it will not be seen!
I want to be able to follow guests around all day especially those coming to the parks for the first time. I will also document a day in the life of Disney Cast Members from management and on down. But the fun one will be the imaginears.......
If I was a guest, especially a FIRST-TIME guest, I would punch someone in the face if they tried to follow me around the parks with a videocamera - SERIOUSLY! The surveys are enough for me, let alone being harassed all day! And the Imagineers, what few there actually are in Florida, would LOVE to be followed all day too!
I will have a website up this summer. And anyhelp from you guys would be appreciated. What you would like to see would be great.
So, there isn't a website yet because he ran out of money mailing letters! A good documentarian would know what their plan is and not have to survey the public FIRST - wow!
The dates of which I will be there are not confirmed as of yet. Either Sept 1 or Nov 1. I will also have to go thru 1 week Disney Crash Course training.
Not confirmed yet.....riiiiiight. And does "crash course training" mean "Traditions"? You usually know the class you have to take, and since he's not being PAID, he's not an employee.
And Will have my own Directors Coat and Shirt and Disney Name tag.
What the hell is a Directors Coat? And only Cast Members get name tags!
I am not getting paid for this. But Since I love Dinsey I thought it would be well worth it. We are expecting to have 10k hours of footage which I will have help to break down into several small documentary's and a few bigger ones. I would love to get it on the Disney channel.
Wow, 10,000 hours of footage - that's about 416 days, if he filmed 24 hours a day! That's REALLY hard to do in 6-12 months, HAHA!
And yes this will be one giant disney commercial but who cares, it will be fun.
No, they PAY to have Disney Commercials made!:lol:
