QuickDraw 0 #2 February 3, 2003 Please don't post stuff like this in the incidents area. This post will probably moved into the talkback forum anyway. Thanks. -- Hope you don't die. -- I'm fucking winning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QuickDraw 0 #3 February 3, 2003 Hi Alice, just been looking at your site, i have seen a few of them programs myself. Any luck yet with potential stories ? This is the site btw. http://www.zigzag.uk.com -- Hope you don't die. -- I'm fucking winning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skreamer 1 #4 February 3, 2003 There was just a discussion about this in a thread in the Photography forum. From what I read there, seems you want to be careful what material you give the TV types (they want sensation and we don't want the sport being portrayed in a negative way). You also need to make sure what your rights are once they have the material (ie if they were to sell it on to another show, or release it as part of a DVD). According to quade the going rate is $700US per minute or any part thereof, which seems reasonable. Of course, if they want comedy they could always use my premature exit...
