After a few technical problems on Saturday, which we always intended to use as an experiment, the Block Stack crew was busy on Sunday morning setting up our three cameras, and equipment for editing and recording the game and the live commentary. At the end of the day we took orders for videos, which cost £10 each. Our aim for the weekend was to see if there was demand for a video, and to see if it was possible to produce something professional on a limited budget and little experience. I think every one who came up and saw what we were doing would agree that the output was professional, all of the players at Warwick also proved that there is plenty of demand. I’d like to thank the Block Stack team, Martin Cross (Editor), Ian Duckling (Camera and Technical) Andy Brown (Camera and Technical) and our guest camera men Jamie (Bears) and Graham(Baboom) for their silky skills. Thanks also to Tim and Cat from Mwnci and all the team captains for their help with players names, to everyone who parted with money to support the venture, and finally to Meg and the Bears for their tolerance, support, and encouragement. We originally planed to edit the tournament down to 90 minutes but we figured that you guys know how to use a fast forward button so you can do your own editing. As a result the tape now include 5-12 minute sections of the last four semis and at least 8 minutes of all the finals including most of the Grand Final, we also tacked on some interviews from around the tournament. Final total 2h 30mins. A snip at only £10. If you’d like to order a video please send a cheque for £10 payable to Tom Styles to: 151b Main Street, Woodborough, Nottingham, NG14 6DD Don’t forget to enclose your return address and an email address so we can confirm your money has arrived. We aim to send out the videos within ten working days of receiving your money. If you’d like to invite us to your tournament (we can’t promise), or would like to contact us about anything else, please feel free to write to blockstack@hotmail.com Regards to all, Tom Styles (Producer and Commentator) _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
