Ok, we start production in the morning on this. I will be photo documenting the progress as well.
We are looking into entering an agreement with the Tadpole Foundation to donate a portion of the proceeds ($1-$2) of each sale to their "Off the Streets and On the Creeks" program focusing on getting at risk youth interested in outdoor activities. This is a unique opportunity to reach out to the community. It will allow sponsors to utilize their investment as a tax write off.

We will be submitting this video for product review to several large outfitters for sale in there stores and online which will give any participating sponsors coverage in extremely large markets. For those interested no money will be collected until review of the finished product.

Well, production started this morning. Going well so far. Going to start a new thread on the actual mod/restore.

 

[Nevillizer]

We have finished the intro, and the first two segments. All is going well. 100 degree heat this weekend was not fun. We have a lot to do prior to moving onto the next segment. I'll keep updating. Should have some new pictures posted on the Mod thread late tonight or early tomorrow.

[Nevillizer]
