Me + Southeast Asia + other people’s video footage = FAME
Looks like my recent 500GB external hard drive purchase was worth the investment; M.’s Ho Chi Minh Trail documentary shoot has just been extended, and God willing, I’ll still get to edit it once they get all the footage — 60 hours and counting. He just wrote from Vientiane, Laos:
> The more we get, the bigger this trip gets. We leave
in a couple days to Cambodia, to pick up the trail
through the eastern highlands, then on to Vietnam to
try to interview some of the old guys there. And we’re
planning a cross-country road trip this summer to find
a bunch of vets, pilots, etc who served here. Going to
need one hell of a hard drive and far too many months
once this whole thing is over. Photo editing, writing,
film editing… Sure we’ll look back to our hardest
days on the trail as a walk in the park after a couple
months pop-riveted to our computers. Can’t wait to
show you some of this…I’ll talk to you from Saigon.
