Yes, I'm saying he's used to churning out a subpar product. No quality control. Effects mistakes IN THE FINAL CUT! He's relying on his audience to be horny and hungry enough to look past things no person with pride in their own work would release.

Here's who I'd give money to: someone has a plan for a project. THEIR plan. They aren't whoring themselves out to the public looking for ANY idea (each idea having its own technical challenges, requiring different props and funding to accomplish). They have a track record of quality releases -- you can see what they've done and have a reasonable expectation of what they'll produce based. I wouldn't pay to enable someone to get better tools unless they've already proven they can do some amazing stuff with the tools they have. Even then, the profit they make from their releases should have some amount set aside for gradual tool upgrades.

There was this guy on here, RedParrot, produced some *amazing* test footage, had a real good eye and concept. Blew everything of Dave's out of the water. No single-shot, unmoving camera film-making. No terrible editing and cutting. NO MORPHS! He got creative with what he had.

He's had the opportunity for a decade now to create, and all of his releases have had some issue with editing, sound, effects, composition, directing. They just look *bad* even by fetish clip standards.

The problem is not his tools or studio. The problem is Dave. Pay your money to an artist to realize your vision, or go with one of the established outfits who'll be more than happy to do your custom with far more enthusiasm and energy.

This pitch promises the WORLD! Only $15,000 to make it happen!

Look, some of what I write is speculative, but my bottom line is: This is all highly suspicious. Buyer Beware.
