What type of shots are you looking for?

I have a bunch of footage (widescreen DV) from train shows, although I don't
think there is a whole lot that is actually 'of' AFOL's, it's mostly of the
layout (drive bys, fly throughs, train cams, etc.).  I'll have to go home and
take a look again.

ParLUGment was also recently interviewed on the new RO -
http://www.parlugment.org/archive/temp/breakfast.wmv.  There was a segment about
our Winterlude layout on the news as well, which we haven't captured to
electronic format yet.  They obviously own the copyright to these though.  Shhh,
don't tell anyone I posted the interview. :)

DV is perfect, it's the one format I can eat into the NLE really easily.

Shots of layouts, trains going around, robots smacking each other, people
building, crowds smiling, would be perfect.  Media appearances would be great
too.  The problem is one of getting stuff to me.  A lot of people have already
mailed me and said "I've got X Y and Z, how should I get it to you?"  So far my
best option is to pick it up from them at BrickFest, cause I don't have a budget
to start sending out mailers for them to mail tapes to me.

The other thing I've been mulling over is a more in depth AFOL documentary that
has been on my mind for almost two years now.  rtlToronto folk are probably sick
of me asking them to answer interview questions all these years on camera.  But
I think it's time someone sat down and made some sort of quirky poke into the
AFOL world for outsiders.  The best description is like Roger Nygard's
"Trekkies" or the "Word Wars" Scrabble documentary but I'd hope it would be a
lot more positive than that.
