Title: Ideas for future shows
Post by: lucasclones on August 15, 2012, 04:03:23 AM: We are pretty booked up for this year guys but we are always open for ideas. Post your thoughts and suggestions here!

Post by: Tamer on August 15, 2012, 02:10:46 PM: What a good first post. I look forward to seeing what folks would like us to talk about.

Post by: Rogue82 on August 20, 2012, 11:59:23 AM: I'd love to hear a casting roundtable 2 with some of the points briefly mentioned at the end of the first one, Like how to deal with air bubbles and a bit more on weapons casting. Also if any of the guys have any information on casting joints.

another podcast that would be interesting would be a photography and effects roundtable. How to take great photo's, what to consider when compositing into photo novels etc.

And finally how about a vehicle enhancement and scratch-build roundtable. Adding lights, kit-bashing etc

just my 2 cents worth

Hope you guys get a break in getting the RTs going again. Very cool to listen to these casts.

I finally found an app which plays CAFN as well as Forcecast, BCA and AFB, so I'm up to speed actually :)

Sounds like a great idea for a roundtable!
Title: Re: Ideas for future shows
Post by: Clonehead on February 03, 2013, 07:17:27 AM: I like the sound of that as well. A back to basics episode, if you will.
Title: Re: Ideas for future shows
Post by: Tamer on February 03, 2013, 07:46:06 AM: Good idea. I will add that to the list.

I second that motion!
Title: Re: Ideas for future shows
Post by: Clonehead on April 24, 2013, 06:13:57 AM: Yep, that is a great idea. I can imagine a gaggle of you guys together. Sounds like trouble, LOL!
Title: Re: Ideas for future shows
Post by: krztfr on April 24, 2013, 04:53:56 PM: You know more and more guys are getting into it so why not have them share....Sculpting Roundtable!
And if you can't pull off a scratchbuild roundtable than interviews with Delaton and C130IM would be awesome

Cool deal and do a what do you need to do to get five oh one approval show.

Post by: Luke Sprywalker on April 30, 2013, 05:57:14 AM: We have talked about a show covering commissions. I think Rat Fink would be great to hear from again. Would love to hear from Jamie Follis again, he does commissions and for some really cool poeple. I do commissions, Chad does them, several of us here at the Yards. Don't know if Dayton would be interested but would like for him to chime in if he could. He has done a few now, he sculpted Thomas Edison for Stephen Hayford's diorama. It would be very interesting and cool if you could get people who buy customs as well.
Title: Re: Ideas for future shows
Post by: Tamer on April 30, 2013, 12:29:17 PM: I like that topic of comissions covering dos and don'ts for both the comissioner and the comissionee.
Title: Re: Ideas for future shows
Post by: krztfr on May 01, 2013, 10:47:57 PM: A vehicle custom show would be good...how about a roundtable just on how to take excellent pictures?

I like the picture idea. And how to create a photo studio in which to take your pictures covering lighting, camera settings, etc.
Title: Re: Ideas for future shows
Post by: krztfr on May 05, 2013, 09:36:25 PM: Oh how about roundtable custom soft goods assesories and cloth clothing all the things that are icing on the custom cake
Title: Re: Ideas for future shows
Post by: Tamer on May 06, 2013, 02:51:34 AM: Just a ton of great ideas. First thing Chad and I are going to do is getting our CAFN Page set so that all new updates on it update a new RSS Feed and XML gets to ITunes. We have just got to get that done. We want it all housed here so we don't have any more problems as far as sites crashing and what not.
Title: Re: Ideas for future shows
Post by: Luke Sprywalker on May 17, 2013, 08:56:07 AM: That is very understandable.

That is very understandable.

It take it as a great compliment that folks are very interested in ensuring this continues. It is great inspiration.

Thanks folks for giving us your ideas and trust me we are far from being finished. We are time deprived, but definitely gonna push this up to the front of the que here real soon.
