A little assistance needed for little magnet

[Kyle]

My oldest daughter is auditioning for a show on The Discovery channel called Adventure Camp. We sent a video in of her, filled out a questionare, yada, yada, yada. Well, the show called and said we sent the video in the wrong format(Hi8mm). They wanted us to reshoot the video in DVD or miniDV format. Well, therein lies the problem. We don't own a video camera, muchless one that shoots in either of those formats( they also will accept VHS). On top of that, she has been out of town for 2 weeks so we couldn't have re-shot it anyway. The show really wants her to shoot another one, and they are extending the deadline for her. SHe won't get back home until the night before we leave for Grayton( Friday). Do any of you sowalers have a camera little magnet can borrow for a short hour or so this coming weekend? I would be forever in your debt if you do. I have also sent a PM to jdarg telling her all this so if one of you can help us out, contact her and she can get ahold of us. Thanks in advance,
Chick Magnet
P.S If you have any cool ideas for the video, we are all ears. The show is a wildlife-type show that will be shot in SeaWorld next summer. It has to be about 5 minutes long, and show little magnet "in action". She is 12. Thanks again.

Congrats! Maybe you can shoot the video at Gulf World Marine Park as a backdrop even better call ahead and see if they will allow her to interact with the show animals like the sea lion, parrots, dolphins?

Sure you'll find someone willing to offer a loaner in Sowal, but have you also looked into having the current format transferred to the one that they are looking for?

Good luck to her...sounds really cool!

I have the same type of video cam, it shoots Hi8. We have to have our camera hooked up to the tv to view. I'd love to have a little DVD cam...

Great idea! I will run that by her.

Keep the ideas coming. The more to choose from, the better.

Chickmagnet's daughter is on of Will's best friends, and a really great kid. If we had this kind of camera, we would do it. So who wants in on some movie making fun next week??

Thanks for the well wishes. It would be a really neat thing for her.

That must have been an imposterbecause there is only 1 chick magnet, and I am him.;-) I won't be in sowal until this Saturday.
