Good day, fellow collectors. I have had many mails recently, alot of them from fellow members and collectors on the forum, and would just like to state that I have seen them, but due to me starting a new job last week, I am currently swamped with work for at least another week or so, so I cannot always reply to mails as quickly as I'd want to
So do not worry, I have seen your mails and will reply as soon as possible

The newly created position of executive assistant (Department of Film Collection) to Mr. Bjorgen is now open. Please email your resumé to......oh, wait...there's a delay on that end. Why not post your qualifications in this very thread? Knowledge of Abbott and Costello routines a must.

So you want me to-do-a-job-for-you, ah? Why-ai-ai!
Sadly nothing to do with film this job, I am working as a teacher at the local high school However; as we have "Drama and film" on our lists of subjects for the spring, I am planning to do a Super 8 presentation of some sorts for the students!

That sounds interesting Christian.I used to teach at a special needs school in New Zealand where we could pretty much choose our own themes within reason. I used to do film making with my class every few years. Once, we spent a term watching movies on super 8, link it to all our numeracy, literacy etc and then recreated scenes from them on dvd. I am particularly proud of our version of "The Music Box" which we shot at the High School next door because it had the most perfect steps (and a brilliant Stan and Ollie). I used to have it on Youtube and we got about 40,000 hits but deleted it when I left the school. We also made a lovely short of "A Trip to the Moon", long before "Hugo" brought it back into the limelight.
