I'm hoping I make this thing, while we were shooting interviews with students we ran out of people so I got to do one.

They were also missing a camera guy, so I got to film the team meeting with Petrino then got to shoot a film session with McGee and the qbs. It was awesome.

Something I find interesting about the promos...we see the players go down to the students camped out on Thursday night and hand out pizzas...but if the students did the same thing to the players it would be an NCAA violation.


The rule book like the tax code needs a large overhaul while making it more simplistic.

How do you do that with 24,000 to choose from?

I'm glad you helped out and I hope the experience was a blast but good lord their production staff sounds awful.. MAJOR props to the film editor and special effects crew.

I went up to over a hundred people around the union and I would say, "I'm with Espn and we're shooting a documentary about Arkansas' quarterbacks, would you like to answer a couple questions on camera?"

I got three (3) people to do it.

Really, I couldn't believe how many people didn't want to be on tv. One guy even said "I would man but I got this study group." OMFG

We needed people like you that actually know something about Wilson. We ended up getting mostly sorority chicks that all said the same thing.

Most People are shy and don't want to be on Camera.. Honestly, 7 or so out of 100 isn't a bad ratio.

I'm no expert but I own a small film company out here in Los Angeles as a hobby. Therefore, I have appreciation for good production.

So far the lighting, director, editor and special effects guys are good.

I'm disappointed in the production crew as you described and I think the sound quality is poor. Overall a good production but only 10 days at Arkansas kinda hacks me off a tad, ha. It's better than nothing and I'm glad we are getting the publicity from ESPN.

That's the exciting thing about being on tv or in film as an interviewee or actor, seeing if you made the cut.

How will we know if you made it or not?

There's your problem - you were asking people at the Union. Normal students don't hang out there, especially ones that know anything about football. But with the 80% of students there being Asian exchanges, you could have probably gotten some help with your differential equations homework though, or a good outline for Organic Chem II.

When it airs we'll start a watch party thread, if I'm in it I'll say hey I was the dude that said____. Can't remember what I said right off hand. But I think my chances are good because we didn't get very many good sound bites.

I wound up on the news with Aaron Peters a couple of years ago because the same thing happened at one of our practices. He went down the side of a practice field trying to get people to answer some questions and I was like "hell yeah here's what I think" but most people were too shy to answer

I assumed I'd get cut, but that afternoon my grandma called saying "OH LORDY WAS THAT YOU I SAW ON THE TV?!?!" It really made her day, hah
