Topic: Californian Brickfilmers Meet-up: Pics n' stuff up

As small number of you know, my video Megaphone, which is set at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, is going to be shown at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival in January! After I released that video, Parry Gripp (who wrote the song) sent me a message telling me he liked so much he would like to get it shown at the festival, and that he would like me to fly out and see it! Of course I said yes, and I've been in regular contact with him ever since.

So, as you've probably guessed, I thought this would be an ideal opportunity to get together with some other brickfilmers. I'll be there from January 27 to February 2 and, because I'm not from there I don't known where would be a good place (California's pretty big, and obviously I'm going to be in Santa Barbara).

If you're not anywhere nearby, please don't post anything along the lines of "oh I wish I could go but I'm so far away", which is what these threads tend to get filled up with.

Thank you! *crosses fingers*

-------

The gathering(s) will be at Hotel Santa Barbara on Monday January 31 and/or Wednesday February 2, depending on the response. If you can come, please let me know as soon as possible.

It's about maybe an hour or two drive to Santa Barbara, BUT you never know, me and my family might take a ROAD TRIP. It's a possibility, bro. It'd be great to see ya, and your film on the big screen! mini/bigsmile

Re: Californian Brickfilmers Meet-up: Pics n' stuff up

I'm most likely coming.

And I'm pretty sure doing this was my idea. mini/cat

Just wondering, where are we supposed to meet up? Do we want to get an exact place or should we all just meet up at the film festival? Also, how would we find each other?

Re: Californian Brickfilmers Meet-up: Pics n' stuff up

I'm thinking we just show up and start shouting: "I'M LOOKING FOR HAZZAT" That's what I'll be doing, anyway. mini/tongue

Re: Californian Brickfilmers Meet-up: Pics n' stuff up

I'll do that too. That way I can draw attention to myself.

Re: Californian Brickfilmers Meet-up: Pics n' stuff up

Just a reminder.

Re: Californian Brickfilmers Meet-up: Pics n' stuff up

I'm pretty sure that was a joke, Jargon. haha.

Re: Californian Brickfilmers Meet-up: Pics n' stuff up

Im 3 hours away.  Grr.  This needs to happen in Los Angeles mini/sunnies

Re: Californian Brickfilmers Meet-up: Pics n' stuff up

I'm around 1-2 hours away from that area.

But it's possible, it'd be cool to meet REAL LIFE BRICKFILMERS OMG. AND HAZZAT, WHO IS NORMALLY IN THE U.K.? THIS IS A ONCE IN A LIFE TIME CHANCE...err...I mean...

Yeah it's possible. I will join Filmyguy and Justkidden in shouting, along with having big signs pointing down at me with big bright lights saying "BRICKFILMER FRIEND" and "LOOKING FOR HAZZAT". And then to be sure you find us, me and Justkidden will start singing "Macho Man" while pointing at filmyguy in front of thousands of people to make him feel uncomfortable. So follow the sound of the song and we'll be there! mini/cat


JK, you and me need to start practicing.

Into the darkness once more. I walk into the unknown. To a far better life than I've ever known.

Re: Californian Brickfilmers Meet-up: Pics n' stuff up

Wow, thanks for the response so far everyone! I'm assuming the 29th would be the best, seeing as that's the Saturday between the dates. I've got no idea where we should actually meet - would we find each other in a street or meet in a coffee shop or something? Ideally we'd go back to someone's house and make the ultimate brickfilm collaboration, everyone seems to live pretty far away so maybe I'll take my brickfilming equipment with me...

Re: Californian Brickfilmers Meet-up: Pics n' stuff up

Up to 2 hours away... I *might* make it.
