I have two quick updates I thought I would share with the rest of the class.

First off, the obvious, I'm sure you've all noticed already the 'donation' image to the left, I figured if the 'thermometer' approach has worked for, well just about everything else, then it's worth a shot. Actually, I worked on this image over a month ago, and for whatever reason, decided not to put it up. Then the other night Amanda suggested to me that I should make "one of those thermometer thingys" for proj:pedal's funds and I was reminded of my earlier efforts.

Secondly, I'm quite happy to announce that I've uploaded a fourth version of proj:pedal's budget outline [which you can find under 'the production / financial' drop-menu to the left] which, for the first time, falls under the $8,000 mark. It's actually around $500 below, while snooping around eBay I managed to find a steadicam & vest that was priced about $1,000 less than the one I was eye-balling before, actually at this very moment, they are having a Christmas special sale - which knocks $450 off the original price. And I dumped the over-priced underwater camera case, a homemade housing worked in the past for me, and it will have to work again this time around, I just can't justify spending that kind money on something that will only be used a handful of times.
