[quote BlackX]Can tell you guys are having fun, Gary. I liked the silly intro to ItME Advanced. But I reloaded the video because I thought I must have missed something or it stopped early or....[/quote]
Sorry Rich.. I don't follow you... which video??
We do have a lot of fun... people find the bloopers really funny.
There's nothing like taking the micky out of your mates...
We've nearly finished our shallow water hunting DVD now where we find real goodies with no planting of finds.
I think the honesty really shows when we do the programs. I must admit when we made the first "Exploring The Explorer" the silver dollar was used as a prop and I wasn't very good at hiding the fact. After that we decided everything we do would be "as is" even if we didn't find anything.
The next productions we are going to try and do a lot more in the US... because I do admit a lot of our stuff has been European based.
So if anyone has any suggestion... we are really open to them... because in all honesty we want detectorists to buy the products.
What I have found though is that the English humour is very different than the humor in the USA and some people found me offencive when I was saying things like "to all you Americans out there..." etc. but it wasn't intended. The other side of the coin the Australians and the English really go for each other on the humour side. You cant please everyone... but if its done with good intent I believe it comes across as so.
Ive been to the USA about 6 times now... I was the key note Speaker Tthe Las vegas Conferance for Minelab a few years ago... met alot of your dealers there.... and had a lot of fun. Also met Ralph from SunRay... great guy and very genuine and a man who makes great products too.
By the way... if any of you do upload to the MLOTV site you can win any Minelab detector of your choice... I'm serious... but you have to the September 1st.
Also if the admin of this section want to make their own "advert" or sponsors of this forum I I don't mind putting it up either. The Internet is a huge place and there is enough room for everyone.
All The Best
Gary
