[artemisia_danst]

is there anyone out here who made a dvd themselves who'd be willing to chat about it with me in pm. i've got a truckload of questions.

i've been searching for older threads on the issues but cant seem to be able to find any.

thanks!

Hmmm... This thread reminded me of an article I saw on Gilded Serpent... To Buy or Not to Buy -

I don't know what sort of info you're looking for, but I thought this was interesting!

I have self-produced 3 DVDs. Ask me :-)

Producing them is one thing. But getting rid of them (= selling) is a completely different story!

I produce my improv instructional series through my public access TV station. I don't know if there's an equivalent in Europe, but it's a great way to do it.

PM me if you'd like to talk.
