Walk it off stunt man!!

I'm not in the film business, I'm creating films and telling stories because its what I enjoy, and thats why I started it and went to school for it. When I do make a film for money, its with my full creative license.

Talk about a cold point blank shot to the face tonight. Theres a buddy of mine I met when he was a n00b in SL, he had talent and questions which I would answer now and then. Well down the road, I sparked an idea that he wanted to develop on. So he did, and made a little money out of it. Once he got that realization of the fact that a video game can bring you money, the spark of greed kicked in. He would tell me he needed help with one thing, but the real fact is he was using me for my name/background. So pretty much ive been betrayed, not to add he was charging insane amounts of money for things he couldn't do. But was hoping to buy the NSS name and hire us to help him do it. In addition add other artists we know very well, to do his work.

I kinda realized that today, i would love NSS to be a famious name like Red vs Blue, that means doing what you want and for fun, which others just happen to enjoy the hell out of. I don't sell out for money in order to live, I raise money to improve the ideas I have just make them possible. Example is that Ive bought my custom built 4k dollar computer, a professional recording mic, mixing board, and paid 3 years so far on the NSS website, all with money I made from film and editing, with money left over for other equipment. With out doing all that work to raise money for gear, I wouldn't be able to film a full Sim with zero lag, or run the handfuls of programs I do in order to process green screen work faster and more covenant's. To do videos like the "Noob Be Gone" series which we've gotten sooo much positive feedback and thank yous. Or fun videos like the Vonage or MoJo DoJo video.

Its good to finally really know where I stand, even though Ive been doing it all along but never realized it. Guess I just needed to see someone who was all about greed and uses their friends to know exactly what I didn't want.
Off to eat dinner =) the pubs in England have amazing home cooked food and are nothing like bars in the states.

Cheers!
