[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by ereimer</i> <br /><br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by polizi</i> <br /><br />As my earlier post said this is for us to dicuss what we see and what we think of this project. I dont believe anyone is short changing ModelRailroader on this wonderful idea and project my concern is I simple can not see that much we are too far away. I would like to see the video after completion. Since this is Model related and my post I feel we can critsize as long as we are all nice in how we do it. Letting MRR know what we think and wont might help them understand us the consumer..... <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />i would like to see the video as well , but it's a "dream it plan it build it" video which will only be available to subscribers . i see this as a mistake , this video should sell for $9.95 at bookstores , magazine stands , at hobby shows (even non-railroad shows) , at hobby shops etc. so people who don't subscribe to MR get a chance to see what building a layout is like . selling this video only to subscribers is preaching to the faithful , some may get some useful techniques out of it , but anyone who subscribes has read about everything they're going to do in this video already , and many have done it themselves (and much more!) <br /> <br />i see the online version of this as a 'trailer' or sneak preview of what the video is going to be . maybe MR thinks i'm going to subscribe so i can buy this video . in my case they're wrong , i've been buying MR for 20 years and never had the desire to subscribe <br /> <br />MR advertised this as live video . it's not . it's a still shot every 12 seconds or so (that's what i'm getting right now anyway) <br /> <br />and the camera position ... too far away , bad angle , and the real camera and cameraman get in the way of what's happening <br /> <br /> <br />so far i'd say <br />A+ for concept <br />D for execution <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />You dont have to be a magizine subcriber you can get signed up for the videos and buy the ones you like I have signed up just waiting for the first to arrive. I think the camera position should be changed so we can actually see I dont care a lick about that camera guy. Oh well I guess like bergie said you cant make everyone happy!
