Having problems with message search?
Gary,
Re: potential Bandon location scouting, a brief e-mail. After an inquiry to members was sent via group messages, I responded on the message board along with others. The return response -a blind email-instructs me that I am one of several on a list given to an un-named NYC production company, who may or may not call. Now I have a few questions:
This week I'm attending a member social event with people I may now be potentially bidding against (or who may potentially bid against me) for something we've already discussed together. Can we continue to openly talk about this (potential job) now?
Honestly I'd prefer maintaining (a decent amount) of clarity and congeniality while creating income and interacting with other members. Is anyone interested in a discussion about pooling resources for scouting trips & a planing some scenarios ahead of time? My participation in meetings leads me to believe that proactive and collaborative participation from members on many levels will help generate sustainable income for ourselves and our region. Ultimately I hope we (SOFAT) members will strive to provide 100% quality/satisfaction to this and every other potential production, but I also think we should plan for it to happen.
Sincerely and Lovingly,
Lisa Byrne

Hi,
You are one of several people that responded to the post about scouting in Bandon, so I've forwarded your name along with the others to the production company in NY. As the Executive Director of SOFaT, and not a producer hired to be on the project, my role is to direct interested parties to our SOFaT resources - the group's website and people's individual listings - so that everyone's abilities and experience speak for themselves. They didn't ask me to hire someone, just wanted some names of people who would be available that could do the job.
So perhaps you will hear from them, perhaps you won't. A lot of this research is often preliminary and nothing comes of it.
However, if you do hear from them and even end up with the gig, please let me know.
Regards,
gk
