Ed Lain replied to Gary Tompkins's discussion Wanting feedback for brochure"Hi Gary, very nice. Looking at it, though, I think maybe you are using the wrong headline. i would flip-flop the text and make your main headline "Your life story deserves it's own movie on DVD." It explains the service nicely and any…"
Gary Tompkins replied to Travis R. Haley's discussion Do You Do Video Tape Repair?"Hi Travis, if it's a dv video it will be more difficult to repair as it's a digital video format and the time code is embedded on the tape and any break in time code (i.e. break in tape) will be difficult for a player to read. It can be…"

Gary Tompkins replied to Carl Kerttu's discussion Intro, Background, Business Idea -"Hi Carl, the only thing I'd like to add is don't write off the very expensive market as well. If it's high quality and unusual there are a lot of hi-end homes that might want something very beautiful to showcase their plants.

Profile Information
- How did you hear about 48Days.NET, and what do you hope to get out of being a part of this community?
- Kevin Miller told me about it. I hope to learn how to make a business profitable and help others do the same.
- What is your current work situation? Employee, self-employed, generating any income on your own?
- I'm self employed as a graphic designer having spent eight years in a publishing house doing book, DVD, and CD covers as well as ads.
- And then...what is your goal/dream for your work life?
- I am starting a video production company with a focus on making my own information videos and selling them online. My first video launch will is titled "Home Theater Defined" and explains what hi-definition and surround sound is, what you need to buy and where you can cut corners. As a former custom home theater installer and sound engineer I'm in a unique position to answer the many questions I still receive regarding all the formats available.
- How about your personal life? Any specific goals or achievements or dreams you are pursuing (or want to pursue)?
- My calling is my video business. As a single man I can devote much more time to my business without sacrificing my relationships with friends and family.
- What would you say are your strongest talents? How are you 'wired' and what can you offer to the world (it's OK if you don't know yet, but knowing is key to pursuing your dreams!)?
- I love helping people and solving problems. Whatever project I'm working on, whether a book cover, promotional video, or sound equipment question for a church, I love figuring out the best possible solution for them.
- Do you have a website presence anywhere?
- http://www.garowksi.com
- If you have a product or service to promote (now or in the near future) this is your shot to state it! Say all you'd like:
- I've been a life long and passionate hunter. As a result I've started a hunting website where hunters can gather and share their hunting stories through writing, photos, and videos. It's not so much focused on the kill but on the relationships we've built and the memories we create.

- HI everyone, I've recently moved and it's taken 6 weeks to get internet access to my new place so sorry about not keeping in touch as often as I would like. Hopefully things are in order now and I can participate on a more regular basis.

Wendy Manzo said… - Hiya Gary,
Just saying hello. I saw that you are a Graphic Designer. Cool!
I am a visual artist, painting mostly canvases on commission, for fundraising exhibitions, or in creative worship at church.
I have a video of me painting in church that I'd like to edit down from an hour to 3 - 4 mins... yeah I know, big ask, so I may need to call on you soon!
Cheers
Wendy

- Hi Eli, I use Final Cut Pro on a Mac but as far as "Windows Media Server" it's for storing your video and media files for use with a web server, not particularly for home use. Although I'm sure one could configure it for that purpose there are much cheaper options out there for home use, all of which would take quite a bit of technical know-how.

Eli Salem said… - HI Gary, I am not to far from you. Do you have any experience with Windows Media Server? I guess you can put all your movies and pictures on it and TV and run it to your TV.

- I'm crazy about relationships, my video business, music, and hunting—in that order. But really, relationships with my friends and God are the foundation for everything else. Without them the rest seems bland.
