Oh ok, well welcome to our forum Eric. An introduction would have been nice before you decided to spam your dreams of a web show, but whatever.
Does your web show have a name or a website yet & if so, whats the address? Just curious, have you filed your business license yet? Have you written your business plan yet? Whats your companies Mission Statement? Where is your companies office located? Do you plan to go live with your show in 2013? Whats your hook & how are you planning to retain your audience? What are your marketing plans? Who designed your website? What editing software & equipment does your pro staff use? Are you filming in HD or SD? What level of camera are you using, consumer, prosumer or professional level cameras? If I did decide to join your staff, whats in it for me? Do you plan to attract & attain corporate sponsorship for the company & its staff?
How do you intend to make it worth my time to work for you? Will I receive a pay check from your company or am I a volunteer, simply sending you my hard earned video footage? What do you offer that I wouldnt necessarily be able to achieve on my own.
Once you actually take the time to answer these questions here, Ill then take you seriously. Otherwise, if you ignore my post & do not respond, Ill simply consider this to be more spam.
EDIT: I just reviewed your profile & see that youre only 15 yrs old. Youve got alot of growing up to do before you try to make this dream a reality. Hopefully some of the questions Ive asked will give you some insight into what it will take to actually make it happen. Good luck!

Sorry guys, let me introduce myself. My name is Eric Sowash I am 15, and I have been hunting since age 10. I have killed 8 deer since I started and I killed my biggest buck this year, a 120 inch 8 point with my bow. I have a great passion for the outdoors, and for filming. Now back to the web show. I was not starting it as a business right away, just as a free web show. I am currently using the Full HD Cannon Vixia HFR 300 and the GoPro Hero full HD. I use Adobe Premier elements 10 as my editing program. I am writing letters to 20 different companies asking for sponsorship. I already have a local company, EM Paracord on board with me. They sell paracord bow wrist slings, gunslings, and more. Check them out at emparacord.weebly.com. The name for the show is Adrenaline Outdoors, view the YouTube page here. www.youtube.com/user/EMParacord?feature=mheeI just want to get more experience through this because I am going to attend college for Videography and hopefully be the cameraman for hunting shows. I was also featured on Michigan Out of Doors, a TV show which is featured across the whole state. Check that out at www.michiganoutofdoorstv.com/shows.cfm?VideoID=224 Again I am sorry the way I barged in here and posted this. Let me know if you have any more questions, -Eric |

Welcome aboard Eric. Its cool to see the youth taking such an interest in the outdoors. Sounds like ya got your head on straight. Keep after your dreams & congrats on the 120" also. I didnt mean to come off quite as harsh as my reply may have read, but we get a fair amount of spam here, but then again, I am just an old grump.
Your video project sounds cool. I hope youll share your outdoor adventures here. Filming is a tough gig, but its well worth the effort, especially if youre backed by corporate sponsorship. But youll get out of it, what you put into it.

I like it allot, it has 52x zoom, so that is nice. What state do you hunt in? I am from Northern Michigan, not too many big bucks but I make the most of it.

I hunt central Illinois. I asked about the 300 because I own the G10. Canon really makes a great camera dont they. 8)

Im on the east side near lake huron. Wish you were closer i know a few guys in the industry like Mike Avery and his camera man. I hunt Alcona and Iosco counties primarily but also do some hunts in other states. Good luck with your show looks like you got a good start.
