Thanks for all the un/underpaid work y'all! and thanks for 'negotiating'
with the coop Boban, at least it will give of some extra loose for other
expenses, if there are more dvd or eventual need for blueray costs, or
promotion or applying for 'festivals'. if we can play that by ear once
everything else is done and the cp screening set.
Once we know how many dvds we want done we'll be able to make the order
right (and you finalize mastering etc)? i just wanted to see if we need to
do any research or make calls to the dvd duplicating company to have a real
idea of the printing n cases we want will cost. I cannot figure it out from
the website (i'd need to talk with someone n then email the company
questions... or is it clear on your end?)

Hope everyone is ok with the money they'll be getting. please be honest as
I really don't want people to leave this project feeling like they've been
taken advantage of. If there are some concerns I'd like to talk about it
and try to figure out other options.
thanks y'all
