Traveller Report post Posted August 26, 2009 Hi everybody! First off, my apologies for this having absolutely squat to do with saddles or leather working (although there is a saddle in the video, but it's not center stage). I've worked in television for 20 years and got tired of the long hours and short contracts that were inevitably followed by long periods of unemployment filled with desperate searches for the next contract of possibly even longer hours... you know how it goes! Anyway, I've started up my own production company and this is my first marketing video. I won't be doing strictly horses (any leather workers out there looking for a fabulous, professionally-produced video? ). My website is still under construction but once it's done, it'll be at www.pebblebeachproductions.com So, without further ado, here goes... Thanks!

D.A. Kabatoff Report post Posted August 26, 2009 The video looks great Joanne! Congratulations on taking the reins in these tough economic times, hope the new company works out for you. Is that the Friesen breeder you see from highway 99 when you are heading into White Rock? Darc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Traveller Report post Posted August 26, 2009 Thank you, Darc! The stallion is from a small Friesian breeding farm, not the big one on Highway 99. Lisa used to have a stallion from that farm but he died this spring (equine influenza gone horribly wrong, they believe), and this is her new guy. Friesian's aren't really my thing but I have to admit that he's quite spectacular! I also have some training videos lined up for the fall. I did one for a friend, Kevan Garecki, which is also on YouTube (here's that link: ), and we're meeting next week to work out a series of videos for his horse hauling company. He was moving Traveller for me and since Trav hasn't spent a lot of time in a trailer, we thought he'd make a good subject for a training video. Plus I'm writing for websites. I'm currently putting the finishing touches on copy for a warmblood farm in Illinois that came to me courtesy of a local web builder I know. So between all these little contracts, plus the occasional television contract (I have the Variety Children's Charity Lottery Home contract for ads that run on Global TV), I hope to hobble together a decent living. Fingers crossed! Thanks again, Darc. I'm glad you liked it! Joanne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
