Re: the DVD'S
 
It really has been taken out of our hands. The problem is that Cormac commutes from Tallaght on occasion and isn't on campus as regularly as Joey, despite him living on Res. I would like Joey to take the DVD's to his apartment and keep them there. Can we get in touch with Cormac about this? Posters should also be put up. Cormac has posted on 'Life' to attract interest from Alumni and they have also been e-mailed regarding this. To be perfectly honest, I think Laura hasn't done herself any favours by going through Bob (no offence) as he's no longer the DRAMA chair. This fact has to be ironed out to EVERYONE. There is now a new committee in charge of things and we do them our way. Steve, if you want to send out an introductory 'Announce' mail, simply announcing the new committee and giving a little teaser of things to come next year- incorporating the message for interested members in having ideas for shows next year...? Can we get trailers on Bebo? It would be good. Also, can Conor add this DVD news on our homepage- 7 euro- all members- a photo from the show/or the poster from the show- and a quick message like "Due to phenomenal demand, DCU DRAMA have limited copies of their brilliantly received musical, "Guys and Dolls", on sale now. Please contact " insert Joey's e-mail address here" and "Cormac's e-mail here" for details of how to get your copy! Move fast though- these are selling VERY quickly! Joey, this sound alright to you? You think you have the time to dole out DVD's to people and liase with Cormac on picking them up from him? Can we also put up the details of the DVD- chapter selection/ inlay/ official DCU DRAMA packaging/ credits/optional menus/etc? And how about "comments" from famous people on the musical...? Like, "a riveting, rip-rorous tour-de-force"- Roger Ebert or what The College View said about it, An Tarbh, Flashback, etc? I think  Liana could maybe look into the poster side of things...a nice glossy re-hash of the show poster but utilising the same things that the publications said about the show...? www.collegeview.com has the College review and Bob wrote the review of the show for An Tarbh. Myself and himself also have copies of the Flashback that we're mentioned in. Also, the usual things like price, contact details and the fact that it's a DVD with special features, blah, blah, blah...This okay, Liana?
 
Get back to me with your take on things...

hey guys
 
as you know no lenox and cormac took the dvd issue into their own hands. this slightly contradicts our plans to have liana and joey drive the boat on the whole dvd scheme. lennox fowarded her message to bob and asked him to send it out to announce drama. bob assumed that that was what we decided at committee  last night and did as lennox asked. so basicaly were lucky she chose the price we decided on last night ( 7 euro ) the only key difference is that she put cormac as the contact for selling the dvds as apposed to joey selling them out of his apartment.
so i dont know if its better to leave it as is and have cormac give joey the dvds to sell  out of his apartment once cormac has taken all the orders. either way i think it should of been lianas and joeys job to come up with a selling strategy e.g posters in the hub , trailers on bebo etc. although this can still be done.
 
opinions?
