Terry,
1). I have never heard such talk but maybe I haven't for obvious reasons so I cannot really comment.
2). Whilst we were at BB, the creative few of us certainly actually felt the opposite. That being - resentment and jealousy. But again I can understand that too.
3).We were chosen or regarded (rightly or wrongly) as being the best UK 'shooters' available at the time. Not our fault we were thought of this way and kinda nice to wanted to be honest (makes a change).
4). We were offered good money and what we thought was a kind of job security (how wrong we were). Who wouldn't take that ?

Dave I wont discount there being lealousy and resentment but I find that very dismissive of the real issues where customers complaining were concerned.
If you cant see beyond motives of jealousy and resentment then you cant see the picture as it really presents itself really can you?
Are you sayin git was all hunky dory and no one had any claim to issue with them?
If you were lead to believe you were that great then why arent you still working for them?
There's got to be more of a reason why you are being shunned by everyone Dave. Your bitterness betrays your anger on this but yet, I see other people who have been around just as long as you still doing stuff and not with Blue Bird either
Maybe its your negative and angry attitude that puts people off employing you. I mean you no harm and like you loads but even I've seen that you are taking the angry man to an art form in itself
Look whose talking huh? !laugh!
No one wants to work with a miserable angry git. Its not conducive to shooting porn no matter how proffesional you see yourself

I didn't realise you were talking about customers Terry. I thought you were talking about industry people like Dave. As for those customers well we shot two years content whilst I was there and they only started the website as I was kicked out so we 'the crew' never ever had any contact with any customers. I have like you just witnessed the odd rant on here.
You know very well why I was kicked out. Why mention it.
Shunned by everyone is over the top Terry, more like there ain't no work out there. All I emphasize with my 'rants' is that I feel I have the knowledge, ability and experience to as good a job as those that are shooting regular for some very good companies that pay well. All I get from such companies is useage as a tog or cameraman for their 'in' producers/directors. What is wrong with me 'blowing my own trumpet' exactly ? If this is the wrong place to do so then sure I'll stop !
And as for the angry git syndrome. You have never ever worked with me and most that have know I'm a laugh on set and always have been. Sure i don't suffer fools gladly but most of my angry rants are just my sense of piss take (Derek & Clive) humour.

Not just customers Dave. I hear the odd rant from others who have worked there. I'm more a listening ear. I take it on board. But when several people pipe up you know its more than just an individual gripe.
Again ,Ive seen their views get waysided by the usual accusation of jealousy and resentment and it annoys me that people just cant acccept a legitimate complaint for what it is
