Jeezzz, Heli... that sounds like the Bay Bridge. We used to give away everything (to the anger of us who work here) - shut it down, get stepped on, hand s**t off the bridge, trash all over, escort duty for nothing, you name it. Finally ended when they were filming "Goerge of the Jungle" a few years back, and they hung a mannequin from the main cable as an SFX... we had 3 or 4 accidents and a number of calls about a guy hanging himself from the cables of our bridge. And why weren't we there??!!??
Now they use common sense. They still shoot here, but they're way restricted down from the idiotic antics of some of these HWAMFSOB's... and WE hold the trigger to shut them down when they get a case of stupiditis.
BTW... how you been??

Forgot this one from the F*RD Motor Company on Wednesday:
HWD's: You mean we have to clean up all the cigarette butts, food scraps, pieces of kleenex, Gatorade tops and rake out all the footprints and restore this to what is was before we got here? That's not fair.
Heli: Yes you do and that's just tough shit.

Yep, just point to the permit stipulations hat they signed after I went over it and then say:Martiansky wrote:DId you really say just, NO to them or did you have to support your answers?
No
Hell, I shut down a feature film crew in February who's daily budget was in excess of 200K. I have the final say. They were pissed but the resource comes first.

Burning Man says "NO" a lot to people wanting to film at the event. This is why I'm so surprised at the Discovery Channel thing. Speaking of which <shameless plug for the website> check this out: http://www.savebrc.org
Oh, and can I get a carrot juice please?
