This was the Tiny Ad for me on this post: Sepp Holzer's 3-in-1 Permaculture documentaries

Would you like it as reward? early bird or $1 level?

Here is my first pass at rewards:

$1 THANKS
$10 CANDY
$65 ZOOM the full event as 360p streaming
   - maybe "all the zoom recordings we have - unedited"
$100 GLORY: the full event as HD streaming
   - 10% trimmed out
   - sound balancing
   - clearer images for the slides
   - other editing polishing tricks
   - plus your name on all the vids

$200 tiny download

$300 jumbo download

$400 goofballs



....  seems like we should add something at a $40 level, but I can't think of what.  Maybe it is better without adding something at a $40 level.

Would it be easier (if you can hear them well enough without the adjusting) if you simply added each question as a "text slide"? (I'm not sure of the techno term.)

I need to boost the aux mic inputs to hear what is said, so it wouldn't be much easier to provide "captioning".

please add Helen's Power Point Presentations with the Master Gardener DVD.  I attended online, but would love to have a copy.  Some slides were hard to read on screen.

Note that there will be no DVD.  Zero DVD stuff.

I get the impression that the slides are crystal clear in the new HD stuff.  Jeff, would you say the slides are clear in the HD stuff?

Yes, the slides are much clearer on the HD video.

Would you consider having Utilitarian Permies.com Mugs? Maybe 100 turned mugs(made at WL) for the $200 or $250 level?

Also, I believe Sepp Holzer 3 in 1, should be at the $10 candy level not $1. Just my opinion.

I'd love to have a lathe here on the property but as of now we don't. Great idea though.

I think Adam's offering to contribute mugs of his making.

Adam, what a lovely offer!  I know that Paul prefers not to do physical rewards and based on the "NO DVD" comment and the higher-than-expected shipping costs on a recent book Kickstarter, I'd be surprised if this would be a go.

Thank you. It was worth a try. I did see the 'no dvd' message. Maybe I can just donate my time and the individuals in charge can decide whether to keep for use at WL or sell as merch? I still would like to make them on site.
