Here's the video Dragaz n I made for fly by night 2006. We thought it sucks big time, but apparently the rest of the world doesn't think so.
I felt bad ringing my friend up at the last minute to ask him to help us out with voice-acting. He awkwardly turned down the request at the end.
I'm a strong adovcator of not ringing up friends because you need something from them, be it companionship, for advice or just plain abusing whatever talents/skills they have which you don't. ( Which happens to me alot. 'Leon, hey you are good at video right?' 'hey leon, you know the market rate for video people right?' 'hey leon, long time never see, can you help me do a motion graphics stuff for my company's presentation at the retreat, treat you dinner later mans.' )
Gee. Will you still treat me dinner just because I'm your friend AND if i turned down your request to do the 'motion graphics' presentation? Oh yeah, you'd rather go clubbing with that hot colleague of yours, that makes more sense hombre.
Do something noble today. Call your friend and ask him/her how you may be of assistance to him/her.
