I agree Maria. Wish I’d made it
I’m seriously thinking that maybe this sort of thing is something GiveABrick could out together though. I love using these videos but it would be even better if we had our own so we’d be promoting the charity at the same time. Thank for giving me something else to ponder on 
And thanks for stopping by. Great gravatar. Are those your legs? I’m very envious if so

I’ve been trying to find someone who can make a 2min youtube video for another site I run, but have had no luck. Music and pictures can reach people in ways that words can’t, weather there inspirational or info based.
The legs are not mine
mines are better!!

Depending on what you want, my brother in law might be able to help you. He’s the man I’m going to talk to about video plans for Give A Brick. He did the cartoons at the top and side but he’s also pretty nifty with videos too so I’ll have a word with him.
As for legs, I’m jealous and puzzled. Why not use your own?

The cartoons are great, very talented brother! (is that enough suckin up?) All we’re looking for is some screen shots and music, and we would write something for wording. Nothing elaborate or difficult.
As for the legs, maybe I should use my own, need to get a bit of fake tan though.

I’m sure he could do that in exchange for a brick. They only cost a quid
Seriously though, I’ll ask him when I see him at the weekend. I’m sure he could easily do that.

I’ll buy ten bricks and re-tweet all your posts. I would do that anyway. Thanks Eleanor.

You don’t need to buy ten. But we really appreciate the Twitter love. I’m seeing him on Sunday so will let you know what he says. I’m sure if he can do it he will

Eleanor,
Thank you for sharing this; I could do with a longer version for meditation. Very peaceful and restful. As already said music and pictures mean a great deal together.

Based on the result of the conversation I’m having with my bro-in-law on Sunday, it may be that a longer version is something GAB could serve up. I’ll let you know how things develop.

Love the idea of videos! Perhaps I should think about re-energising my Blender stuff (3d animation) If it seems like something you would like, I could perhaps make a character (brickie?) what do you think? Also think of a better name!

That would be awesome Roy. Thank you
Having seen how much cool stuff is on YouTube, I’m very keen for us to start putting together something of our own. Dad has loads of beautiful photos which would be great for some inspirational videos (haven’t asked him yet mind 
) but I’d love us to have some funny clips too.
Wow, in the words of Hannibal, I love it when a plan comes together
