Mink might be having a good time, but Ella doesn't look too happy.

Gorgeous! I wish we had gotten to see more of Danica smiling. She'll be missed!

I realize that it is unfair to pick on what is presumably a video still, but the picture quality here is pretty bad! I suspect my 4 year old smart phone would have produced a better image than this, and I know my 7 year old point-and-shoot would have. It's great fun to see the behind-the-scenes pics like this, but I just wish you would have used, you know, a camera.

Image quality in general is one of the few categories where I don't feel you are ahead of the pack. Full HD (1080) is common for video downloads these days, and I've even seen 4K starting to appear. I know, resolution isn't everything, and for some watch-and-forget TV episodes I actually prefer 720 to 1080 simply because I don't feel the added size of the latter gives a proportional picture quality benefit for my viewing conditions.

But viewing conditions change, and for my Bluestone videos, I want archive quality! Wouldn't even mind paying extra.

I believe the pic above was, in fact, taken by a 4 year old cell phone of one of the crew... really! LOL! It certainly wasn't taken with one of our professional cameras. After all, it is a behind the scenes shot. Sheesh!

Haha! Well, ok. That explains that!

But you skipped my real (I guess It was mostly implied) question.. Are you considering moving to Full HD?

Full HD? No, not really. Haven't looked into all of the costs, but I'm sure they are prohibitive for videos such as these. If someone would give me a Hollywood budget though, I might consider it. LOL!
