Playaz Ball going straight to DVD

As mentioned in previous posts, I've been hard at work finalizing a DVD for this year's Playaz Ball.

I have not yet decided if this is something I can release to the "general public", as it may not be cost effective for the Playaz.

I will say that the final cut is perfect. Yesterday, one of my little girls was watching the DVD and became very frightened and burst into tears which let me know I was on the right track.

One reader suggested I post it to YouTube. While normally I'd say this makes sense, the DVD is currently 26 mins - YouTube only allows 10 mins maximum video time. Cutting and rendering the video, and reducing the file size will make for a less-than-quality production with a lot of time spent. Also, there are several clips that cannot be shown to the public. So while this may be an option for certain segments later down the road, currently it is not an option.

So in the meantime, I will keep you posted if it becomes available to the masses.

(P.S. - Don't worry...I immediately scooped up my little girl and propped her up on my knee...we continued watching and she was giggling and laughing in no time...)
