Howdy ags! Bunterman here, and after spending the past couple of days reading all the posts on here (especially YellowPot96's post "Bonfire Memories". That got me choked up like Chip Thiel's speech at the Memorial Dedication), I figured this would be the best place to go for some help on the Bonfire documentary I'm currently working on.

You probably saw me during Bonfires 97-99, I was usually the guy carrying the camera, taking photos, and telling people, "No, I don't work for the Batt, dammit. I work for the Aggieland."

Anyway, I'm looking for anything Bonfire related, photos, videos, memories, stories, and people to interview on camera. The film is going to focus on the Bonfire community before the fall, and the change in the university after it. I'd like to talk to deads and the kids doing Student Bonfire, Bonfire Coalition people, current students, former students, professors, etc. Basically, I want to interview everyone.

If you're interested, send me an email at bonfiremovie@yahoo.com, or post on here with some contact info. I'll get in touch with you.

To see what I've got so far (kinda like a trailer), check out the link below:

Hope to hear from some of you guys soon.

That looks great; it has a lot of potential. Sending email now.

I've seen that trailer before. Very high quality!


Remember '99.

Every time I read Texags and come across some of you snivelling, tradition hating ladies, I lose a little more hope for A&M. Some of you candy-asses clearly got lost on the way to Austin, Lubbock or Waco. Please buy a map and leave. - Buck Turgidson

very nice! I would like to see all of it when it is done

2005 lit so good! Stupid pine wouldn't stay lit though, grr.

Very nicely done video! Keep up the good work! How long are you planning on making the movie?

This is going to be a feature length (90 minutes or more) film.

The trailer was my project for my film class, and it needs some tweaking and re-editing (the internet transfer was really badly done, that's why it look so pixelated), but it took me over a week to just do that part. I'm not going to let this thing go out until I'm happy with it.

If anyone has any suggestions or wants to be interviewed, send me an email at bonfiremovie@yahoo.com.

good video, although dont really care for the country bumpkin soundtrack.....

Its not his fault you have poor taste in music....

It's network music, which means it's uncopywrited. I didn't have much of a choice, though I'm hoping to find someone who would do a better score.

Any suggestions?

pretty hilarious, i bet your fun at parties



i think a drum cadence would be better at the start....

The music is definitely going to change. I just don't know what it's going to be, though the drum cadence is an idea.

The music is fine. how did you know Miranda?

I was with Aston, and she was with Mosher. She was one of "the girls" and she used to hang out at the duplex with us, as well as bug us at Java Jitters when we were working.

If by 'I was in Aston' you mean 'I was Wells Hall Bonfire' then I agree.

Damn you for bringing up my dark past.

Wells Hall Bonfire - Last in, first out, see you when it burns.

Remember, I brought out record numbers my year. I had one person come out, which was a 100% increase.

That reminds me of the joke about "What do you call a southsider at Bonfire?"

Lost.

Dammit Hunter! Quit farting around on Texags and call me so I can get my **** back!

Wow, props to Texags language nazis for not letting my just put an ! instead of an i in ****.

So there is no Southside support at Student Bonfire?

There's Dunn (and Hart, if you consider it part of Southside). That's pretty much it.

There were some Aston guys in 03 as well as 04, but they were not present last year. A couple guys from Appelt cut with FHK, and later on moved into FHK. Maybe two girls from Mosher or so?

There was one Mosher girl with FHK last year.

There were a couple of Mosher girls with OC last year, a couple of Aston guys came out too...

I am from Aston, Eppright, and OC myself.
