Making a documentary about online poker pros

[PartyGirlUK]

Hi,

Diablo said we could make our own thread for this. Krantz and I are seriously considering making a documentary about online poker pros. It might be somewhat similar to 'Spellbound', following them in the months leading up to the WSOP, followed by a 15 minute '1 year later' piece. The exact format we are shooting for is unknown, we might just try and get some great footage then see what to do with it. We're making this post for 2 reasons.

i) We would like this documentary to be a great piece of work, and would welcome suggestions on how you think this could be best achieved. Potential pitfalls, avenues to explore, structure of the piece etc. all comments welcome, even if they consist of 'This idea sucks, it will never work'. Please try to be constructive.

ii) We are looking for subjects of the film. We want to create something representative of our community, and to not open it up to as diverse a group as we could get would definitely be a disservice to the film and online poker players. If you are think you would be a good subject, or know someone who would be, please let us know. It doesn't matter if you are high or low stakes, limit or no limit, old or young etc. etc. We want a representative group, and mainly people who are interesting. I even think we could incorporate a live pro, that might actually add something.

Thanks,

Dean and Jay
