    this is a great little gem that just needss some polishing and maye a little more depth. there are some blackholes and some sound missing. You could do an entire doc. here with a few other people to round out there experience and some steadyier camera work. BUt I found it interesting !

    Looks and feels like a rough cut. We could do A LOT with this. I had never seen a FEMA trailor until now, other than in the Spike Lee Doc. This is a very candid piece. Thank you for sharing.

    :J)

    Aaaaaaaah

    Just FYI: We are still waiting to put music on this POD (have to upload it to the site to access music, so it's up before it's completely finished) and will still be tweaking a few final things........ but thanks thanks thanks for your input so far :) Please check back. Music will be added with a quickness.

    Great topic! There is really something to do with it, but you need to clean up your editing. Maybe you can remove the writing when he talks, add a music track, and cut the shaky shots ( you can maybe pause on a few angles). But I really like your pod. I'll check it later...

    Please check out my pod "KEEP YOUR BUTTS OFF THE BEACH" about the International Coastal Cleanup Day on September 15th: <a href="http://www.current.tv/watch/154201482">link</a>

    good topic, maybe take out female voice and tighten up editing. Add some music......I can score for you if you want!

    Great idea. I'm glad you covered it. Tighten it up a little more and you are good to go. No white text either. GL

    Who is giving this Red Lights????

    There are some issues to tidy up and the producer already said he was going to make some changes. There is NO freakin need to take points away.

    I agree take out the white text, it doesn't get the job done.

    Add some music (you've already addressed that though, I think)

    Cut it down a little and tighten up the narrative.

    GL from me though, looking forward to the next edit.

    After reading the title, this pod seemed to be my only choice on the page.

    Wow, thanks for bringing us into your trailer!

    Looking forward to seeing this on tv.

    that was interesting! trailor houses seem like a good way we can house students cheaply.

    This is more proof that FEMA is an extermination agency. Makes me wonder about the 600, empty 'FEMA Camps' that have already been built throughout the United States (see: the 'Detainment Camps' section of this document http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=7763)

    Very weird that no one is realizing this... Bush is the new Hitler!!!
