On the set of the first film funded by our auctions!

All of my auctions are actually the fund-raising efforts of a small band of film-makers. We make these items in our free time in order to raise money for the purchase of equipment and supplies to finance our short films. Recently we finished principal photography on two short films that are now going through the editing process. Our immediate goal now is to raise money for new sound equipment.
Almost all of the products listed in my auctions and Ebay Store are made in-house by our core group. I myself have been making costumes for almost twenty years and developed a few designs that are very easy to alter on most adults, making them ideal for online sales where a customer is not likely to be able to come over for a fitting!
We've found Ebay to be a wonderful place to find assorted pieces of equipment, as well as a few wonderfully unusual props! As the art director and FX supervisor for these films, I'm constantly on the lookout for various items to add to the look and feel of a set, costume, or makeup effect, and I can always count on Ebay sellers to have what I'm looking for... be it an old VHS camcorder or a case of plaster bandages!
