Thank you Alan! And haha nah, I just got money and what not. Maybe I'll put it towards film stuff, you never know.
PS, how was seattle?!

Hey, saw it was your birthday, ma tsmukan. Many happy returns matey.

Did you get any cool stuff, like film making equipment? All the best to you.

Your most welcome, my friend. Err, sorry for getting your last name wrong - Doh! *Note to self - double check names*.

The translation, and I probably got it all wrong if one of the Na'vi speakers read it, says: "An honour to know you, my good brother. Avatar Spirit be with you." Or something...

Well hope you have a wonderful Christmas time and get to make loads more films. No doubt we'll chat again. Until then take care and keep well, ma tsmukan.

Eywa ngahu,

Alan

Alan, your Christmas card has reached here successfully! I don't think anything more than a picture of Neyney wearing a Santa hat could put me in the holiday spirit more than you just did. Merry Christmas to you, director, and tsmukan. Oel ngati kameie.

P.S. My last name is spelled wrong HAHAHA lmao . And also, my Na'vi isn't fluent, can I get translation of the inside message?

Kaltxi HotG, Great to hear from you. I must admit I tend to seem to find most of my time is spent in PM land rather on the forums! I must get out more on the forum. I spent a whole afternoon watch all of Freddiew's stuff. He must spend all his time doing nothing but making videos with his mates. Yep, gave me a bit of inspiration too:
YouTube - After Effects Test shot.mp4
Yep, can't wait for the CE. However, I'm trying to organise a meet up at the local IMAX to watch Avatar for the last time in the flicks. So far there is 5 of us. I'm also going to see if they will show our film, but its a long shot... Take care my friend and happy film making. You have to forward some links through.

Kaltxi HotG, hows things over your way. Have you done any more film making recently? Hey have to checked out FreddieW on You Tube. Some pretty cool stuff there. Well hope all is well for you...

Kaltxi Nick. You are most welcome ma tsmukan. Glad it worked ok. I tell you it is just wonderful to be able to post these out to you all. It is like a tangible connection between us, even though we may never meet in person. A letter is still worth a thousand emails. Irayo for all your input. I remember the day we spent sending video files over the atlantic and back again to get the finished shot. Outstanding! You never know we might do another one...

Eywa ngahu ma tsmukan,

Alan

Hey Alan! Just got the package in the mail! Thanks for the t-shirt, dvd, and wonderful letter. My family and I love the film, we've watched it numerous times already and you've gained a name in my household. As I read the letter I thought of how remarkable it was that I was holding a piece of paper that was crafted and signed by the very person I've been collaborating with over the internet to make this film! You have put so much hard work into this package and in this I want to thank you. Thank you very much!

Hey, believe me, I'm looking forward to walking into the post office and sending them out to you all. I'm just waiting from one more shot for Part 2 of the 'making of'. All the DVDs are printed and the Extras CDs have been burnt and printed too.
