listen to the last ustream he did. usually he says "i'm going over the editing notes for my editor." last ustream, he just came out and said he had just finished editing some parts of HC3. just raw freudian slips, left and right. can you deny anything i said about his school zombie film?
but you're right. crowd funding is used to help create something you want to enjoy. the entire thing just rubs me the wrong way though.
You're reaching man.
Tariq has an editor or editors. That's just how producers speak. A producer may say, "I'm going to the studio to work on an edit." It doesn't
mean they're at the keyboard making edits. They're in there directing the editor or overseeing it.
Sometimes a producer may go through chunks of shot footage and clip the most important/best takes for an editor to cook with.
As an editor out here in LA, that's my experience.
You being rubbed the wrong way and listening intently for Freudian slips sound like self-hate/crabs in the barrel. Real shyt.
I'm not trying to attack you because I think many of us, even myself, are effected by self-hate. Its just been embedded in us.
People are willing, without any hesitation or afterthought, to give money or donate to projects by white people but when it comes time to
support each other, all of a sudden we become Sherlock Holmes and
. We don't trust each other.
Without question Tariq is trying to make a profit. This is how he eats.
He's also providing a service and reaching an audience that the typical scholar couldn't reach.
tariq is the cameraman and editor of HC series.
if i wanted to hate on tariq, i'd talk about how he got a damn near white baby from a biracial chick :todd: i'd bring up how the nikka lives in an all white community, but he talking all that faux pro-black shyt :joel: or i'd talk about the nikkas seemingly ambiguous homosexual nature, right down to playing gay ass video clips in all of his ustream shows
but that's yo king tho
i just got on board when he started talking empowerment through finances, still got my issues with some of his rhetorici dont want to bootleg it but at the same time, i take issue w/tariqs hustling tactics. dude puts out kickstarter pages to get people to donate, only for him to turn around and sell the dvd to the same fans. dude is double dipping too hard for me.
