“Let me help.” In another ten years or so from now, I believe, a famous novelist from a planet circling the far left star in Orion’s belt will write a classic using that theme. He’ll recommend those three words—even over “I love you.”

And on a planet orbiting the belt star on the right, a man laughing his ass off will pen the comedy book "Schadenfreude: How to enjoy watching Earthers hoist themselves on their own petards."
 
Ah, the amateur hour. And people wonder why unions and guilds are so strict about who can and cannot touch what on a film set.

On Polaris I was forever snarling at cast and crew who'd wander onto the bridge set with their lunches and beverages, "you stain anything you die". Most of them learned to stay clear off the actual set any time they even handled a soda.
 
I hope no one sends this guy any money. Didn't get insurance, let a bunch of amateurs handle things they obviously didn't know how to handle and now begs for money to sabe his ass. He talks about taking responsibility and then asks other people to cover the majority of the cost, that's NOT taking responsibility it's weaseling out of it by putting the burden on your donors.

It seems the crew (not unreasonably) didn't expect the floor of a "sound stage" would be filthy as f*ck
Who did they think cleans under the set? It was unreasonable, the floor under objects that are rarely or never moved is almost always filthy as fuck, a sound stage isn't a magically clean environment. You don't dump a green screen on the floor you can see and you definitely don't stuff it into a crevice under a set, that's just common sense.

Agreed..........ironic isn't it? Oh and sorry to disappoint but it looks like suckers have already dropped $4000 for him in about 18 hours.

Dustbunnies and sawdust sure, but it seems OIL was the big problem on the material. I have no idea why lots of oil would be everywhere unless LFIM didn't clean up at all before installing the sets in the warehouse. Then again that would have been smart.

Maybe they didn't have to expect oil specifically but they should have expected something under there that could damage the green screen. But I shouldn't be too hard on them, they made a mistake but they aren't the ones making donors pay for it.

Quite right and it was the oil I was thinking of (rather than general dirt) when I made my earlier comment about what not to expect on the floor of the "sound stage" - although really this just boils down to carelessness, whatever the mitigating circumstances
