OMG!!!! I didn't even think about your studio Daphne!!!! Its so clean, and well organized
I would have been totally spazzing about cleaning my room, let alone thinking about what to wear. And honestly, you DO look gorgeous in the video :hug:
Fabulous Daphne, the video was just great - I love your room where you work, your bears were gorgeous and they must feel all excited with their fame :dance: :dance:
hugs

Daphne you were AWESOME!!!!!!! Oh my gosh that was SO cool! I can't wait to see the entire segment!!!!
Your new studio looks fabulous too! Aren't you glad you decided to finally move it upstairs? :)
Hmmmm.... gotta finish re-organizing MINE now! :crackup:
You guys are so funny.... Paula, where HAVE you been all this time???
My studio..... oh, I worked hard to get that in order. I saved the clothes thing for last. I was changing my top for the 9th time as they pulled into the driveway! But back to my studio.... I even organized my mohair in my closet.... got it all folded and stacked by style then color. Thought it might be a neat visual for the camera (I have a LOT of mohair!) Well, the camera man thought it would be great to film too and I told him if he needed to pull it out of the closet for better lighting to go ahead and do whatever he needed to. The reporter and I left the room to chat while he spent 45 minutes just filming stuff in my studio. When we went back up he'd taken ALL of it out of the closet and created a sea of mohair ALL OVER my studio! :doh: :crackup: He also pulled my neatly displayed bears apart. Again, I gave permission and it's really all OK but now I have to clean it all over again!
Now that I know how a TV inteview goes and what to expect and all I wish they'd come back and do it all over again. I wouldn't be so nervous!
:crackup: :crackup: :crackup: Think the cameraman was a boy secretely wanting to play with all the toys :crackup: :crackup:
Well done Daffers! You look great, relaxed and YOUNG! What ya using to keep that fresh face hon? Give me the secret.
Seriously, you deserve the recognition for all the hard work you put into Mimzy Daphne. Congratulations.

The cameraman must have been very impressed with your supplies and your workroom to have spent so much time setting up and filming there. People don't often understand how very special artist bears are and the work that goes into making them. I'm sure you made quite an impression.
Daphne,
AWESOME
You were terrific in the interview ...I didn't see anything that could have been done better than it was, everything was PERFECT !!
I remember all the anquish you had over making all those different Mimzys and worrying about satisifying the director, etc ...it was all worth it!!!! Congratulations!!!!
Wanda
YEA DAPHNE! I am giddy with excitement, so I can only imagine that you must just be walking on air right now! How cool is that! Plus, my own Emma/Mimzy set arrived today... here's a quick snapshot of Ben and Miranda with them...
That is so cool!!!
I have spent all day trying to get the clip to play, and it finally did!!! It was great to see you and your studio. What a beautiful room!!
What an amazing experience you have had!!! Who would have thought that first email would lead to all these opportunities!! Well done you!!
Fantastic daphne..and your bears look great on the clip too!!! :clap: :clap:
Oh Kim!!!! Your children are just ADORABLE!!!!
I don't often see movies twice, as I don't have time to see all that I do want to attend, even once! But this was a Day With Grandma and we saw The Last Mimzy (of course!)
2 questions - Daphne, does Joely Richardson have a Brit accent? I sure couldn't tell! I remembered that her Mum is Vanessa Redgrave. About the only actor I've ever known who could pull off an American accent is Hugh Laurie. Totally believable! If her normal speech articulation is British, she'd be second!
And, if any of you will still be seeing the movie, please give me your opinion on this: near the end, when Emma & Noah are riding in Mr White's car, his fiance turns around to ask if they're OK. There's a shot of just Emma, begining to weep. It's night and there's reduced light coming in the car windows.
The shot of Emma lasts just a few seconds so look quickly: look at the fabric of the car seat in the upper left side of the screen. I'd SWEAR that it's VINTAGE LONG PILE FABRIC in a light shade, slightly distressed or swirly, which appears light golden-ish due to being a night shot.
He drives an older car. And a lot of this fabric went to auto and train seats....
Someone tell me I wasn't seeing things!
Mini ted makers can sniff this stuff out in the most unlikely placs...
Looks like it went really well, Daphne!!! Congratulations! I knew you'd be fine once you got started - and as you said your future interviews and filming will be so much easier now that you know what to expect.
Bobbie, you are so funny! I plan to go see it again next week and will have to pay close attention to the inside of the car! As for Joley..... I'll have to ask Laura her opinion as well, but I do believe she has a British accent. She didn't say much so it's hard to be sure.
OK! I think the lady says something like "Are you kids OK?" and Emma turns her face toward the left side of the screen (her right side), with a tear down her cheek and says "I don't want Mimzy to die.." Look at the upper back of the seat above her right shoulder during those moments.
Oh Daphne, how wonderful and you looked just great on the interview.
If you didn't read in my post on the school talk... I mentioned Mimzy to the kids and they all were surprized that I knew the maker.
How cool for you!
Big Congrats Daphne, I think you did a great job you didn't seem to be nervous at all. I also love your studio it's so bright and must be so much fun to work in.
big hugs
Shane
Oh Daphne - that was sooooooooo cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just watched the interview - you looked relaxed! I had a bit of a head spin hearing you talk - Not how I imagined somehow LOL Very sweet though!!
You looked gorgeous!

Hugs Jane.
P.S. I wanna studio just like yours!
It's OK Daphne, I guess my voice would sound different too. I am really looking forwards to seeing you on Utube.
I am also looking forwards to receiving my very own Mimzy to sit with my bears.
Hugs Jane.
