I had the opportunity to preview the Matt Long video shortly after NCECA
last year. It was a great video! Matt is so personable and fun to
watch! Great information too. The ONLY complaint I have (and this is
nitpicky) is that he's wearing khaki colored shorts and working in
porcelain. Black or denim shorts would have provided more contrast with
the clay. Occasionally it all blends together on video. I particularly
liked the firing scenes, but then I'm a bit of a pyromaniac (of course,
what potter isn't at least a little)
Excellent choice!

Cynthia, thanks for response to my question. I believe I'll get it --I Iike Matt's work and wanted to see how it was done. I assume he goes into some detail on the slips that he uses.
