As promised here's the email from the Dutch
company. They HAVE asked Thrales as well. We can discuss on Sunday.

Subject: [TR Committee] Metropolis TV
To whom it may concern,
I'm a documentary filmmaker who's recently graduated from the University of
Manchester and has been asked to pitch ideas for Metropolis TV
(
http://www.metropolistv.nl/en), the Dutch show which looks at cultures across the globe.
One of the categories for their Spring season is to look at 'Dance' within the
correspondent's country, to uncover what it means to perform traditional dances in the
21st century.
I've been in contact with the team at DERT 2013 and they recommended I contact you to
see if you'd be interested in being in my 4-5 minute report for Metropolis? At the
moment I'm hoping I could document your preparations for the DERT competition and your
performance on the 9th of March? As the film is so short it wouldn't take a great deal
of your time and, although I can't offer financial compensation, I would be happy to
barter my production skills (filming; photography; sound recording; editing) in return for
your participation.
If you're interested and would like to discuss the project further, please do not
hesitate to contact me via email or on 0777 613 2087. If you'd like to know more about
my work, you can see my graduation film about Nidar Singh Nihang, the last master of
Shastar Vidiya, here

Thank you very much for your time, I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
Jacob Harbord
