 The director and producer went to pick up the HD camera a day before  shooting only to find that the rental house had "lost" the  paperwork. Another company stepped up to the plate, but without an  established relationship they had to call the directors film  school, industry colleagues, and realtor before releasing the  equipment. The realtor that sold the director his house knew one of  the owners of the rental company and that made the difference. On a  separate note: the house cost less than the insured value of the  equipment.
