Warmer weather … again
I hate to keep declaring the opening of mud season, only to crawl back into my cozy den to hide from a cold snap, but here I go again. As we head into April, the days are definitely warming. Now, I need to wait for the low tide to favor mid-day on a warm day … Continue reading
Spring is Here!
Yesterday, and most of today, the weather was quite pleasant. However, as I write this, there is a cold front moving in, so we’re back to the cool, windy weather we expect from March. At least it’s now officially spring! So, I did some maintenance on the new mudpit in the woods, yesterday. I made … Continue reading
Video Log Entry
Today (Nov 25, 2017), after I was finished with some household repairs, I had to step out to enjoy the fresh air and sunshine. It was around 20C (68F) today. I walked back into the woods, stomped around in the new mud pit for a few minutes, rinsed off, then set about rigging a self-bondage … Continue reading
Shooting “Buried Alive”
Today, we shot a clip that I’m going to call “Buried Alive”, because that’s pretty much what it’s about. This past Sunday I dug out the mud-pit I made in the woods. I moved all of the contents onto a plastic sheet, made the pit a few inches deeper, and generally cleaned it up. I … Continue reading
Buried Alive (concept clip)
This is an edited clip from my experimental scene where I was slowly buried in the mud pit. Please see the note below the clip. There are more details in my previous blog entry. Side Note: I’ve been posting a lot of free content, lately, since I haven’t been able to go into the swamp … Continue reading
Mud Pit Concept Clip
This idea starts with a man, tied down to anchors in the bottom of a pit. His head is also tied down, so he can’t raise it and he has a short piece of pipe in his mouth so he will be able to breathe, even when the mud overtakes his face. Which brings us … Continue reading
Long Weekend
I haven’t even started on the lift for my kayak trailer, so I still can’t go kayaking. It’s been raining way too much, anyway. I have been making the most of the weekend, and trying not to inflict too much stress on my spine. I worked a bit on the new mud pit in the woods, … Continue reading
Yet Another Archery Video
Look people, I have a very complicated camera and I’m still figuring it out, *and* I love to make archery videos. So back off! 🙂 I shot this video in 4K on an overcast day, which makes for some awesome imagery. I also set up a stereo microphone configuration so you could hear the bow … Continue reading
Biding my Time Before Surgery
I’ve got a consult scheduled for next week with a surgeon, regarding my back. In the mean time, I’m just trying to avoid further injury and keep in shape. In this video, I’m doing some pull-ups, while waiting for my laundry to dry. It’s not a great video. Just a status update. I hope you … Continue reading
