In this month, more kayaking, more snorkelling, more sunrises, and a Solar Eclipse. As well, beginning to shop for a Sailboat, finally filmed a Short that I wrote and took a Shot in the Ass to feel better.
Out on the water is my favourite place to be where I found another Nemo this month. This is starting to feel like my connection with Butterflies.

Way out by the first Buoy. I don't know why it freaks me out to get so close to objects floating in the water.

Over to Puerto Morelos for a few games of vball and to check out another marina option at El Cid.
Written in 2018 (well, started writing anyway), working title "InstaNation", a short film about the manipulation of Social Media on its users. This is the Short we tried to film in 2022, but couldn't get organised enough to get it done. After writing 6 versions and finding a director "Andros" last year it was time to film at Radio Tulum Hotel in Tulum. Two days of shooting to get a 7 minute short film.
Short Side Story: The original story takes place in a dark basement suite in a Northern Canadian city which is a far cry from the final story that is likely in the Miami area projects in the middle of summer. Let's see how it turns out...

Director Andros |
|
Ordered this idea in English but of course it wasn't ready |
|
Worked a lot on graphic pop ups |
|
Chess board prop, etc |
|
Good thing I didn't buy this shirt for the Security uniform |
|
Thanks Vicki for allowing us your account |
|
Fridge coming up, tough job |
|
redundancy is important in props and good to feed the crew! |
|
Yep, this reminded me of filming |
|
Since we didn't have the "Security" shirt I was able to make this cool little tag |
|
Imagine a crew of 20...yikes |
|
No chance of catching the camera in the shot since we need it to film |
|
That's very sweet Gio |
|
Happy part of the Short |
|
What is this... |
|
Dinner break. tasty food at Radio Tulum |
|
Ah, that's why it's called Radio Tulum |
|
And it gets Darker |
|
Thanks to Gio, Andros and Mandeep for your efforts. |
Yep a shot in the ass to kill a bacteria I picked up...The strangest feeling when you pass the skin barrier into emptiness! I had to do it twice...
|
Probably should have had the doc do it... But where's the fun in that!? |
Other Stuff
|
A Pride Police Car...Isn't that discrimination?? Now one in black too! |
