Documentary Making and Rockin' Out: A Weekend Recap.

This past weekend I traveled north to see my nephews, brother and sister-in-law.As usual we had a great time. We watched "The Prestige" Friday night and went to see their school play Saturday evening. In between we played Guitar hero and made a documentary film.

Here are some pics of us playing guitar hero:


Nathan and I playing around.

Thomas wondering what he has gotten himslef into!

Nathan and I having a Psychobilly Freakout! (well at least I am)


THE DOCUMENTARY FILM EXPERIENCE: Our documentary film was realistically portrayed in the furnished basement room of the house. Entitled "Clowns in the Military", we investigated the varied population of our special forces, as well as how the media interferes for the sake of the "big story".

Tom portrayed the Media investigator who opens wide the fact that clowns actually play an intrigal part in our success in the Middle East. The voice of the clown, filming as well as direction was performed by your's truly, CC. Nathan portrayed an Al Quaeda operative and Tom doubled as his co-conspirator for one intragal part of the film. Jessica convincingly played an Iraqi woman caught in the crossfire of warring factions.

Due to the nature of this documentary, we only have one production still to show at this time:



SYNOPSIS: A Reporter is interested in shedding light on Clowns in the military so he invites a special agent into an interview. He asks him of his daily duties and the perils of parachuting into enemy territory to which the clown replies "Noone expects a clown to jump out of an airplane. It's the element of surprise!".The Clown is hard pressed to give any other details as it is TOP SECRET.

The Reporter decides to secretly follow the Clown on of his missions without his knowledge or consent. What follows is a grisly reality of what can happen when a mission is compromised. The Reporter and Camera man get too close foiling the mission and succumbing to a counter-attack by Al Quaeda forces. The Clown flees to a nearby home and disguises himself as a baby to an unsuspecting Iraqi woman. The Iraqi woman realizes to her shock that her baby Mohammed is not her baby at all but the Clown! Al Queada storm the home, kill the woman and kidnap the clown. The clown was never heard from again.

Tom returns to the studio a broken man with a broken plan to uncover "Clowns in the Military"

Interviews with the cast and crew will be held at a press conference later this week. CClifeorsoemthinglikeit blog will be present to report back the details.

great synopsis of a very informative yet disturbing documentary!
We had a great time with Guitar Hero, movie making, and Kevin M and the Technicolor Dream Coat.
