  • couple of pics from Silent film

    conscience!

    Here is Brett. You can tell he is OVERJOYED with the make-up. Jake is behind him grinning! He said he looks like Bretts conscience sitting on his shoulder and Bretts trying to listen to him!!!

    no!!!

    what they shot today was a scene at a "bar."

    In old black/white Silent films, they really darkened their eyes, brows, mustaches and lips so their features would be pronounced. Thus....the make-up!

    set

    the scene itself. They guys and gals did it themselves! They did GREAT! I couldnt get the whole shot in. They have shelves with the bottles, a older guy being the bartender, etc.

    Now.........I am off the rest of the week, GIVE ME MY PJ's and hairclip!! LOL

  • Raining again today, Thanks Ida!!!

    Thanks to good ole Ida the Hurricane, we have rain today. But not before I got my campfire last night!!! It was just Brett and me, so he fixed me up a campfire!! I love my boy! He even went in and fixed me a hot cup of cocoa.......even added the mini marshmallows!!!!!!!!!!!

     starting Getting it started just like a good boy scout!

    fire starter I love this pic!

    finally Now....thats a campfire! I am going to give ya a hint here.....if you can see, this is a keyhole fire pit.where the fire is, it is circular. Now....look to the left side, there is a square addition. It is shaped like a keyhole Keyhole kiva (this is the best web pic I could find) After you get your fire going good, you rake coals down to the left hand side. This is where you cook! Make sence? You put your grill rack over the coals by resting the rack on the rocks. Your main fire is in the circle. The difference in the little sketch and ours....the left handed side is squared up instead of "flared" so it can hold our grill rack better.

     

    foot these 2 pics, he got my phone and went to playing. I think they are neat!!! The first is his foot...........

    hand the 2nd is his hand

    Today, we are off to our 2nd day of shooting for the movie. Then, I am off the rest of the week from any errands, etc. WooHoo! HOME!

  • Busy morning!

     

    Well, we went and got the first of our Silent Movie done. We go do the second half tomorrow. It was so funny to see the guys in heavy makeup! We had to put black around their eyes, blacken their mustaches, red... RED lipstick, not to forget darken their eyebrows too! All the guy were dying to get their makeup off, but not Brett!!!!!!!!! He wants to show his dad and brother!! I came home with an EMO!! Lolpenrod (Brett is wearing the black pants)

    I got only one thing accomplished yesterday- I cleaned my car. That was it! Instead, I laid down under the trees and watched the leaves fall! It was so peaceful. We sat outside and enjoyed it. Later on we ran off the Mtn for ice creams. Had intentions for building another campfire, but we ended up getting interested in the Titans football game. WE WON!! WooHoo!!trees  (looking up into the trees) me  (me!)

     jaKE N BELL (Jake and Belle chilling! yep, she has to have her own seat!!) 

    kill tag (wonder if we need a kill tag for this one?!?!?!)

    Now, to get schooling started and TRY to clean some house.
