My U.S. Wings from 2008

Post by IndianaJonathan »

Fellow Adventurers,

I just posted the slideshow/storyboard for my Indiana Jones and the Spear of Destiny on Vimeo.

http://www.vimeo.com/16596998

My Indy Jacket is an XL Cowhide from U.S. Wings in February 2008. I shrunk it by wetting it with hot water in the shower and drying it with a dry quilt, checking it every 30 minutes, then conditioning it with Picard's Leather Dressing. I've done this about 4 times. As such, after wearing it most days for 2 1/2 years, it is well conditioned and fits perfectly. I love it!

I thoroughly enjoyed watching that! VERY nice angles on your shots, and no tell-tale 'modern' missed objects in the background that would jerk a viewer back to the present. Well done!

HIGH regards! Michaelosn

Thanks Gentlemen,

I am in the midst of post-production--editing/sound/music/special effects. Expect something in January. At present, I am not sure how long Spear will be. I started with the ambition of just making a long trailer, but it's turned into something more.

I will keep you posted. :TOH:
