I was playing around with my new DV camera, and learning how to edit DV... So for fun, I put together a little video/slideshow complete with soundtrack just for giggles. I can't get streaming video to work, however, so if you want to see the video, you'll have to right click the link(s) and hit "save target as" and save it to your computer to watch. If ye watchs it, lemme know what you think. I am planning a couple of short pirate and/or SCA-related films (Including at least one music video-type film for a bardic piece), and a Cannon-Firing Demo video, so this was just basically a test for future work. The Videos are in .WMV format. Iron Lotus Video (Big) Iron Lotus V…

Brando: actor, recluse and now pulp-fiction author By Joseph A. Giannone Mon Sep 19, 2:51 PM ET NEW YORK (Reuters) - Actor Marlon Brando has been immortalized in film for playing a Mafia boss, a luckless boxer and a rebellious biker, but 14 months after his death he is now also an author of a swashbuckling pirate novel. ADVERTISEMENT "Fan-Tan," a pulp fiction novel authored by Brando and a longtime associate, movie director Donald Cammell, arrived on bookshelves this week after their unfinished manuscript was polished by film historian David Thomson and published by Random House imprint Alfred A. Knopf. The book offers Brando fans a rare insight into the reclusiv…

I just picked up and watched Captain Kidd with Charles Laughton and Randolph Scott, I found it at Walmart for 1$ and was very satisfied. For a buck it was a steal, I also saw a PIRATES! movie pack at Best Buy for 9.99 the other day but didn't pick it up, does anyone have it or know if it's worth the money????

Greetings all, Well, after an afternoon of finish work, the board is finally done. Below I have posted some pictures of the finished product. Here is an overall view of the board. The whole thing consists of two main parts, the board itself, and the base with angle card holder. This shot shows the details of the island layout. Note the colors of the water. I did this to give the effect of depth and realism. Although it is not very noticeable in this shot, some of the areas around the islands have a hint of green, giving the illusion of reefs and sea plants. The base section is encircled by oak angle boards designed to hold ship cards, crew chits, etc... Fo…

I just had to post this, it is far to cool not to share... My good buddy Allison, who is an amazing artist, was talked (or bullied) into drawing a series of pictures featuring various members of our "gang" as pirates. She is as good as her word, and to my immense delight, she chose to draw me as one of the first. I've been dieing to get drawn by this chick for ages, and she finally has, as a sword-toting, asskicking swashbuckler with a hook, no less! She even included my favorite hat! Anyway, check out the first two portraits of members of the crew of the Lusty Weasel. Or the Scurvy Lasses of the... Lust Weasels? We haven't been able to agree on our ship's name yet. Ca…

Not sure if I should post here or in Plunder, but the other day we were in Wally world and what to my wonderin eyes appears. That's right Pirates of the Caribbean Candy! Malted milkballs were called cannonballs and they had another as well but can't remember which it was. But it's on the candy aisle with all the bagged candy. It was like a dollar something a bag. The package was blue with the POTC logo on it. I had never seen those before. So If you like Cannonballs go to wally World.

In a determined effort to get some bloody enjoyment out of living twenty-five minutes outside of a big city already (and as a reward for not buying the various superfluous piratical items I've had my eye on at various internet sites and shops), I extravagantly splurged and bought a ticket to see "The Pirates of Penzance" on Thursday evening this week. It's apparently a good seat, the guy said something about the orchestra seating/section/whatever (and it had BETTER be a good seat ... I mean, the ticket was for under $50, which really is good for a good seat at a nice show, I know ... but STILL) ... I got the soundtrack awhile ago and still haven't found time to sit down …
