ElectroReggaeJam is essential for extraterrestrials

In the future, aliens will descend upon this planet in their metallic rotating station wagons. They will have one goal. To find the funk.

Our aliens were two different colors, and they were best buds, which means that in space there might not be racism.

Anyways, the shoot was plenty of fun. I was reticent wave around my directorial muscle ;-) around too much, so the crew positions weren't set in stone, especially mine. I agree with Dylan, Jordan is an organized lady, and responsible for having the juggling gypsy as our base of operations. Even though we were at times half naked, or dressed like ladies and whatnot, it wasn't much of a big deal. Pretty standard gypsy fair. I'd imagine that if you were trying to book a show at the gypsy and they asked what you sounded like, and you said pretty weird, they'd probably say OK. Side not: $2.50 for a tall boy is always worth it.

I was really worried about the costumes for a bit. There was another costume that a friend said that I could used, but then our shoot date moved and he was using it for something else if you'd believe it. It was just a purple sand bucket with a square eyehole that he wore a black "invisible man/grim reaper" hood under with a green robe. Very good alien. But ours came out well. Bags over our heads is looooow budget, but I think it effectively created the impression of an alien, at least a campy b-grade one. As a director I was firm in that we needed to obscure the faces of the aliens. I hope we successfully revealed the fact that the aliens had human skin color backs.

I really can't believe that we got the concert footage. It was so hectic for a while. I was trying to direct through a throng of people with a bag over my head. I know a bartender there which helped because I'd met the manager through her. Everyone seemed pretty amused by us. I got my butt pinched. I pinched back. All was well.

I lost my phone though.....
