Tubes & ‘Tunes

I have two videos to share with you today. The first is episode 3 ofTuberville, a web series that I have worked on in Vermont. 30′ dolly move in a frozen potato field was actually more fun than it sounds.

See the previous episodes and learn how Tuberville is helping feed families in need at tubervilletheseries.com.

Next up is the trailer for Neptune, a feature film that will finish shooting next summer.

Pretty great, to say the least, but please help Last House Productions continue making this. Spread the word on Twitter and Facebook. Share the trailer with friends. Make a donation if you can at Lasthouseproductions.com.

New Workbench

The new apartment has a basement and it’s time to build a new workbench. It’ll be the home for the bench vise, truing stand and removable bike work stand. I’m sure I’ve mentioned by affinity for Google Trimble SketchUp in the past, but it really does make projects like this a bit more manageable. Of course, preplanning can only do so much and there will be unexpected snags along the way.

Some friends of mine are doing a livestream Q&A at 8:30 pm this evening (eastern time, of course) to promote the release of the first episode of No Refund for Content. Check out the trailer below and watch the Ustream here.


Follow No Refund for Content as it progresses on the Facebook page, their Twitter and the website, where you can find a little button that says “Donate.” I wonder what that does? Somebody should do some investigating.

UPDATE:
Episode 1 is live and can be viewed below!

Damnationland 2012

adambelangerLeave a comment


This is the first year that I have helped out on a shoot for Damnationland, a showcase of horror films by Maine filmmakers. I only worked on one, but it was a blast, even of it was cold and wet and the location was far away and in the end I may have only bounced light for one or two shots. The premiere is happening right here in Portland on October 19th. You can learn more about it on the Facebook page, or if you’re already won over, buy tickets here. If you can’t make it on the 19th or if you’re not in Portland, don’t fret. Damnationland will be making stops in Brunswick, Lewiston, and Bridgton, plus New York, Los Angeles, and Athens, Ohio. Previous excuses have been rendered invalid.

Up My Alley

That is Elly Blue of Taking the Lane and Joe Biel of Cantankerous Titles. This photo is from an event put on by TRANSPORTland. This has to be the best idea for a bike race ever. 30+ miles, with obstacles and 100 pounds of “emergency supply” cargo. Brilliant!

Last day of shooting for Neptune until we get a significant weather shift.

Today’s location: Seaweed City. It was a very good day, but I should have been more liberal with the sunblock.

Sara Hallie Richardson – What Would It Be Like Video

adambelanger2 Comments

Earlier this summer, and even earlier this winter, I lent a hand to Jeff Grieci of Mint Films on a music video for Maine musician Sara Hallie Richardson. To be honest, I didn’t do much more than bounce a bit of light during the exterior scenes, but it was a load of fun. The winter scenes were shot the morning after a storm that dropped 18″ of snow. It was pretty fun to climb that hill with gear! The beach scene was shot right before Backgammon production began on a beautiful day in Cape Elizabeth. The video is now live and can be viewed below.
