Vote For Mermaids

It’s that time of year again!
The Mermaids and I all made a movie a couple weeks ago and submitted it to the Renton Film Frenzy VI.
Now we are voting on The People’s Choice.

Once you register you can vote once per day for your favorite Mermaids.

There were three “curveballs” this year.

  1. We must have a character named Gene Coulon
  2. We must film in the Renton Piazza
  3. We must have an airplane represented in the film

See if you can spot all three.

The synopsis this year:
A family night of singing takes a turn into the 21st century when two sweet violets record their Grampa singing his favorite song and turn it into one of their own.

Renton FilmFrenzy 2013
Not So Sweet Violets Synopsis: An innocent family night of singing lurches forward into the 21st century when two sweet violets share their new-age creativity and technological know-how with their Grampa.

There will be a public free screening of all of the films on Oct 19th at 7PM at the Renton Civic Theater.

Come see us defend our 2012 Peoples Choice Award!


Note: The Mermaids were awesome this weekend. They were actresses and choreographers and hair dressers and editors and all around excellent movie makers.
Kudos to them and thanks to BopOp for joining in the fun – and being the foil.

This I did break today, just sitting there – well okay flexing and stretching ever-so-slightly backwards and in full view of every patron in the restaurant, a couple of co-workers, and the staff.

What does it say about me that I wasn’t embarrassed (at all) and instead added to the event by going back into the kitchen to snap this picture?

It says, at least, that I’ve been outed to my coworkers (and some residents of Belltown) and that I break things often enough not to think of it as all that unusual; so much so that I didn’t even think to snag an immediate pic
…of the pile of firewood
…left on the floor
…at my feet
…grovelling in a heap
…in abject awe
…at the Overlord of Breakishness!

MUAHAHAHA-Ha!
