Christmas Blessings is a slightly dark, character driven, holiday movie - for... part of the family.

If you find your vocabulary “wanting,” you should check out Cindy’s videos.

Full remastered version of Night of the Living Dead on Youtube.  They’re coming to get you Barbara.  :)

Check out Adam Ondra in this episode of Beasts of Bouldering!

Today’s word of the day is “Abrogate.” Can you use it in a sentence?

Get smart with Cindy.

Abjure.  Can you use it in a sentence?

Here is the trailer for the short film "New Toys," cut from old VHS footage.

In 1989, the O’Donnell’s purchased a new VHS Camcorder.

While creating a memorial video for the late great Uncle Billy, I archived a bunch of old VHS footage.  The footage covered roughly a two year period from late 1989 through 1990, with exceptions.  After completing the memorial video, I had a source timeline with several hours of footage, which I continued to narrow down to vignettes focused on character, and juxtaposing moments.

There were several themes living within footage, nostalgia aside, that asked to be a short film.  This included the difference in how people interacted with the camera in the pre-social media generations, the importance of the dining room table, music, etc.  A holiday is where I was able to group the most of these together, so this VHS footage quickly became a Christmas Movie, with the camera living as a dominant character.

"New Toys," in 1989 oh, the O'Donnell's bought a VHS camcorder.
