So, a few weeks ago I was commissioned by a band out of Canada to write an original song and produce a few video segments for some sort of space invasion themed music video trilogy. The video below has blank spaces where another production companies narrative shots will be placed. Anywho, I'm posting this to just kinda bring things down to Earth for a moment. Like so many other TS performers, I only spend maybe 15% of my time dicking around with porn and promo. The vast majority of my time is spent doing other equally strange and/or boring activities and things like this project serve as an example of that.

If you're here strictly for porn and fantasy and you are a fan of mine, look away. This will destroy your boner. If you dig hard rock and dark imagery, click on. (full screen it and click on the HD for ultimate effect... it's dark.)

Behind the scenes photos can be found below if you're interested in how I go from my normal moderately ugly to full on Cenobite:

I actually like hard rock and dark imagery every bit as much as porn and fantasy. More great stuff from the always changing Jamie French. Kinda reminded me of the demon from The Exorcist too.

Hell yeah... that demon image from The Exorcist has stuck with me for years. It finds it's way into quite a few of my video projects actually. This particular video utilizes a kind of composite of that image, Pin Head, and Shinzon from one of the really crappy Star Trek TNG movies.

That's a comparison I've had to deal with for years. I share an almost identical facial structure with that guy. My face isn't as long and I don't have a weak chin but our muscles move the same way. It really sucks. I had a passing phase with that band when I was a teenager but that's about as far as my appreciation goes. If you heard my personal work outside the favors I do for various rock bands you'd find I have a lot more in common with Billy Joel and friggin' Weird Al than anything else.

Also, I recorded the video in half time and then sped it up to normal speed to give it that strange, jerky, stop motion look. That's a technique that Marylin utilizes in a lot of his videos. My influence for that is all the early They Might Be Giants videos where they shot that way exclusively.

The Pin Head thing makes more sense when you see the outfit I was wearing... the video is too black to see much more than my collar... those were just rough comparisons anyhow, I just wanted to create a look that was generally menacing.
