Disaster!

Remember the golden era of disaster movies...Airport 76, Poseidon Adventure, and so on. Well, I don't. But I still think disaster movies are cool, so we made some this weekend. The first of the series is "Rock in the Road". Check it out here.



You will notice a whole bunch of home made special effects in this movie. First, the road is Oak Knoll Road in the Napa Valley. The aerial stunts are performed via Mommy's invisible thread. The pyrotechnics are courtesy of a scented candle. All of the sound editing and effects are homemade as well. Still, I think it's my most professional movie yet.

Great production! Gotta watch for those rocks in the road. One question: Potty car? Why? Which one?
Love,

The potty car is a Hot Wheels car in the shape of a toilet bowl. It was a lovely gift Aidan received some years ago.
