Looking and comments that don't seem to make any sense...wondering if they got hacked or something.

Can't load the pics to picasa right now.  Talia tackled her fear, now to pour her head so I can get to work...

Quote
She ought to have been the breakout star of Aliens as the little girl, Newt, who defies all odds to escape from a remote planetoid overrun by lethal extra terrestrials, but Carrie Henn never saw her name in lights again. Now the actor is to return to the screen almost 30 years on from the release of James Cameron’s brutal space thriller in a fan film set in the Alien universe.

Henn, 39, will play Anne Jorden, young Newt’s mother, in a flashback sequence for Alien Identity, which is being directed by Adam Sonnet. Newt herself will be portrayed by the film-maker’s wife Elle Viane Sonnet.

“I am looking forward to working on Aliens from a different perspective,” said Henn, who has been active on fan convention circuits in recent years. “I can’t wait to hear what all the fans think!”

Ricco Ross, who played space grunt Private Robert Frost in Aliens, is also returning for the new film. He will play the role of Richard Frost, the late Robert’s brother, as well as taking a producer’s credit.

Fans of the Alien series have long speculated on how Henn’s career might have developed had her character not been written out by Alien 3 director David Fincher at the start of the film. Many remain angry at the way Newt was so quickly dispensed with after audiences had spent so much time rooting for her and Sigourney Weaver’s Ellen Ripley in Cameron’s film.

Henn is known for the line “They mostly come at night … mostly”. According to Alien fan sites she was discovered by casting agents while living with her US air force-employed father on a base in Lakenheath, England, in the mid-80s. The agents sent a photograph to producers and the eight-year-old girl won the part after auditioning at Pinewood Studos.

The Alien saga, which began with Ridley Scott’s Alien in 1979 and has spanned four films and two Alien vs Predator spin-offs, not to mention the pseudo-prequel Prometheus, is also set for a big screen return. In fact, Newt but might still be alive in District 9 director Neill Blomkamp’s proposed film, which will see Weaver returning as Ripley. The South African film-maker said in February that he planned to ignore Alien 3 and Alien: Resurrection to return to the “Freudian nightmare” of the earlier films, though he later appeared to backtrack.

Alien Identity takes place 14 years after the events of Aliens, which was released in 1986. Producers are currently crowdfunding via Kickstarter at www.AlienTwoPointFive.com.

It takes a considerable amount of bravery and trust to sit through this, though.  Did it slow, covered the eyes lightly, then worked on other areas, then fully, making it completely dark, then worked to the mouth (which covers part of the nose) last. 



She almost lost it when the power went out, killing the movie she was listening to.

It does take some trust of the plasterer - I did it once in college.

Have I ever shown you the devil mask I made from my face in college?

I've only done it twice (and you have one of the results), and don't think I could sit through it with anyone but hEt.  The alginate version is actually worse than the plaster.  Partly my whole propensity to panic whenever my face is covered (thanks mom), maybe that overblows the experience for me some.

Want to do it ONE more time, but kinda have a catch-22.  The level of detail I want to go to, I'm the only one I know that could do the actual work.   

Don't think we've seen the devil mask, no.

I'll look around and see if there's a pic, or else make one.

For me, it helped that I'd grown up with a dad w/ no sense of personal boundaries/space and spent a lot of time in Dr.'s offices getting treated - so I have no trouble going limp and waiting when I've no reason to fear the person handling me (or Daddy, because putting up a fight was counterproductive).  I rule my passions; they do not rule me.

Hey, I manage to strap on a mask and fight panic every year.  ;)

Well, most years.  Occasionally I don't cover my nose/mouth area, which is where the panic sets in.  Last year was the worst...

Maybe one day Talia will be qualified, call it a hunch.

Frustrating.  I've posted about a million mask shots over the years, and can never find them - and I had to have them on my machine to post, and have the drive from the previous one as an external.  So a search should turn up a few files and/or a folder named "Mask" - I'm not usually that sloppy.  Searched my machine, I have.

Probably never had a shot of the devil anyway, or you'd remember, Uno.  I think not hard to find the original or the one paper mache copy, though, and a camera is right here beside me from the picture I took of BA yesterday...

The Isle of the Deep is really not a single creature but a colony of thousands of individual tubules, an aquatic vector of the Mind Worm which terrorizes Planet's continents. Over its lifetime certain tubules secrete a tough, gluelike substance which hardens to form the characteristic shell that floats the colony and creates the appearance of a rogue island.
~Lady Deirdre Skye 'A Comparative Biology of Planet'
