I'm in a film... it's not a porno hahaha, but a girlie Burlesque film. I am guessing that isn't what you want though.

It depends on the act.

This is a clean idea, I am looking for, thank you! :p

What type of act was it that you performed? I've never seen a burlesque show but I have read about them. You can PM me about it if you like if it's uncomfortable to mention it.

If it's nothing too risqué, and you'd be willing to provide me it, then great!

I had mentioned to Miss Lolita if any of the pin up girls around here perhaps had themselves performing in a show, like a WWII event, or a photoshoot on film. If any of the ladies of the lounge have something similar to this, (not too risque), and are willing to provide it, please do! :)

And for anyone else who has footage relating to the lounge or the types of things that are discussed on film, please do share and provide it!

I'd like to put something together with it all

Miss Joeri, would you be able to provide some of your reenactment movies featuring some of the loungers?

Or sir Johnny Eager with his footage from the Queen Mary. ;)

Digital camera recorded video? Have loads of tapes of you and your friends dressed up in their vintage best playing in the snow? Walking down the street? If you have it or know where it can be found, I hope those can be kind enough to provide it to me. :)

Do you have a solid copy on a tape or DVD?

If so, if you'd be willing to share it, I'd love a copy. :)

Yes, I have a solid DVD copy. The whole episode is an hour long. Do you just want the footage of the plotting room?

Can't promise anything but I will see if the BF can halp me out on this one!

To Miss Jitterbug and Miss Sis, certainly!

I need all the video I can get!

To Miss Sis, just where you are featured is what I need, and if any other members are also featured. The complete episode will be fine if you cannot get that clip of yourself.

To Miss Haze, footage of you preparing for a show would be wonderful!

Does ANYONE ELSE have footage of themselves in vintage wear, whether it be a home movie, a feature in a film, commercial, documentary, etc, all would be great!

Thank you again to all who have responded! This project is off and running quickly! I'm glad it is. :D

I'm still looking for footage of members in their vintage best. Mr. Poe has been generous enough to go through some trouble to obtain some footage. Lots of responses, but no footage to speak of yet. Anyone who has video of themselves in vintage dress or vintage atmosphere, if you would be kind enough to hand me a copy, would greatly be appreciated. :)

I've been in a number of promotional trailers for the local film society -- such as this one: http://www.saltwaterfilmsociety.org/trailers/mmt_1.mov

I'm the gal hanging the washing on the clothesline (as filmed in my actual backyard). You can also spot me buying a ticket and walking into the theatre, and making an emphatic point from the audience.
:eek:fftopic: I love this spot! The guy did put his bucket down in the theatre, I had to look. Was the adorable Scottie an homage to Alfred Hitchcock?

Back on topic, I will look through my piles of movies. I have been occasionally dressing vintage since a child and quit acting 10 years ago so it is just a matter of finding the appropriate tapes. This sounds fun!

So... being an extra on Walker Texas Ranger doesn't count? :p


Well, if that's all you got and there's a shot where you can actually be seen for longer than a split second, he might take it. I don't know how "vintagey" the D/FW area during the 1990s would be though. :rolleyes:

Ah, I remember Walker. I spent two and a half seasons as an extra on that series, always playing the same character. I was one of the regular crew they called in whenever they needed Texas Rangers to fill out the Ranger office and crime scenes out on location. Worked anywhere from one to three days per episode depending on what was required. There were some long days and less than desirable locations, but those were some good times and great people to work for. It also was a fantastic opportunity to watch a successful TV series being made over an extended time period. Then there were the unexpected perks, like the day I got to watch Rod Taylor work, playing Alex Cahill's alcoholic father. What a professional.

Cheers!

I'm looking for as much "vintage" related footage as possible. A home video where you are seen and/or others are seen in vintage wear, doing a vintage activity of some sorts. If you were in a period film and have spotted yourself in the background, or if you were a lead. Footage of activities of other people in vintage wear, and yourself that wasn't filmed by you, but someone else (like I did). Anything that has you and/or others wearing your vintage clothes or engaging in Golden Era actitity is exactly what I'm looking for. I only ask if it would be possible to get a copy or if you wouldn't mind handing me the original, I can get it back to you without a scratch on it. :)

I've been on a bumpy road corresponding with someone away from the lounge with some real nice footage and would like to get some more from others here. Again, if you have any footage of yourselves that you don't mind parting with, please by all means let me know. I don't want this idea to pass by. I'll tell you what I will do with it once I have it. I'll watch it, and see if it's what I was looking for. It'll probably sit a while on my computer. Eventually what I'd like to do is compile it all. It will probably eventually be seen by everyone here. I won't depict anyone negatively. I like to be positive.

This is an unoffical request. It is by no means related to the lounge, MK, or any of the bartenders and moderators. It is strictly for my personal use.

I was an extra in a film with Eric Roberts in 1990, called "The Ambulance". That's me in the nightclub scene, in the far back corner of the room, in the dark with my back to the camera, pretending to play pinball. Yeah, I'm a movie star. My career really took off after that.

I'll have to take a look at it. Thanks. If anyone can support my search of members here being filmed, I'd be most grateful. :)

Oh, I'm sure you'll recognize me. My butt is only slightly larger now than it was 17 years ago. Hey, it was fun. They gave us pizza. Whoopeedoo. Those lights are HOT!
