Battle of the Nations documentary available

Hi everyone. As you probably know, I was part of Team USA at the Battle of the Nations 2012 in Warsaw, Poland. My lady and I shot a lot of video footage and photographs while we were over there, and I edited it all together. What I came up with was a solid hour of fighting footage including singles,...

Re: Return to Pennsic Video

I have gotten word that the "REturn to Pennsic" video documentary is OK in the eyes of the SCA official whose job it is to review my video and say it is OK.

Just a little polishing and cleaning up some rights and permissions and it will be available soon!

Re: Return to Pennsic Video

Since I have been laid off due to damage to my office from Hurricn Sandy, I have been able to continue apace with the editing of "Return to Pennsic." I recently posted a video of interviews with Duke Paul of Bellatrix inwhich he discusses SCA combat skills, how he developed his techniques, and other...

Re: Battle of the Nations TeamUSA highlight video

Yes, I enjoyed making those videos and finding the right music for them. Don't worry, there are more to come! Aaron, there seem to be enough people in Poland who know enough English that with a few basic words and a good command of the art of pantomime, you can pretty much get along, but finding out...

Battle of the Nations TeamUSA highlight video

Here is a little highlight video of Team USA I put together. There is one error, a fellow I have id'd as Scott Frappier (in red) fighting without a Team USA surcoat is not actually him. Hopefully that won't ruin the rest of the video for you.

Hi Benjamin, this is Ervald, producer of "Return to Pennsic" (for the record, conceived before I ever heard of your project and in no way intended to compete with yours). I am sorry we never got to meet up and compare notes at Pennsic this year. May I suggest you hit the Crown Province of ...

Thanks for posting the link to the YouTube channel for my "Return to Pennsic" video project. Yes, much to his own surprise, G.A. had a great time at Pennsic. As a life coach, fitness professional, and former champion pro wrestler he found a whole lot of the SCA to be quite fascinating. His...
