Frogwoman Uma with Mares Abyss regulator + bonus scenes with a Cressi snorkel mask [11th video of Project F]

[Post 2 of 2 for today]

I presented another one today already, scroll down to check that out as well.

In this one, Frogwoman Uma is diving with a Mares Abyss regulator. In bonus scenes, she is diving with a Cressi snorkel mask

In both parts, she is wearing a Camaro Speedskin wetsuit.

The filming for this video here was done by the friendly Divemaster.

 

Frogwoman Uma with Mares Abyss regulator + bonus scenes with a Cressi snorkel mask, 1080p, 60 frames, 3:58 minutes

 

Some preview pictures:

(click to enlarge)

Video contains:

1 frogwoman, neoprene, smooth skin wetsuit, modern scuba gear, hood, no fins, one part with Cressi snorkel mask

There is a short sequence where Frogwoman Uma starts at the door and then walks into the pool. So, there is a very short “surface” scene in this one as well.

There was quite some material available for this video and I chose the best parts to make a good runtime of under 4 minutes.

The lighting was quite good here for the most part as these scenes were shot early in the day with sunlight coming through the windows.

Even we had to close the curtains so that no one would be able to see into the room 😉

 

Editing:

I used the same filters as before (white balance, 10% more brightness in the shadows, text).

The original/raw footage was longer than this cut, but I cut quite some stuff.

 

Where to watch it?

This video isn’t available in the VIP club anymore as the videos from video shoot 1 slowly leave the VIP club forever as the new videos from video shoot 6 coming in.

But it can still be purchased in a video package:

https://frogwoman.org/project-f-videos/project-f-video-packages

 

You can download the video after you donate, but only for your personal use.

Don’t share them with anyone…. anywhere!

It’s pretty simple, I had to spend a lot of money, especially on scuba gear and location rent.

A lot of my …limited… savings were used up for that.

If I don’t make enough money with these videos…..I won’t be able to make new videos.

So…. I hope you appreciate these videos and want to see more in the future.

I guess that will be the last video from that first shooting for Project F.

There are scenes where Frogwoman Uma is wearing a Dräger Panorama Nova Dive, but the visibility is very poor in this one.

There are also scenes with Frogwoman Uma wearing an MSA Millenium mask (which disguises her face completely), that might be something for another video in the future.

Frogwoman Uma with Royal Mistral double hose regulator [9th video of Project F]

Today I wanna present another video of Project F!

In this one, Frogwoman Uma is diving with a vintage Royal Mistral double hose regulator while wearing a Camaro Speedskin.

Most of the filming for this video here was done by the friendly Divemaster.

Video contains:

1 frogwoman, neoprene,  smooth skin wetsuit, vintage double hose regulator, some modern scuba gear, hood, no fins, surface shot

 

As you can see in the first picture, there is a short sequence where Frogwoman Uma starts at the door and then walks into the pool. So, there is a very short “surface” scene in this one.

There was quite some material available for this video and I edited it from the videos from both cameras, but only some seconds here were filmed by me.

 

Editing:

I used the same filters as before (white balance, 10% more brightness in the shadows, text).

The original/raw footage was longer than this cut, but I cut quite some minutes.

Just enough so the video would be under 4 minutes, so you guys in the VIP club could have another video included.

Angelo is testing vintage scuba gear [8th video of Project F]

[2nd video for today]

Today I wanna present another video of Project F!

A very special one without any frogwomen for a change.

 

Angelo is testing vintage scuba gear, 1080p, 60 frames, 7:52 minutes

Angelo, the imposter (from Thunderball), is testing scuba gear to be prepared for his Vulcan bomber hijack 😉

Some preview pictures:

(click to enlarge)

As you guys may know I rented that house for that first video shooting of “Project F”.

In the first hours, I wanted to try some gear that I never tried in a pool or lake before.

At first, I didn’t think about making a video out of it for sale as there are no frogwomen in this video.

Then I thought I would make a short video out of it for the VIP club, but since there are no frogwomen in this one… many might not be interested in it.

So, I made a longer video out of it that can be bought individually.

 

Yeah, I know not every piece of equipment would have been available to Angelo in 1965, but the regulator, the FFM, and the oxygen mask are all original vintage gear from the ’60s and ’70s.

In all scenes, Angelo is wearing a Mares Apnea Instinct wetsuit (smooth skin).

In the first segment, he is using a Royal Mistral double hose regulator.

In the second segment, he is using the Royal Mistral connected to a Technisub FFM.

In the last segment, he is using an RAF oxygen mask. The same type as in the movie. 😉

I was REALLY curious to see if the mask would work properly underwater connected to an oxygen tank. And yeah it did very well!

 

By the way: In the middle of the video I realized that my fins had damaged the foil that was attached to the pool walls and taken them off there.

And yeah, Angelo could lose 5-7 kilos more 😆

Also, Angelo had more hair in the movie 😉

 

So, perhaps some of you will find this interesting, even though there are no frogwomen in the video.

 

Note:

There is a slight audio issue in this video as I positioned the camera underwater on a plastic platform (counter-current system that wasn’t working at that time).

From time to time, you will hear some minor noise. Like very short “bumps”. No serious issue, but for that, I will reduce the price slightly.

Editing:

I used the same filters as before (white balance, 10% more brightness in the shadows, text).

The original/raw footage was about some minutes longer but contained some footage where we discussed some aspects in between the shots.

You can download these videos, but only for your personal use.

Frogwoman Uma and a Rubik’s Cube [7th video of Project F]

Sorry for the delay, some logistical problems needed to be resolved first…

Today I wanna present another video of Project F!

In this one, Frogwoman Uma is diving with a Mares Abyss regulator while wearing a Camaro Speedskin.

Both the divemaster and Uma were filming here. I wasn’t at that filming as I was actually at a train station to pick up Frogwoman Kara (video 3), and due to the storm that train got delayed big time….as I mentioned here and there.

Avon S10 gas mask dive with Frogwoman Uma [6th video of Project F]

Today I wanna present another video of Project F!

In this one, Frogwoman Uma is diving with an Avon S10 gas mask!

The nice divemaster who can be seen in video 3 is the one who is filming her, I wasn’t even in the pool room at that time as it was very late and I was pretty exhausted from the day and all the preparation beforehand.

 

Avon S10 gas mask dive with Frogwoman Uma, 1080p, 60 frames, 3:31 minutes

Frogwoman Uma is wearing a Viking drysuit here.

 

Some preview pictures:

The picture quality in the video does actually look a little better than the screenshots

(click to enlarge)

 

Video contains:

1 frogwoman, drysuit, gas mask, shallow pool, no fins, rubber, breathing with gas mask underwater

 

Lethal or non-lethal ending?

Non-lethal

As you can see it’s the first time in a Project F video that the camera is above the water, even if it was only for a brief scene, but you can hear Frogwoman Uma breathing above the surface.

This gas mask was provided by the divemaster who is also a friend of hers, he also did the filming here.

The Viking drysuit should be really great for fans of heavy gear. The suit here was also provided by the divemaster. It’s pretty wide for her, even Frogwoman Uma is very tall.

But I think she looks really good in it!

At the very end, there is also an unintended “action” scene as the attached regulator wasn’t working at the end as it should have 😉

The first minute of the video is pretty dark, but don’t worry, the rest is better like in the screenshots above.

Editing:

I used the same filters as before (white balance, 10% more brightness in the shadows, text).

The original/raw footage was longer than this cut, I left out one dark video scene.

Just enough so the video would be under 4 minutes, so you guys in the VIP club could have another video included.

Frogwomen rivalry with Frogwomen Alice and Lucy [5th video of Project F]

Today I wanna present another video of Project F!

A very special one as this contains a nice action scene 😉

 

Frogwomen rivalry with Frogwomen Alice and Lucy, 1080p, 60 frames, 4:25 minutes

Frogwoman Alice is wearing the Elios vintage style beavertail smooth skin wetsuit. For the most part, she is using a Scubapro C370, later on, a Royal Mistral Double Hose Regulator.

Frogwoman Lucy is wearing the Aquasphere Pursuit smooth skin wetsuit and a Mares Abyss regulator.

 

Some preview pictures:

The picture quality in the video does actually look a little better than the screenshots

(click to enlarge)

A short trailer that also includes scenes from this video:

Video contains:

2 frogwomen, neoprene, 2 smooth skin wetsuits, scuba peril, scuba fight, modern scuba gear, vintage scuba gear, double hose regulator

2 hoods, no fins, scuba knife, air hose slicing/cutting, air hose damage

 

Lethal or non-lethal ending for at least one of them?

Spoiler title
Non-lethal

 

I thought hard if I should publish the 4th picture above. I mean it spoils the action scene, but in the end, it has to be there so that you folks know that there is this action scene at the end.

And from that picture, you still don’t know how it’s gonna end so… I think it’s good to have it.

 

In parts of this video, I am using the small 1L Smaco tank that Lucy used in video 2 as I wanted to be at the bottom of the pool so the two frogwomen could dive above me.

For the most part of the video Frogwoman, Alice is wearing a Cressi mask with a mirror effect so that you only can see through the glass from certain angles. I think it’s a really cool mask for a mysterious frogwoman. For the last scene, they swapped their masks as I think that mask fits better to the “evil” frogwoman.

I recommend that you watch the video before you continue!

SPOILERS ahead!

(click on the “Spoiler title+” field below IF you wanna read the spoilers)

Spoiler title
I am very happy that the two agreed to make that last scene as not everyone would be OK with actually doing that. Frogwoman Lucy had only perhaps one hour or less of scuba experience (in total) and was willing to do something that nearly no diver has actually ever done. Frogwoman Alice had to react fittingly to the action, which she did really well, especially considering this was all very much improvised as time was running out quickly.

But I am happy with the outcome, especially as a scene like that wasn’t done like that, at least not to my knowledge. I mean how many scenes do you know where a hose of a frogwoman with a double hose regulator gets sliced by another diver? I know exactly one fetish video where that happens…..and there they cheat big time as the outtake hose gets cut…which isn’t a real problem for the “victim”. I do know not a single movie where that happens.

If you look closely you can see that the two hoses of her double hose regulator are different. I swapped the original hose from the ’60s (!) with a modern version that was less flexible and thicker. With the first slice, Frogwoman Lucy damaged the air hose as you can see air is already escaping. The second slice severed the hose at another place as the “salvaged” air hose showed later. Perhaps the damaged air hose would have ripped also as the air was pumping through it later on….hard to say.

And this all was just a test run for much more scripted scenes I have in mind for the next shooting! These will have a (simple) storyline with more action and “deadly” outcomes as well…. and then my camera skills and lightning skills will have improved as well 😉

I underestimated how loud the noise would be as she surfaced and the air was still blown out of that sliced hose….. Above the surface, I quickly closed the valve, but damn, that was QUITE loud! I actually filmed that as the camera was still running as I closed the valve.

Also if you look closely at the buddy breathing scene, it looks like Lucy is pulling the octopus regulator away from Alice….perhaps on purpose as a foresign of the next scene? 😉

Poseidon FFM dive with Frogwoman Uma [4th video of Project F]

Today I wanna present another video of Project F!

In this one, Frogwoman Uma is diving with a Poseidon Atmosphere FFM!

The nice divemaster who can be seen in video 3 is the one who is filming her, I wasn’t even in the pool room at that time as it was very late and I was pretty exhausted from the day and all the preparation beforehand.

Video contains:

1 frogwoman, neoprene, smooth skin wetsuit, modern scuba gear, FFM

no fins, shallow pool

 

Lethal or non-lethal ending?

Spoiler title
Non-lethal

You can really see that Frogwoman Uma enjoys diving with this mask as she playfully poses underwater for the camera.

She told me that it is her favorite diving mask so far.

This mask was provided by the divemaster who is also a friend of hers.

I am planning on buying an FFM for a possible 2nd shooting if the money reserves are big enough until then.

Perhaps this one, as you can attach any regulator to it, it looks nice and it’s not very expensive…in comparison to others:

Smaco test dive with Frogwoman Lucy [2nd video of Project F]

So, for today I have another short video where Frogwoman Lucy tested a 1L Smaco tank.

These mini scuba tanks can be filled by an adapter or by a manual pump(!). Filling these with a pump is very exhausting and takes some time, but it works.

Disclaimer: Don’t get crazy ideas! These can be used in shallow water, but if you want to really dive in open water with these, get a scuba certificate first!

And even with a full 1L tank you only have something like 5-10 minutes of oxygen. These tanks are just a fun gadget, not for real diving….

 

 

Smaco test dive, 1080p, 60 frames, 01:45 minutes

In this video, Lucy is wearing an Aquasphere pursuit smooth skin wetsuit and neoprene socks, and a hood.

I have mentioned the difficulties we had to face during the shooting (lighting, camera settings, no fins possible, etc.).

https://frogwoman.org/the-first-video-shooting-for-project-f-how-did-it-go

So, the picture quality is ok but could be better for sure.

I will work on that for the 2nd shooting.

And I will then include more close-ups and above the surface shots 😉

 

Some preview pictures:

The picture quality in the video does actually look a little better than the screenshots

(click to enlarge)

A short trailer that also includes scenes from this video:

Video contains:

1 frogwoman, neoprene, 1 smooth skin wetsuit, mini tank, modern scuba gear, hood, no fins

Yeah, the aspect that we couldn’t use fins is really a problem here, but I think Frogwoman Lucy does a good job, especially as her first dive in scuba gear was just about half an hour earlier!

The (official) harness of the Smaco tank is a rather cheap construction in a “one size fits everyone” size…. and we had to make some adjustments so the tank was positioned a little better in the second half of the video. Still, there is room for improvement so it should be possible that the tank would stay tight above the belly.

The tank was only filled one-third but still, there was quite some air left after this video, and I used it myself on another video. That one will be posted later on as well.

 

P.S.: The red valve you can see on the tank is the tank valve that regulates the airflow. The fact that it is positioned in front of the diver is an interesting aspect for possible future peril videos with that tank 😉

Frogwoman Alice tests a vintage Technisub FFM [1st video of Project F]

So, for starters, I wanna present a video where Frogwoman Alice is doing a little test dive in the pool with my favorite vintage FFM, the Technisub FFM (aka La Spirotechnique).

The mask gets oxygen from a Royal Mistral vintage double hose regulator.

She is wearing an Elios vintage style beavertail smooth skin wetsuit with matching hood and neoprene socks…also from Elios.

A short trailer that also includes scenes from this video:

This was a very much improvised video that I edited together from 2 videos.

The gear that Frogwoman Alice is wearing is near perfection for me!

The Technisub FFM is an old favorite of mine in combination with the double hose regulator.

And that Elios suit is really awesome, hard to find something better in my opinion.

*EDIT December 13* Not a big surprise, but diving with such a twin hose regulator and such a mask was new to Frogwoman Alice.

She thought it was fun even breathing from such an old vintage regulator was less comfortable in comparison with a newer one.

The dampened sound you hear pretty much at the beginning of the video is my old snorkel filling up with water and then me blowing it out.

I filmed most of the time just with a mask and snorkel to avoid having my breathing sounds from a regulator in the video.

But in that one scene, I went down a little too far…

Next time I will use a newer snorkel that closes up automatically in case it goes below the surface.

How can you watch the video?

Some background info on the video editing:

I used the video editing software Shotcut for the first time here.

The original video footage was shot in 2.7K, I rendered it down to 1080p for better file size and a picture will fewer grain effects.

I used a white balance filter to get rid of the very warm light from the pool lights, which worked really well.

I used color grading to increase the brightness in the darker sections of the video by 10% (mainly her wetsuit).

And I used an audio filter to dampen down some weird audio creaks that occurred here and there.

I experimented with a grain reduction filter for another video but as much as it helped with that grain noise….it blurred the picture. So I decided against it.

I also experimented with a sharpness filter to increase the sharpness…but that grained the picture in return 😆 ….So I decided against that as well.
