So, it’s time for the first video of the 2nd video shoot of “Project F”!
As I mentioned in the previous post the videos from that shoot will be pretty short, but action-packed as we tried some simple action scenarios.
Frogwomen Kara and Lucy in “Scuba Spy”, 1080p, 60 frames, 2:25 minutes
Some preview pictures:

+ a short teaser:

Video contains:
2 frogwomen, neoprene, 2 smooth skin wetsuits (one of them vintage style-beavertail), scuba peril, scuba fight, modern scuba gear, regulator steal, hoods (2 of 2), fins, scuba spy
Lethal or non-lethal ending for at least one of them?

Background info:
I do know 2 movies/TV shows that have this “Diver takes pictures and gets attacked” scenario. James Bond in Thunderball and the frogwoman in the “Silk Stalkings” TV show.
And in the future, I wanna make a version with a detailed script where a frogwoman takes pictures of some secret stuff and gets attacked by an evil frogwoman who wants to stop her (and kill her).
For this video, I used only some basic instructions on what the two should and could do and it was a one-shot without any re-shoots.
My camera was a little shaky in the first few seconds. I’m pretty new to the whole filming aspect and it’s not easy to totally focus on the tiny camera screen when such a scene happens in real life right before you 😉
It was also not easy to follow these two with the camera, but I think it worked out quite well even though it’s a bit of a challenge to move around in 3 dimensions and stay in a good position to the moving action.
I am very happy about how the 2 frogwomen (Kara + Lucy) did such an action scene underwater! I mean the two have basically no scuba experience and only had that mini scuba session from the first video shoot back in December. I am glad they returned for another video shoot!
They were really brave and the scene worked out pretty fine in my opinion.
Frogwoman Lucy really likes to steal regulators and likes to be a scuba villainess 😉
We had only 5 hours to shoot and a LOT of time was needed to assemble the gear and all that. And I wanted to get several quick scenarios done in that time to gain experience in shooting underwater action scenes.
I will write detailed scripts for the next shooting, as long these videos generate enough money to cover at least the expenses.
Yeah, the video here is short, but it has a rather long scuba fight (90% of the runtime). In the end, most scuba fights in movies or TV shows are much shorter in the end.
With a detailed script, I wanna make a video with this scenario that will have at least 5 or 6 minutes.
But we made a 2nd version of this fight, I will post that in the next weeks as well.
Fun fact:
At first, the fight was supposed to be about the camera but that quickly floated out of sight and mind (can be seen on the surface in the last seconds).
Next time I will need to add some weight to the camera 😉

Editing:
I used some filters (10% more brightness in gamma and gain, text).

Where to watch it?
It will be available again in the VIP club in April, alongside the other content!
Here is a quick overview of the content of this month:

You can download these videos in the VIP club, 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:
All that scuba gear, location rent, and the money for the frogwomen….
If I don’t make enough money with these videos….. I won’t be able to make new videos at some point.
So…. I hope you appreciate these videos and want to see more in the future!

This was really good! Definitely a lot better lighting and it looks nice having more pool room. I didn’t notice any issues with the original audio, both sounded good. Both ladies look great in their wetsuits. 😉 I look forward to your future work!
Thanks! Yeah, sunlight & big windows really helped with the lighting in comparison with the location of the first video shoot.
Just a curious question did they ( the ladies 😏) watch any scuba fight like the infamous thunderball scuba fight scene. For inspiration.
I did send some links to them previous to the video shoot (incl. to the final battle of Thunderball).
Some inspiration is never wrong, especially as scuba fights can only be found in just a few movies.
How is there reaction 😏 (especially the ladies).
Well, actually we didn’t discuss their reaction to those videos.
All I can say is that they enjoyed the video shoot and that Frogwoman Lucy really likes to be the villainess.
She seems to have a taste for stealing regulators and cutting air hoses (more from that in the next weeks).
Thanks for the reply 👌
WOW, the quality and the Performance of the frogwomen are amazing! The ger really into it.
Looking forward to the next clips.
Thanks! I was (positively) surprised how they fought with each other, especially as they are very new to scuba (without certification).
Next time we should be able to make the fights (even) more aggressive with some detailed scripts.
Lucy is coming across as a total badass !
The scene is great and I have to say I thought the underwater sound was fine. It certainly didn’t detract from the enjoyment.
Really glad the ladies came back to do another shoot with you, it shows they trust you and have some commitment to this.
Yeah, Lucy is quite the villainess so far. Wait until you see my favorite video from that video shoot.
She has scuba knife in that one 😉
