Trump
What can one say but that even thinking of him as president is a declaration of war against indigenous peoples...

New year, new Dreams ~ Same Me, Same Desires
New Year, New Dreams
Same Me, Same desires
Oh, I can feel it, it is so close! This is the year we go for it! I am just buzzing with delight, have the ideas for stuff in my head and am so ready to begin!
Buttercream is a short that I plan on making this Spring. There was a buttercream ruffle video I just loved to watch and it gave me a peaceful feeling sort of to watch it. I have been wanting to create my werewolf film and wondered how to explain a character that does not appear in the movie itself. I wanted to somehow do a buttercream video too so they merged in my mind. I can see it in my mind and think I can edit it the way I want so it should be pretty good! I still need to find the right mood music since it is a silent one, but other then that it is planned for this Spring.
Cakes StepByStep is an amazing cake artist and I absolutely adore this one. It always makes me feel like I am being hugged!
S'happens is my new werewolf film that I just created a bit ago, not part of the Bride of Sorrows horror trilogy. After renting American Werewolf in London, it made me want to see one set in Alaska. Then it occurred to me "hey, you are a film maker and writer, do it! Hehe, so I began but it began to drift away from what I think of as 'American Werewolf" and became a werewolf film instead. But I think everyone who loves the American Werewolf ones will like it too. With a cast of 8 it should be manageable as my first feature length film! We bought special effect makeup to practice the looks and scars of werewolf attack, so should be a fun weekend!
American Werewolf in London original trailer
YouTube playlists:
Frugal-ish is my YouTube channel idea that will be a playlist on my channel since I don't think it will have enough to be it's own one yet. My tribe lived and wasted nothing, that is such an amazing concept to me! I really want to become this way, though it is hard when you were raised in the Western society! but it can be found again, it is in my blood and so many others are frugal that together we can do it!
Part of it will be growing your own food, using the city land plots! How and when to apply, what to try, see how it goes over the summer! It should be a good series. Along with that there will be ways to save money, I am sure these are all already said somewhere, but it will be fun to do them anyway!
Colonizing Methodologies is an idea that should be talked about more, so mine will be called Proudly Prehistoric. There I plan skits to show ideas and writing as well. I think the problem we as Indigenous face is how to politely explain it is not ok to be doing this! Talking about things that need to be talked about, but without assigning blame, but solutions! Part is a fake reality tv show where we are finding one family willing to go back home. It should be a good series, not hateful at all but honest and direct about it.
This was my arty piece on my iPhone, after reading tons of advice for newbies, it made me laugh at some of the advice so this happened... My Mayor of Attu novel is meant to kick off the whole Bride of Sorrows series, 1000 stories told in many forms! So far it has my Motley Crue video I shot at their concert, the last ones ever... so love them!
Arts~N~Craftsy is one where I show the stuff we are trying, all beginning stuff so nothing major, but fun to share and see how much better we get over time! I love watching certain ones on Youtube so this is one I do myself, sort of giving back the love...
Behind the Scenes is where I plan to put the film related stuff. I am sure I will be learning a lot (i.e. making a ton of mistakes) so will share the ups and downs.
You can see a lot of them planned but each one not really big so will keep them together so my channel is at least interesting and full rather then scarce...
I am planning on getting my equipment soon to begin, should be 'warp speed' once I get the equipment! I am so ready!
Ohhh, almost forgot!! I am entering this contest and so should you if you have a short planned!
Short Film major prize
I will be entering my Vestiges idea! It is a short story turned tv series that I plan to do soon too... part of the BOS (Bride of Sorrows) stuff... I think it is important for us to put orselves "out there" even if we dont think we will win. Or even ones we know we won but didnt :p where we loved the idea so much, it is important to try! so, the deadline is end of February i believe, it says on the page, so time to get it together! With $800,000 us dollars I could get the costumes and sets created for it all since this sort of begins (and ends) it all...
Ok, so I should probably head off and get some work done :p take care! hugs ~Sea

Fallout 3
Fallout 3
I love Bethesda games, but they tend to be buggy if you use a lot of mods and I love mods! So, I found ways to get it to work... I found this advice around the web but it suggested getting the fatman and blowing yourself up. I usually am overloaded since I carry lots of change of clothes, an outfit for each occasion ~just because it is the apocalypse does not mean we should not dress nice! too much trouble to get back to Megaton to get my missile gun thingy.. so do this instead and works just as well:
CRASHES WHEN SAVING: I had this one just happen in my fallout 3 game, new one to me and turned out to be easy to fix where it crashed when I tried to save my game...
I had some conflicting mods that did not seem to matter much until I reached certain spots then it would just crash and burn! Hit the "f" key so you can see yourself, then the ~ (tilda I think it is called) to bring up the console, click on your character and you should see your name top center, make sure it is you and not someone close to you. type "kill" and watch yourself die. Almost immediately you are restarted and can now save normally.
"Merge" wont work quite right: I am not sure how it happens, but sometimes if you switch things around and redo your merged list with fo3edit, you get an error. I read to close out and save the merged list you did. Open your fomm, click the merged esp then close it and launch the fo3edit again. it should be at the end of the list, right click and "add masters", select all your mods and this time it should add them all without a problem. If you dont see some mods you installed, this could be why! So, always do it and fix the problems that occur until it likes your mod list order, should not take long to fix it up.
TOO SEXY OUTFITS: If you like the sexy look of the outfits but suddenly find some are "too sexy", it is most likely the Lings mod. It is the Red jumpsuit (forget what it is called) but set it to zero or delete, I forget which I did, but it is easy to figure out when you are looking at it. Then it goes back to the sexy but more modest version instead of the boring vanilla clothes.
I do have Fallout 4, but suffer from "re-start-itis" so haven't actually finished 3 yet. I do suggest you try them if you are looking for a good game to play. You do need some patience to get past the bugs, but once you do it is a fun game! There is a huge community so any problem you have, someone else probably already had it and the solution is posted so not too frustrating!

Intro Coming Soon
Intro coming soon...
My real life friends are the ones commenting and one mentioned I tend to skip around a lot and that it might be hard to follow if they don't know me already.
I use this as a chat space more then thinking out a blog post then writing it, so it jumps around as my mind does as I sit here. So I will create an intro to help explain my projects, dreams, etc. so reading this will make more sense.
I use the same beginning and ending "labels" for this blog: Attu and Unangan. Attu is where I am from and we are called Unangan. I want to create a page on Attu, hopefully featuring pics I take there myself! I applied for funding to get there so hopefully one of them will happen soon! We have a unique perspective and I hope to show that even through tragic times we retain our beauty and spirit!
Bride of Sorrows (BOS) is the theme I am launching our company with, M TOMA Inc. is my new media company. We plan to create Unangan-themed media, novels, computer games, graphic novels, animated movies and films based around the BOS theme. It connects 1,000 different lives lived and takes place in the ancient past, pre-contact past (a bit closer to our times), modern times and future times! It has a lot of content and will hopefully create interest in our other projects.
I am currently working with someone local to help create a True Crime TV show. It is a valuable experience for me and I hope everyone gets to watch it soon! Networking is important for those just starting out! It inspired me to create a sort of true crime tv show of my own! so we may produce that one together or I may do it on my own name, not sure yet.
My new horror movie, I thought of a cool werewolf one while watching American Werewolf in London the other night. I love those movies and thought it would be so cool to have an "American Werewolf in Alaska"! then it occurred to me: hey, you are a script writer, go for it! but as I wrote down my ideas it ventured away from the American Werewolf style too much for me, but I still love it. Once I get it properly scripted I will begin trying to get funding to make it. It will be perfect experience for my BOS stuff! This one will give me excellent practice making special effects!
I think I also talk about general life stuff, like trying to become vegan, being more frugal, and other stuff that occurs to me as I sit here thinking of you guys. I hope to inspire and encourage woman to try writing/directing/creating more! I just turned 50 so you are never too old to dream! or try!

Buttercream
Buttercream
What is it about buttercream ruffles that makes me love it so..
This one I think is so wonderful, it is like being hugged!!!
Except for the top, so wish it was done in this style:
I so want to be able to decorate cakes! I think my talent is more for writing/directing then baking and decorating though... I will upload the pics of my 50th birthday cake where we tried to copy her cake but in purple and black... hehe, epic fail I think it is called :p But I blame the hot kitchen from cooking the b-day dinner hehe...
I found a good vegan buttercream and we made a perfect batch the other day. We did not try the ruffles just regular spreading it on, but it was so yummy! I think that fondant cant match it for looks, though some fondant decorations are adorable, that is true. I think true cake beauty though is making it with buttercream! I can remember at a sleepover and the older sister had made the birthday cake and it was amazing. She opened her own bakery even, she was so good at it!
I was remembering that because at that same sleep over we had done the spooky listening to that Edgar Allen Poe Halloween tape of Tell-Tale Heart... funny how associations form in your mind! I think it is what makes a good writer/director is knowing associations like this exist and using that to help connect your story. It is funny though, because I do come to YouTube and watch buttercream ruffle decoration to relax and unwind. My favorite one can relax my neck muscles as I watch, just get such a calm sweet feeling like being hugged somehow. The 2 colors I guess, arms intertwined or something sweet like that... Or maybe it is the topper, the candy cane in a heart shape that makes me think it though I dont think that top is elegant enough for the cake :p
I wonder when I will make a perfect buttercream ruffle cake. I can picture it, this perfect cake. Maybe I will do it in a movie, a sad, lonely lady walking in the slow aimless way you do when you have no where to go to right then. Not quite slumped, she is not depressed, just feeling a bit lonely. Since my newest movie I am writing is a werewolf horror one, could be that it is close to the next full moon... But she is sad and walking and sees an open bakery so stops in for a coffee. The decorator has a big order with 4 cakes to do the lady half watches as she sips her coffee.
Yeah, it is half interesting but not enough to pull her dark thoughts away, so she sips her coffee slowly. When you have nowhere to go, you can take all the time in the world over a hot cup of coffee. But then the lady gets to her last cake and begins doing it differently. No rolling of fondant here, she has a piping bag full of frosting. It is shades of blue and as she begins piping the lady notices her more. Somehow the piping of the buttercream captures her interest and the coffee is held halfway to her mouth as she watches the lady sweep in slow waves up the side of the cake.
The lady decorating the cake has found a zen moment now, buttercream ruffles are tiring but look so good. She feels like she is accomplishing something real, something kind even. She feels it strongly and looks up and catches a customer, her only customer looking at her.
The lady sipping coffee is almost holding her breath, wanting this peaceful moment to last. The lady decorating the cake somehow banished the sadness away. She wants to offer the goddess a prayer for this decorator and at that moment the lady looks right at her as if she heard her. Their eyes dazzle a moment before the spell is broken. They both look away at the same time. the customer, no longer sad and lonely leaves a large tip and exits as the scene fades to black...

Hot Glue Gun Fun!
Hot Glue Gun fun!
I wish I had pics to show you since I am having so much fun with this! But I am waiting to spray paint them until Spring when I can use my shed, snowed like a foot overnight.
She is very talented and got me interested in trying to create glue gun stuff. I am still on basic masks since I bought a very cheap glue gun to play with to see if I liked it or not. Turns out I do! So now I am planning to buy a better one this Spring. She did a review of hot glue guns too!
I also plan to do some of the props with it, like in this video:
and this:
Except instead of that pretty tree, I would do something more creepy, like skeletons for my Nether Realm! Learning I can do it on a budget but keep the big dreams! Once I get the $$$ I am ready to go!
That is always what they say though, have contingency plans 1-5 at least! Depending on budget! So, right now I am at the empty pockets budget, but have a plan for several budgets!
your basic film making kit & crew a 3-level guide
But I think I can do the make up effects by myself if we end up super low budget! I got inspired by a few of the Nyx Face Awards entries, especially one by Glam & Gore, her toxic mermaid one. Here is her newest one where she uses hot glue instead of the gelatin, but now I have 2 options to play around with!
here is an example of our real culture:
But I plan to make it up based on my own sci-fi ideas and love of steam punk. I believe that we traded with all the Peoples around the Pacific Ocean. How could we travel so far? Half talent and half magic, I am talking real life magic. I want to create the Pre-Contact tribe, full of magic and mystery! I love steam punk and dark and creepy so will have a ball designing my realms!
I am getting a lot better with the glue gun! I think by the time we get the stuff to make the face casts that I will be really good at the hot glue gun! I will post pics as soon as I get some! I have one on my phone but it is not uploaded yet. My first "ice" mask... came out pretty good!
Do you know of a make up or special effect artist that you think I should check out? Let me know in the comments section!

Statistics for Blog
Statistics
Wow, was checking out the statistics and the one with the most views is the one titled "true war criminals". Not sure if the title did it or because it was talking of Europe.
It is strange how life works, I do not understand the Western World, it just does not make sense to me! I always say to all the 200,000,000 "good" people living on our lands to go back to Europe and I myself will personally deal with the dozen 'bad" ones left...
The blinders they put on to not see what is happening to us leaves them unable to see the "them" is now aiming at them...
It is why we need to teach #PreEco mentality!
We need to begin with honest dialog!
I know it is hard since Europeans have no defense for what they did. It was wrong, period.
Let us acknowledge that and begin from there! First steps are hard, but it must be taken! Forget all the propaganda that was forced down your throats and think for yourself!
propaganda definition
A good place to start is with a philosopher of European descent named Renee Descartes.
Isnt that a beautiful thought? No one wants to be told the answers or what to think!
or in other words "do not let the things that happen to you become who you are" quote from my mom...
So hopefully those who clicked on the war criminal one will also see this one and understand...

Whenever anyone has offended me, I try to raise my soul so high that the offense cannot reach it
or in other words "do not let the things that happen to you become who you are" quote from my mom...
So hopefully those who clicked on the war criminal one will also see this one and understand...

Script Done, Now What??
Script done, now what??
This is about where i find myself, so ready to go but still lacking a good equipment setup. I know there are many of us in this same boat too! They say you can use your iPhone if all else fails and I am seriously looking at accessories for it...
Wow, but hope it does not come to that. I decided that I would apply for a documentary grant since there are so many stories to tell here! I planned on doing a show based on a short story I wrote for my daughters. Or naming it after that story and it would be on all things Alaska Indigenous, focusing on Unangan. So that is alternate plan b-12, hehe...
So, how do we stay sane while waiting for a break? We keep busy! It is too easy to fall into a slump when you see all the bad shows getting funded! And crowdfunded too! I am surprised at what people fund...
Network is the advice that makes the most sense! I went on Craiglist to try networking and got lucky my first attempt!
I want to get a job at this place since I read it is a good way to meet people you need to meet in the industry!

My equipment still consists of my iPhone. I plan on saving and buying the journalist kit from another blog entry first. Just to be able to carry it easily and go! There is a series I want to do around town, just for practice, and post it on my YouTube channel. There are a couple I want to do, so much in planning stages! But I think it will help when I finally sit and explain the whole package to the people I wanted to fund me, that they will see I put a lot of thought into it!
Keep active because it is really good for your well-being in general and for your creative process too!

BOS Thoughts (Bride of Sorrows)
BOS thoughts...
I am in such a good mood, I can feel it all happening, like it is in the air. I guess because I realized that while I do tend to dream big, that I can make it happen in other ways too!
My first idea was that I wanted a mostly Unangan cast. That I would be asking them to learn and "stuff" with very little actual pay. So I figured I needed a place for them to stay while they were in town.
I love browsing the real estate section, it is very fun for me to dream up buying properties and what I would do with them. So when I saw this one, my mind immediately went to where I would stash my crew and cast while we learned the craft:
20 room "hostel"
I included it as part of my budget for the "trilogy of terror" films meant to kick off my media company. Most probably don't live in town or cant afford to not work while learning my stuff so figured it was a "must have" for us...
The studio space I wanted is off market right now, not sure if sold or just expired entry. but it was a nice fenced building with 2 stories, 5 offices on one part and most of it was a 2-story warehouse that would be perfect for my film studio set up... that was like $1,500,000 but mentioned to be taken seriously as a new industry we do need our own building.
But we figure we can get a small office at least and there are so many for lease too that it should be possible to find something that works for us. Then wait to buy nice big building until we get a big break with a film!
I am doing my best to make the true crime series interesting! It will help get me known even if it is only on the web at first before being bought. From there I am scripting the werewolf one. It should be a nice low budget horror to show my style and get us known even more. By then I hopefully can convince the people I asked for funding to decide soon :p
So, do dream big, plan it big but have contingency plans too!
~Do dream of a nice special effects course but begin learning what you can on your own! Youtube is full of people willing to share what they know, so it is possible to find different styles and find one you like. Until you can afford to bring them up yourself, get some practice in. It is fun to try new things remember!
~Do dream of a 3 camera set up like you read of but practice on the iPhone. use what you got!
~Do believe in yourself and your goals! Dream but work hard too!
My BOS (Bride of Sorrows series) is progressing nicely in my head. So much to do for it, but it will get there! Blood (my tribe's blood), sweat (working hard here :p ) and tears (of pure joy at my art !!!) hehe, I will capture them!
Soon...

Ohhh and speaking of Contests...
Ohhh and speaking of Contests...
I cant wait to find out how I did in one I entered awhile ago. I think they decide the winners soon!!
Imagining Indigenous Futurisms contest
I wrote the story then turned it into a tv series to go along with the BOS theme! I cant wait to hear how I did though. Even if I did not win, it is all good because I have a story to show for a new crowdfund campaign and for grant applications...
Feeling lucky :p

Stop the Insanity!!
Stop the Insanity!!
Wow, what is with the spy mentality with everything nowadays? You cant do anything anymore without it wanting you to link everything together.
Tried to enter a contest but I cant install instagram on this computer because it has a different email attached to it and I have not linked them together...
Ugh!
Seriously, stop it!
All I wanted was to enter a contest to win some cool art supplies. Did I think I would win, no, but that is not the point. The fun in contests is in trying and hoping and seeing what everyone else has done...

#OutsiderSeries
not worth the chance to win a few art supplies to allow people access to my stuff... was reading an article about the newest Smart tv's and their agreement thingy... that we allow them to access everything of ours just to get a good picture.
It is all part and parcel of them coming here and stealing our lands... corruptness breeds corruptness... grrrrrrr...
so here is a fun quick coloring of her art... enjoy!
Ohhh and dont forget to use #PreEco :p
