Rachel's Lift & Carry Updates

[strut170222]

Will check out that video above later today. Here's another idea, since I don't think you are shy at all:

When you get to NYC, film yourself on a public street and ask random guys and girls if you can cradle them for a contest to see how many are willing to oblige in a given time frame. I'm sure that you can find a ton of volunteers. Try to keep the camera rolling so we see the natural dialogue/reactions throughout.

You may have seen a video of a Ellen Degeneres fan cradle a bunch of people in an attempt to get on her show so that she could lift Ellen.

I like the idea strut but Kelly G is not selling vidoes on the internet, there maybe some legal issuses involved. I think Rachel would need a waiver drafted up explaining what is going on. I think she could open herself up for legal action if one of the liftees decides to be offended being in a video sold at a porn/fetish site. I would have to wonder how many people would alow themselves to be taped for that.

Thanks, Yes that crossed my mind and I should've mentioned that. In my haste I thought what are the odds.

Hey Guys,
You are both absolutely correct! I am definitely not shy, and would absolutely love to do a video like this. Unfortunately, legally, it is virtually impossible (especially somewhere as crowded as NYC). For every single video that I shoot, every participant (or individual appearing in any manner) has multiple sets of forms that need to be filled out (i.e. legal forms and model releases) and they must submit proof that they are over the age of 18 and are fully aware that these are "adult" videos. It totally stinks, but unfortunately it has to be done even if the individual only appears for a micro second.

But, I am working on trying to set something up here locally that is a "staged" situation of a similar nature... SO hopefully that will work out, and although it is not exactly the same, it will definitely be fun.

The negative side of living in a country overpopulated with Phonemen.... sorry, I meant lawyers.
