I've filmed the kids singing a little bit and they are too young to know what's really going on, so I really don't like to do it too often or extensively.


But that's the beauty of it. Ordinarily with a child actor, the parents pay for acting and music lessons, travel and lodging, you name it, all out of your pocket. Then if the kid earns any money, it's all his when he comes of age! But if you can stage and monetize family videos, the kids get nothing.

But also I just found this:

So it's a steep hill getting rich that way.

The “he always gets pussy” part was hilarious and unexpected.

Haha, thanks, glad my sense of humor as a 13-year-old surprised you.

Yeah, our old movies were pretty violent. I'll tell you a sad story...my brother had a very close friend who, tragically, died as a young adult (drug O.D.). We found some home movies we had made (not any of these ones) and my mom was like, "Oh how amazing, I'll have to share these with his family." But every video clip had him being stabbed, shot, maimed, etc. So we were like, um, never mind.

Hahaha those movies were about as violent as watching Bugs Bunny and the Three Stooges, it's the reaction that counts! Kids and summer, what a combo. And watching them now makes it all funny and endearing. Lukas, I know we first touched base during your Amherst years but the adventures of 00 Moron could have been filmed in my neighborhood decades earlier with my brother & friends. Am I glad they weren't, would probably shudder now at the sight of us then! Gotta love your crude early attempts at wedding film + music. Spielberg-type beginnings and stuff. Thanks for sharing.

These were fun, loved em. I did the same thing. I remember when I got a video titler so I could do titles professionally I thought oh my this is it, I've made it. Fun stuff LK!

I found these silly and endearing -- thanks for swallowing your pride and sharing them, Lukas! I especially loved trying to pick out the film music bits...sometimes you switched very quickly between very different things!
