Play Work

More than a year ago we were at the beach in the midst of Frequency web series production, trying to escape reality for a few days while we waited for what I think both Monique and I knew could possibly be devastating news. It was the weekend of our 19th anniversary. We opted not to tell anyone that we were waiting on biopsy evaluation while we filmed some of the pivotal scenes of Season 2 of Frequency. It was an emotional weekend and difficult hiding it from cast and crew. Since then my brave partner and best friend has gone through a year of surgery, chemo and radiation. We have shared our journey and leaned upon family, friends and strangers. Our crew has been there with us, both emotionally and physically. Our community/crew support has been overwhelming. We have both come out the other end with a forever changed view on life, love and friendship. I wanted to return to the beach for a lot of reasons. For the story line is was a necessity. For me, personally, I wanted Monique and I to have this beautiful setting no longer tethered to the negative. I wanted my love of waves, ocean, sand and surf to be rejoined to the positive. I wanted this to be the place I celebrated 20 years of living with my best friend/ass kicking' Cancer warrior, sharing work and play. And, she let me play. They let me play. I am lucky to have such a wonderful partner. Everyone should be so lucky to have such a love and such wonderful friends.  Our crew of five worked hard and played as they worked. I truly love these gals and everyone who has helped me get this whacked story out of me noggin and into the daylight. :-) <3

Frequency season 2 ep 3 and thanks

Just in time for Thanksgiving!
I have spent the last few weeks being thankful for my life. 
I get to spend it with someone who supports me and loves me unconditionally.
She brings me joy, laughter and amazing experiences, like creating Frequency.

I have also been getting used to the idea that I battled cancer this year.
I am amazed that I get up these days and get to do fun meaningful work.

This web series is one of the things I am grateful for in my life. It is truly a DIY effort.
I cannot tell you how blown away I am that nearly 400,000 people have taken a few moments to watch Frequency. 

Thanks for watching and thanks for sharing.
Here it the episode "Figured it out yet?"

Frequency Real Life





Real life events have had KV Works running fast. We have been keeping clients and bill collectors happy. 

The next episode is burning a hole in the edit station. 
It will be posted in time for Thanksgiving Holiday viewing. 

I know this is the longest gap in posting episodes. Bare with us a little longer. 

We are also having issues with YouTube. It has to do with their new identity policy. Seems they like being evil these days. 

In the meantime, enjoy a few production pictures.
