Clear Rules Make Good Customers

This is a leftover from yesterday’s post. The tone of all those notices is very cordial. They hang on the entrance to a kiosk area which can be accessed from the lake, a gated swimming area, or just from the street if you don’t want to swim but just buy a snack or a drink.

The black sign reads: Thank you so much for understanding. Your kiosk team.
The turquoise sign reads: No entry to the lake. Please use the official gate.
The white sign reads: Please park your e-bikes and bicycles outside. Please use our official bike stands. Or talk to us about alternatives.
The yellow sign reads: No cannabis at the kiosk. Consumption in the presence of minors and in view of playgrounds is still forbidden.
The pink sign reads: Dogs are very welcome! But please keep them on a leash.


FOWC with Fandango: Notice

Super 7 1/2

· 8 Comments ·

It wasn’t exactly a home movie, it was the film project of a drama student in 1981. We used to shoot our films in Super 8 and they looked like home movies most of the time. I remember I did a stop-motion something, foreshadowing my experiments with minikins, but of so little note that even I don’t remember much about it let alone have a copy.

I do remember more about the project of a fellow student in which I had a minor part. I played the unfaithful girlfriend of a young soldier, discovered in bed with the new conquest. Since we didn’t have sound the situation was conveyed by having a picture of me and the boyfriend on the nightstand prominently displayed. That’s the photo above.

PS: I just realised that I have used this photo before explaining a bit more about the “movie”: https://picturesimperfectblog.com/2023/03/19/not-quite-a-slasher-movie/
