Raina - I love how for most of the first video it's really ambiguous where you are swimming. It doesn't look like the ocean or a lake but you can't see tiles or lines of a pool, makes it kind of dreamy. Really strange thing to notice, I know, but I thought it was cool :P

Going to be making a new music in the next couple weeks. Writing ideas down now... sort of like a script.

@julessweetie: She looks like she's having a lot of fun! The footage is a little shaky though, and actually makes me feel a little nauseous with how shaky it is. Just some feedback. :)

@Marla: Cool! You have such long legs. What do you think of swimming in a Mertailor tail? And how's your world trip coming along?

Hey Spindrift :)

It was actually the first time I used my underwater camera ;) lol!

Once her tail is done, we are going to do a more professional underwater shoot...this was just for fun ;) Thanks for the feedback though! A underwater photographer I AM NOT! lol ;)

I hope this isn't considered spam but I figured I'll just post all the videos I have (/been in) in one post ^_^ All of these were filmed and edited by Alasea and her amazing husband!

A bunch of us all got together to swim and film! It was a ton of fun and I wouldn't mind another pool party :)


https://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150240295352665
This was Luna's and mines first time in tails, auditioning to become Alasea's assistant mers.

I can't seem to figure out how to make the video show instead of just the link :( I have the link between So I'm rather confused if someone could help me that would be great!

Ok! So I finally got a chance to take a swim in my test tail (It was made for measurement purposes to make sure my realistic tail that I am making will fit) These are the first two clips taken today. This would be considered my second time swimming in a tail (the first was at an audition). Let me know what you think! :)

This next one I think I want to try and turn into a GIF and make it part of my signature. If anyone knows how to do this I would be super grateful for the help! My boyfriend and I decided to have some fun with the shoot since it was our anniversary :)


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1llkAT3aVBY

And this next short clip was My boyfriend (merpirate)'s idea. It is based on the idea that a mermaids kiss can save a sailor from drowning.

I hope you like them! Special Thanks to MerPirate and Siren for filming! Love you both!

Thank you guys! I am going to try and get in the pool some more and record some new clips soon. I still need to upload one more but I needto figure out how to add sounds effects. I am still new to making videos. Lol

Hey Guys! I have some new clips I would like to share. (I put my makeup on for this one! :D) I would love to splice some of these together so you wouldn't have to keep watching a bunch of 15 second videos but I am still trying to figure out how to procure a program without cost (and then learn to use it). Until then, I hope you enjoy my very short clips! :)

This first clip is of my first swim in my second fabric test tail. The measurements were adjusted in the width (I took it in by a few inches) but surprisingly with this material the length was just right and did not need to be adjusted.

This next one is of my "Dive by" Mermaiding. "Merpirate" was hanging out in the pool and turned to see me swim right in front of his face. He thought it was neat and asked me to do it again so he could film it. This is the product of that request.

This one is of My friend, Linda "Siren", and I playing in the pool blowing bubble rings.

Check out downloads.cnet.com (http://downloads.cnet.com). You can search for software, and filter it to just show you free programs. For basic video editing there should be free stuff out there. And cnet checks to make sure all the files are virus free.

I have a videeeoo! It was so much fun to make, but I still have a lot to learn (and the silicone tail is much trickier to swim in than my fabric one). It was a really fun/mellow video shoot with friends and we had a blast. Definitely doing this more in the future. Let me know what you think! <3

I have one too :D Or actually two. Both of mine were filmed underwater!

Sorry for the bad quality. The camera is actually films really well (HD quality!) but I get too impatient for those giant file sizes to load so I export from Final Cut in a smaller file version which makes the quality degrade a little

Last summer. This was filmed for me by other people so the camera is actually in focus on me for once lol.

This summer...I filmed this by myself :D

Yes I use a lot of ballet music ^.^

Those are so awesome, Jewel!! I especially like the Nutcracker music in the first one. I've never heard such and interesting interpretation!

Thanks! ^.^ Oh right, I remixed a recording I had of the Nutcracker music in Garageband and added those drum beats :)

My buddy and I exploring our favorite wreck. The Yo-257 rest at 100+ ft of water.

http://www.vimeo.com/14013612

*OOPS! just realize I posted the wrong video. The video above is me diving in Monterey California. Diving with the sea lions are pretty awesome.

Here is the correct video. Paul and I diving the YO-257

http://www.vimeo.com/13566619


And the corsair wreck, resting at 104' of water. I am the one in the mono fin. It was right after my torn MCL and wasn't up to my normal depths yet. My dive buddy Paul is the real Merman. He drowned when he was 10, Fell in a frozen pond in his back yard. Dad found him under the ice, with no idea how long he was under. I've seen him do some pretty unhuman stuff underwater, I can't even summarize all the amazing dives in a short forum post.

Thanks Lorelei!

Derek, that is totally badass. I love how many seals are just hanging out in the first video.
