[SeeThink Productions](http://www.seethink.com), which has done commercials for Nike, Gatorade, MTV and others, is currently in the editing stages of a full-length, full-featured documentary about my LARP, [Darkon](http://www.darkon.org), which should be screening this summer. You can see me in a couple of scenes, though since you don’t really know what I look like, the point is moot. 😃 Anyway, check out the trailer at [www.darkonthemovie.com](http://www.darkonthemovie.com). Even if you’re not interested in live-action roleplaying, it’s still a neat watch.

Oooh, I get to use my sig.

All in good fun, of course. 🙂

Obvious solution: Post us some pics! I can see whole Dopefests being organized around seeing you in this movie.  
well, it’s _possible_, anyway

Is that guy in the yellow foam supposed to be a monster of some sort?

Yeah, he’s some kind of sponge monster, from what I’ve heard (I wasn’t at that particular event).
