David was playing the part of a young gravedigger in director Conor McMahons rural horror film “Dead Meat” where mad cow disease has infected the local population turning them into, well you guessed it flesh eating Zombies. This was Day 1 for David and he was just dressed up in rural garb about to fling himself in front of a car when I took this portrait of him in the fairy woods of Leitrim. / I love this portrait as it is timeless or more to the point it harks back to the Golden age of movie heroes and stars and David is one here.
A rusty old fence is all that protects you from a nasty fall down a fairly steep hill down to the valley floor at the Conor Pass.
Thick fog was rolling across the Conor Pass. It was frightening how fast it moved and the light and scene changed utterly. Here’s it’s obscuring the road down the Pass, making the too-narrow road even more treacherous. I think by the time we left, even this stretch of road and the car park was covered in a thick white fog.
I’m loath to post photos from the same location day after day but I may as well call this “Conor Pass Week” and get the rest of them out of the dark where they’ve languished since 2006. After the reaction to yesterday’s Conor Pass photo hopefully you’ll like this one too. I have another 2 or 3 taken at the same time. The day was perfect for photography, the light was strong and to the side, there was an interesting sky and of course the scenery is beautiful. That was a very successful trip! (from my my blog post)
Dead Meat was the name of the film and as young as he looks and was, still does, in 2003 he was directing his first feature film a micro-budget horror flick funded by the Irish Film Board. The movie centred around the premise that cattle who got mad cow disease more than went mental they in fact became homocidal flesh eating zombies! The film was shot on location in the wet lands of Leitrim and Roscommon. Zombies were also hired en-masse from this locale for sandwiches and tea.
This was the start of her creation, and she had no problems with getting her hands in clay! Thanks to Conor, for his time, tools and materials! He was great with the kids, and helped guide them in working with mud! Well done!
A simple pencil drawing on a brown paper. This was done by my 5-year-old boy, Conor. I buy him and his twin brother lots of big brown paper and i tape them on the wall near their desks so they could enjoy doing scribbles and doodles. He asked me to cut this one out for him, and i love it, so i took a shot and have it here. Great for a card or wall accent as artprint. By the way, i bet this is based on a character in one of his cartoon favorites on television. I really don’t know its name…
Trying out RAW
Here after escaping certain death a few times, including her rapacious and pickaxe wielding cad of a boyfriend and at least two scythe wielding undead farmers, Helena finds herself in an eerie Irish woodland, missing a sleeve of her incredibly expensive trenchcoat. Unbeknownst to her Desmond the gravedigger lurks in these woods. Will he be her saviour or the end of her?
This is Conor, or as he says, the Mudman! He had gotten some help, from some that did not mind getting their hands dirty! He had lots of his work there, as well as interest in what he was doing! Many others enjoyed seeing him work with clay, and some even got into to it with him, as you can see! This was the kids favorite, I believe! He is another good friend of Kathryn’s who came to show support for her, and was delighted he had made his appearance!
