my new video for the Bixby Knolls

did up this video for our friends the Bixby Knolls! It was part pitch video, part christmas present. not much planning went into it. I called up the girls (the girls being IWF's regulars Wendy McColm (in her triumphant return to IWF) , Heather Higginbotham, and Melissa Loera) and asked them to come over and do an 80s work out video and then had them kick each others' asses. at some point I'll put up the raw outtakes from the vid and you can hear how often these chicks actually connected on their punches. it was a good time and is really supposed to stand-in as an appetizer for the main course we're cooking up with the Bixby Knolls.

anyway, see you all in January for "Through The Cracks" it's gonna super nuts.
