Topic Subject : Video of Female Torso cast

Hi All.

I posted this a little while ago, but with all the comments on the galley image question I think most missed it, so here it is again.

We made a video of us making the mould for a torso cast last week. We will be using the video to show people how it is done at Sexpo in Brisbane from feb 22 to 25. They typically have about 50,000 people at the Brisbane show over the 4 days, so we hope to lift the profile of Lifecasting in Brisbane through this show.

I must thank David Parvin for all his help and guidance over the last few weeks. He has been more than generous with his advice and technical assistance even if from so far away. I should also tank Dave for giving us the idea to make our own video (he suggests it in his DVD on casting the female torso, which I highly recommend).

An edited down version of the video has been uploaded to youtube. You can find the link to it on our web site http://www.bimmortal.com/process.html and it is also on our myspace page http://www.myspace.com/bimmortal

We tried to use Dave's cheese cloth and plaster method for the mother mould, but couldn't find the same or similar material in Australia. The yellow and white material we are embeding int the alginate is cheap kitchen wipes. They bond very well to the alginate and the first layer of plaster bonds well to them (we had some problems with the second layer of wipes and plaster).

Anyway, enjoy and please let us know what you think.

Regards
