HAHA! I love it! About the eyes: is she wearing some sort of wierd contact, or is that just camera flash redeye? Either way, it's a great effect.
 
Hi there, here are some pictures of my kids halloween costumes. Alex was the Corpse Bride and Ryan was a Clone Trooper. They were sooo cute. Alex really played up the dead bride part. She didn't smile much for the pictures! I bought the dress on ebay. It was an actual wedding dress that was altered and distressed to look old and tattered. There were skeleton bones sticking out of the dress as well ...not sure if you can see them in the pictures.

Hey, remember how I said I was gonna be the cake?

That was a lie.

(I actually dressed as my Renaissance Faire character, whose name I now use here and pretty much everywhere on the interwebs)

At first I was like this :(

But then I lol'd.
 
Ok, its driving me crazy....I don't get the cake thing at all....which I guess is normal? I have never seen or heard of Portal...is that a video game or something? I thought I was up there with my Geek knowledge as I have an 18 YO son who is a gamer / theater geek but he is not here to ask....he is gone at college.

Ok, here's the short version:

Portal is a videogame. The plot of the game (at least to start out) is that you are a test subject at a science lab (known as the Aperture Science Center) testing a new gadget (the portal gun) by using it to get through a series of challenges and obstacle courses. The robotic voice conducting the tests is constantly reminding you that when you finish, you will be rewarded with cake, but you also keep finding notes written on the wall in blood saying "the cake is a lie, the cake is a lie, the cake is a lie." Because of this, "the cake is a lie" has become somewhat of a catchphrase among those familiar with the game.
 
Some kids from the studio:
Travis and Alex doing "Corpse Bride"

Some of the advanced kids. We did Thriller. Aaron (in the middle) was our Michael Jackson.

And then a whole group of skeletons.

Oh, here I am as a zombie. I took this on my mac because I hadn't even seen the finished product.

Thanks so much! I just knew it had to have something to do with gaming.

It was a weird lighting affect! She was facing me, but looking off to the left with her eyes so it looks kinda zombie lol. I thought it looked pretty cool too!
