Taj Mahal

Arnold Schwarzenegger tried to visit the Taj Mahal but unfortunately it was closed. It's a good thing the dude doesn't have a job -- so there's always tomorrow!

This is a censored version of a final visual edit for episode 2 of my feature length directorial debut 'Bizarre Love Pentagram.' This scene is a flashback account of a moment in 1984. Shot in my own kitchen and backyard in 2007, we changed everything in the set to resemble a typical home in the Sunset District of the 80's, from the cookware and telephone to the records and typical clothes. We did, however, do some motion graphic compositing to hide the Pokemon artwork (of the 90's). We simply replaced it with a Voltes 5 picture (of the late 70's). The sound is incomplete and the music is not cleared. The censored cussing and blackouts of nudity were necessitated in order to post it places. This scene is a flashback of a main character, Venom, when he was 12 and his sister, Taj Mahal, 14. This is the day she reveals to him a letter from their excommunicated dad hidden by their mom, Florenzia. He wants them all to come back but their mom, never stating her reason, refused. This day was also a major turning point for Venom when his sister introduces him to Motorhead. Actors: Anita Argent (Florenzia), Kai Steele Smith (Venom), Tiffany Schmitz (Taj Mahal) Assistant Camera: Chris Golden Location Sound: Nathan Fritz Set/Props: Myself, 'Riel', and Tim Schmitz Styling: Myself and Anita Argent Compositing: Mark Rollins III Music: 1) Frank Sinatra 'That's Life'; 2) Aimee Mann 'Video' (original score coming soon) *shot with a Panasonic HVX200 and edited with Final Cut Pro HD/After Effects CS3*
