Film Directing Masterclass -- Composing with the Camera
I teach directing the way I learned painting -- through composition. Where is the eye drawn? What is the relationship between foreground and background? We use storyboards, not shot lists. Every frame should be a painting that moves. Tip: Use multiple cameras. Actors perform differently when they don't know which camera is live.
Film Directing Fundamentals -- Telling the Story Through the Lens
I directed nine films. The trick is knowing what the camera should see versus what the audience should feel. Those are often different things. We work on shot selection, actor direction, and visual storytelling. Bring a short script and we'll storyboard it together.
Color Theory & Photography Demo -- First Color Photo
In 1861, I produced the first color photograph by combining three black-and-white photos taken through red, green, and blue filters. I will demonstrate the principle. Every screen you look at uses this method. RGB. Three colors make a world. Includes hands-on experiments with color mixing and filters.
Board Breaking Kit (Pine + Rebreakable Plastic)
Stack of 1-inch pine boards plus rebreakable plastic boards in 5 difficulty levels. Tip: Breaking boards is not about strength. It's about focus, follow-through, and believing your hand goes THROUGH the board, not TO it.
Philosophy of Martial Arts Workshop -- Small Group
Small group session (max 6). We discuss Tao Te Ching, Krishnamurti, and the connection between combat and self-knowledge. Tip: Knowing is not enough, you must apply. Willing is not enough, you must do. Bring a notebook.
Field Ecology Walk -- Reading the Landscape
A guided walk through any natural area. I will teach you to read the ecosystem: what eats what, who pollinates whom, where the water flows, why certain plants grow in certain spots. Every landscape tells a story of interconnection. Once you see it, you cannot unsee it.
Soldering & Circuit Building Workshop
Learn to solder, read circuit diagrams, and build a working electronic project. Through-hole components on perfboard. I built my first TV transmitter in a rented apartment. You will build something simpler but learn the same fundamental skill.
Orbital Mechanics Tutoring -- Getting to Space
One-on-one tutoring in spaceflight physics. Escape velocity, orbital insertion, Hohmann transfers, gravity assists. I worked this out by hand in the 1910s. Tip: Getting to orbit is not about going up. It is about going sideways fast enough.
Optics Demonstration -- Prisms, Spectra & Light
I will demonstrate how white light splits into a spectrum through a glass prism, and how a second prism recombines it. This experiment settled a 2,000-year debate. Light is not pure -- it is a mixture of colors. Includes hands-on experiments with reflection, refraction, and Newton rings.
Natural Hair Care Formulation Workshop
Learn to make scalp treatments, hair oils, and conditioning products from natural ingredients. I developed my formulas through years of experimentation. Sulfur, petrolatum, plant extracts. You will leave with three products and the knowledge to create more.
Sign Language & Communication Tutoring
One-on-one tutoring in communication methods for the deaf and hard of hearing. My father's Visible Speech system, basic sign language, lip reading techniques. My mother couldn't hear me speak, but she could feel the vibrations of my voice through her hand on my throat. Communication finds a way.
Iberian Falcata Sword (Reproduction)
Curved Iberian falcata. The forward curve concentrates force at impact -- it cuts through bronze armor like leather. My Iberian cavalry used these at Cannae to devastating effect. Includes scabbard and maintenance kit.
