Here's a cool behind-the-scenes look at the making of Erika Medina's SlickforceGirl shoot. What a fun (and cold) day this was! Thanks to Erika for being such a trooper during the shoot, and to the entire SlickforceStudio team who helped us pull off this dynamic concept.

Here's the first in-depth look at the making of the very first SlickforceGirl shoot. I'm not going to say much here because the video speaks for itself.

The scale of this shoot was larger than even I had anticipated, but it was also ultimately the most exciting single production day of my career. What a blast to be able to see so much of what's inside your head manifest before your eyes into a reality.

My thanks to the amazing team of artists and assistants who helped us pull off this stellar shoot. Lots more to come from our space-traveling hero. Enjoy!

Here's a cool behind-the-scenes video of my friend, stunt coordinator Alex Wen, rigging Vanessa Veasley up on a wire harness and training her to mimic zero-gravity movement for our SlickforceGirl shoot.

Special thanks to our friends at KCW Studios for providing the rig and making our star fly!

The title pretty much sums it up. Here's Vanessa Veasley trying on a real astronaut suit in preparation for her SlickforceGirl role. I wonder if Neil Armstrong ever said, "I don't know if I'm feeling this one, you can't see my boobs."

In the summer of 2010, I began prep on what would become a two-year-long production of SlickforceGirl. I wrote concepts and drew up storyboards for the vibrant and heroic characters, and then cast model and friend Vanessa Veasley in the role of the first SlickforceGirl.

Here, stunt coordinator and good friend Alex Wen—owner of KCW Studios—harnesses up Vanessa and teaches our leading lady to fly on wires.

And in the clip below, you'll get your first glimpse into Vanessa's otherworldly character, as we near the SlickforceGirl launch next week and prepare to release the first images. Enjoy!

Special thanks to Alex Wen, KCW Studios and Global Effects.
