Uni Movie:Any girls/women who'd be interested?

Unipsychogirl · 2004-04-02T11:55:22+00:00

Hey Lauren and nikkifrog and any other female riderz!! I know that you were talking about this some time ago...but, on the subject of girls that uni...... I was keeping this whole idea secretive up until now...BUT: I am making a unicycling movie which should be the first one in its class to feature extreme unicycling skills performed exclusively by females. I will be in it, showcasing some Trials, Mountain, Freestyle, and Flatland unicycling, along with some of my friends who live in Washington. These are the people who MIGHT be in it: Miranda Kole, 2003 N.A.U.C.C. Pairs Freestyle Advanced gold medalist Irene Genelin, 2002 World Artistic Standard Expert champion Janet Chastain (my mom, who rides pretty well now!...I taught her how to ride) Julie Young (Women's National Mountain Unicycle Champion, 1999) may also be in the movie. I am still in the process of contacting her sister, Sierra. I have not been in contact with them that much lately. If you are a girl: Would you be at all interested in filming with me?...say, at NAUCC 2004 in SLC, Utah? or a MUni weekend? or sending me some footage of you riding? even if you can't do very EXtreme stuff, i'd still be glad to welcome you to the movie cast...and it doesn't matter what type of riding you do, either.... Well, g2g for now... Laterz! Sara Chastain )---(X) -- unipsychogirl - Trials chicka ~Sara C. ([email hidden]) (A.I.M.

I'm all for that idea. It would be nice to have females in a
video for the "other" perspective. How many females have
been featured in unicycling videos? The only girls I can
think of are in "One Wheel, No Limit," as well as in some of
the convention videos. This isn't indicative of the actual
numbers of female riders. Good luck to you all!

I don't do anything extreme, but I would be willing to be in
it. I may be coming to Utah for NAUCC 2004.
I can ride well but I don't really do many tricks. I have a
muni but I'm not very good at it. I'm hoping to practice
when the weather gets nicer.
I have a 29er and I just ordered a 12". So if you want
different types of unicycles in the video I would be happy
to help you out.

Thank you to all who replied...it sounds like a lot of ppl
are really interested in and supportive of my movie idea!
nikkifrog (Nikki): Now THAT is a GREAT idea that you have
about featuring the different "types" of unicycles! I'd
really like to get some footage of you riding some different
kinds of unicycles...Oh, and I invented one of the world's
first Coasting Unicycles (not to brag or anything) and maybe
you or I or some of my other friends could ride that!! I'm
pretty good at it (compared to most who tried it at UNICON
11)...I even rode it in my really bad Open-X routine! lol
now THAT was disastrous! I just got a new MUni and
have about 10 other unicycles besides that. So...if
you wouldn't mind, could you please send me a private
message, maybe with your e-mail address, Screen Names,
etc. Also, how old are you? Just curious. I just
turned 17.
pete66: I'd LOVE to have you assist with some of the camera
work on filming some possible NZ unicyclists. Do you know my
friends Simon Wells or Tony Melton? I think Simon lives in
Australia, and Tony might, too. But, I guess New Zealand is
a bit far away...lol! Do you know any of these NZ female
unicyclists that you say are pretty good? I would love to
talk to them and get their filming in as soon as possible.
What type of riding do they do? I guess I'm assuming
freestyle. I will not be going to Japan, but my friend
Miranda will...if you're going, too, maybe you could meet up
with her and give her some tape(s) of these excellent female
unicyclists.
***ALSO.....Any suggestions for the title of the movie (keep
in mind that it should probably show in the title that it is
an exclusively FEMALE cast) or just any suggestions on what
to put in the movie, who to put in it, etc. Thanx
everybody!!***

hahaha, uh, my bad, I was just making stuff up in the hope
that it'd get you and the other ladies over to NZ! Um, I do
have a girl cousin who can (sort of) ride because I lent my
uni to her and her 2 little brothers a few years ago and
they had it at their place for a year or 2.
I dunno bout title names... I spose if you've got a lisp you
could call it "wheel women".

That is an awsome idea for a title... you could also put
that symbol in the phrase "One Wheel" and even make a logo
with that symbol as the tire on a unicycle.
Genious!

Thanx everyone for all of your great ideas...please keep
'em coming!
I REALLY like the idea of "No Limits" with the circle with
the cross sign underneath it (letz just call it the female
sign)...I waz also thinking that maybe, in addition to that,
we could substitute a "Z" instead of the "s" at the end of
"Limits"...lotz of my friends and I use 'z''s in words
instead of the 's' in writing each other, I.M.ing each
other, etc. So, maybe it could be like "No LimitZ: EXtreme
Female Unicycling" or somethin'.
As for getting some footage of awesome female riders in
other countries...If you could just do a little filming of
yourself/the female rider and then send the footage in (I
think I could accept) either DVD or VHS tape format, I would
be more than happy to pay for all the shipping, etc. That
would be AWESOME to have some riderz from other countries in
my movie!!
Thanx for all your great ideas, suggestions, offers,
and support!!

I like the title and the design idea. I know it's a rough
draft, but I would recommend the 'female symbol' to be a bit
larger (make the 'O' normal size.)
