Thank You Sato Sensei, and EVERYONE ELSE, for supporting K.B.A.!



Kure Beach Aikido's 1st Ever... (and I guess ANNUAL) Seminar was an unprecedented success... for a FIRST Seminar. I have Tons of EXCELLENT PHOTOGRAPHY and 6 hrs of video.... (3hrs of Standard Def and 3 hrs of Hi-Def) to slog thruogh. Be patient... all the cool stuff will be online before you know it.

K.B.A. would like to thank EVERYONE that came. Without you, this seminar would not have been possible.

The Latest Info...
8 April 08 - Well.... still playing with Flash....
I have yet another Photo Montage for you to look at... I have replaced the one that was recently up with the new one.... check it on the Pics/Vids page! I have been slogging thru the video, trying to take the tastiest bits out of it for posting on the web page.... I have "A" and "B" Camera footage to cut together.... as well as trying to find "Just The Right Soundrack" to go with it.... at this rate, our NEXT Seminar will have come! But fear not, campers, I should have something for you to look at before you know it! I will send a notification to everyone on our E-Mail List when it is complete....

3 April 08 - I am busy tracking down Kat Von D... she is here in Wilmington for a shoot for a couple or three weeks for a Vampire Movie.... hoping to get a photo with her.... maybe she will need something, and I can get a Tatt from her... you never know.... that would be SUH-WEEEET! Sucks having my job, huh? Suckas!!!

No time for Video or Photo edits today... sorry campers.... new stuff will be posted before you know it!
HOWEVER.... K.B.A. still has a few tricks up our collective sleeves.... so stay tuned....


2 April 08 - So, I have been going through the photography that was taken by Fred Norris, Set Photographer Extrodinere... and there is so much to look at.... it is mind boggling.... so what I have done is taken only 1/3rd of the photos and made a photo montage out of them... complete with soundtrack.... It didn't make much sense resizing all the darn photos and coding them ALL to pop-up and stuff.... so I have cut to the chase so that you, our valued fellow Aikidoka, can have a quick peek at what I am seeing. The montage is a Flash Video, so you will need FLASH to see it.... I have posted it on the Pics/Vids page.

The Hi-Def Video is
FAN-FREEKING-TASTIC!!!! It will take a while to cut it into something usable.... because there IS SO MUCH OF IT!!!! I will post the Hi-Def stuff online as DIVX files... I will provide everyone with a link to get the CODEC to look at it once it is posted.... that is the ONLY WAY to see HI-Def online!!! Killer, Killler stuff....

There will be more surprises from KBA coming soon....
