I've been digitizing old family movies-- When I was 13, I made up a superhero named “Catlen.” (I merely put a “t” in my last name. I thought cats were cool.) Growing up in the county, the character gave me something of my own to draw.
As I aged, I decided to make a movie with our family’s wind-up 8mm movie camera. I was 16 or 17. The quality is very varied. My mom could have filmed it properly, but instead I asked a cute girl to do it. Too bad. You can't tell a spinning car wheel is actually off the ground in one scene.
There's no sound, so I added captions with iMovie. It’s 5 minutes long, complete with “special effects!”
You might suspect that the cape and metal disks were inspired by Thor. But actually, I though Nomad looked cool.
I used the tops off Quick containers for the disks on my costume.
And, no, I wasn't supposed to break the glass on the screen door. Oops.
