Kerri's bees
« on: November 07, 2011, 10:06:27 pm »
I thought ya'll might like to see this one unedited. Kerri herself shot this for us and I gotta warn ya it's a little Blair Witch but it was a fun little job.

I enjoyed this one, learned a few little tips, like the pinching together. 

Now, a question.  Did you cut the bottoms of the combs just to make them sit better in the frame?  Other than that there really was no need to cut them, correct?

I am so amazed the way you handle bees bare handed.  Did you get any stings on your hands during that cutout?

Thanks ya'll, we had fun with it! Jack, you guessed it. The comb sits much better it you cut a small flat spot and we always check it in a few days to make sure the comb is aligned. If you start them out good and straight the subsequent combs are drawn straight as well.

No stings on this one although that's a rarity :-D

Another great video.  Keep up the good work, someday they may call you the bee whisperer and have a tv show, LOL!
