This is a little promo video I shot for Hivefest that I found a good idea to upload to 3speak so its here forever! hehe.
It was a blast shooting this. It took some time to set up. I needed to arrange everything with the Archeological museum of Split so they let me shoot in Salona. That alone took 2 weeks. Thats bureaucracy for you. Salona is an ancient Roman city, capital of the province Dalmatia, founded in 300 BC, thats positioned just above Split. I thought the tusculum was a really nice place to shoot and i think it shows.
The armor was provided by one of my friends from high school. He actually has a whole Roman legion that goes around Croatia doing shows. Theyre called "Dioklecijanova Legija". You can check them out online.
They couldnt find legionnaire armor big enough for me to fit in, so they took the biggest one they had and strapped me in so tight I almost passed out first few mins. There was a woman extra there so I had to tough it out. 😂
The damn thing weighs 20kg, its real metal, not those plastic fakes used in movies. It was 37 °C outside when i shot this, I could barely move, couldnt breathe and the metal plates were slowly jabbing into my ribs. It was a fun day. haha
But I really wanted to do something a bit different that wer not used to doing. I think it turned out well. @mynewlife did a good job editing the video. I think he got it right on the first try.
The important part is that you share it on other social media. You know how it goes. Its uploaded to the Hivefest twitter account.
And there you go. Ill see you guys in Split.

Real grapes? How in the

5 dolla video, 50 dolla grapes. Beacoup dolla.
Sour grapes my man. Sour as sour can be. 😂
Still better than wine.
At least now people can say they heard about Hive Fest through the grapevine.
So many layers to this.
We need to start a pun-off on Hive. 😂
@improv would be down with that jam.
Wow this is so nice
Hahaha are you an actor?
Yes. I expect a Golden Globe for this video. 😂
You deserve even more sir.
Great job.
😉
You did an amazing job with the video! Do you work professionally as a filmmaker?
I did produce Freechain so i guess i could be called a filmmaker. haha
Raf edited this. He made it what it is. I just told the camera guy what to shoot and how. And then I badly acted the scene. haha
Wow amazing video, I love it. You have done much to share.
Cute

This is awesome, I love it. Now it feels like I saw you in an episode of Merlin. Hahaha.
Ohhh I’m not surprised to know @mynewlife edited this. He’s literally the best. I almost thought I was watching one of those Roman empires movies, you did reaaally amazing…hehe
OMG!!! I looove it!! I’ll do my best to be there! It will be awesome! This year I’m closer!!
When I saw the post on X, I asked myself if that was Lordbutterfly, and from this post, the question has been answered hehe
I think you and your team did an amazing job with the video.
I read a tweet you posted where you said the Roman atire was too small for you and that was the only one available hehe, I laughed when I read it.
Hivefest would be fun, I can feel it, too bad I won't make it there physically.
It good that the video came out well and every other plan for Hivefest is going well too.
Nice job!

Buen trabajo promocional, espero el evento de mucho de q hablar y apoyen la comunidad hive y parnerts 👏
Wow!!! Really Impressive.
Good job friend!
LOL! Do we all get a fair maiden to fan us at Hivefest?
I will be sorting out my trip there this week. I did email the contact for the hotels, but had no response. I've found something else for around 400€, so may go for that. I'll be on my own and just need somewhere to sleep.
Is the 14th the final evening of events? I need to make sure I book the right nights.
I just deleted my Twtr account, so I'm afraid I can't share it there.
Great to hear. The hotel option expired a few days ago so that might be why. We did mention that it was time sensitive. But you will have an easy time finding something on Booking.com. Anything thats inside Split is at worst 20 mins by car or uber away from venues if traffic is bad.. 14th evening is the end.
Thanks. Just to confirm, if I fly in on the 10th and out on the 15th will I be there for everything?
If you land earlier during the day on 10th, yes. Opening drinks are 10th, evening.
Wow this is a nice video
It Looks like a movie director did this
Love this😂😂
Very drawing concept 👏🏻🥂
