Captain Quicksilver’s Pirate Video

Working against an extremely tight deadline, we put together an entry video for Captain Morrigan Quicksilver, firing off his first salvo in his quest to star in Mark Burnett’s Pirate Master reality show.


Captain Morrigan Quicksilver is the pirate alias of Mark Heimann, who runs a small pottery studio in Oregon known as Lost Mountain Clayworks. Mark was interested in starring in Mark Burnett’s Pirate Master reality show, so we put together a short audition film that details a few facets of his eclectic personality. Indeed, his video includes flintlock pistol-firing, axe-throwing, and even a bit of pottery. We shot the film in a day, edited it that evening, and overnighted the DVD the following morning.
