CHARACTER INTERVIEW: Frank from "My Giant Uncle"
🕑 Added 2023-12-02 03:42:54 +0000 UTCHi there to all! Here is a new format of post, a interview and casting to some characters, to know them a little more about what they think about the macro world or the crazy idea of grow in size.
We took the chance to cast Frank from “My Giant Uncle”, we did a photoshoot and asked for some odd requests, And we were surprised that he accepted!
Here is the interview and some of those pics:
Us: — Hi there and welcome, please, tell us your name.
Frank: Howdy! Name's Frank, Frank Johnson. Folks 'round these parts just call me ol' Frank.
Us: — I pleasure to meet you Mr. Frank, well, we call you to make a photoshoot and interview for casting you for some videos, are you ok with that?
— Sure thing, sonny. I ain't one for fussin' 'bout cameras and interviews, but reckon I can give it a whirl. Long as it ain't too much trouble, I'm game.
— Well Mr. Frank tell us what do you like more.
— Ah, spending time with my buddy Ben is a real joy. We've known each other since way back when. We share a love for the simple things in life, like fishing by the ol' creek or sittin' 'round a cracklin' fire, spinnin' yarns till the stars come out. There's a peacefulness to it, ya know? Something mighty special about sharin' moments with a good friend.
— That sounds lovely! But, the patreons wants to know about what happened that night… Can you tell us about that strange night?
— Well now, that was a night to remember, for sure. Ben and I were out by the bonfire, sippin' on some homemade brew, just enjoyin' the quiet of the evening. Then, outta nowhere, this bright streak lit up the sky, and this here meteorite came crashin' down not too far off.
Ben, bein' curious as ever, headed on over and touched the darn thing. Next thing we knew, there was a strange sorta glow 'round him, and he started actin' peculiar-like. It was like watchin' a scene from one of them sci-fi flicks, I'll tell ya that much. Had us both mighty puzzled, wonderin' what in tarnation had just happened.
— That is very oddly for sure!
— You betcha! It was downright peculiar, no denyin' that. Had us scratchin' our heads for days tryin' to figure out what in blazes that meteorite done to ol' Ben. Strange things do happen 'round these parts every now and then, I reckon.
— Truly is it! Well, this is a kind of strange request, can you sit down and remove your shoes for the camera?
— Now, that's a mighty peculiar request, I gotta say. But, well, if it'll make for a good snap, reckon I can oblige. (sits down comfortably and removes shoes) There we go. How's that for a photo op?
— Thanks Mr Frank, you got a nice feet.
— Why, thank ya kindly, sonny! Never had no one compliment my feet before. Guess it's a first for everything in this here life!
— Do you like to be barefoot?
— You know, there's somethin' real liberatin' 'bout goin' barefoot. Feelin' the earth under your feet, connectin' with nature in a way. But 'round these parts, gotta watch out for them prickly things, so I don't go barefoot as much as I'd like to. But when I can, sure feels good to let those toes breathe.
— We are glad to hear that, well… we will take some photos, but we want to ask you something more…
— Shoot away, sonny. I'm all ears for whatever you wanna know.
— Well, I want to ask you to imagine when you touch that thing that came from outer space, and in a strange way you start to grow in size... I know it is a little odd to ask for this.
— Well, that's a doozy of an imagination there! chuckles Gotta say, that'd be one wild ride, growin' like Jack's beanstalk just from touchin' a space rock. But reckon in real life, growin' like that might cause a heap of trouble 'round these parts. Can't imagine squeezin' through them doorways or fittin' into my old truck. Life'd sure get mighty interestin', I'll give ya that!
— Hehe, that is right... How do you think will be that growth spurt?
— Well, reckon I'd start feelin' a peculiar tinglin' sensation, like a tickle runnin' through my bones. Slowly but surely, I'd start risin' up, stretchin' taller and taller. The ground beneath my feet would seem to shrink, makin' everything else look mighty small, like toys in a playpen.
As I grew, it'd be like watchin' a time-lapse, y'all shrinkin' down while I grew big as a barn. My steps would feel like thunder, and reckon I'd be givin' the trees a run for their money, peekin' over 'em like a skyscraper.
And there I'd stand, a 50-foot-tall fella, lookin' down at y'all like tiny specks, my voice boomin' like thunder across the plains. Bet y'all'd look like ants from up there! But despite the size, reckon I'd still be the same ol' Frank, just seein' things from a mightier perspective.
— Well imagine then that your growth spurt doesn't stop there... and you continue growing. What would Mr. Frank do? (We saw him removing his shirt, is some kind of hot here).
— Well, now that's a whopper of a scenario! If I were to keep on growin' past what's sensible, reckon I'd have to find some wide-open spaces. Probably head out to the fields or the woods where there's plenty of room to stretch out without causin' too much fuss.
Might also have to figure out how to tailor-make some mighty big clothes to fit my newfound size! But truth be told, reckon I'd just try to take it all in stride, see where this peculiar growth spurt takes me.
— Well, we think there won't be clothes to fits you anymore Mr. frank
Ha, you're probably right about that! Reckon I'd be quite the sight, strollin' around without a stitch of clothing my size. Might have to take up the art of fashionin' together some makeshift garments from whatever I could find. But I s'pose that'd be the least of my worries if I kept on growin'!
— Yeah that would be somewhat problematic at your current size hehe. What else would you do if you were that big?
Well, if I found myself towerin' over everything and everyone like this!, I reckon I'd have to be mighty careful not to cause a ruckus. Probably steer clear of the town, so I wouldn't startle folks or accidentally stomp on anythin'. Maybe use my size for some good, helpin' out 'round the farm or movin' heavy stuff that needs tendin' to.
But truth be told, reckon I'd just try to find a way to get back to normal, 'cause bein' that big might be more trouble than it's worth, even if it'd be one heck of an adventure!
— We will put the camera down and take a very low angle, can you walk a little for us? Imagine You are the giant Mr Frank.
— Well now, reckon I can give it a shot! (stands up and takes a few giant steps, pretending to be colossal) How's that for a stroll? Feelin' mighty towering all of a sudden!
— Sure, that was a good one!
— Glad I could provide a little entertainment there! Got me imaginin' all sorts of peculiar scenarios. Anything else you're hankerin' to know or see?
— Well imagine you find us on the ground..small because you are giant. what would you think or do about us Mr. Frank?
— Well, well, look at that! Little ol' you down there and me standin' tall like a mountain. chuckles. Gotta admit, it's a peculiar sight, seein' y'all pint-sized from up here. Might feel a bit like a giant, lookin' down and all. But reckon I'd be curious, wonderin' how in tarnation you shrank while I sprouted up like a beanstalk.
Might just take a moment to savor the view, seein' things from this new perspective. But reckon I'd lend a hand, help y'all out somehow. Don't want you runnin' 'round like ants down there, now do we?
— That would be very interesting to see someday, he he he.
Another request, Can you lift your feet and pretend you want to squish us Mr. Frank?
— Well, now, that's a mighty peculiar request, ain't it? lifts foot slowly, pretending to aim it toward the miniature camera, Oh, watch out down there! Don't wanna accidentally squash ya now, do I? pretends to playfully tease, then sets foot back down Phew, reckon I best be careful where I step!
— That is a good shot! tell us how could you squish us.
Well, I reckon if I were to stomp down with one mighty step, or perhaps give a little nudge with my foot, it might not be too kind for ya little fellas down there. pretends to contemplate But ya know, even in pretendin', reckon I ain't much for squishin' nothin', no matter how small it might be. Might just rather lend a hand than cause any harm!
— We see you are getting excited with the idea of being big Mr. Frank.
— Well, now, I reckon there's a certain thrill to the idea, ain't there? Standin' tall, bein' larger than life, feelin' like the king of the hill. smirks Ain't every day a fella gets to tower over everything and everyone! But truth be told, bein' big don't mean much if you ain't got a big heart to go along with it, now does it?
— That is the spirit! The giant Mr Frank! That sounds good...
— Well, I'll be darned! The giant Mr. Frank, huh? chuckles Reckon it's a right peculiar notion, but I s'pose it's got a certain ring to it. Never did think much 'bout bein' a giant, but I gotta admit, there's a whimsical charm to the idea!
— Something else you want to tell us to end this photoshoot and the interview?
— Well, it's been a heap of fun, I'll tell ya that much! Never thought I'd find myself pretendin' to be a giant in a photoshoot and all. But I reckon it's been a hoot! Thanks for lettin' ol' Frank have a bit of an adventure.
— Sure! See you soon Mr. Giant Frank, try to dont destroy a city he he he.
— Ha, don't you worry none! Ain't plannin' on causin' any mini-calamities today. Though, reckon it's mighty temptin' to imagine playin' Godzilla with y'all down there. But fear not, I'll keep these ol' feet firmly on the ground! Y'all take care and steer clear of any giants you might come across!
