Hey Everyone!
I’ve been working on this project for the past several months and I’m finally ready to share it with all of you.
A little bit of the backstory…
I’m guessing most of you are familiar with Renaissance Faire tickling videos where random, unsuspecting women are placed in stocks and tickled. I’ve been wanting to do something similar for a long time and have done a lot of research on the plausibility of pulling this off. Unfortunately, the Renaissance Faire-style tickling videos don’t seem like a realistic idea at the moment (for a variety of different reasons).
I started to brainstorm ideas that would be similar to the Renaissance Faire videos. The key elements were:
– A fun, mainstream way to tickle.
– Amateur models/participants, not fetish models.
– They would not know they were going to be tickled ahead of time.
– Tickling in stocks.
I came up with the idea of an Escape Room game/challenge – In a Medieval setting, players are accused of being witches and taken to the castle’s dungeon for an interrogation. They are locked in the stocks and told that they must confess to being a witch. Players have to endure a 5-minute interrogation at the hands of the Witch Finders. If they are able to hold out and not confess to being a witch they win $100.
Right now I’m in the “testing” phase but I thought it would be cool to share this video with you. I’ve been posting casting calls on social media, talent sites and working with agencies to find willing volunteers.
All they are told is that I’m working on developing this interactive game and looking for volunteers to test out the challenge. Tickling is never mentioned.
So far, I’ve been able to do several of these testing sessions to different degrees of success. The biggest challenge is I’ll have no idea how ticklish a player is so the potential for “duds” is high.
Here is one of my sessions that is anything but a dud. It’s the best one so far so I just had to share it with all of you! It features a very ticklish Latina named Bridgette who really got into the game and had a blast!
Keep in mind, this is not close to what my hopes for the finished project will be. I’ll post more of these test sessions as I move forward with this project.
