I am delighted to share the news that the makers of "Stuck" have made partner on youtube! On the downside this means that our videos will run an ad or two. But the on the upside this means we get like a 5th of a penny or something for each view! It's not much but we take all those fifs of pennies, tape them together, and invest them back into the biz to pay for tapes, costumes, equipment and the like. Thank you in advance for checking us out on youtube and maybe even clicking on an ad or two!
I'm writing this from Liverpool, England, where I am spending a year back at University. Yes this makes shooting a tad difficult! But I'm there in spirit. And via the intranets. So it's all good.
If you are missing seeing my goofy face on screen, see if they are re-running last years Thanksgiving episode of "Gossip Girl" this week. I was an extra, and you might be able to see me pretending to eat turkey at the prison, when the lady bumps into the guy. Then again, you might not. I don't know, I've never seen it.
Enough updates, for a blast from the past check out an early episode, and one of my favs, "The Tossaround". Did you know....
This was the first episode of the season. The events (?) in Tossaround are mentioned in the next episode, "Ace in the Hole". But actually Ace was shot first, and Tossaround a few days later.
This was my first time working with the onrye guys. My main job was boom operator, which entailed holding a mic mounted on a pole over the actor's heads. Not a great job when you're small have have skinny little arms! So I'm the one responsible if the sound's not great. Sound is always an issue, especially filming outside with trucks and planes going by.
Another interesting challenge is location. We live in NY and drove all over Astoria looking for an alley that could masquerade as somewhat suburban. This also gives a time constraint because you want to shoot quickly enough that you're not annoying neighbors (more on this topic in a later blog...) All of this makes you really appreciate the amount of labor and effort that goes into making a film.
We got 12 beers to do the shot of the lads opening them-- and something or other messed up every take! We ended up using every single one! We couldn't drink all of them of course although we gave it our best effort at the end of the shoot.

Thanks as always for your love and support. Cheerio, toodle-pip, cheers, and all the best.
