I Hate Being Single webseries


I Hate Being Single is a 2011 Bing Audience Choice Award winner At the NYTVF (New York Television Festival) It is a  webseries created by comedian Rob Michael Hugel. It follows a lonely struggling videographer hipster Rob and his journey to find a girl to share his life with. The cast is comprised of NYC comedians from the Upright Citizens Brigade.I really enjoy this fresh take on a single guy and his search for Happiness and Love. The only thing I disliked about it was that the episodes (similar to small bags of chips) are too short,and  I was left wanting more. I hope you will watch this first season and share with your friends this amazing new webseries I Hate Being Single! I can't wait for season 2!

filmmaking tips from Billy Wilder Via Film School Rejects

Adapted from the article 6 filmaking tips from Billy Wilder via film school rejects

http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/

 

Grab ‘Em By the Throat

“Grab ‘em by the throat and never let ‘em go.”
It’s straightforward, but easier said than written. What will thrill an audience? What will captivate them? Storytelling has a profound power, and the key to harnessing it is in discovering something (whether it be a plot point, an action, a visual or a delivery style) that will pull people physically forward in their seats. Is it a passionate archeologist looking out on an expansive valley filled with living dinosaurs? Is it a mobster slapping his moll with a piece of fruit? Is it simply good dialog? Find your throat-grabber, and the heavy lifting…has just begun, because you’ve got to hold on tight.

Think Outside the Door

“An actor entering through the door, you’ve got nothing. But if he enters through the window, you’ve got a situation.”
It might sound simple, but sometimes tweaking a normal situation is all that’s needed to make it pop. When someone climbs in through a window, it demands an explanation.



Be Prepared To Be These Things

“A director must be a policeman, a midwife, a psychoanalyst, a sycophant and a bastard.”
In the process of making a picture, you’ll be laying down the law, coaxing a newborn out into the world, attempting to figure out your characters and colleagues, appeasing people’s frail egos and smashing them to the ground. For Wilder, it was clearly a matter of that balance. Plus, the old guy loved to contradict himself (even though he didn’t include “clown” in that list of occupations).
What battles to fight and which ones should get the white flag.

Do Something In Your Story

“I have ten commandments. The first nine are, thou shalt not bore. The tenth is, thou shalt have right of final cut.”
How are you going to grab someone by the throat again? Do something. Anything.
When I was reading scripts, the most common problem I saw among aspiring writers was a crushing inability to have anything happen in their screenplays. They would be filled with scenery and characters doing things that people do, but there was no plot. No forward momentum. No goals or obstacles. They were boring. Of course, the price to avoid boredom is to do away with safety. Fortunately, it’s just fictional characters that have to be put in danger.

Squaresville- web series: A show about growing up and burning brightly.


Squaresville is about Zelda (Mary Kate Wiles) and Ester (Kylie Sparks)who are best friends,nerds,and misfits growing up and trying to fit in ,and unsure about what they want to be when they grow up.This teen comedy/drama,that I am sure everyone can relate to,is in the same vein of your typical T.V. show,and actually should be a T.V. show, I find this web show,more likable and appealing to me,and I want to watch more,I really like the smaller time format that web shows can offer,but wish this series episodes were a bit longer.I really like the lovable Zelda ,she reminds me of Hayley Williams the lead singer of Paramore,with her red hair and attitude. It is show very well,written by the talented Matt Enlow. I hope you will take some time to watch,and see for yourself this 2012 series Squaresville!     ps tell your friends!
