Movie time

Man oh man, am I excited about this spring. "Why?" you ask me. Because a movie I was in will debut at a local film festival. A local filmmaker approached members of the improv troupe I'm in because he needed improvisers for a mockumentary he was filming. Of course, we jumped on the chance. He had a bare bones script for us, and for each scene he'd give us an idea of what he wanted to be included, but there was no official script or lines for us. Most every scene was pure improv, which was incredibly fun.

So we filmed it last summer, and now it's in post-production. Yet just today I received an email from the filmmaker with some clips from the movie, and they're hilarious.

The film has a website, so I'll direct you toward that. The basic jist of the film is that it's a mockumentary about a guy who dies and how his friends and coworkers react. I play his boss.

Here's the website. Be sure to check out some of the still photos, and there are also two clips. The "Moment of Silence" clip is just fine for regular viewers, but beware of the "Porn Titles" clip. It's hilarious, but there's some foul language in it (in case you're at work or are easily offended).

Woohoo!

Congratulations! I, too, am saving this treat as a reward for making it through three hours of epistemology. Off to the battle to stay awake...

should you tell this guy that the proper phrase is "whet your palate" not "wet your pallet"?
