Good Mood Food Update

 Well, we just finished our first shoot for "Good Mood Food", and it went absolutely fantastic. This particular scene was of the main character, Jake, being bullied by a group of preppy douchers because of his immense love of Arbys. The bullies also be sure to throw in jabs about his alcoholic father and mother who was killed in car accident because of him on Christmas Eve. Sounds like a heartwarming story right? We are really excited to further explore this incredibly melodramatic story that centers around a boy's intense affection for the fast food conglomerate.

Despite a few hiccups, (we had to completely re-route all our lights when each one went out in the middle of a take) I thought the shoot went pretty smoothly. Kyle did a great job as our DP and got some footage that I can't wait to take to the edit room. We also had one of our actors use an iPhone to record the bullying first hand, which will provide some gritty first person footage to cut back to. I am really excited to keep the ball rolling and get going on our next shoot, which will probably be in the next coming week.

Key & Peele

Very recently my friend Jake introduced me to the comedy group Key & Peele. Now I'm sure that a lot of you have already heard of these guys because they are pretty popular, but I'm just getting around to seeing them and I would absolutely tell everyone to go watch their stuff.

Key & Peele are two comedians who got their start on the show MADtv, which was a sketch show sort of like SNL, just not as popular. After MADtv ended in 2009, two of the actors, Key & Peele went their own way and started up another sketch show on Comedy Central, called, well Key & Peele.

The sketches range from political oriented sketches to ones that are just plain funny. Here are a few examples from the show.

and probably my favorite sketch.

I would highly recommend this show to anyone. The show just finished its second season but you can just catch some re-runs on Comedy Central.
