Get in line, ladies…

Wishing a very Happy Birthday to my favorite funny guy, Josh Ruben!

Thank you Lauren and all my friends for the birthday wishes. 26 is on track to being a great year; a year of great focus and confidence. I’m pretty sure.

Mall Store Bailout

I have my first line in a College Humor video.

Long, long shoot.

Also, I know that whole monologue by heart. Ask for it some time.

I think Pat knew this monologue by heart a long, long time ago.

One of the longest shoots of my life for many reasons, but I think its a cutie patootie. Everyone did great.

This is why I’m an actor

Web Site Story, written and directed by me. A tribute to my three big loves: film, theater, and the internet. Also produced by Eva and shot by Vince with a huge and talented cast. Digg it.

Jeff Rubin, king of puns, thought of the title. The opening Google Maps shots are analogous with the rooftop shots that open the “West Side Story” movie. ”The Skateboard Escape” from Back to the Future is actually on Hulu. eHarmony recently opened up a sister site for gays called Compatible Partners, but still refuses to accept gays into eHarmony because of its Christian backing.

The music was done by Carl Sondrol, who had legit trumpeters visit his Chicago recording studio, while the singing was recorded here in New York by Morgan Whirledge. In most cases, it’s the actual actors doing the singing.

All the interiors were shot in studio and all the exteriors on very cold rooftops in Williamsburg. ”The Net Song” was done using a rotating platform that Vince and our PM Bennett thought of day-of. ”Twitter” and “Pandora” were choreographed by Celia Rowlson-Hall.

The last scene, “Evite,” was shot until 6am. We used a scissor lift to get those epic crane shots. Around 4am, Bennett said “I wanted to go home, but then I saw the shot, and now I don’t care how long we’re here.”

This is a testament to my production team at CollegeHumor. This is outstanding. If we don’t win the Academy Award for best internet short, they can suck it.

I've Started A Film Festival

nerdology:

I’ve been thinking long and hard about this and, I’m jumping in head first. I have started the first 9:16 film festival. Yes, that is a tall frame. I’ve been thinking a lot about the new iPhone and the video record and decided that we need to break in this tall frame format.

There are two categories here, One Shot and 5 Minutes. One shot is, one shot. As if you shot it on your iPhone. And maybe you did. No visual editing here, just one shot and then upload. The other is 5 Minutes. Just a short (up to 5 minutes) shot in this new canvas.

Check out (and follow!) the official site 9by16.tumblr.com for all the details. There will be more to come in the following weeks.

Please reblog and pass along. Thanks.

Great idea, sir. Makes me wanna get an iPhone.

Nah.
