Friday! Today we are shooting a skit!
Anyway, there are a few things up with the project: The episodes I decided are going to start off on a blog. I’m not sure if TGP will make it big (lets hope), but until it proves to me that the episodes get enough traffic, I’m going to have a paid wordpress blog. I would feel better to spend money and the time on my own domain and all that jazz when the episodes actually warrant having it. For example, when I showed DerrickComedy, that site wasn’t always hosted on its own sever. The website was just a makeshift black with links on the side. It was simple. Until they got publicity is when they redesigned the site. The final blog hosting layout will be out Monday, so I’ll be presenting a few episodes straight from the website.
As mentioned before, there’s a certain ascetic with webcomedy. They’re never longer than two minutes (not all, but most), they’re simple gags. I’m confident that certain people will think they’re funny, even if the rest of the class doesn’t. I’m sure my friends and I are funny enough to make sure the gags at least get a snicker out of you all. I mean, we DID win the People’s Choice Awards at Shot to the Face this year. If THAT movie won, then by golly, whatever we come up with later is sure to get sniggers.
So, keep in mind that the class blog is different from this new GP blog. This is the production blog. The official webspace for the episodes will be on this new one.
P.S. I’m starting on the program too, although I’m having a little trouble with ideas for the layout. Whenever the people get the fliers, I’ll probably base a design off that. Otherwise, I’m not too worried about it. InDesign is an easy program. I can knock one out in a little bit.
