Had a long-distance Skype meeting with Jason and Marc on Monday about getting a Kickstarter campaign going for our webseries pilot. We left with the following tasks: Marc has to come up with a general story arc for a 6+ episode season; Jason has to contact our lead, research Kickstarter stats, and come up with a budget; I have to develop a social media plan (anyone who has advice or experience is more than welcome - nay, ENCOURAGED - to share lol). SO I'm starting that here, lol -
Follow our character on Twitter, and
Add him on Facebook! I will probably pimp him again once we have more of a solid grasp, but there's no harm in starting early. Like I told Gemma, here is the basic premise of the show:
Click for biggerHe is a stuntman with some Michael Scott elements, he is awful at stunts (which he refers to as Actionology) but thinks he's the shit. He realized his calling in middle school when a bully pushed him down the stairs and all the kids clapped. He mistakenly thought they were clapping at his wonderfully stunt-like fall, so he's made it his career. He curates bonsai trees on the side (ironically, he is amazing at it, and his father resents him for succeeding where he has failed - it is a trend in the Smart family). He's hired a crew to make a documentary on his life and the merits of Actionology as a lifestyle.
I'm going through our casting session/original interview after I write this entry OR NOT, BECAUSE THE DRIVE WON'T READ, I hope to have clips to show you guys sometime very soon because our actor is a fucking improv genius. In the meantime, please add him on all the social media places. Also, he has a tumblr!
