I just laughed so hard at the comparison of the kid before smoking weed and after. And the dude trying to climb the wall in the meeting room along with panning back and forth to the guy sniffing the marker. Just stupid little things like that tickle me silly. Also, kicking the chair, I am like a monkey, I love repetition, makes me laugh.

Keep it up dude
I dig it

some honest critiques:

the edits seem to drag sometimes
this means that the jokes don't always land
I suggest that you edit things a lot closer together - people have shit for attention these days and aren't likely to tolerate dead air

speaking of that, what kind of microphone are you using?
there seems to be a pervasive hum in the episode I'm watching (The Seminar). This is likely due to an air conditioning unit - before you shoot turn it off!

your indoor shots seem a little flat and washed out
are you using a light kit?
your shots could greatly benefit from the use of three point lighting and other gaffing techniques
consider the use of a gel, reflector, a cucalorus or some combination to create a lighting effect

for example: I once created a television effect by using a Lowel Omni-light with a bunch of midnight blue gels. I reflected this onto a gold reflector which I had someone Hollywooding (holding by hand) and shaking to create a rippling effect. This resulted in a changing blue light which resembled watching television in the dark.

I was a little turned off by the word bromance. It reminds me of the teeny-boppers on the MTV. But like my honey says, "I will try anything three times."

You will of course, have to buy him said beer. Would be totally worth his insight being unemployed in his field.

Don;t let this once in a lifetime opportunity pass.

I got a credit card, biatch

however, my consultations are valuable (even though I often give them out for free)

I got that 190% NYC film cred which OF COURSE means I'm unemployed

Wow - so unemployed and using a credit card for beer at a bar - you really get how the game of life is played, don't you.

Sorry - I don't understand hipster speak.

No no, beer at a bar with a credit card with no employment is a great move. Sure to come up roses! Also - if you have a degree, why not offer to sell your "expertise" to these young men? Why give it away from free?

because they don't have any money either?

and because people in the arts are supportive of each other

for real though, if I thought they could pay I would charge them
and if I do any REALLY significant labor I won't do it for free

but I enjoy this stuff and I don't mind helping people out

I'm also looking for a career in the industry but that takes time

I'm pretty sure "time" is not what it takes to be in the film industry.

"time" is what it takes to get a job

gotta send out applications and hear back
and always keep working to get credits and build your reel

but since you're the expert what do you think?
how long have you been working in media?

there's potential for this to be funny

most of it comes from the material, which will get better with time

but i agree that production value is an issue, and moreover an issue that could be fixed pretty easily

tighter edits, better lighting, spend a little money on a decent mic and make a boom

There's nothing wrong with fucking and enjoying yourself and college tends to be a place where some girls really take advantage of the new found freedom. I won't lie, college was an awakening experience for me...however...and here's a story, feel free to ignore and skip down to the 'Moral':

So freshman year, guy in my building, let's call him "Sean". So I notice him and think he's cute, ends up talking with me and a few friends. I proceed to tell him all about how I once kissed a girl (mind you this was back in the day when this was a 'big' deal. (Note, I was making this up, I'd never kissed a girl). Anyway, cut to a few hours later, he tells me to come back to his room. I'm only too happy to go. First thing he says is, 'Wanna see my blacklight?' and I'm like, 'oooooh, yeah'.....well that was just the beginning of his 'lines'. I was giving him a blowjob but trying not to laugh at his ridiculous shit coming out of his mouth that he clearly learned from watching porn....'Oh suck it', 'You know you love it', 'You want that big cock in your mouth'..etc...etc.... mind you this was the second dick I'd ever had in my mouth. I go back to my room and of course tell all my roommates in great detail.

Next week, frat party, we go, I see him there and he says, 'so...you coming by my room later?' and I say, 'of course'. So I go, I'm naked, sucking his dick and he starts with the lines again, 'Who's your daddy?!', 'I wanna rub my dick all over your hot little body', 'suck it hard'...etc...etc...I can't remember what his other lines were but I know they were way over the top because when I got back to my room, I proceeded to tell all my friends his new lines. Well my one roommate thought it would be hilarious to write a bunch of his 'quotes' on our message board with the words 'Ode to Sean'. Well the next day my other idiot roommate was giving him notes or something for class and he walked into our room. It took all of 30 secs for him to see the board. I panicked and slammed my bedroom door, as did my other roommates. Needless to say he was fucking PISSED. He was screaming, 'GET THAT BITCH OUT HERE RIGHT NOW!' and I was terrified so I went no where. Anyway, he stormed out, I went to lock our door, he busted back in and yelled, 'ERASE THAT SHIT RIGHT NOW!' to which one of my roommates furiously went ahead and did.

Well I have a big mouth so EVERYONE in our building knew what happened and for the rest of that semester he avoided pretty much everyone in our building like the plague. He was really embarrassed and I suppose I would have been to. Cut to the next semester I saw him on Spring Break, we fucked, and were fuck buddies for the next 3 years so it worked out for both of us but that's besides the point.

Moral of this story is, I told a handful of people, not wrote a power point presentation on it and it caused a shit storm. He's a good guy and it would have been fucking terrible if his name was forever plastered all over the internet in a story like this. It's one thing to be a girl and 'have fun' doing shit like this, but it's quite another to completely expose someone and go to the extreme that this chick did.

they can keep the pace up if they take the scene from a lot of different shots

like every scene should get a close-up, medium shot, long shot, and do a lot of shot-reverse-shot
then when it is time to edit you can zip through a bunch of shots all Robert Rodriguez-on-meth style

there's some zingers in here
just gotta distill it down into that 190% comedy

"In the fashion world on a scale of Abraham Lincoln I'm about a John Wilkes Booth."
that's funny

also the Funeral DJs segment is fucking funny "We're gonna be mourning alllll night!"

Watched weed kills since it seemed to be the most talked about. I enjoyed the crazy censor block.

I'm actually really impressed with the amount of feedback I've been given (through PMs and whatnot), so I'd just like to thank everyone watched any of them (whether you liked them or not).

If you DID like them, it would be a huge help to us if you could post it on your facebook or something, or just show a couple of friends.

Much appreciated, guys.
