Up to CrewsWanted: MittyMoo
Ok, as some of you may know, my favorite online video of all time is "Christmas Tree." It was made and uploaded by a user named "mittymoo", whom I contacted last winter to get production notes. Alas, I never heard back from mittymoo. He's recently uploaded two videos, one of which is hilarious (the other, "My Son Is Gay," is pretty good but a bit too one-note to stand up to "Christmas Tree." Check out "The Dance," and if you can put me in touch with mittymoo i will buy you all the egg nog you can drink.
Behind The Scenes Comedy
There's a lot of different ways to make your mark in the world of online comedy, but it seems like the key to really standing out (besides being really freakin' funny) is to take a different approach from the kind of material that's already out there. A great example of this is the Patrice Oneal podcast, which launched a couple months ago.
Unlike most video podcasts, each episode of Patrice's show doesn't feature a sketch - it features the making of a sketch. And the behind the scenes antics of Patrice and his crew are consistently more hilarious than most regular sketches you'll ever see. Check it out....
Allow myself to introduce...myself
Hey Comedy peoples…
Welcome to the brand spankin’ new Daily Reel Comedy crew blog. This crew has been created for all of you who make funny videos – or at least try to. I’ll be your host and you can look forward to hearing from me just about every day on the latest and greatest in the world of online comedy videos as well as tricks of the trade and other assorted nonsense.
To kick things off, I guess I should tell you a little about myself. In addition to my new responsibilities as the Daily Reel’s comedy kingpin, I am the “brains” behind WhipItOutComedy.com – a site that regularly features some of the funniest videos on the web every single day (except for the days where we feel lazy).
I’m also a partner in Take The Stairs Productions, a production/management company that produces movies, TV, online series, live comedy tours, and manages comedians.
Anyway, I hope to make this crew blog a daily must-read for comedy content creators (and buyers) so in order to do that, I’d love to hear from some of you about the kinds of things you’d like to see blogged about. Feel free to leave a comment or shoot me a message to let me know what you’d like to see more or less of as we get going. Thx!
