Less than 24hrs after I told Ben Wright (star of such classics as our short films Open Doors and Like a Soapbox) my idea for a podcast for us to do last night, we are now starting what we hope will become a regular podcast - taking various popular DVDs and recording our own comedic insights and thoughts in the form of a commentary track. Today we recorded our first episode, and it’s a fun one.
I hereby present to you Episode One - Twilight, the film adaptation of Stephanie Meyer’s classic novel.
Neither of us had seen the film before, but we hope to provide both comfort and company for all those forced into watching the film, as well as a fun re-watching for fans with a sense of humor. It works as a standalone podcast, but is really a lot better when you have the movie to go with it.
Download the mp3 here (right-click and save as), and enjoy!!!
The musical accompaniment at the start and end of the track are from Childish Gambino’s “Get Like Me”. It’s a free download, so have fun with that.
P.S. if the tagline in the above image was more prominently in the film’s marketing, I would have been a lot more interested in seeing it earlier. The film didn’t follow through on the promise of that question, but it still seems like a really powerful theme to explore.
UPDATE: Episode Two is out and you can subscribe to us on iTunes!
While I find it difficult to quickly and effectively explain, I am super duper pumped for Google Wave. The concept boils down to one idea: “What if email was invented now, with today’s technology?” without the baggage of being a 40-year-old tech, which it is. It excites me for a huge number of uses, cheif among them film production, business, and schoolwork
Y’ALL READY FO’ DIS?!?!
above is the announcement video/in depth presentation and demo at this year’s Google developer’s conference, I/O. Enjoy/O. ha. get it?
