As a follow up to our Seeing Eye People project, we caught real New Yorkers texting and walking and offered them the service.
Staring: Mikala Bierma, Dan Black, Don Fanelli, Ari Voukydis
A collaboration with BuzzFeed.
Citibike bike share racks have arrived on 26th and 8th. I’m a proud founding member! Paid my dues! (at Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre)
I had a chance to see this movie at a screening in NY tonight. It’s great! You can buy it direct from the creators for $5. The future of film distribution!
Watch This: Splitsider Presents ‘The Exquisite Corpse Project’ | Splitsider
Comedy website Splitsider just launched a new digital distribution label ‘Splitsider Presents’ and their first release is the hilarious feature film ‘The Exquisite Corpse Project.’ Available for $5 over at their website.
Director Ben Popik gathered together his former comrades from the legendary sketch group Olde English and tasked them with writing a movie. The catch: each of the five writers wrote 15 pages and only saw the previous five pages of the script. He then shot the movie they wrote, as well as documentary footage of the writing process and all the drama that it entailed, and put them all together into a unique comedy.
I had an opportunity to see the move last night and it is really something special. Besides being extremely funny and charming, it speaks volumes about the creative process, collaboration and friendship. The way the documentary aspect mirrors the narrative they wrote is fascinating. The film becomes much more than a silly project, but rather evolves into a statement about human nature and relationships. You definitely haven’t seen anything like it.
The project I’ve been working on for the past year is finally live! Check it out! I couldn’t be prouder to be a small part of this amazing movie.
For the latest Improv Everywhere mission we posed as city workers providing a ridiculous solution to the “texting and walking” epidemic in New York.
This was a collaboration with our friends at BuzzFeed. Check out the post on our site to see a second version of the video!
I’m in Oslo this week at a conference with Alex Scordelis. We checked out the Viking Ship Museum today. Pretty cool to see 1400-year-old ships (and then pose with children’s props in front of them.)
Charlie Todd & I engage in battle at Oslo’s Viking Ship Museum.
Another great project/film from UCB’s Todd Bieber.
I’m a filmmaker and an Eagle Scout. This is my message to the Boy Scouts in regards the ban on homosexual members.
On Monday night I got to be on NBC Nightly News for 5 seconds. I appear as an expert on April Fools and say one sentence at the :47 mark in the video above. I’ve been on my fair share of news programs over the years, but this tiny opportunity got me the most excited.
I may be the only person under 60 who does this, but I DVR and watch NBC Nightly News every single day. I enjoy watching a dose of MSNBC for my politics fix (and reading Andrew Sullivan as well), but I know if I don’t have time for anything else, Brian & Co. are going to give me the top-line headlines of the day, straight and to the point.
So I was giddy to get to be on the show. While you can’t tell in the video, I was sitting at Lester Holt’s desk (used on the weekends) that once belonged to Tom Brokaw. Network news nerd dream!
The Today Show invited Cody and me to stage a marriage proposal April Fool’s prank yesterday. Willie Geist was the only one in on it apart from the producers who hired us. Pretty fun to prank Martha! As we left the greenroom after the segment she coyly remarked, “Goodbye, liars.” I was worried Natalie might remember me from our 2008 interview but I guess the beard fooled her.
