Introduce Yourself : Hello, I write and direct a wacky little web series: by James Kopp

Hello, I write and direct a wacky little web series:

There really isn't much to tell about me. I had a pitch for a TV pilot on ABC that never got picked up, so I made it into a web series. This is the third episode of the series. We plan on making 13 of these, all 22 minutes long, over the next four years........yes, four years. Time, I've got, but money, not so much. This was shot on a Blackmagic camera with 6 different lenses. The total budget was $2,500.00 (including post). It was shot in 4 days at 4 different locations. Give it a look if you have time. I would also love to talk shop with other web series developers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IOK9CbmeXE

I like the writing. I like the jokes. I like the characters, The acting is okay. I think you need to improve on the directing. Add some more movement during the dialog. Your actors shouldn't be just standing there and talking. Change the lighting and camera angles during the scenes that are supposed to be scary. I don't mean to be critical I really like it.

Good luck James! We've been working on our web series on and off for 2+ years. It's a process...

James Kopp

Thank you all for the kind words. And I never take notes as critical or as attacks. Just notes. Yeah, I don't like a lot movement in my shots, I think it's done too much these days.
