Party Girl Plus One Red Carpet Interview at the Stay Tuned T



LOS ANGELES - Are we ready for another next Sex and the City? Sex and the City 2 proves the market is still hungry to follow a women's journey about life, love, friendship and sex. And we've been on this journey way before Sex and the City started in 1998. But can the creators of Sex and the City take it any further with Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda or have they exhausted these stories and are ready to pass the martini to someone new?

Doesn't sound unreasonable by any stretch, as long as the execution meets the expectations. Sure Darren Star, Michael Patrick King and Candace Bushnell hit a home run with the fabulous four best friends, but whose to say it can't happen again?

Take for instance a new underdog web series Party Girl Plus One [www.partygirlplusone.com] created by an unknown actress and writer Jennifer Dawson. The web series follows Jennifer, referred to as "Jen", a 30 something divorcee whose abandoned her previous dating criteria and will date anyone and everyone until she finds her true Plus One. Chronicling each date in her dating diary, Jen uncovers a journey about life, love and self discovery.

The show takes off from a very simple premise. After a divorce and a stint in the rebound party lane, Jen has to start dating again. A series of strange and awkward outings prompt her to start keeping a diary. Party Girl Plus One is a look at that diary, as each episode is a self contained recount of the engagements. Through narration, each 4 minute episode chronicles the different social, cultural, religious and or economic (to name a few) obstacles Jen faces on her quest for true love, proving no one is exempt from their own dating neurosis including Jen herself.

For a web series, which often face the pressure of keeping the content between 4 to 6 minutes, the tone and comedy of the series is right on par with any HBO or cable comedy. The subject matter of dating, life and love is nothing new and yet in execution, this web series seems to have the raw hook and appeal that Sex and the City had when it first aired. The writing, performances and use of music are seamless and provide an excellent canvas to see this series played out as a half hour show including the dates of an ensemble cast. Not to mention the network style production value for a web series.

And the best part about Party Girl Plus One is that these dates really happened. The material is drawn from Dawson's own personal dating diary and each episodes is a scripted reenactment of actual dating situations that she experienced (of course names and identities have been changed). Dealing with adult themes for mature audiences in a humorous tone while maintaining relatability to the audience seals the deal.

Sex and the City, do not worry. You're stories about love, sex and relationships will continue to be told. Trust that Party Girl Plus One can handle the tall order.

Watch Party Girl Plus One at www.partygirlplusone.com or www.youtube.com/partygirlplusone.

WST Contributing Editor Mathieas McNaughton Joins Tubefilter

Mathieas slogging away on the latest web series exposeWith the Web.Files recap linked to earlier today, Web Series Today contributor Mathieas McNaughton began what we hope is a long and fruitful contributing writer stint at Tubefilter News.

A long time contributor to this site (since November 2008), Mathieas began posting longer pieces as far back as April 2009, when he contributed a great piece about Ashton Kutcher being the first to reach one million followers on Twitter, which was met with general acclaim.

But just like John Updike and the Reading Eagle, Mr. McNaughton has left home, surely for a bright future, and we will be watching.

And I can't wait to see my next video plastered on the front of Tubefilter. Or else there will be hell to pay!

"Think of Laura" Interpretive Dance Doghouse Challenge #1 - bigandawesomeproduct




Digg!
<===

Oh yeah. Hi Youtube! Let me introduce myself by putting on skin tight leotards from Goodwill.

Brian and I are trying to get into the ARG world this summer, and when we named our company, we errrr didn't buy the site right. We meant to. We bought hosting. Anyway, once we thought we were all in the clear, we started following ARG people on twitter. That's when our error was illuminated by Rowan72 with a beautiful bunny with a pancake on its head. For now, see that here:

http://bigandawesome.com

Hi Rowan! Hi Strifey

Accepting defeat and embarrassed, we bought a backup site ( http://www.bigandawesomeproductions.com ..so looooonnnnggg!!!)

In a tremendous act of kindness, Rowan has offered us a trade to get our original sleek domain back...or for the first time. We have to accomplish three challenges. This video is the first: We were instructed to perform an interpretive dance to Christopher Cross' "Think of Laura." I think you will probably never think of Laura the same way again after you watch this.

Song Ba-Donk'd at http://www.donkdj.com , and we definitely don't have the rights to it or a license to wear a leotard. Do not blame us for the 5 hours you spend at donkdj.com.

This is so embarrassing it should count double. Let us know what #2 will be, and we will do our best.

A Big and Awesome Introduction


Now that you've seen me in skin tight clothing, I think it's time for introductions.

I don't have much to add to the video except perhaps some links.

Follow us at twitter: http://www.twitter.com/bigandawesome

I have an amazing idea for the 2nd Challenge from Rowan72, but it's so huge. I need to be using all my time to work on our game (which is also pretty badass BTW).

I should definitely give respect to the inspiration behind the shooting and editing of this vlog.

This guy makes me laugh, and I think his vlogs are great. If we are half as entertaining as he is, then win!

Vampire Mob



http://www.vampiremob.com

From the press release:

“Vampire Mob” an original, episodic comedy web series, with cast members from “The Simpsons,” “Boardwalk Empire” and “Criminal Minds,” premieres June 30, 2010 on the web (http://www.VampireMob.com), with a preview screening party June 27, 2010.

“Vampire Mob” follows Don Grigioni, a hitman and vampire, who just found out his mother-in-law is moving in, for eternity. Don became a vampire because “it was a good fit” for is nocturnal life of crime. He never planned on biting his wife, Annie, and making her immortal, “but then I got hungry.” Annie felt bad that her mom would die one day and bit her, never discussing it with Don, and now mom needs a place to stay and blood to drink. With Don’s hit business slowing down, the last thing he needs is more “grocery shopping” to do.

Actress and author, Marcia Wallace, the voice of Mrs. Krabappel on “The Simpsons” is the mother-in-law, Virginia Jones, and her daughter, Laura is played by Kirsten Vangsness, known for her role as Penelope Garcia on “Criminal Minds.” Chris Mulkey (Twin Peaks. Friday Night Lights) who will be seen in HBO’s upcoming “Boardwalk Empire” appears in ‘Vampire Mob” as the owner of Marty Five’s Castle & New Life Organic Dispensary.

The lead role of hitman and vampire, Don, is filled by John Colella (CSI: NY, The West Wing), a graduate of the Goodman School of Drama, who will also be seen in the upcoming Sebastian Guitierrez film “Girl Walks Into a Bar,” premiering on YouTube and Hulu, and starring Carla Gugino, Rosario Dawson, Danny DeVito, and Zach Quinto. Reamy Hall (General Hospital, Bowfinger) plays Don’s wife Annie Grigioni, who guest starred this past season on “Criminal Minds” and will also be on screen in Sebastian Guitierrez’s upcoming “Girl Walks Into a Bar.”

Also appearing in “Vampire Mob” are Elizabeth Beckwith (Curb Your Enthusiasm), Andrea Cansler (The Groundlings Sunday Company), Jim Roof (The Swear Police), & Cris D'Annunzio (As The World Turns).

“Vampire Mob” was written & directed by award-winning filmmaker and comedian, Joe Wilson, who was working as a private investigator when he got the idea for “Vampire Mob” during an investigation. Wilson’s “The Swear Police” won best short under five minutes at the 2009 LA Comedy Shorts Film Festival. He is also responsible for the celebrity sex tape of Tickle Me Elmo “Tickle Me Harder,” which has over a half million views on YouTube and for selling “a jar of celebrity air,” air captured within proximity to Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, on Ebay.
