Above is the link for the first two episodes in my weird little new web series, Footastic Theatre. This is a study in producing for web as opposed to producing for video and encoding down to share.

The premise is really short amusing engaging scenerios. Video crack. Watch one and you need more and you want to see them over and over. That's what I'm working toward. We are showing only the feet of the talent. Why? Web video is best with close-ups and all headshots are not that exciting to me.

It was rediculously easy to get people excited about this project. I have more writers than I can use. No one is paid but I believe my high ranking on Funny or Die with the Southern Jewish Princess teaser clip got some attention and people wanted to hop on board. And there is also some buzz about funnynnotslutty.com and that never hurts.

So here are the first two episodes, I edited the simpler ones first. We have shot two more that I'll have up this month. Am fairly happy with the video encoding, especially with the action in the "A League of thir Own" looking alright after I changed my key frame rate, ala Ahron Rabinowitz's suggestions in his Internet Killed the Video Star DVD. I need to work on the audio setting more though. Not great. I think I used the wrong audio encoder for that part.

One of these is not safe for work...The other PG. We'd love your funny votes.

I think we are going to have some fun with this...

 Press release for my new site. It's going quite well. Be warned, the comedy on this site has some adult content. If you are offended by Southpark, you won't want to go there...

FunnyNotSlutty.com Gives New Home for Funny on the Internet 
Southern Jewish Princess Media Launches Alternative Comedy Site for the Fairer Sex 

Atlanta, GA, May 19, 2008 - Finding increased exposure for her comedy web series, The Retributioners, is a mountainous battle for Stephanie Scott. The producer is always hunting for sites beyond the youth-drenched YouTube and male-dominated comedy sites for an outlet that would provide a direct connection to her core fan base – lovers of female-based comedy. Then she stumbled upon FunnyNotSlutty.com. "At last, a site exists that places funny women out in front. FunnyNotSlutty.com provides comediennes and comedy writers a forum and a way to make sure women's funny videos are given proper due," exclaims Scott.

Publisher, Jacki Schklar, created the FunnyNotSlutty.com after surfing through online video communities looking for nuggets of choice humor created for an audience beyond the age of 19 and with sensibilities more appealing to females. “We feature comedy for women created by female producers, writers, humorists and comedians. Our content may be a little smarter and a little deeper than your average web humor,” explained Schklar.

The publisher, developing her own animated comedy series, envisions a purpose to the site beyond entertaining fans of female-based comedy. The interactive site strives to introduce, publicize and support female media producers and talent. An editorial section features relevant articles and projects with a monthly update. FunnyNotSlutty.com also features a social networking function enabling members to post videos, blogs, or participate in the Funny Not Slutty Network. Meanwhile, Scott attributes a boost in her series’ viewings to recent exposure
on FunnyNotSlutty.com. Female producers and writers are encouraged to submit story ideas and projects to be featured in the editorial section.
