STICKMAN

Christoper Ford at Waverly Films put together a great set of stick man comics for atom.com. I get to do a couple voices including the opening VO. In "Hangman" I'm the voice of the Hangman and in Episode 5 I play the true romantic.

SANDWICH OF TERROR!

The guys from Escape Pod Films did a great job with a little series they put together for Channel101. I play a HAMM Radio enthusiast. I also have a beard! If you like the first vignette then stick around for the second 2.

Working On The Bar

Right now, at this very moment, I am working on one of 3 (yes, 3) webisodes that my friends have put together and cast me in. This one happens to be called "The Bar" and it is written by David Crabbe and Lucas Longacre. It's about some young New Yorkers trying to make sense out of their busy lives and it is all centered around, you guessed it, The Bar.

REALITY

Waverly Films is a cool collective of like-minded directors that have done a bunch of great stuff. You can find them and their hilarious weekly shorts here. They did a great spot for Collegehumor.com and Edge Gel with me, Molly Lloyd and Charlie Sanders. Molly and Charlie are both improvisers at UCB. Molly is blowing up! We did a tiny little Children's Theater show called "Wishing Time" years ago and now she is all over tv as a super successful commercial actor. And if you don't know who Charlie Sanders is then you are truly missing out. His autobiographical show "Minnesota Muslim" has received a lot of attention and great press. He is a great guy, a great teacher, and a great improviser. I like him a lot. This was the golden age of our relationship:

McCain Attacks!

Once again, those cleve guys from Landline put together some funy stuff ased on John McCain's attack ads. I am in the David Lynch segment about 1 minute in. And yes, that is really me screaming.

What comes after CNN's Holograms?

Remember when CNN premiered their "holograms?" Well the Landline guys did a nice little mock-up of what the future of tv may look like.

New Hampshire Lottery

There are moments in the life of the commercial actor which truly allow you to transcend the daily grind of auditioning, rejection, and hustling that comes with territory. Then there are the days when you have to wear a black bodysuit, a plexiglass box, and a jester's hat. This time was one of the latter. I worked up in Manchester, NH (Manch-Vegas to those in the know) with the folks from Redtree productions. ust in case you don't know, Redtree Productions does a lot of the major stuff around the Boston area and are some the coolest, kindest, smartest people around. Plus, they have their sh#t together. They made the fact that I had big Mickey Mouse hands a lot easier. Well, them and the sweet sweet paycheck. INTEGRITY!
