Welp, we showed the fine cut of FSU to the class on Fri. and got a lot of laughs, which was a relief. You know how it is when you’re working with something for so long and become so wrapped up in the details that you can’t step back and see it objectively? The whole forest for the trees thing? Yeah, Sorrelle, Sean and Chandra have been at that stage for the last five weeks at least. At some point the jokes evolve from funny to these highly technical beats, wherein the camera and character expression become tools for the punchline. Comedy is HARD. But the laughs were very encouraging, and reminded us that we were onto something when we started this thing clear back in Winter. Yes, Virginia, it IS a funny show!
We are meeting tonight to tackle the few notes we received from our peers. Time permitting, we may get around to those pamphlets we’ll be doing for the pitch, too. We also keep hearing horror stories about copyrights and Spongebob and how ideas get stolen all the time, so we’re currently looking into legally securing this concept as ours and making sure we’re not taken advantage of. We’d hate for anyone to steal the idea and not take the show, and as there is a likelihood we’ll be peddling this to more networks than just A.S., it’s best to be safe and smart about it.
ALSO, we got the M.A.S. Trailer to TCTV, so it should be airing a bunch between now and the screening. Now all there is left to do is evaluations, episode finalizing, screening programming, and some major celebrating.
Where’s the wrap party at, guys?

Once again, fantastic, fantastic job on FSU! It far exceeded my expectations of what I thought it could it could be, and I had high hopes from the start! It’s been a pleasure working with you, and good luck pitching!
I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED TO SEE IT!
