Recently, I was introduced to a concept in the entertainment industry called the Webisode. Many major television networks are starting to use the web to "air" shorter and different versions of popular television shows like "Heroes." Viewers tune into their computers instead of the television. Popular because of the YouTube craze, the webisode is a great source for up-incoming producer/directors to get their films seen by the public and production companies, such as InPoint Productions, film and edit webisodes for many clients in the United States.
Producer Chris Roberts asked if I would be Department Head on his new project entitled Zed Lapel Pin. Shot documentary style, this short comedic film (webisode) chronicles the lives of an "air guitar" cover band by the same name, who travel to local bars and "air play" to Led Zepplin songs.
On a shoe-string budget and a ton of passion, Chris and Chad Clabaugh (the director) pulled together an amazing crew of talented locals and a cast of great actors, making the 3-day shoot a blast to work on! Here is a listing of the crew and main cast:
