The Elf Boy Saga

Episode 1

And now the story behind this wonderful little webseries. Many, many years ago, right after my family moved into our new house, my brother and I took the camera and filmed episode one.
It wasn't "Episode One" at the time. It was just plain "Elf Boy". That short video was actually pretty good at parts for 9 year old and a 5 year old to make.
 This bizarre film became an inside family joke and several years later, when we were bored, I filmed Brendon and basically just told him to start acting like a lunatic. Then came episode three, just a few weeks ago. No explanation necessary. ;)

Devin and Devlin




My finished film Devin and Devlin is slightly shorter than I expected.

About a year ago I began writing a script for a sci-fi comedy called Devin and Devlin.  It had it all: Spaceships, alternate dimensions, Dr Who jokes.  Several months went by after the script was finished and then I filmed the first scene.
A few months later I filmed the second and even longer after that (by then my braces were even off) I filmed the fourth (we tried doing the third but I lost my pants half way through filming and the camera never actually had batteries in it).
Now, a few weeks ago, I decided to just finish this project and put it out of its misery and just edit it.  But one thing stopped me in my tracks.

Almost all the footage was terrible.  Most of the dialogue was barely audible and the jokes were embarrassing.  The finished film you see above is all the GOOD footage.  Pretty awesome, right?
