In Teh Toobs – Coverage

Monday, May 18th, 2009

Jill GolickIn the shameless self-promotion and recursive blog reference department I give you the post from Jill Golick’s Running With Eyes Closed blog wherein she heaps praise upon my efforts with In Teh Toobs.

I’ve known Jill for about 25 years now since we first worked together on Canadian Sesame Street. Since that time her work as a writer in series television and as an active member in the Writer’s Guild of Canada has been exemplary. More recently she’s been wading into the same trough of cultural chaos I’ve been wallowing in, pursuing the various forms of storytelling and narrative emerging across and throughout the interwebs.

Jill also organizes the Writers Watching TV events held each month at the Camera Lounge, the last one being a Web Creators Show & Tell where I got to show off the first bits and pieces of my work on In Teh Toobs.

Be sure to check out her Story2Oh web series and her most recent venture Hailey Hacks – which is a really cool intro to web wizardry for and by our young digital natives.

Thanks for the promo, Jill!

Cheers.

In Teh Toobs

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

At long last I’ve opened up the web site for In Teh Toobs – a new weekly web series featuring the intrepid but hapless canine Cmdr. Riley aboard his trusty and rusty spacecraft, the STFU-1138, as he journeys through the interwebs.

This isn’t a full episode – just a prelude:

Tonight I’ll be at the Camera Lounge talking about In Teh Toobs and other projects for the Web Creators Show & Tell evening organized by Jill Golick. It’s part of a larger series of monthly events Jill has put together under the auspices of the Writers Guild Of Canada called Writers Watching TV.

Also participating tonight are Scott Albert and Christopher Guest with their web series Team Leader and Jill will talk about her new web series Hailey Hacks.

Should be a fun night. If you drop by please be sure to say Howdy.

Cheers.

P. S. I’m trying out a number of different video hosting options for the In Teh Toobs site and while although pretty much set on Blip.tv I must admit I was pleasantly surprised to see the quality of the YouTube post:

Maybe it just looks better on the YouTube site. Let me know what you think – I want to be sure I’m making the right choices.

Thanks.
