Shriek Watch has, unfortunatly, ended my dear readers.
Casper's adventures as a masked killer has come to an early end. This was a decision that me and Tom B decided to make after we tried to shoot the first episode.
The first was was because we tried to take Shriek Watch a little more seriously, the sillier aspects of the show was removed and it was turned into a more documentary style show. Yet it was apparently after the first shoot that this style of filming just wasn't appropriate for something like Shriek Watch, we wanted to make it like "The Office", but the concept of there being an industry of Masked Killers is just a little too silly for this new approach.
The second reason is that, the storyline for the second series was just WAY too complex for us to shoot on the budget of £0. It involved a lot of stunt work, green screen and screen doubles that, dispute thinking we had the ability to pull it off, we just couldn't do in the end.
The third and final reason is that, we just don't have enough time to shoot this year for another 10 episodes. It's nearly August and we can only have 2 days a week of shooting time, this means we have 8 days of filming to get 10 episodes done. Not going to happen.
Speaking of things not happening, for the same reasons as above, Prime Target 2 is currently on hold as well, however that should continue during Christmas.
So yes, Shriek Watch is cancelled, at least for this year. Instead we shall be focusing on some other projects we have lined up.
On latest video news, we have submitted an entry into the Kevin McDonald film "Life In A Day", it shows me and the team preparing for a film shoot on the 24th of July 2010.
Concerning The Suplah. The show is now going to be a Bi-Monthly show, with a new episode every 2 weeks. This means that we can fill up a show with more meaningful news, and have more discussions on it. On top of that we would like to introduce Alistar as our newest co-host via winning the co-host search! don't forget to check out his debut soon!
Till next time!
