Leesa Dean: Adventures of a Web Series Newbie

Adventures of a Web Series Newbie - Chapter 23: Missives From The Trenches

Chapter 23: Missives From The Trenches
by Leesa Dean

I’m officially on hiatus with both Chilltown and the Lele Show but it seems like I’m busier than ever.

Been working on the TOP SECRET PROJECT and the relaunch. Had a great shoot Monday. Really killer and a lot of fun. Then Tuesday had a long edit session that was also fun and wildly productive. Also, exciting to see some of Monday’s footage up on the screen and how it even exceeded my expectations.

Before the session, I met with Kai Alexandre. I’ve mentioned him here before. He’s definitely one of the players in the web series game. A former MTV producer (and actor), he had a fairly popular series on youtube a few years ago called Potty Mouth TV. He’s resurrecting it as part of 3Senso, a brand new network he’s starting and seems to know everybody. He’s been a huge fan of ChilltownTV from the start. read article

Gonna have to be more careful from now on.

inspectorspacetimeseason2moneypleaCapture

Only a week left to go to contribute to INSPECTOR SPACETIME on Kickstarter, fans, and so far the show is short a substantial number of $$$. Looks like we’re all gonna have to come to the rescue.

Just like when all the fans in the world saved the 10th Doctor’s butt – and the world – from the Master on DOCTOR WHO a few years back. read article
