FML Movie Spotlight: RossTanner

In the attempt to share more useless junk I also posted some of the goofy movies I have made in the past on Revver. In Web 2.0 obsessive fashion I have tracked their views too. Nobody has seen them. So I am now creating a new useless category, FML Movie Spotlight. I am going to highlight a FML movie in the times that I have absolutely nothing else to say. I am going to show the movie and you can read more about it by clicking on the read more link at the end. Enjoy!

Let me introduce my first gem:

RossTanner

RossTanner was little creation I wrote for a Midway production. We had a “stolen” show them built off of a parody of Whose Line Is It Anyway? I grew up watching those Bob Ross shows and got the ironic humor of the foo foo methods and speech. I love the myths about him also with the sniper stories and other junk. The basic idea was to take Sharon Tanner, our principal, and her big personality and paste her in all of these show rip-offs. The portraitures crack also came from a conversation where we couldn’t figure out what to call a portrait. Duh. We used a little lovely hyperbole with the broom and the final painting done by Jolee, the art teacher. The final print is actually pretty close to Sharon’s own personal taste though. No humor needed there. The best part, in my opinion, is the b-roll footage of the hand close ups. I was in a last minute late night editing session the day before show time and felt that it needed a little more. I figured that it would be funny for the cut away to the hand be to a man hand. Indicative of super low production you see in cable access, which PBS was just a step above for the longest.
