Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
What Are You Thankful For?
Manny can’t understand why Rob hasn’t posted what he is thankful for. Rob’s answer leaves Manny disgusted. Guest Starring Frank Hejl. Shot and Directed by Alden Ford.

Facebook vs Tumblr! Holy cow this was a fun way to spend the day after thanksgiving. Frank is hilarious with the rude boy business.

Bread and Butter at The Gutter, Williamsburg’s coolest back room comedy show is back. This month it’s summer so we’ve gotten some hot comics to keep us cool ya dig?

Cory Cavin (Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Model Wife)
Willy Appelman (The Magnet)
Laura Willcox (UCB, Slacktory)
Alex Schmidt (College Humor Live)
As always the show is FREE and starts at 8pm. Hosted by Myself and Shannon Coffey.

The first part of the I Hate Being Single season Finale. I’m ecstatic to share. This was something I thought would be impossible to make but the help of friends and strangers alike through kickstarter made the project succeed with funding. T.J. Misny directed this episode and also put a LOT of pieces together and worked very hard to make it happen. The amazing cinematography was done by Adam Newport-Berra.
The insane steadicam work was thanks to David George Ellis.
Lorraine DeGraffenreidt did a great job producing this complicated beast and Dustin Drury of Dr Cool Sex was Assistant Director.
Our amazing cast includes stand up comedians Ben Kronberg, Eddie Brawley as well as Laura Willcox, Jocelyn DeBoer, Matt Klinman, Johnny Mcnulty, and Pat O’brien. All, hilarious performers at UCB and great friends of mine.
The Music is awesome as always by Jake Zavracky
We had the help of 40 or more extras, many many locations including the boat. It was 2 of the craziest and amazing days of my life.
I could talk for hours about the finale experience and how special it is to me but I’ll save it for another time.

The final result is a 15 minute short film that is split into 2 episodes. Part 2 will be released next Tuesday, May 22 on Ihatebeingsingleseries.com and you can get them in your feed automatically by following the series on tumblr.
A great way to stay updated on the show is the I Hate Being Single Facebook page.

I Hate Being Single

Loving this series! Tadaaaa! 

Episode 4: Wouldn’t Wanna Be Ya.

This was a super fun episode to make and probably the most challenging edit so far. I’m excited to add it to the list of episodes especially because it introduces a tone that we haven’t really done yet in the series so far. As always the cast brought a ton to the process and a lot of the little conversation bits were improvised. As I wrote this I went into ical to see exactly when we shot this and it was a year ago+1 day. How about that!!!!
If you’re digging the music of the series check out the SOUNDTRACK HERE by Jake Zavracky.

Rob is addicted to reminiscing! New Rob’s Room is up now and features Shannon Coffey! Reblog it if you have a friend who does this to you!

I Hate Being Single Episode 3: The Banker
One of my favorite Episodes. The story of this episode is very close to real life.

Last year I met a banker at a chase in the city whose name is Norbert. He was so so so nice. We would talk about goals, dreams, life, movies. I did sign up for a new checking account but it was a free upgrade! I would stop by his Chase often on my way home from getting groceries at Trader Joe’s. Over the course of hanging out with Norbert he told me what my name meant, recommended a pizza shop, an inspirational book, and a dvd store to me. We talked on the phone a few times and he would leave a voicemail, talk about something bank related and before hanging up he’d say, “Seriously, go see Suckerpunch.” which was in theaters the time. The last time I saw him he came to our stand up show in Brooklyn. It was a good time, and we hung out, he met some of my other friends. He was glad to get out of the city and meet some “creative” people. One day I emailed him about another show and it got bounced back. I called Chase asking for him and he was gone! He left the branch! They don’t know where he went. He’s not on facebook. I’ve searched for him before. So if anyone out there knows Norbert Delva from Chase let him know I’m looking to hang out! He knew I was doing an episode about him too, he gave us some of the promotional materials on Rob’s desk. He’s a good dude and I’m sure he just ended up at a better job. I wish he’d let me know where though!
