ABOUT THE PROJECT:
REWRITE WEBISODE SERIES
Head Writer Jeremy Palmer
Episode Writers: Gregg Vigil, Lucy Roucis, Maggie Whittum, Toby Yount, Kevin Pettit, MacGregor Arney
Produced in partnership with Mitch Dickman and Listen Productions
This fall/winter Phamaly will be filming its third webseries, REWRITE. The episodes explore culturally relevant texts – including the Constitution, the Bible, and A Christmas Carol – in mockumentary style incorporating the disability perspective. The webisodes will be filmed in a variety of locations around the Denver area. The schedule for shooting the videos will be based on actor and crew availability in August. Participating in a webisode would require memorization of lines, and one day of location filming, most likely not to exceed a few hours.
Actors will receive a stipend for filming days.
