IRL: In Real Life

One of my more recent jobs has been working on this short form series which will be on Bell Media Fibe One On Demand, created by Bobby Del Rio. It’s been very much a collaborative project, with a big group of like minded actors getting together to get it started. The very successful Indiegogo campaign described the concept like this before we went ahead and started writing:

“Through a collective improvisation process, our dynamic ensemble of performers examine the social media phenomenon and its effect on contemporary life. Each episode will be a stand alone short story, however when watched together these episodes will create a larger narrative.  Alienation, fidelity and online bullying are some of the stories you’ll see.”

Bobby assembled the mini writing room really well, and I am happy to have gotten the opportunity to map out this anthology series with these talented writers:  Ana Sani, R.J. Lackie, Aisha Porter Christie, Natalia Guled, and of course Bobby.  I wrote two episodes and I’ll post them here when they are released to the wider web after the Bell exclusive window expires.
