My wrists are throbbing and my eyeballs are dry. I've officially been editing for 16 hours straight and I might have forgotten how to talk. BUT! Check out this frigging kick ass video, featuring all of our past and current Chicago Underground Comedy cast members, plus several favorite guests.
I'd add more commentary but I'm seriously, seriously brain dead right now, plus, if I've done my job, the video will speak for itself. This represents four years of awesome comedy in four minutes. And, hopefully, the beginning of my real filmmaking career! (No, I'm not going to say "reel." That's just stupid.) But yes, I'm going to use this clip to shop myself around for more paid editing work. I love, love, obsessively love Final Cut Pro. Obviously.
Oh, and P.S., though I've been on hiatus from performing stand-up for over a year, one of my old jokes is included here - the ever-so-classy "Cheetos or dick" joke at the one minute mark. I really had very little audio of female comics that as usable for this project (I've learned a lot about mics and better sound in the last few months) so I threw that snippet in. Ennnnnnjoy.
