Makin' up a mess of fun

[barrington]

So last weekend there was some roleplaying convention on in Melbourne, and yours truly brought a film crew to the party. It's all in aid of a pilot for a geek culture variety show, and I'm told we got 5-10 minutes of gold material at the con, which will not only be respectful but downright idolatry about the whole thing. For me, the highlight was my Top Gear-esque moment, hefting a lifesize model of an Ork shoota for the camera and describing the kick it would have if real. I mean, hell, if that's presenting for television, I have refined my calling in life and will be working all the harder to get a Lab Coat pilot off the ground (though I found out the ABC have given Dr Karl and Adam Spencer some money for a television program, so it's possible I may have waited too long).

I have a few other projects on the boil right now; it's an exciting time to be the Man in the Lab Coat. Now, I just need to work on it also being an exciting time for Benjamin McKenzie, and I'll have it made...

Also, Impro Sundae continues. Every Sunday. I mean, I'll keep on saying it until people keep on coming. I'm playing this weekend, if that helps. You know the score: 5pm, Comic's Lounge, North Melbourne.
