Getting Crafty

After much consideration our board of directors have decided that arts and crafts will be the key to 'I Eat NY' fundraising. To that effect, Liza and I spent the weekend making T-shirts and greeting cards to be sold at next weeks screening. Get 'em while they're hot.
And take it from me - they're hot!

And a quote from one more test audience who, i might also add, works for our bradcast network:

'it's not like anything you see on TV'

Test Audiences

Thus far the first episode 'Street Food or Cheap & Easy' has been viewed by 2 and a half test audiences.

Test Audience Feedback :

'is that place near here? i want to eat that for lunch today'

'it's an existential food show'

Premier Screening

We have just finished shooting and editing the first episode of a Manhattan acccess show called "I EAT NY". It's an energetic 28 minute food show, with interviews and eating vignettes set to original music. This show is an experiment and it turned out to be a fun mix if silly and sincere. I'll probably be a little embarrased but its all in good fun and I am really very excited to share it with you. The Remote Lounge will host the premier screening of our first episode. Please join us Tuesday, June 15 from 7:00-9:00pm. Remote Lounge is located at
327 Bowery Street.

Here we go

Liza and I have been up to no good.
We've been up to no good for a very long time.
We've been EATING and COOKING and ROAMING THE STREETS.
All the while, learning the ropes at MNN
making nonsensical videos and chopping them up into
some semblance of a god-forsaken television show.
I will follow this up soon with more detailed information
about the upcoming screening of our show I Eat NY.
