Video: Ben & Jared Part 2

Dying to find out what happens to Intern? Mildly curious? Part 2 of The New Adventures is finally here!

The New Adventures of Ben & Jared — Part 1 has been up on YouTube since last November, and I’ve finally got around to editing Part 2. Considering that we shot this entire thing almost a year ago, I suppose it’s about time to release it!

Now we’ve been talking about making more episodes of this series for a long time now, so this likely won’t be the last adventure of Ben & Jared. Hopefully I’ll be able to shoot an episode and turn it around in less than a year next time 🙂

Fixed the forums

You might think that after three weeks my webhost would be able to fix a problem that they caused. You’d be wrong. 

I ended up just biting the bullet and getting brushed up on my php skilz in order to fix the forums myself. Thank you useless webhost tech support team; hopefully you’ll refrain from breaking my website in the future. Ugh. 

So yeah. The forums are fixed. Enjoy.

WSMC 2008

This past weekend I returned for the 7th straight year to produce the short film/awards ceremony video for the Washington State Math Championship in my hometown of Blaine, Washington. The video features Jared Reilly and students from Blaine’s Middle School math team.

I’m actually on the road doing some shooting in Boston right now so I haven’t been able to update the WSMC page on the site, but I have uploaded a 22 MB Quicktime of the video, and also uploaded it here to my archive channel on YouTube. I didn’t upload it to my main profile because I use that account exclusively for web shorts, etc

Thanks to everyone who participated and for the great response to this year’s video! I hope to see all of you next year!

Forums are broken

Yeah so my web host did what web hosts do best: messed things up. I’m pressing them to get the forums back up and running, but who knows when that will actually happen. Hang tight!

BEACH FORT!

Well, a new video is long overdue, and therefore I give you BEACH FORT, which is undoubtedly the most bizarre short I have ever made. I don’t really know how to describe it… much less if anyone should even be permitted to watch it. Click the link if you’re brave enough.

Crazy times

Well, it’s been a pretty crazy few months. Here is the short version: I finally got married, quit my job (and got a new one!) and have been traveling all over the place (Panama, the Sundance Film Festival, Massachusetts, New Orleans)… hence the lack of updates. I’m excited that the WGA strike is finally over, which means that the gears are going to start turning again on Gamers and my *almost* completed feature spec script. Meanwhile, “The New Adventures of Ben and Jared part II” is on the horizon… as well as some other new videos for the site. Oh, and for those who are curious (and bored), I’ve posted many of my old videos from high school through college in a new YouTube channel: http://youtube.com/MallahanArchives  GO GO GO!

Two pairs of notable YouTube directors square off in an epic adventure…

Put Gamers On TV is back!

Earlier today I re-launched Put Gamers On TV! .com… and now for the first time the full Gamers pilot is available online.

The full pilot is up!

I’m working on getting a downloadable Quicktime online… but for now go ahead and check out the YouTube link to the left!

The new site is up!

The new site is now online, and I’m making my final preparations to release the full spec pilot online in the morning. Until then, the embedded YouTube video to the left will just be the trailer.
