Southern Twist Comedy Show

Erin and I took the scenic drive up to Ellijay, GA to visit the Southern Twist Comedy Club.  We conducted our first session of interviews with 4 different comedians.  We got plenty of great footage and also found some direction for our project. The trip was very successful.  Not to mention the fact that we managed to escape a speeding ticket with just a warning.

Here is a little taste of the experience.  An outtake with one of our featured comedians, Derrick Tennant.

Maybe I should give it a try?

So Logan and me hit Java Monkey last night for open mic comedy show. I've always been a fan of comedy and as a kid I used to wonder what it was like being Eddie Murphy, LOL! So the thought occurred to me that maybe I should give it a try? Could it really be all that hard?  Now I don't want to be a comedian and I don't think I'm funny, but I think it would give me a real perspective of what it like up there Bombing one way or the other.

Tukes

Funny Monkey

Logan and Tukes stopped by comedy night at the Java Monkey in Decatur last night and spoke briefly with the emcee of the night, Joel Byers, who is very willing to help us out with the project.

Joel has many connections throughout the Atlanta area and will be an important asset to our project.

Contacted Derrick Tennant about filming for the week. Tennant confirmed availability for the week, which means a group consult is in order to determine shoot dates. Tennant is hosting a comedy show in Ellijay, Ga on Saturday, March 17 at 7:30 p.m.

It Begins

To begin the foray into stand up comedy, the GSU comedy group contacted comedian Derrick Tennant (leftarmcomedy.com) for interview. Interviews were scheduled for the week of March 11-16.
