Really great look at Windmill Studios. Miss being on set with these guys.

[via:joshruben]

Here’s a little piece about Windmill studios. I’ve shot a ton of videos there and will whenever I’m in NYC. Bennett and Adam are two great guys who work their asses off and always provide a great studio for you to shoot in. If you ever want to shoot in NYC and need a studio space you should look no further. Also they are great at building pretty much anything.

Goodman Talking to NPR w/ Sawyer about their episode of Iron Chef America.

Whenever I hear Brian Goodman talk on the radio or see him on tv I can’t help but smile. His success makes me so proud and happy. Keep up the awesome work Newman. I really need to check out The Greenhouse Tavern.

Film students, present and past, please enjoy this sketch written by me and Dan Gurewitch.

A favorite sketch written by two of my favorite sketch written-ers ever.

This is really amazing… and frighteningly accurate.

Here’s a video I directed poking fun at Film School and all the silly things we used to do. It was written by Emily and Dan, produced by Creighton, edited by Nick, VO by Kelly, and shot by Carl. 

This was super fun to direct because I got to throw in a lot of homages to films my friends and I made. For instance the titles: “If Nick” and “Sorrowful Repentance” are two titles of shorts I made in college (I know). The title “Friday Night Riot” is a throw back to the public access show my friends and I had in high school called, “Tuesday Night Riot.” The shots in the, “Life In The Key Of A-Minor” are all similar to a couple of movies I made in high school and my good friend Bryan made Freshman year of college. Also Bryan makes a guest appearance as Bertrand Peffercorn. 

And my favorite homage is the title, “Miles Apart”, which is a reference to a student film my friend Travis directed in college. The film starred a young Josh Ruben and Sam Reich who, at the time, I didn’t know and now I work with. Enjoy it and Reblog it!

Shakespeare’s Kate and William

A pregnancy rumor most foul.

I can definitely say that this is the weirdest sketch I’ve ever been in.

It’s safe to say that this is the strangest sketch I’ve ever directed and I once directed this sketch

My photo with Gus from Breaking Bad

I’m so jealous I wish that was real, Sabia.

A close friend from home meets Gus from Breaking Bad in my girlfriend’s office to film an interview with him. How was I not a part of this in any way? So jealous.

How is “The Bible” like “Hanging with Friends”? Related: I’m pretty amazing at guessing words.

My favorite part about this picture is that I’m currently in a very intense game with Terinn (14 rounds across the last two weeks) and she was so kind enough to post this photo with the word she played right there for me to see. Thanks for the late christmas gift Terinn!
