The Rob & Sam Sketch Show

As part of my own personal development, I was lucky enough to be asked to produce a number of comedy sketches from two young comedians in my area. While I cannot take credit for the writing of each sketch or the acting, I facilitated filming equipment, audio stuffs and lighting for the pieces. I then filmed and edited the sketches myself.
We then compiled all 16 sketches into two episodes which were released on the 22nd and the 29th September 2014. Both episodes can be found by following the links below:

As part of our advertisement campaign for promoting the product, We created two posters, one for both episodes and a trailer based off the opening credit sequence to both episodes:

First poster for the show, featuring Sam Woodrow, one of the two stars of the show playing his role in the sketch 'Jim'. Poster designed to grab the audiences attention, deliver the title of the show and also the release date.

The second poster image for the show, featuring Robert Thomas, the second star of the show. This poster was more successful than the first at attracting audience's attention. Also better translated that the show was a comedy rather than a thriller as the first poster sometimes put across to some viewers.

I believe the two episodes were a great success, particularly for two reasonably unknown comedians. Both episodes received over 300 hits within the first 72 hours of being published and continue to grow. Many of mine and their peers have congratulated them on its deliverance and we have had very little to no criticisms for them. The episodes have been such a success indeed that the two have employed me again to create a Christmas Special which is likely to be released sometime around the 11th December. 

In reflection, it has been great practice to better hone my skills as a film maker and work with different people and also offered me a better insight into the world of comedy and the different paradigms and characters associated with it. 

P.S in response to the amazing response we had toward the videos, we've since decided to release a Blooper reel which can be found here:

Containing all the funniest out takes from each sketch.
