Director's Update #2: Casting Updates and Webisodes

As you may have noticed on the right hand side of our blog we have some new additions to the Res. Life cast.

Those listed under "Cast" have speaking roles in the pilot episode to air on mtvU. There are still speaking roles to be cast and we hope to be wrapping up our efforts shortly.

Those listed under "Featured R.A.s" have landed themselves an exciting gig. Each of the actors will be featured in the TV pilot as the episode takes place on the first day of R.A training. In addition, however, we will be utilizing their talents (along with our lead actors) to film short, comedic episodes for the Internet. These "webisodes" (which we hope to also translate to "mobisodes" on cell phones) will introduce briefly the characters seen but not heard in the pilot and flesh out the world of Res. Life with unique stories, with many drawn from real Boston University R.A.s.

It's an exciting challenge to be entering the world of online and cell phone video as we shoot our pilot episode, but it's one we're up for.

More to come soon.
