Sweaty Robot

Erin O’Hearn, the hot newscaster from 6 ABC’s Action News, gave a great report on Sweaty Robot last night.

Here’s the copy from the broadcast:

Philly Film Guys

Speaking of movies, a viewer tipped us off to sweatyrobot.com.

The site was formed by a group of friends in Philadelphia. It pegs itself as an exercise in egomaniacal world domination. In more modest terms, the site is filled with homemade shorts for fans of satire and sarcasm.

Its founders are Drexel alumni Eric Levy, Nick Gregorio, Juan Cardarelli and Matt Sanchez and Rowan alumnus Benjamin Davidow. Funny stuff, guys.

Turns out we’re on Action News tonight at 11pm. We would have missed it if Nick’s friend hadn’t called and said he saw a commercial for it.

We just shot a little screen test for Happy Birthday Harris Malden (our feature film). It’s a work in progress. You can check it out here:

Harris Malden wears his insecurity on his face in a curious disguise for everyone to see. No one in the neighborhood, not even his best friend Paul or brother Melvin, has the heart to tell him how ridiculous he looks with the thick black lie above his lip. Harris Malden fakes his facial hair, and as far as he’s concerned, nobody can tell. However, like dealing with a drunken uncle, it’s easier to let him be than confront the problem.

Harris has a sweet gig as a draftsman at a local firm, everyone on his block likes him, and he’s finishing up his degree at a real gem of a college, University of Philly Online. Everything is fine and dandy in Harris’ world. Until an outsider comes to Harris’ twenty-fifth birthday party and ruins everything by blurting out, “YOU FAKE YOUR MOUSTACHE!”

Now the whole gang has to deal with the repercussions without driving each other even crazier.
