Hi, Friends!
We’re Michael and Lisa Hendel. We met at The Second City Film School in Chicago and are eager to get back to creating comedy short films together!
In this PILOT episode of A LOT LIKE COMEDY, watch us pick our very first filmmaking prompt that inspires us to each make our own comedic short films! We take you behind the scenes of how we brainstorm story ideas, write scripts, direct and edit our films before screening them at the end of the episode!
If you’re an emerging filmmaker or comedian looking for a boost of comedic inspiration, join us on this fun and laid back “how-to” journey for making independent comedic short films on a budget! We believe this is great “introduction to filmmaking” content to hopefully inspire you on your creative path.
Not a filmmaker and just enjoy good old fashioned funny sketch comedy? Heck yes! Welcome!
We hope you enjoy the process of making a film as much as we do!
Warmly,
The Hendels
