My Big Fat Middle Class Street

Hi

I'm new to this forum, but would like to share a little mini series that I scripted and produced this year.

Hopefully the title gives you a clue as to the premise of the show. Episode 3 is my favourite and the funniest in my opinion,

Hope you like it

Erm that's one joke recorded over and over, is this a dadaist experiment?

I liked parts of it, was a bit long for you tube but can see potential, I like the filming and the stories you put together.

Thanks for the comments, yes if I have learnt anything it is to keep most things YouTube based short and punchy. I'm thinking could it work as short sketches perhaps instead of the whole episode thing....

It is a shame because it is clear you put a lot of work into it and the small details like the sex therapist leaflet and the filming is great, have a look at your you tube stats on audience retention, if people are watching a lot of it then stay as it is. If the retention is dropping off maybe you could make small sketches, something along the lines of Beth & Tim in bed after a visit to the sex therapist could be 1 small sketch, then Beth & Tim watching porn to beef up sex life could be another small sketch, they are just ideas overall I think it is good though.

Thanks, had a look at the stats, the sex one is most popular due to the title I think! Viewers don't tend to watch the whole episode, so you're right, if I do anymore, I'll do them as short sketches.

It's a shame really, viewers of internet videos have a short attention span (including me) and so anything more than a minute or so I guess is too long.....
