Looking to film people's sketches (or co-write)

Hi there,

I've got a camera and a mic and a desire to make some sketches. I've tried writing my own but I find the process a bit too painful. I've never co-written anything but willing to give it a go.

My favourite comedians of the sketch world are Armando Iannucci, Chris Morris, Mitchell and Webb, Fry and Laurie etc.

I'm based in Bethnal Green.

Cheers,
Bertie

Most modern-day wannabe moviemakers have no idea how to use a camera OR a mic but still insist on using both, usually to disastrous effect.

Remember, the greatest comedy film-makers of all time had only a camera.

Food for thought?

How many vowels did they have?

I'm going to need some video stuff quite soon mate (a few weeks) - it'll be stuff that I've already written but I'd be open to ideas. It's mainly very short pieces - like a couple of minutes each. I'm doing about 30 to start with, so you could maybe do a couple if you want - I won't be able to pay you but you can have credit and if we do more later it might lead to something
