Feral Businessmen

Hi

A while ago the JunkMales got together to make a video called Feral Businessmen along with some people from 4Laughs and some BSG's (see if you can spot Ellie in mime makeup). Please (those that haven't already) check it our and post us some feedback.

Thanks guys.

Saw it a while back. Loved it.

Only crit is the gap from 45 secs to 1:00 15 seconds of dead time is far too long and scary for me. I'd personally have cut it. It added nothing and delayed what is a generally tight sketch. Other shots were a tiny bit loose, but that's being picky on what is a brilliant sketch / production.

Well done.

I too liked it, the mime feild I feel could have been a seperate sketch in itself.

But yeah all in all a good sketch, I only recognised one of three girls in a boat actually, the rest (due to not knowing what you look like) are strangers.

PS - love to get involved with one of your sketches some day.

Nice one Junkmales! :)

It was ok, but didn't like one the blonde mime, totally spoiled it for me. :P

Seriously though, I echo what Slag said.

I liked this and really liked the transition shot from the mimes to the feral business men. It added class to the sketch so whoever came up with that shot deserves a biscuit.

Hiya Paul, we are up for acting (if you can call it hat) and writing.

Feel Free to PM you with what you had in mind.

Thanks for the kind comments people very proud of this one.

Hehe -- this is quality. Really good stuff. Well done, Junk Males and Friends!

Laughing out loud

I may take you up Danny, once I get a car ect. :D

Well done on getting this made, guys.

I really like the Mime Field bit (some of the miming was suspiciously good) but thought you'd be better off making it a separate sketch. By attaching it to the businessmen part you end up with a 'world's shortest sketch show' kind of a thing, and the effect is a little baffling.

As for the Feral Businessmen sketch itself, I agree with SlagA that it could do with a touch of trimming. We see two different guys foraging for food/drink. It's essentially the same joke. Do we need to see it twice?

Up to the usual standard.

I liked this.

I did think a few bits were overlong, but that's not really a problem with the content. A little trim is all that's needed.

I liked the way that the mimefield part segued into the feral businessmen part. It could work alone as two seperate sketches, but it just depends how you want to do things. Most sketches on Monty Python were vaguely connected, so it is possible.

yep!

Very good.

Hello,

Just bumping this (hopefully not breaching any rules) just in case some people haven't seen it, as we are slowly approaching the 1000 mark which would be monumental if we could breach it with the help of you guys.

Also worth mentioning... This one, also approaching the big milestone.

So please watch, comment and hopefully enjoy.

Danny
