Versus Valerie
Versus Valerie follows Valerie Lapomme, YouTube’s Sexy Nerd Girl, as she navigates her chaotic life, sliding between reality and her video-game and genre-bending imagination. I’ve been a long time fan of Sexy Nerd Girl. When series creator Mike Fly first told me he was creating a narrative-style spin-off I was delighted! This new show is terrific. Hannah Spear as Valerie is a riot – she is so captivating and so funny. There’s another great reason to...

Independent Production Fund trailers
You may have noticed a bunch of trailers, or proof-of-concept videos that arrived on the internet this past week. That is because the deadline for a funding application was due on Friday. The Independent Production Fund is a private fund we have in Canada that funds web series creation. Out With Dad has never been eligible for this funding, but a lot of our friends were and have received it. Such as Ruby Skye P.I., Tights & Fights, Bill & Sons Towing, fellow Canadian Screen Awards...

Pete Winning and the Pirates
Last summer I had the tremendous experience of co-directing and shooting a web series out on the open water with my new friend Mike Donis. This project is based on his short film: The Swashbuckling Adventures of Pete Winning and the Pirates, a short film set in the future after the ice caps have melted and Toronto is flooded. Pirates now own the open seas, armed with lasers. It’s such a fun adventure! Part way through making that short film, Mike decided it should be more than just...

LESlieVILLE
About two years ago, I was introduced to Nadine Bell. We were introduced because we’re both making web series. I remember her first sentence to me “Hi, we’re supposed to meet because we’re both making web series and we’re both gay!” Well, I’m not – but my show is! We hit it off instantly. She was still in the early stages of pre-production back then. Meanwhile, I was about to being production on season two of Out With Dad. When it came time to...

Clutch
Jason Leaver filming and directing Matthew Carvery and Caitlynne Medrek I’ve been looking forward to sharing this one with you! This gritty and exciting series in most ways is the nothing like Out With Dad. But there are several reasons why fans of Out With Dad might enjoy it. For one, the second season features our very own Caitlynne Medrek as Lex. She plays a character nothing like our beloved Claire! Will Conlon also makes an appearance in a scene with Caitlynne in episode 2×01...

Sweet Fever
I first mentioned Sweet Fever in my first ever “Web Series to Watch” article. It’s show that’s created in Toronto by friends I’ve met through the web series community here. Our very own Vanya Garaway (our 1st A.D.) and Bruce William Harper (our 2nd season cinematographer) worked on this show too! I’ve also had the pleasure of working with two of their cast members: Tiffany Claire Martin, who plays Sam, in the upcoming lesbian-love-triangle web series...
