    I'm going to translate the Graduates script into as many languages as I can, including calligraphy, so the whole world can enjoy!! I wish these characters were real so I could invite them over my apartment to play Risk.

    great use of the kino flo light system. the stuff looked very natural.
  •  
  • Zach B plus 3 years ago
    The writing was very well done. The lighting I thought, was a bit too harsh in a couple places, and heavy on the backlighting. This definitely reminds me of the online series "We Need Girlfriends" of which LaChioma was also in. The anti-Entourage threesome of hopeless dudes comically stumbling through life is nothing new, but you guys understand the humor as good as anyone else.

  • Yuri Alves 3 years ago
    This was so entertaining. I really can't see why a network wouldn't pick this up. Great writing and acting. Very well cast. Good luck with the project, you guys really got something here. Cheers
