Improv - Blog Posts
Compilation of random junk I was saving to post in different piles but got lazy. The first three things were from last year from school, ignore the weirdness lmfao.
Middleditch and Schwartz is great improv. And I'll tell you what when i went to see Ben perform improv live in chicago, holy shit did it not disappoint. This was a bit ago but still the best day ever. If you don't know who Ben Schwartz is or have never seen long form improv, I reccomend the Netflix show Middleditch and Schwartz. No i am not a bot. Yes, Middleditch did get in some trouble and is no longer prominent in the comedy world. However it is still a great show and 3 episodes of comedy gold!
Black Root emceeing at Boom Bap Society #61.
Apparently my director went to see a production of West Side Story a few years ago, and the guy playing Chino forgot his gun before coming out for his final scene. Once it got to the big scene where he is supposed to shoot Tony, he screeched “Poison Boots” and kicked the actor playing Tony until he went down. The girl playing Maria then had to jerk the shoe off of Chino’s foot, and had to do the gunshot scene asking “How many kicks Chino? How many kicks, and one kick left for me”.
May the force be with me next year so I can finish stuff on time.

Hi tumblr! In case you didn't know, I run a very silly DnD-esq improv mystery show on Drawfee called Drawtectives! Here's the intro that me and @dilfosaur made for it that I'm very proud of. The way that it works is that I write the season / episodes before hand then make all of the main assets before we record, then we run it like a DnD campaign without the dice rolling or skill checks... or skills. The show is in it's 3rd season but you in NO way have to watch the other seasons to jump right in! Just join in and solve a mystery or two with this found family of lovable idiots all played by a... found family of lovable idiots (us the Drawfee team). Episode 1 of Midnight Alley can be found here and the playlist for the season can be found here! New episodes every month unless the baby arrives sooner than anticipated.
I really hope you all enjoy it and if you do, please share it with your friends!

for all the people who got into ttrpgs through things like critical role and dimension 20 and want to start playing themselves, I urge you strongly before you join full campaigns, to play in one shots, trust me they are a life saving stepping stool into learning how to play longer campaigns. I can understand wanting the longer narrative that full campaigns can offer but the skills that cannot be learned from watching others play (which trust me there are alot more than u think there are), can be learned at at least a basic level with shorter games and one shots, which have way less pressure and are much more suited to being a learning environment. Alot of people I know who just got into D&D recently think they can just jump into campaigns and it will be just like what they imagine and get disappointed and also overwhelmed by how much learning is required. One shots and shorter games help so much with just understanding improv, how a games mechanics works, and how to work with other people in telling a story while being a much smaller stakes activity. And I know alot of people are into TTRPGs for the long complex narratives but trust me even shorter plots can be complex and interesting and also I have to add REALLY funny because making stupid shit intrinsic to the world is alot easier when you dont have to uphold said stupid shit for many many sessions. And if u are like me you will come to love one shots just as much and sometimes even more than the much longer ones.
