Add Comment Please watch this short, called The Taste of Coffee, that I made with Phil Magbitang, Phil Casale and Gaby Dunn. We improvised it over the course of a single day, and it was a lot of fun to make. The performances have a nice, natural feel that I enjoy, and I’m happy with how the lone special effect in it came out. I don’t want to spoil anything, so you’ll have to watch this to see for yourself. We shot this in September, and ended up with about 4 1/2 hours worth of material. I’d promised my PITtv team Top Secret Projector Room that I’d get it down to under 5 minutes, so it took a very long time to complete. There’s also a lot of funny stuff that I couldn’t include. But enjoy this! Check out the new video from my PITtv team Lefthook called the Baby Who Probably Wished He Had No Fathers. I made it with my teammate Thomas Michael because a) we wanted to test out some new camera equipment I’d purchased, and b) we want to make improvised comedy videos. The “I” in PIT does stand for “improv”, after all. We gathered up a couple friends, went to the PIT and recruited a few other people who were hanging around. This is what we came up with. We think it came out well enough so that we want to make more improvised videos, albeit perhaps with a bit more planning involved. But I still think this is a really funny movie, and the performances in it are hilarious.
