Why are you doing this?
A couple reasons. We wanted
to do something fun on the web. We all enjoy working
together. We love the interaction the show allows
with the audience who have been so kind as to watch
it. And we now feel proud to be part of a group of
growing creative types who utilize the specific qualities
of internet video to create unique forms of entertainment
that can’t be replicated in other mediums.
How’d you come up with
the name “iChannel”?
There’s obviously a lot
of definitions to that letter “I” (and
its homophones)—all of which seem to be relevant
to the show. Especially when the lower case “i”
has come to mean so much that’s tied to the
internet. Michael’s last initial happens to
be “I.” and we just thought it would be
interesting if we never used the character’s
name in the series.
Do you guys work on other
things?
This is our sole project on
the internet right now but we’re developing
a few more. You can check out the forthcoming cast/crew
bios for more information on us all.
Why does it take you so long
to make some episodes?
First and foremost because there’s
only a small handful of people working on this (check
out our behind the scenes video if you’re interested
at all in our process). And most of us have other
professional commitments in addition to personal ones.
Also, the creation takes a bit longer than most internet
videos because we have to wait a few days after we’ve
posted an episode to read your comments before we
can even start writing. And to be honest, we’re
not really “computer folks” so this all
takes us a bit longer to edit/sound design/upload
than it might for others.
