iReport —

My wife and I were both suddenly found to be unemployed just two months ago and instead of sitting and doing nothing while we wait for the resumes we've sent out to turn into jobs - we decided to make an action /adventure webseries! (because that's what you do - right?)

The show (six episodes to be released this week) was shot entirely on a small still camera set to movie mode that my wife and I got for Christmas two years ago. (Cannon Power Shot SD600) It's the same camera I've used for all of my iReports and I wanted to see what more I could do with it.

In addition to my wife and I, our lead actor, J. Anthony McCarthy is also in a similar employment situation and was eager to jump into this project to see where it can go. The three of us put in a lot of long hours and hard work along with the rest of the cast to bring you this unique show.

We hope you enjoy it and all this week I'll be uploading iReports on how we made this series for very little cost!
