STAY TUNED MEMORIES 9/19/05

The slogan of our campaign, "PSTV...it's unexplained"

In the Fall of 1997 there was a show on our college television station that was called Stay Tuned...

One of the first things produced by the cast of that particular season was a promo series that was themed after X-Files, the popular Fox television show. Myself, Chainsaw, Tyler and Shane started what would become an ongoing storyline that never answered any questions and basically was an excuse to shoot at night and look mysterious.

The funniest part of the promo series is that we rarely said anything and whenever we wanted a plot twist we would just have someone point off in the distance and act catatonic with shock. It was a useful device since we never introduced any clues or any real detective work.
That was the beginning of a very creative period for our crew. Since then there has been a void of really good projects that stretch the creative skills of our fraternity of fools. Hopefully we can fix that in the future.
