Tired of the Same Old Shit?

philippines-fake-news-wim-news-when-in-manila1

Do you have any issues with the government or how things are being done here? Are you sick of the shitty service you get from some monopolized industry where you have no other choice but to stick with the same shitty company? Do you have an outspoken, comedic and / or very angry commentary that needs let out? Do you need an avenue to vent your political, corporate, economic, personal or “stupid people” concerns? Are you itching to release your creativity? Do you want to do something fun? Well you’ve come to the right place!

We’re doing a local (Philippines) version of Jon Stewart’s Daily Show! So it’s fake news done in a creatively comedic yet still informational way. We’ve tried doing one skit (our first try at fake news) – and the feedback we got was AMAZING! So we’re going to try to do this more often; hopefully once a week.

So right now we’re calling on people who would like to help out.

We need fellow writers, and / or possible actors / actresses who want to be “Correspondents” on the show.

Please note that for now, this will be an online show. We have a three person team and are in no way able to pay any fees other than hugs and…. well… more hugs.

Below are some samples of “Correspondents” on the original Daily Show. We’re looking for people to act that way or write that way.

Please contact us ASAP! Vince@WhenInManila.com. We welcome original scripts but also have material for you already. Need male and female…. Hoping to shoot this Friday, July 17!
