Steady Now

Welcome back, Acting Fans and fellow bloggers and people of the Internet, it's Friday once again and time for me to have my say, my way!

So! Me and Chris got to have our weekly minimum meet-up yesterday in a coffee house (well, we are writers after all) and main focus of topic was to discuss what we shall still refer to as the Mystery Opportunity. And after much talking about the Mystery Opportunity we both ultimately felt at this moment in time we were not quite ready to take it. You see the Mystery Opportunity has only come to our attention recently and it would mean getting paid to do H&H stuff but we would only have 2 months, during some of which I shall be treading the boards (but that's for another post, oh yes, once a tease always a tease), to come up with something funny, that would work and what we would be happy with presenting to the public LIVE. So as much as Chris and I do want to do this Mystery Opportunity, we think it would be better for us to plan it out more thoroughly and make sure that we are happy with what do. Not some rushed version of a live show might not work so well, though the idea of making some money via H&H is tempting we remembered the golden rule - 'Never do anything for the Money'. To quote Neil Gaiman, "Every now and again, I forget that rule, and whenever I do, the universe kicks me hard and reminds me. I don't know that it's an issue for anybody but me, but it's true that nothing I did where the only reason for doing it was the money was ever worth it, except as bitter experience. Usually I didn't wind up getting the money, either." There's always next time, which is why we are keeping the Mystery Opportunity a Mystery in case we pull it off later. Despite putting it aside for now, we did come up with a number of ideas we will try to develop into live performances whilst we continue with our episodes and vlogs. Keep your eyes peeled, Acting Fans!

A blatant attempt at extra hits by using pure prime Tumblr bait, you say? Perish The thought!

Okay, so what else do I know you want to know? Ah, yes, we discussed some more about up and coming Vlogs (possibly new format ones), tried to get some more ideas down and think about a workable way to get on with shooting the last episode of series one. As we need to do it, for US and for you - The series 1 hiatus is getting crazy long now! Don't worry the Actor's log shall be continuing too, it's too much fun to stop.

We got on to a brief discussion about series 2, yep, we are still going to do a 2nd series too, like we said there is some very BIG plans for H&H. So please, please, please like and share our videos please. With a cherry on top. And all the Bells & Whistles.

Okay, see you all in the future and at H&H HQ two!

The World of Tomorrow...

Welcome to the Wednesday blog post, Acting Fans, where you find the H&H team wondering about where to go next as we follow Time's Arrow. If you haven't had the pleasure already, please make your way over to our channel to check out the latest Actor's Log, number 9, and the last to be filmed at our former HQ, the fanfare for Flat 2:

Now as we wait, we wonder. We have already mentioned we do have plenty to do for H&H in the Future but besides more videos (including the still to be filmed final episode of Series 1) what we haven't mentioned on the blog is that we have also mooted other things. We wonder about doing something a bit different next. Should we do something rather more radical and daring than simply posting videos to Youtube, something a bit more...alternative?
It just so happens that recently I have come across something that might fit that, and I have communicated the possibility to m'learned colleague. I don't want to say exactly what, just yet - especially as it may not come off - but the 'Mystery Opportunity', as I shall refer to it for now, will be the main thing that we discuss at this week's H&H tête-à-tête. For the moment I shall have to leave you wondering...
