THE VIDEOMAKERS: Up and running (on lots of coffee)
The Videomakers, written and directed by Walter Gottlieb, is a satirical comedy web series about the overcaffeinated, overmedicated, and overstimulated world of nonfiction television and video.
As a crew member at Lowball Productions, Inc., production manager Cheri LaFontaine (Gia Mora) struggles to deliver programming to the Exculpatory Channel, Esophagus Network, and Hysteria Channel while holding the company--and her sanity--together.
