DT Favorite filmmaker Matt Johnson (C'99, Mask and Wig, Phi Kappa Sigma) was fed up with the long primary and did something about it. ...He created a funny parody based on the I am Legend trailer!

In addition to my weekly Tuesday Tips, Wednesday Websites and Now and Then Thursday series, I want to now prove that I can add an descriptive adjective to yet another day of the week with my "Funny Fridays". This series will showcase the works of many of our comics, sketch comedians and improv undergrads and alumni.
To start things off, Matt Johnson (C'99, Mask and Wig, Phi Kappa Sigma), directed and stars in a very funny short called "Pepsi Challenge".Posted by Matt at 7:43 AM 0 comments

Matt Johnson's (C'99) independent pilot, What She's Having, which he produced and directed, is an official selection in the New York Television Festival and will be screening in Manhattan the weekend after Labor Day. The pilot actually scores a Penn alum hat-trick, with Sarit Catz (C'86, Bloomers) writing and executive producing, and Rich Hollman (C'99, Mask and Wig, AEPi) starring."Posted by Matt at 10:45 AM 0 comments

"As an outsider to the entertainment industry and to LA, DuelingTampons.com gave me an excellent jumping-off point to start my job search. It enabled me to learn about Penn alums in the entertainment industry and conduct necessary preliminary research. From there I was able to reach out to our incredible alumni network, schedule introductory meetings and phone calls, eventually land an interview, and finally secure an internship at a top Hollywood studio."
