Checking in, relaunching

As you can see, I haven't touched the blog or put up a new video in well over a month. Here's the deal and here's what's going to be happening down the line:

I grauated from college a month ago and moved to the greater Cincinnati area two weeks ago. This has some significant implications for my sketch comedy work because all of the actors that I worked with were college friends, and they're all still going to school, so I'm all alone here. When I moved away from Muncie I more or less killed Ron Mexico Productions in its current form because while we appear to be a full-fledged sketch comedy troupe, the truth is that I, Ron Mexico, have done close to 100% of the writing and a full 100% of the editing and post production work. (Not trying to be arrogant, that's just the fact of the matter)

So now I'm living in a delightful little northern Kentucky county twenty minutes away from downtown Cincinnati and looking for new comedic horizons. The main project that I'm working on is getting a weekly half hour comedy show up and running on the local public access station. Since I just moved here I don't know anybody besides my live-in girlfriend, so I'm looking for people to work with who would be interested. If this project ever comes to fruition you can expect to see episodes of the public access show posted to Youtube.

The TV station only allows people who have taken their orientation, field production, and non-linear editing classes be involved with making a show, so it'll be a matter of months before I can get some guys together for a show and get them cleared to work with the equipment because the fucking classes are only offered once a month. The ultimate goal here is to make a show and work on it until it gets good and we develop some sort of voice and then pitch it to all of the major networks and see if anyone's interested.

While that plan slowly takes form, I'm spending a lot of time sitting around, playing Zelda, and waiting to hear back on the 22 job applications I've sent out. Attention to the people reading this who haven't graduated from college yet: You want to hear something encouraging? I interviewed for a shitty, boring job at a TV station that pays $24,000 a year, and the guy doing the interview told me that 30 FUCKING PEOPLE applied for the job. That's how much the economy sucks right now. Enjoy entering the job market, bitches!

So while the job and TV show stuff are taking form, I'm currently working on writing a feature-length screenplay based on my college experience, and in addition I plan to start blogging much more actively. From this point on this blog will be transformed to be much less news updates on Ron Mexico Productions and commentary on new sketches and much more a pure comedy blog. Expect 3 to 5 weekly updates of hilarious bitching about movies, TV, video games, football, my sex life, people on internet forums that I'm fighting with, job hunting, the regularity of my shits, and whatever the fuck else I'm in the mood to talk about.

But that's enough of that. If you wanted me to talk about my career instead of hearing me actually tell jokes you'd be Dane Cook fans. I officially go back to trying to be funny tomorrow.
