The Shelf Life – The Series IndieGoGo Campaign to raise $30k in 30 days ended on Friday August 17th. They exceeded their goal and raised $34,579. As a special thank you to everyone that donated they have posted a behind-the-scenes group photo from Aaron’s episode (“OH CANADA”).

 

THANK YOU FOR HELPING US REACH $34,579

Thank you all for your extremely generous donations, for your help sharing, and for your general enjoyment, comments, and interest in our twisted little show. It is especially inspiring to see people step up and pay for something they like in a world where torrenting is easy and YouTube is free. Talk is cheap. Thanks for your respect.

As a special thank you from us to you, here is a group shot from behind-the-scenes on the Aaron Douglas episode with the cast and many members of the crew (including, clockwise from L) Juan Carlos Bagnell – sound, Steven Calcote – director, Mark Legaspi – cinematographer, Lillian Diaz-Przybyl – script supervisor, and super rockin’ support team-cheerleader Jenn!)

And the same group goofing off as we do MOST of the time on set! :) We promise we’ll be really serious about goofing off from here on out!

Also, huge thanks to all who played the Shelf Life IndieGoGo GAME… we loved all the guesses and participation! Our winner is Natalie F. who guessed $34,600 which was just $21 over the final amount! Way to go! We will ship your Shelf-y Swag out ASAP!

Much appreciation, gratitude, thanks and serious Shelf Love to each and every viewer, tweeter, re-tweeter, facebooker, donator (yeah, we know it is donors, but donators sounds more “sci-fi”) (actually, “donerator” sounds even better), supporter, and sideline cheerleader. We really do appreciate each and every one of you and your contributions to our show!

With only 4 days left to go the Shelf Life – The Series IndieGoGo Campaign is only $206 away from reaching their goal of raising $30,000. How can you not support a webseries that has Aaron talking with a lizard? Hang on, I think that’s supposed to be a snake. Snakes don’t have arms. Ahhh who cares, go donate. PLEASE.

Those of us that donated to the Shelf Life – The Series IndieGoGo Campaign in the first 48 hours it went live, were emailed a link earlier today to watch the “exclusive early access to the Aaron Douglas SHELF LIFE episode”. Aaron is HILARIOUS in this episode!!!. I can’t wait for everyone to see it (apparently it will be released online mid to late September). Someone really needs to employ this man on a comedy show.

Here’s another video of Aaron helping to promote the SHELF LIFE IndieGoGo campaign to raise $30K in 30 days so they make another season.

I wonder if this means we’ll see Aaron in a cameo in one of the remaining episodes of Season 3 of SHELF LIFE the Series or maybe Season 4 (???).

Interview pt. 1: Shelf Life’s Tara Platt & Yuri Lowenthal

You’ve announced Aaron Douglas and Phil Morris as guests; can you talk a bit about who they’ll be playing?

Yuri: Phil Morris- I don’t want to give too much away on either side but Phil is basically playing our big bad in the season finale.

Tara: He was so much fun to work with.

Yuri: Such a giving guy. And… the only problem we had with Aaron was that he was so fucking funny that ya know, we just kept laughing the entire time we were shooting. How can we describe Aaron’s character?

Tara: I don t want to give anything away! Um… Let’s just say he’s representative of where he’s from.

Yuri: Let’s just say we’ll probably either pull a huge Canadian audience during his episode or we’ll lose all of them. We’re equal opportunity offenders.

Tara: Yes!

 

Tara Platt and Yuri Lowenthal Talk About Their SHELF LIFE Web Series

The previous seasons of Shelf Life have featured the four of you, the four regulars, but you’ve had a couple of different guest stars come in here and there. I know you have some guest stars coming up in the next season. Would you guys like to talk about them and what we can expect from them?

Tara: Sure, we’re really excited. This season, we actually have Phil Morris, who many people from his work on Smallville as Martian Manhunter and Seinfeld as Jackie Chiles, as well as his work in Black Dynamite and a number of other movies. He’s coming on and he’s sort of the big bad guy this season. He’s in a two-episode arc at the end of the season which we’re really, really excited about. He’s just such a joy and a delight to work with. He’s a consummate professional and amazing. We really all had a great time working with him.

Yuri: Yeah and the other one we’re excited about is Aaron Douglas, who played Chief Tyrol in Battlestar Galactica. Who, also, we’re huge fans of and it was such a joy to work with him. It’s a wonder we got anything done.

Tara: We were laughing so hard.

Yuri: Yeah, we spent most of the time laughing. But we’re excited to bring in more guests as we go, because I think that the way the show is going, we keep opening up the world bigger and bigger, it’s inevitable that other people will creep in.
