THE MOVIE SHOW
Hot Hollywood takes from real Hollywood dummies! A parody of movie review shows done in the style of public access television and hosted by puppets, The Movie Show was a hilarious experiment by SYFY. For our campaign, it was important we mixed boisterous personalities of the hosts and the low-fi DIY sensibilities of the production to create something that matched the energy and wackiness of the series.

TRAILER
The show launched during quarantine 2020 when all big blockbusters were getting delayed. Since the show was supposed to be topical, our first trailer tackled the state of the industry head on. This spot was also cutdown into shorter versions for linear and social.

TEASES
We created a variety of completely custom scripted teases using the puppets to explain the show with gags that highlighted their unique personalities and showcased the "public access" nature of the show. Here are a selection of six.
