Skoolie Web Series

Hey, all.

I am starting a web series revolving around the conversion process of my 2003 All American Blue Bird bus. It's going to cover the conversion process in its entirety. I have two questions for you.

One. If the web series was captivating enough in the first few episodes, would you continuously watch it?

Two. What is the best kind of structure to direct the show in? How many different segments should I put into an episode?

Watch mighty car mods recent double unicorn video series and roadkill for direction.

I personally like lots of action with brief intros. It takes far less time to do something than it takes to explain it, plus, if you cut it properly, it actually feels like visual art and not Just someone working on something.
The double unicorn build that is 11 episodes right now is the best example of this I have seen to date.

I would watch, you just need to show that you are human, and make mistakes..
Not everything's fits the first time.

I think a musical comedy format would be appropriate.

Trust me...since it involves skoolies, the comical part will take care of itself. You'll just have to crank up your iPod in the background.

Or...you could jump ahead and go directly to the Disney version...
