WILL BIGHAM, contestant filmmaker of ON THE LOT, took home the million dollar prize last week. Will, a Texas native, living in Glendale California, won it all in a tight race. His week to week consistency made him the odds on favorite going into last Tuesday nights finale. Adam Stein and Jason Epperson were very worthy opponents in th final 3. With very good films every week throughout the show, the way the finale was set up was in Will’s favor. By being judged on 2 of there past films of the season, Will had many quality films to pick from.
Adam was the first one voted off in the final show. He relied on his past films “Dough The Musical” and “Army Guy”, both were very clever and well done done short films. “Dough”, early on in the competition established Adam as a legit contender to win it all. It also showed his ability to work with music and became the musical contestant filmmaker. I worked with Adam on “Girl Trouble”, which was a great film, one of my favorites to work on this year. Adam week to week showed incredible imagination, and talent as a film director. Well Done Adam, your in the right business, great job!

Jason Epperson, went down to the wire with Will. He had the Kentucky vote, and the support of all rooting for an underdog. I always said this show was all about a guy like Epperson. An aspiring and working filmmaker in Kentucky, who might not have got a chance at this kind of exposure, and a shot to work at Dreamworks with Spielberg. Jason was the most well like contestant out of a group of outstanding personalities. Everyone’s best friend he grew in the competion and sure gave Will a run for the money. Early on his film “Get A Room” was misunderstood by the judges, but it set him apart and shot him to the top of the heap. He then delivered better and better films every week. He probably lost in the final, because his last 2 films weren’t as good as his earlier efforts. He let Will open up a lead on him going into the finale. I worked on his film “The Move” starring Jerry O’Connell, he was a joy to work with.
Good Luck Jason, I hope we can work together again sometime.

Will Bigham stood on stage after the big announcement, stunned and overwhelmed. The father filmmaker, dedicated his accomplishment to his wife and children, and fellow contestants, a classy winner. In the most touching moment of the show, Gary Marshall congratulated Will, and said from Father to Father, …”your a great filmmaker, but always remember, family is the most important thing” He then left the TV studio and was driven to Dreamworks and was greeted by his new boss Steven Spielberg.
Will’s films every week showed imagination, a great sense of humor, and directorial skill. From his early film “Glass Eye” to his last film “Yes Men”, he brought a quality that set him apart. He created a different world for his stories, for us to enjoy and experience every week. He never had a bad week, and is the fair and square rightful winner of the competition. A really great guy, I spoke to Will many times about many different things. He was always a pleasure to sit down and talk with. A real shining star of the competition.
Congratulations Will, Good Show!

Like I said before I never worked with Will, and I had a bit of a problem with that. I was never sure how we were assigned contestant directors week to week. I do know that it was not picked randomly, some kind of thought went into it. Somehow we were never assigned to do a movie with Will. Apparently it was going to happen with him on his last film, but we were never allowed to make it. The Producer’s choice not to shoot the last films for the finale, was a huge mistake, in my opinion. The show was poorly rated because the early episodes were not interesting enough. The Producer’s chose to wait until the 6th episode to really start the competition with the contestants making weekly films. By that time the big audience was not watching. It was botched again in the finale, with repeats of previous films, from the final 3. The final contestants all seemed disappointed by being short changed the last film. I had many questions about the plans for the airing schedule of the show, and the ever changing rules of the contest, from the beginning.
This all had nothing to do with Will and the rest of the contestants, they were all wonderful, talented people who put their all into it every week. It was a great experience for me, meeting all these great young film directors and working with some top professionals in the business. The Behind The Scenes production team, and the Shorts Production staff were all tops. I made some good friends and I’ll always remember my summer ON THE LOT, fondly.

The final four contestants of On The Lot, went into last Tuesday’s episode with a chance for the million dollar Dreamworks deal. The genre for the week was, America’s Choice Logline. Different loglines were selected, and then America voted on them. The winner was, ‘a man wakes up wearing a dress’. So each of the final four, Sam, Adam, Will and Jason all had to start their short films, with a man waking up wearing a dress. All the films turned out interesting.
My team worked with Sam, on his film “Dress for Success”. It seemed that Sam, particularly had a hard time wrapping his head around the logline. We worked hard on developing his script all week in prep. Taking the opinions of the actors, we brought the script a long way in a few days. The film itself turned to be pretty good. Christian Seabolt, the DP that works with my team, is awesome. He can make any genre of film look good, and always interesting. We modeled a lot of shots after the movies “Saw” and “Nine to Five”. The story was sort of a cross between the two. It was a very good looking film, but the story was never really there. It’s a decent film, but certainly not Sam’s best.
I’m sorry to report, all the hard work wasn’t enough to keep Sam in the game. Just as he thought in the prep period, the chips were stacked against him. Adam’s film, “Army Guy” was very good, the best of the night for my money. Will and Jason remain the favorites to win it all, but Adam has crept right up on them, and has made it really tight. That left no room for Sam, who had a great run. He came a long way in the competition, and really got to show what he could do. Every week Sam hung in there, proving he totally belonged in the final four. It was time for him to go, it’s a game and someone had to go.
So we’re left with Will, Jason, and Adam, in a really close race for the money. I’ve worked with Adam and Jason and got to know them pretty well. I never worked with Will, but we spoke many times and he’s a great guy. They are all great guys and all very deserving. We’ll see Tuesday night on FOX 8PM, who goes home with the gold.
The really disappointing part for everyone was that the Producers (Mr. Burnett), cut the shorts production schedule by one week. The contestants were supposed to make one more movie. The talk was that the final films would have been a little longer- 5 minutes, and the scripts were to be directors choice, and the genre was whatever they wanted. We were all looking forward to that last week, and the contestants deserved to make one more for the money. The rug was pulled out from all of us, in what seems like a cost saving decision. We would not make the last films for the finale. The final 3 contestants would each pick their 2 favorite films of the season and would be judged on them. Then America would vote on the winner based on the 2 films. Films that they were already judged on! I mean come on… Is this any way to decide the winner of a million dollar prize? The contestants were not happy about it either, they really wanted one more showcase. So the show continued to get mishandled by the people making the decisions. They decided to put reruns on for the finale, I call Bullsh*t!
…Totally DEEP!

Adrianna Costa, On The Lot

Watch ON THE LOT tonight, there are only 2 episodes left. The final four go into tonight to see witch 3 will make the final and go for the million. Remember, regardless of the bad ratings, and that not a whole lot of people watched the show, the prize is still substantial. The winner will be hired by Steven Spielberg and Dreamworks, for 2 years, at a salary of $250,000 a year. The job description is vague, but basically he will get an office at Dreamworks and report to Mr. Spielberg himself. Over the 2 years the winner will have the other $500,000 to spend on developing projects. So in a way Spielberg will start a small production company with the winner, and for 2 years develop material into film projects. For any aspiring or knocked around veteran filmmaker in the business, this is a dream come true. The winner will literally hit the Movie making jackpot.
The pity is that the public hasn’t really picked up on this. I find that most people who have watched the show this season are part of the entertainment industry in New York and L.A. The industry is certainly watching, and the reward is something that any Hollywood insider would be envious of. The show ultimately didn’t work nationally for many different reasons. I think the concept for a TV show revolving around filmmakers and behind the scenes of film production, is a good one and can work. ON THE LOT was botched early on and never recovered a big enough audience to see the most interesting episodes. What happened? The explanation for that, I’ll have to get into another time, once the show is done for good.
Right now our attention turns to the final four, Sam Friedlander, Adam Stein, Jason Epperson, and Will Bigham. Four very talented aspiring filmmakers.
Amazingly Sam, from New York, and Adam, from Miami, were classmates at USC film school, and had worked on student projects together there. To think out of 12,000 applicants to the show, 2 classmates end up in the final 4 is amazing. I’ve worked with both of them, and they are both students of the game. Very knowledgeable and always super prepared. It was a joy to work with both of them. I would work with either of them in the future, anytime. I’m sorry to say I think one of thsee 2 gets voted off tonight. Both creative talents, but someone has to go home and one of them will go to the final.
Jason, is a country boy from Kentucky, and the real, good guy of the competition. With his refreshing personality, his hard work and sense of humor, he became everyone on the show’s best friend. I feel like a show, and a competition like this is all about a guy like Epperson. Giving someone a chance, from a place not known for it’s filmmakers, and watching him become a Hollywood director. Whether he ends up winning this thing or not, he has grown the most, and he will make it as a director in the business, I’m sure of it. He’ll be in the final.
One of the biggest let downs for me personally working on the show, was that I never got to work for Will Bigham, from Texas living in Glendale, Ca. Looking at Will’s films throughout the season, he clearly had some of the best movies. I got to know Will, hanging out with contestants at their bungalow, he sincerely is one of the nicest people on the show. Meticulous in his planning, and with the unique tones and the worlds he created in each of his films, makes him the odds on favorite for the million. Sorry I didn’t get to work with Will, but I consider him a friend, and hope to work with him some time in future. He is going to have a long career as a director. He’ll be in the final, and will probably win.
It should be interesting, make sure and tune in, on FOX 8PM, tonight. The final episode will be on Wednesday night on FOX at 8PM.

It was another sad day for ON THE LOT, the really talented and good guy, Zach Lipovsky, was voted off the show. Zach’s short films, from the beginning of the show were outstanding, and he seemed to be a big favorite early on. His films wowed us, with their creativity and inventiveness. He has a great eye, and undoubtedly will be directing movies in the very near future. In my estimation, I feel like Zach was the best filmmaker on the show, he wasn’t the best story teller, and that’s why he’s gone. Another reason might be that the other 4 contestants had bigger fan bases that vote for them every week. Zach’s fan base was big early on, and dwindled as the contest wore on.
The first film I worked on for On The Lot, was with Zach, on his short “Die Hardly Working”. His knowledge of shots and visual effects were at a professional level. For me it was like working for an experienced director. I feel like we made the best movie of the season that week. I was very proud of it, and enjoyed working with Zach immensely.
It’s so hard now, because, like Gary Marshall said on the air last night, we’re like a family at this point. I bonded with Zach over the last couple of months, and I was pulling for him. I also feel close to the final 4, Sam, Will, Adam, and Jason. It’s ultimately a game show, however and someone has to go every week. I saw Zach right before he left, and he was pretty down. I told him he did a great job, to keep his chin up, and appreciate the experience he had.
And then there were four, I have worked with three of them, we never worked with Will. It’s really getting down to it, for a million dollar deal. One more will be voted off next week, and three will go to the final for the million. It was America’s Choice Logline Week. The Logline was, “…a man wakes up in a dress.” The remaining 4 had to make short films continuing the story from there. We worked with Sam Friedlander, on his film “Dress For Success”. This was our crew’s second time working with Sam, we did his action week film, “Key Witness”. I found in prepping for this film, that Sam had a problem wrapping his head around the logline. To a point where he was resisting it, and making it difficult. The first time we worked with him he was excited about it, and a very decisive director. This time most of the way through, it was the opposite. He really battled to make sense of his story, and to make it cool. He came around, and it came together in the end. I think we did end up making a cool little movie. It’s tough competition however, and the other 3 movies were very good. Sam could be on the hot seat next week.

Andrew Hunt was voted off On The Lot, last week, in Comedy Romance week. He was a really nice guy who has a bright future as a filmmaker. I didn’t get to work with him but what I observed was that he was a tireless worker, and covered all the bases in preparation for his films. His shorts were always good but not great, and he just ran out of time against the remaining talented contestants. I think Andy has a great commercial eye, I feel like he could jump into commercial directing right away. I believe Andy will make a living as a director, either commercially right away, or TV/ Film down the road a bit. We were all sorry to see him go, but the field has really tightened up. The remaining contestants are all talented, so it will come down to who has the best movies week to week. Andy’s superhero movie just wasn’t as good as the others last week.
The movie’s for ROAD week premiered, all the shorts films revolved around vehicles somehow. I worked with Jason Epperson on his film, “The Move”. Gary Ross was the guest judge and Penny Marshall sat in for Gary Marshall, who was out of town. The judges were pretty hard on Jason’s film, and were very critical of the story. The production value was solid and we achieved some really nice process trailer camera car shots. It is difficult in film production, to make driving shots interesting. The use of a process trailer, we load the picture vehicle onto a flat bed trailer that is towed by a camera car, allows us to move the camera around the vehicle while driving on the road, and also light the scene properly. It’s hard for the AD, because setting up multiple shots on the trailer is time consuming, and with everything having to be rigged portable different elements are bound to malfunction along the way. Also taking this big trailer out onto real world streets and in traffic is tricky, we had to work very closely with California Highway Patrol officers.
I am kind of sorry that the judges never mention the production value of the films. They will always dwell on how the story works for them and how the movies fit into the genre presented. They never recognize the film making, and the production value of the films are routinely overlooked. I wish the show was more about the film making and not the flashy studio show they put on every week.
We also worked with actor Jerry O’Connell, who was Jason’s prize for having the most votes last week. I loved working with Jason, he is my favorite person on the show. This contest is all about someone like Jason, giving a guy from Kentucky a shot at the big time. Jerry was cool to work with on this one, a real pro. The movie was only mediocre, a one joke story, but I feel like the acting, the production value and selection of shots was outstanding. Jason should be fine getting into the final 4 with this film.

So Kenny Luby and Mateen Kemet, were both voted off after Action Week, ON THE LOT. They were both good guys, I didn’t get a chance to work with either one of them, so I didn’t know them real well. I think both were a bit misunderstood in different ways.
Kenny was considered the rebel film maker of the show, and the heart throb for the ladies. That, and a couple of decent movies kept him in it, this long. He ultimately had talent but couldn’t apply it, and didn’t have the experience to trust the people trying to help him. Like I said a good guy, but wasn’t really always smart about how he went about things.
Mateen, also a great guy, I only got to speak to him a few times, but he was always pleasant. His films were well made, and solid efforts. I think that he went too far constantly trying to get messages across in his films. Beating people over the head with his messages every week, turned people off after a while.
They both did a great job, and came a long way on the show, but both were due to go. The top six seems to be right group of filmmakers to be left, Will, Zach, Jason, Adam, Sam, and Andy. I would have liked to see Hilary in the top six, but all of these guys have done really well.

“Girl Trouble”, the film I worked on with Adam Stein premiered for Comedy Romance Week, and was well received. The audience loved it and the judges liked it a lot. I think Adam made a great and very funny film, about people who know each other well and see things differently sometimes. It was a job well done by Adam, and our crew, he was a pleasure to work with. I would work with him again any time. He really pulled off a wacky script, including shots recreated from the films, “American Beauty” and “The Graduate”. It should certainly be strong enough to get him by for another week. Only one contestant goes next week. I’ll be working with Jason Epperson on his film “The Move”, this week.

“Key Witness” I worked on with Sam during action week. It was my favorite movie to work on this season. Check out the behind the scenes, I’m the guy who thanks everybody at the end.

A sad day on Tuesday, Hilary Graham was voted off of, Mark Burnett filmmaker reality show, ON THE LOT. I worked with Hilary on her short film, “The Legend of Donkey Tail Willie”. She was a joy to work with, and what this show is all about. Giving a talented person a chance to show what they could do, and taking the experience and growing as an artist. Hilary is a film director, no doubt. The reason she is gone, was that two people had to go, and she was up against some strong competition. Woman directors have not done well on the show, and the last two are now gone. Shalini Kantayya, and Hilary, both came up short in the voting last week. So now it’s eight men, and two more will go next week.
It was Action Week, and I worked on Sam Friedlander’s film “Key Witness”. Sam was great, well prepared and really knew his stuff. Sam wrote a great action movie, and delivered exactly what the genre called for. A film filled with stunts and exciting moments, with a good story. I think it was the best pure action movie of the night. I wish Sam all the best in the voting for next next week. Check it out next Tuesday on FOX, 8PM.
This week team my team is working with Adam Stein and his comedy/ romance film, “Girl Trouble”.

So if you watched On The Lot, last Monday night, you saw that Shira-Lee Shalit, was voted off, for horror week. I worked on her film, “Open House”. Although I thought we did a good job, I wasn’t surprised by the outcome of the voting. First of all Shira-Lee was one woman director against 5 male directors for horror week. Woman directors have not done well on this show, and it looks like it will continue that way. The real fact is, however, Shira-Lee’s film wasn’t as good as the rest last week. I thought Mateen Kemet, might have had a chance to get voted off, based on the fact that his film really wasn’t a horror movie. The message of his short was that racism in society is a universal horror. Not horror in the traditional sense, so there is a good argument that Mateen should have gone home. Even with that, his movie was well done and pretty good. The basis of Shira-Lee’s problem was with her story. From the moment I read it, I told her there was no conflict. It was a horror movie without conflict, maybe a little creepy, but not horrifying. I even suggested that she add some cool visual effects to it, maybe making the ghost character transparent, or having the couple have to pass through her to get out of the house. Something, it needed something, and I wasn’t the only one to tell her that, in plenty of time to fix it. She decided to keep it simple, and to rely on her ability to direct the actors, and thought the performances would set it apart. The acting was good, but ultimately could not make up for lack of story. So Shira- Lee went home. Two woman contestants are left, Hilary Graham and Shalini Kantayya, and two contestants will get voted off tomorrow night.
I worked on Hilary’s short film, “The Legend of Donkey Tail Willie”. I went into it a little skeptical. Hilary had become known as one of the better writers of the group, but I wasn’t sure about her film making ability, and had heard that she might not take to suggestions very well. What I found was that Hilary was an absolute pleasure to work with. Along with her creative writing, she understands the film making process, and was very collaborative with myself and DP Christian Seabolt. The sign of a good director is knowing when to listen to us, and knowing when to follow your gut, Hilary did that well. Hilary also is a good person and someone I really felt like I wanted to help, and was eager to work with. I think the film we made was very good, and I hope after all this is over some day I can work with Hilary in the professional world. No matter what happens tomorrow night, Hilary Graham can direct, and she should continue to pursue it, win or lose in this contest. I wish her all the best… Good Luck, Hilary!
This week is Action Week, and my team worked on Sam Friedlander’s movie, “Key Witness”. A funny thing about Sam is that we are from the same hometown back East, Mount Vernon New York. A small town in between the Bronx and Yonkers. Although a small town many artists come from there, including actor Denzel Washington. So I’m pulling for my home town boy this week.
“Key Witness”, is a story of a bounty hunter, and is filled with all kinds of stunts and action elements. It was real hard work to pull it all off within the production rules of the game. We got all the shots that Sam wanted and even a few more. I think he’s going to have a great action movie. Check out “Key Witness”, Tuesday night 8PM on FOX.

I’ve been real busy working on the Steven Spielberg / Mark Burnett reality TV show, On The Lot. The second short film I worked on as a 1st AD/ Consultant, to the contestants, aired last Tuesday. It was horror week, and I worked with contestant Shira-Lee Shalit, on her short “Open House”. The first week I worked with Zach Lipovsky on his film, “Die Hardly Working”, it came out great, and the judges and America agreed. I was very happy in the office all week, knowing my man did really well. I also got some good airtime on TV with Zach, which was nice. It was David May who got voted off, he’s a great guy, and promising filmmaker, but clearly had the worst film of comedy week.
My experience on Horror Week was a little different, I like Shira-Lee a lot, and I think we made a very good film. She is a different kind of director then Zach. He was into the images telling the story, Shira-Lee is a actors director, her focus was mostly on performance. It seemed like Zach was more prepared in the sense of knowing all the shots he needed to make a great film. I felt like Shira-Lee’s movie was missing a film making hook to make the movie more interesting. I told her that a cool visual effect might have been a good addition, but she wanted to rely on the strength of her direction of the actors. I had a problem with Shira-Lee’s script from the first time I read it, I’m afraid it might not be a very horrifying horror movie. The judges did kind of agree, although they thought it was well done, they didn’t feel it was among the best of the night. Shira-Lee was fun to work with, and I wish her all the best. The guest judge was Eli Roth, director of Hostel and Hostel II.
The show is on Monday 8PM, FOX, this week, because the MLB All Star Game is on Tuesday night. Next week it will return back to its regular time slot Tuesday 9PM. So tune in tonight and see how Shira-Lee did in the voting, another aspiring filmmaker will be voted off. Also check out all the films from last week, I worked with Hilary Graham on her film, “The Legend of Donkey-Tail Willie”.

I Finished working on my first film directed by one of the contestants on the Mark Burnett filmmaker reality show, On The Lot. I worked with Zach, on his comedy short film, “Die Hardly Working”. It was a great way to start the show for me, Zach is probably the best director in the group. He was extremely well prepared, more so than most professional directors that I work with. He’s a good kid from Vancouver, Canada, who I feel really gets it. Aside from knowing exactly what he wanted, he knew enough to trust the “Hollywood Professionals”, who were there to help him. He had the vision and he let us do our jobs, that is a sign of a very confident, good director. I feel that Zach Lipovsky could start directing professionally next week. He has a bright future as a filmmaker and is probably the favorite to win the big prize. A 1 million dollar development deal with Steven Spielberg’s production company Dreamworks.
We have to wait until next week to see the results, but I think we had the best film last week. I don’t think Zach has to worry. I have moved on this week, and I’m working with a different promising director, on another short film. Watch next Tuesday 8PM on FOX, to see how Zach did in the voting, and see the next series of films we’re making this week. The episode last week was the best of the show’s season, by far. It’s only going to get better as it gets narrowed down to the top filmmakers. You’ll see more behind the scenes of the Hollywood Professionals, as they make these films every week. I, myself got plenty of airtime Tuesday night, helping Zach choreograph a sword fight. See you, ON THE LOT. Click Here to see Zach’s film. You can see the entire episode at, http://www.thelot.com/
