Ok, constructive criticism: this show didn’t really offer me any worthwhile information, or unique insight.. or entertainment. But more then all that, the room echo was driving me crazy! Get this kid a lapel mic and some clamp lights. Also, droppin’ F-bombs doesn’t add anything.
I had high hopes for this show with the cool promo photos, but I think it needs some work.
Not complete torture, but for the 190's episode, I'd expect some progress in quality. For example... Why not make a simple set? Paint a wall and include a chroma green/blue square to impose the images/vid clips, etc. rather than using a PIP. This would look better because your hands wouldn't keep disappearing. Also, do some audio work! it's pretty bad. I can hear you, which is great... but the echo is hell. And finally... the editing is UBER choppy, and annoying. Aside from that, I love the cynical aspect of it.
If you don't want to chroma key, try zooming out so you don't fill the frame, allowing you to PIP without affecting you.
Or use a cut away in place of PIP. I second the feel and cynicism of the show but also agree that if you choose to continue to use jump cuts at least cross fade the audio to get rid of the pops.
And since its very apparent that you drew inspiration from Talk Soup (which is cool with me) check out some eps of that to see how they use cut aways and such.
Also, a third choice would be to use the red behind to key out and place posters and such behind you. You would just need to take two nice steps forward to eliminate the shadow.
Kudos on becoming an Indy Moguler

I don't like to speak bad about people who are trying, but BYT & Movie Buzz are both pretty awful. At least BYT had better audio and editing; I just couldn't stand the host's stand ups. This Movie Buzz guy is awful all the way around. Sorry, hope you pick up something better for movie news.
Indy Mogul, you have picked up a gem right here! Hope Movie Buzz takes off! I hope that this doesn't take the place of BTT however, because I love BTT, and Grace.
