Chuffed to see a Bored Stiff and Message in a Bottle is getting some love from the Funny or Die UK team, with Bored Stiff getting a lovely 'Best of the Week' honour.
The website is the UK branch of Will Ferrell's hugely successful approach at online comedy. Funny or Die UK is run by James Serafinowicz who is also brother of our own personal hero, Peter Serafinowicz. What's special about Funny or Die UK is that no one so far has put the amount of effort, professionalism and backing into a comedy video site that has as much an aim to promote emerging talent as it does to provide star comedians with a new media platform.

Are you... Bored Stiff?
May we introduce our sticky new born, 'Bored Stiff'. Here's what it has to say for itself:
Dr. Nick Deadly gets bored and takes time out to work on an extra-curricula project. Plus, there was queue for the toilet.
They said, 'It couldn't be done!'... well more, 'I don't want to do it!'. But one digital pen, 3 dogs lives and lawsuit later I had proved them wrong. If you're interested... Excuse me. Yep. Hi... here's the original scribbles I did on a tiny scrap of paper a few years ago. The words are me trying to give it a title.

Help us make some sketches!
We're looking to put together a team to start making some low-to-no budget comedy sketches. Our aim is to populate our successful YouTube partner page with material to build a strong presence as producers of quality comedy content.
What we need is a camera operator with their own equipment or access to equipment, someone that knows their way around lighting, and someone with knowledge of sound recording for film. All of the material will be written by us, a lot of which is already done and waiting to get made. We will also be looking for additional actors to fill supporting roles once a definitive list of sketches to film has been decided.
The main qualities a team-member should possess are a sense of humour, enthusiasm for making some funny films, and an easy-going approach to help everything move along smoothly. Being local to Birmingham will be a bonus and flexible availability at the weekend or week-nights will help.
Participation will be on a voluntary basis and hopefully for the enjoyment and experience of the process as we're learning like anyone else. However, concerns about personal expenses can be lodged with us on an individual basis and we'll see what we can do.
Of course, you will receive full credit for your work and the potential to join bigger projects as we progress. We will also provide our recommendation to others requiring similar services for team members.
Please leave your details or questions in the comments section of this post, or email us directly at admin@diceproductions.co.uk
Hope to hear from you soon,
Ian, Tom and Louis

Interview with Channel Frederator
Following our feature on Channel Frederator's Episode, 'Robbery! Notes! Goats! SWINE! #177', we did an interview with the big red robot himself. Here's the jist of it in their words:
Dice Productions' comedy trio (animator Louis Hudson, and writers Ian Ravenscroft and Tom Reid) talk about why they work funny, what’s next for them, and the hardest thing they’ve ever been bludgeoned with.
