Thank you for your readership, CUvians and Agents!<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n IMAGERY DU C-U | Picturing Our Scene on the Screen<\/strong><\/p>\n Activity is exploding over at Camp Nostalgic Studios<\/strong>, \u201cThe Home of Independent Storytelling,\u201d and what better time is there to feature their upcoming online releases than Independence Day<\/strong> weekend? Dave Rediger, Gela Rediger<\/strong>, and Alex Duquette<\/strong> of CNS go through it all in this update video<\/a><\/span> shared both to YouTube<\/strong> as well as their official website, which organizes everything in bright and bold d\u00e9cor<\/a><\/span> if you\u2019d prefer the non-sterile approach. Over the next several weeks beginning this Saturday, July 6<\/strong>, they will debut new episodes of the skit program \u201cSaturday Morning,\u201d which features Duquette and Dave Rediger as hosts and a revolving cast in comedy segments (such as Randy Phillips<\/strong> and Em Garner<\/strong>, below, in a purported preview for \u201cChesapeake Valley: Ranger Wives\u201d in the best\/worst tradition of reality shows) and commercial spoofs, to be followed later in the day with \u201cLate Night Urge,\u201d a secretive affair that will star Chicago<\/strong> comedienne Ariel Julie<\/strong> (captured candidly, with bubbly). Also coming soon or recently added are new episodes of the animated \u201cStupie & Fran-Fran,\u201d on-location video of stand-up comedy in \u201cFunny Ass Road Show\u201d (including local talent, like George Cruickshank<\/strong>), and one-off specials such as \u201cPat\u2019s Spooky Night,\u201d filled to the gills with an all-star CNS roster. An inevitable pairing occurs this season as Camp Nostalgic welcomes Andy<\/strong> and Zoe Due<\/strong> from Rubber Chicken Films<\/strong> into the fold; you\u2019ll see them below in character on \u201cSaturday Morning\u201d and can watch the brand-new Episode 25 of \u201cThe Andy Due Show,\u201d which is a cacophony of Anglo and Yankee wartime humor for the occasion, right here<\/a><\/span>.
