Pelican Gusto

// July 17th, 2008 // General

A few of my old school mates, Rowan Jones, Joel Byrnes and Adam Bovino have been attempting to break into the film industry ever since I can remember. Finally, after many many Cigars and bottles of Scotch talking about it, I have finally seen some of their work.

The trio have created a sketch called “Run For Your Life”, which is about a modern day reality game show, which due to laziness on Rowan’s part, Joel being abducted by The People’s Liberation Army, and Adam loosing his fingers in a poker tournament, has taken a few months to complete.

After knowing Joel for nearly 20 years, Rowan and Adam for most of the new millennium, and after hearing hundreds of stories and idea’s, it is great to finally see that they actually do have some talent. Hopefully this will be the first of many ideas actually put to film, and since the Aussie version of Big Brother has been axed, I am sure Channel 10 can find a timeslot for them – as long as it doesn’t mean the Formula One coverage is delayed anymore than it already is.

They have created a blog “Pelican Gusto”, where they will feature “some filler material, like serialised comedy stories, webcomics, podcasts, and a special live music video feature,” and according to Rowan the blog will be updated frequently with new content – so be sure to check it out.
