What if a boring PSA went completely off the rails?
It was a question I sought to answer. So, in lockdown of 2020 I wrote and self-produced (almost entirely remotely) “Fill It Out: A Census PSA”, the first of three parody PSAs. Not Your Average PSAs features a spokeswoman with the seemingly impossible task of educating the community, despite being constantly thwarted by unruly participants with ulterior motives.
Episodes have been featured in Vulture, Digg, and Big Spaceship's Internet Brunch and feature performances by UCB alum Iliana Inocencio (The Iliza Shlesinger Sketch Show), Joel Perez (Hazbin Hotel) and Michael Cruz Kayne (The Late Show with Stephen Colbert), among others.
My Role
I created the series. I write, direct, DP, and edit.

You should be more popular. I'm totally simping for you! And what a lovely voice! Like you're grasping for air (hope you hadn't had COVID).
