Ever wanted to find out what it takes to write, cast, shoot, edit, and distribute a web series? Well so did we, so we've decided to do it. Follow along with us as we create the pilot episode for Jenn2.0, a show about a young social media consultant attempting to build her brand and define herself in the ultimate connectivity of the Web 2.0 world.
Recently the Producers of Jenn2.0 were approached by Shonell Bacon of Sister Divas Magazine in regards to our superstar Alexis Grenier and the role she represents for woman of today. Sister Divas is a quarterly magazine dedicated to showcasing women and womanly issues on topics such as health, beauty, entertainment, careers, and relationships.
Check out the interview here. You just might be surprised what you’ll learn. Like Ali’s favorite song… you’d never guess.
Comments Press play, then maximize the show for the best experience.

Contemplating Writer
When I write, I try to envision everything around the lines: how the characters move, the setting and maybe even the music. Most importantly, the words have to be true to the character and help move the story along. That’s what you ultimately need to see and, usually, that’s done through some form of conflict. However, I didn’t envision conflict on the set around the script. Read More
Alexis
Well, we are only a few days away from the shoot this weekend and I am totally psyched! Our table read tomorrow night will no doubt be very useful and a fun way to get to know each other and test our natural chemistry with one another. Everything seems to be moving right along. I’m still not sure which outfits have been chosen for me, but I have had fun creating different choices this week! I worked on the set of “The Ex-List” today at Stu Segall and just thought….what fun it will be to start moving when the director calls “action” instead of “background”! : )
I did, however bring my script to the set today….everyone was interested to know more about the show.

Fresh Boutique
The crew decided to send Alexis out with the EP’s wife, Stephanie, to pick out a couple of nice pieces for her to wear in the pilot. We decide to check out Erik Kramer’s boutique on Garnet Ave. in Pacific Beach called Fresh.
Erik’s been running various apparel stores in the area for over 15 years and has a talent for keeping things hip and affordable. We found a couple of things that seemed right for the character, but the real success was really learning more about Alexis and just how much she really is Jenn2.0.
Dressing Room
We still need to go through wardrobe with the other cast members. It’s an often overlooked aspect of creating a show. But it’s something that, if done wrong, will ruin a scene if not your whole episode.
