doin' great Web Series
The 1996 class of Atholle Academy was destined for supernatural heights. They were the ones written about only in myths: Stacey, the pop superstar; Bob, the Star Quarterback; Karl, the Mensa Genius; and Chippah, the Financial Whiz Kid. As they approach their 20th reunion it's clear they are not at their heights in their lives, but at their depths. As each one tries to regain their former glory, constant bad decisions impede their progress.

Best Web Series
Jake has written and directed many short films, and this is his first web series co-written with actor Lowell Byers. Jake has been a professional editor for the last 15 years working on high profile projects like The Colbert Report and Chopped.
I've always been obsessed to a fault comparing my life to my peers. That was one of the main inspirations behind this project. And anything that makes me laugh is always a bonus.
