Project Notes

The I Dream of Sleep Melons project will start out as a series of scenes that also help launch the Sleep Melons product. The Sleep Melons company will be producing episodes of this series, which will serve to both promote the Sleep Melon line of products, as well as provide for great episodic comedy. Our producers (Erick Crespo, Tim Schaaf) have a history of working with Lifetime, Netflix, Amazon and FYI TV - the series will launch first on the Sleep Melons distribution channels, with transition to episodic television being pitched after. For this project - we will be filming three test scenes of the series over the course of one day - and from there, our goal is to use the same cast as we transition to episodic television. The three scenes will be seen on the Sleep Melons website, as we transition into episodic television. For actors and actresses looking for the opportunity to prove they can act in narrative comedy, this is a great opportunity to display such skills. Comedians and models who are looking to display their narrative comedic skills are very encouraged to apply. Grizz Ali has won multiple indie film awards for his film directing and writing, including his previous feature film, Confessions of a Womanizer (starring Gary Busey, C Thomas Howell etc). Production quality on these scenes will be optimal and professional.
