Introducing: The Cherryflava Show
After wanting to shoot some video content for Cherryflava for some time now, please allow us to introduce you to the brand-new, Cherryflava Show.
This is the pilot episode [so it's very loose - and is really just meant as a testa] of The Cherryflava Show, shot at the infamous Mzoli's Butchery in Gugulethu, Cape Town.
We've set up a dedicated page for this and future episodes over here - or find them filed under 'the cherryflava show' on the top menu bar.






I was intending for this comment to appear on YouTube but their comments are limited to 500 characters (seriously, in this day!), so here goes:
Ok so basically, great pilot guys, breaking new ground, tons of potential, very wicked! Well chosen backing track, & editing style is great. Intro smacks of etv's "Behind the Name", same crew?
If I can give some constructive criticism however, please refrain from using the terms "as you can see" (I'm watching, aren't I?) and "basically" (think I stopped counting at 3) ever again. ;)
And maybe share more specifics about the place, where exactly in Guguletu, not that I go there ever but an address would be a start?
Jon, you're a funny guy on video.. I laughed out loud at the ending. Keep it up! Looking forward to the next one.

I loved the cinematics and the whole vibe guys. Well made.
I agree with coda, mostly about the specifics, like the where Mzoli's is, but since you're not likely to give directions on the show, you might want to have show notes that include some of the extra stuff, like directions, background info, transcript, summary, etc.
I'd definitely like to check out future episodes.

Great video dude - for a pilot its the way forward. Next one round will be basically awesome!!! Keep up the great work gents.

Respect!
I agree on the details; but if episodes are going to be mostly web-based, it doesn't really matter, because you can just point people to the/a site "for further info". Possibly pointing this out specifically might be an idea.
