Joss Whedon’s “Dr. Horrible Sing Along Blog”
Joss Whedon, creator of Firefly, Buffy, Angel… is intending to make some noise on the Internet, as he says
” It is time for us to change the face of Show Business as we know it.”
Dr. Horrible, a three act musical made by him and some friends will be broadcasted for free on the internet from today till the 20th of this month an then will be available for purchase :
“We intend to make it available for download soon after it’s published. This would be for a nominal fee, which we’re hoping people will embrace instead of getting all piratey.”
Kinda of an interesting method of marketing, you get to “taste” it, and if you like it, you can have it. Very indie, and pretty much mimics the way everyone whose is not in the industry do to get their work some attention, (despite the taking away of air part).
So if you wanna watch it for free, check it out:
- Act 1 is already up;
- Act 2 “airs” tomorrow (17th July);
- Act 3 “airs” Saturday (19th July)
On the 20th it will be gone!
And let’s see how far this goes! Good luck Mr Whedon!
