Juvenile Minds Original : Curt and Drew think Jason has a secret he needs to get off his chest. They both concoct a plan to help him come out and admit his inner most desires.

We would like to send out a special congratulations to the local filmmakers who gathered together for the recent Secret City Film Festival. Our comedy group Juvenile Minds hosted an after party following the Friday showing of “That Evening Sun” which was a blast. Thanks to everyone who showed up and helped us eat Sweet P’s BBQ, Barley’s Taproom Black Bean Hummus and lots of other food as well as free beer.

“Roger Dodger”, a submission for the Secret City 7-day Shoot Out was chosen the winner of BEST PICTURE & AUDIENCE AWARD. Congrats to the cast and crew of “Roger Dodger” as well as special notice to Curt Willis, the actor and writer of the piece.

It’s almost that time in Oak Ridge, TN again. The Secret City Film Fest is set to start this weekend. Filmmakers will gather, movies will be shown, viewers will “ooh and ahhh” in the appropriate places (usually), and a layer of B.S. will cover the floors as filmmakers and film fans mingle and discuss their projects, both past and future. It’s one of the funnest events in all of East Tennessee, and you know Dave and Thomas are going to be there.

In fact, Dave and Thomas enjoy the festival so much, this year they are sponsoring a reception with their buddies, the Juvenile Minds. This quasi-prestigious event will follow a special screening of the award winning, East Tennessee produced film, That Evening Sun, on Friday the 9th. So feel free to join Dave and Thomas for barbecue and beer at the Secret City Film Fest and if you don’t care for D&T check out the other events at the festival. There are many films, panels, workshops and events at the festival that are worth checking out. For more information on the Secret City Film Festival check out their website.

We are busy shooting a bunch new comedy videos for the Juvenile Minds and while providing some foley work for our sound FX department, Jason Benjamin incorporates Curt into the mix.

We’re happy to say our group of slightly delusional friends are on work release from the sanitarium to help us film the latest Juvenile Minds comedy short, “The Hypnotist.” This time around we have a married couple seeking counseling from a psychiatrist who suggests using Hypnotherapy to help with their problems. The Doctor may need to go back to school to learn how to do it right….

Juvenile Minds The Hypnotist Knoxville Sketch Comedy

What do members of the G.I. Joe team and Cobra do during their downtime? They are just normal people going through the routines of daily life and live rather ordinary lives.

Cobra Commander, armed with voice box and oxygen tank, teaches kids about the dangers of spray painting.

Juvenile Minds presents an original sketch parodying the classic G.I. Joe PSAs. In this PSA, an ailing Cobra Commander straps on the oxygen tank, grabs the voice box, and checks himself out of hospice to address the dangerous lure of graffiti.

Starring the esteemed Cutis Willis as the failing Cobra Commander.
Portraying the hapless kids will be:
Drew Hepler and Jason Benjamin

Don’t forget to check out the G.I. Joe PSA Dumpster Diving from Juvenile Minds.

“Thanks, Mister. Now I know.”

“And knowing is half the battle.”

The classic G.I. Joe PSA’s have been a staple of parody for a generation of cartoon freaks like us. Now the Juvenile Minds comedy group takes at the classic PSA’s with a live action parody bit.

Now let’s take a look at an updated G.I. Joe PSA featuring the hazards of dumpster diving…

Dave and Thomas just wanted to give a warm thank you to everyone that helped the Juvenile Minds comedy group create their new GI Joe PSA’s.

These parody bits are centered around the great “Knowing is half the battle” PSA’s that evolved from the GI Joe cartoons in the eighties.  Now, with the movie coming out this weekend, the PSA’s are up for parody.  The movie is probably up for a lot of parody but that’s for another post.
