Sketch comedy series

Hi there! I am a writer and I have written a bunch of sketches and was hoping to find a collaborator (or collaborators) on bringing my sketches to life. Experience with the technical side of filmmaking would be nice but rookies are welcome as well! Looking for people who know how to use a camera (having one already would be nice, but not a requirement) , have some knowledge on sound/lighting, editing, post production. For reference see “I think you should leave with Tim Robinson” on Netflix for the kind of tone I’m looking to recreate. 1-3 minutes sketches, with a very low budget in mind of course. Let me know and thanks!

Why is the AC still on

It's too cold for me. Where can I study at UofW where it won't be freezing? I'm wearing a jacket and a thick sweater and I'm still frozen

blocking hallways!

please please please if you are waiting to get into your classroom be mindful of how much hallway space you’re taking up. some people stand in the middle of the hallway when there’s clearly room along the walls and i’ve not been able to get through due to it multiple times it’s kindof ridiculous. anyone else get annoyed by this?

also curious what people think about noise courtesy at the green tables on the fourth floor. there were plenty of open tables next to me and a group sat down at the nearest one beside me and began talking really loud and then people kept coming and joining them and they were kinda just standing too close while i was trying to do schoolwork. because it’s not a quiet zone, and i don’t think it’s fair for me to be upset over it, i just left and went somewhere quieter. but i’m wondering if other people have these issues in that area with people being just kinda inconsiderate. again it’s not a quiet zone, i don’t expect much.

idk. maybe unpopular opinion or im just feeling hateful today.

Where and for how long?

Let’s start a new post type where we share a pic of gross things on campus and others guess where it is and how long it’s been there! Can we have a flair added for this?

I’ll go first!

Where and how long??

This is our community. Downtown, a man was shot in the temple, by a child with a BB gun. He died.

Edit: hedidn't die. My error. Cant edit title.

I'm sharing this because I'm constantly in awe of the people here who say downtown is safe. Being shot and killed by a child, near our school, isn't safe.

The area our school is in has the hishest rate of violent crime in the city. It's increased dramatically over the last three years.

When I comment about this people downvote it. You may not like it, but that's reality. It sucks and pretending it isn't happening doesn't help. Especially when students in this group tell people considering moving to a new country to come to our school. The amount of energy, time, money and respurces required to chose a new school in a new country, and then get there, are immense.

Just because you don't get stabbed or attacked, just because your are fine, doesn't mean it's ok. We get used to our surroundings. This is NOT NORMAL for Canadian cities. You may be ok with it, but that doesn't mean it's ok, or safe compared to other Canadian cities.

Please read the comments in the linked post.

Is this a good schedule?

My main concern with this schedule is the timings LOL, this is the best I could do, but after hearing the news about the UoM attacks and stuff I feel weird having a really late class (sociology). Can I still drop it for another elective (suggestions please?) or do I just stick with it? (a super scaredy-cat international coming for the first time haha)

Wifi problems

I swear to god this keeps happening to me every year yet I still don't know the solution to fix it. My device won't let me join eduoram and whenever I try to log into UW-GUEST I always get authentication failed. I've been using the same email and password since my first year but all of a sudden I can't log in now??? I can't even prep for a midterm I have in an hour. Someone's out there praying for my downfall. Is anyone else having the same problem? Or better yet, can anyone help me?

Opinion question

So I’m a first year student starting in winter and I’ll be taking 12 credit hours. This is spread over three separate classes, has anyone else found this difficult or is it typically manageable? The classes I’m taking are conflict resolution, archeology of North America (it’s an Anthro course), and human environmental interactions.

Thanks so much for any input.

Phones going off during Midterm

Idk who the hell they were, but I was writing the MATH-1201 midterm and 4-5 different phones went off. I got placed in the front of the class so I didn’t see what happened but what are you guys thinking?! Turn them off, it was really annoying.

Does anyone else have any phones going off during an exam stories?

DUO multi factor identification for nexus questions and an uplink rant.

Today the UW sent out notifications of the upcoming requirement for MFA. Don't be fooled by the acronym, I'm just lazy and abbreviating. I've used it before at another school and was able to delete the app and have it text me instead. Anyone know if that will be an option? Or if there's an alternative to have a phone on you every time you log in?

And yes, I caught figure this out if I read though the info in the link but tech talk like this leaves me wanting to give up using tech and life altogether.

Anyone understand what this poop on the link it telling me to do?

I wish they made a video explaining this. We get soooo many emails to read and this is a bit complex for some of us.

And yes, I know I can go to uplink for answers. But half the time I do the staff scoff and roll their eyes. The last time I was there the guy rubbed his face and sighed, I apologized that I didn't understand it and said I could ask someone else. He said no, something was in his eye. Lol. Yeah, and was it there all the times you were rolling them, lol. Ok rant over.

If anyone knows tech support on campus who are over 30 or actually care about how they treat the humans they're paid to help, that would also be great. Or, if you're the manager of those staff - maybe you wanna know about this. I won't go there again because of this. It's kind of humiliating going somewhere whete their supposed to help you but instead they speak to you like they think you're a moron and treat you like poop.

I lack in my tech knowledge. Yup. That's why I'm here. Don't do this job if you don't wanna help people like that. Ok, sorry, I lied earlier. Rant officially over now.

Partial refund on tuition fees

Those who completed a fee appeal, and were granted either partial or full (extremely unlikely I know) refund of tuition for dropping after the add drop period, how did you go about this? I was at work one day and completely forgot to drop one course on the last day of add drop period, I’m a server so I work till around 2am most nights, since I technically dropped it at 2am on the 17th I missed the cut off and they charged me full Tuition, and advice on what to do about this

STFU!!

Y’all there’s literally ONE silent zone in the library, can we PLEASE respect the sound zones and each other by yapping in the areas (legit everywhere else) designated for conversation…. Like I get some chat here and there, but hanging out socially and not studying is really disruptive to the people who have nowhere else quiet to go:/
