For the last couple months, we’ve been hard at work on creating the first episode in what we hope will be a continuing web series — Lowered Expectations. The show will be a comedy revolving around Josh, a filmmaker who, after losing a career-making film deal, has no choice but to leave New York and move home with his parents in Boulder, Colorado.

Starring writer/director Josh Shayne’s real family — his co-writer Vic Shayne, sister Tasha and mom Janice (in addition to numerous friends and acquaintances), the show is not quite reality, not quite fiction. We’ll leave it to you to figure out exactly where the lines blur.

The official premiere of Episode One is Friday July 6th, 2007. However, for those of you who can’t wait, we’ve shot a couple of trailers for the show and are posting them here on Floating Lightbulb Films.

You can WATCH the TRAILERS HERE:
