Pure Pwnage Interview

Pure Pwnage Interview
Posted :: Apr 23, 2005 by Haggs

I recently ran across a website known as Pure Pwnage. The website is run by a film school student, Kyle, and a few of his friends who have worked together to create a show with the same name, Pure Pwnage. Pure Pwnage is a show about Jeremy, a self-proclaimed professional gamer and professional gaming culture. Currently there are six completed episodes, all of which are available for download at PurePwnage.com. The shows contain numerous references to popular games and movies such as World of Warcraft, Command and Conquer, Counter-Strike, and Kill Bill. After watching a few episodes of the show and laughing myself to tears, I sent Kyle and Jeremy an email to find out more about the show, and to hear what they had to say.

>AI: Can you give the audience some background information on Pure Pwnage?

>Kyle: Well, its a show about pro gaming, and pro gamers... I basically follow around Jeremy with the camera and people get to see what is going on in his life. I think the most talented gamers in the world can all relate to what Jeremy has to say.

>Jeremy: its a show about how much i pwn basicly

>AI: Where did you get the idea for your show? How did it all get started?

>Kyle: I wanted to get some test footage for my camera and I wanted to test out my new editing software, so I filmed Jeremy talking about Command and Conquer zero hour. I edited that footage into a preview for a show, and lots of people emailed us saying they wanted to see the show and wanted to know when it was coming out. So we started making episodes, and here we are.. at episode 6.

>Jeremy: 1 day im liek 'hey kyle y dont u stop filmin ghey stuf like that leaf falling n mebbe u could actualy b less n00b' n hes all like 'im a total n00b so i dunno what 2 film so pls help me jeremy' so im liek 'just film me then omg.. i pwn so much peeps will totaly watch it n it will b big n well b famose' n i wuz rite liek i always am lol

>Kyle: Just me, Dave, Jeremy.. pretty much the people you see in the show.

>Jeremy: n i guess doug 2 lol

>AI: How long would you say it takes to produce each episode?

>Kyle: It takes a long time to edit and to record music.. especially when I'm in school. so I suppose we release an episode about once every two months. Hopefully this summer we can release episodes more frequently than that.

>Jeremy: about 30 mins i think.. i dunno waht kyle does after he

>AI: When do you plan to release the next episode?
