High Maintenance - Make - Story

Less, is more. There are some things you can skimp on, but story is not one of them. The creators of the hit web series, "High Maintenance," prove you can use a simple story structure to engage a modern audience. Ideas take time to form, and they spent sixteen months thinking about the story they wanted to tell. Ben, Katja and Russel realized that the essence of their story could actually be told without all the exposition and excessive backstory. They chose instead to focus on his clients, which, if you think about it, is kind of genius. We now have an endless cast of characters to introduce and the allure of never really knowing who the main character is. Each of their episodes follows a specific formula. If you can't work with a large budget, work with what you've got. So, if you've got a character centered show, do what they did: write for the actors you have access to. High maintenance gives us a model that's proven to work. Keep it simple, and set the bar where you can reach it. Make. Story. High Maintenance.
