The Project:
When Aryè and Briana met in a class at he Groundlings comedy theater, they bonded immediately. Both were not only on ridiculously dumb diets, but both were sore from working out too hard, and both were exhausted from trying to do all that and more while working full-time jobs. Needless to say, it was love at first sight.
As two hard-working over-achieving actress with a common love for comedy and fitness, creating their own web series that takes place in the fitness world seemed only natural. And once they found Erik, a talented director who shares not only their love for comedy but their intense work ethic, a fabulous team was created.
Over the past few months as the scripts have been written and the women have cast their talented and hysterical friends in various roles, the momentum has built up immensely. The entire team is excited to make these dreams a reality and incorporate so many things they’re excellent at- fitness, funny, and over-achieving.
The Other Client list is a chance for these two hilarious women and one very talented and funny man to showcase their own comedic sensibilities while doing what they do best- entertaining people all over the world.
