Launch of Web Series Adult Day Care


Adult Day Care We Series Launch

As promised DA Vision Pictures is launching its new web series Adult Day Care. I, Derick Thomas developed the show about workplace antics a year ago during the filming of my latest feature, Raising Wolves. If you’ve ever had a full time job for more than a few months than you can relate to some of the odd, strange and sometimes perplexing events that happen in the workplace. This year I decided to jump in front of the camera a bit and take on a role in the web series. Acting has always been a passion of mine and I’m naturally funny or use to being laughed at with reticule. However, both acting and directing will prove to be adventurous at best as the series tackles countless problems about the workplace.

The title speaks for itself. Adults can behave like children 23 three hours out of a day it seems, the 5 O’clock news is evidence of that. Why I chose the workplace you may ask because the workplace for many is a second family and for a growing number of loners the first. People often bring their problems from home to the workplace and co-workers are usually on the front line, so the job can be an interesting place.

I chose to launch the show on the web because; the internet is a great medium to build an audience. You can connect with the audience and get genuine feedback from the material in real time. I do hope to produce about two or three episodes a month. My hope is that we can build a faithful following of new viewers throughout the year.

Producing a comedy style series has always been on my list of things to do. I think there nothing more challenging than coming up with fresh material week after week. The great thing about ideas is they are everywhere; all you have to do is walk out your front door.

Don’t forget to subscribe to Adult Day Care web series and tell your friends and family about it. If you have some ideas or if something interesting happened to you in the workplace tell us about. Maybe we’ll make it into an episode.

Respect Deserves No Applause

Respect Deserves No Applause I wonder what happened to the days where you treat people how you want to be treated. In all fairness I’m a little young to have experience that age being a child of the 70’s. I didn’t see a lot of it growing up but there was some left. However, I’m still old enough to know what respect is, what it should look like and feel like and to be honest I’m not seeing a lot of it lately. For instance, I contacted an upwardly mobile person of business and of some celebrity for potential business opportunity via the internet of course and was given the viral cold shoulder. Now, in all fairness I know they have people coming to them all the time with ideas and it could be hard to vet who’s serious. I didn’t think I came off aloof but you never know what someone is thinking or the opinion they formed about you based on what little information they had. I’m no outsider to the film industry; however I am clearly not an insider in this person’s mind so the p...

DERICK A THOMAS BALTIMORE'S VISIONARY OF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN MALE

BALTIMORE'S VISIONARY OF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN MALE By Belinda Trotter-James Derick Thomas now Derick Prince always wanted to be a filmmaker. As a kid he was inspired by the actor Robert Guillaume; you may best know him on the hit television show Benson. At the age of six he has always been a fan of television and it just unfolded into the film-making business when he was a teenager. That’s when he finally got a chance to explore all aspects of film-making. “At the age of six there were not a lot of us on television and television influences children which is one of the reasons why we have so many bad influences today, but that’s another story,” says Derick. “Robert Guillaume was intelligent, articulate, he had power, he had persuasion plus he was the guy who had everything and at six years old I watched him and thought, ‘I can do that.’ He was just a great role model for that time.” When I asked what was he like as a child, he...

Foreign Exchange

I've always been on the fence, no pun intended about whether Americans should be enraged about Mexicans coming into the United State legal or not. I've heard all the key notes, they take up all the jobs, they increase the crime rate, they are benefiting from living in the US but are not paying any taxes and to make matters worse the population is growing faster than any other ethic group. But wait a second, are we judging them a little too harshly. I mean do we really, I mean Americans really want jobs picking fruit, working in hotels and kitchens, doing all sort of construction jobs haven't we become too good for that. Let's face it, the average American wants to be rich, that's what he/she dreams of while working their 30 plus  9 to 5. I mean we even look at working at Walmart as a job for the lower class. I think America just hasn't found a place for the Mexican Americans. There's clearly not enough jobs that pay a living wage for them...
