Up in Smoke

If you can't smoke it, why bother?

About Me

The Up in Smoke Video Podcast exists because creator Calee Lee wanted to find a way to showcase her filmmaking talents, create something that could be accessed by a large audience, and not cost a lot of money.
Unfortunantly, the short film market is oversaturated and intensely reliant on large budgets and extensive crews. While we could have made a little film about life in a cigar shop, we felt a mini sit-com, broadcast over iTunes would not only be the best way to tell the story, but the best method of distribution as well.
Today, the Up in Smoke Video Podcast crew film every other week and post their episodes on iTunes, Up in Smoke Video Podcast on iTunes , and on their website CigarVideoPodcast.com
Check out the Up in Smoke Video Podcast and see what all the buzz is about!
