TOC: Fist of all, we'd all like to know how "Vampire Mob" happened to be...
JW: I was working as a private investigator and during an investigation I commented to someone that there's a lot of vampire stories and mafia stories always seem to come back, where's the Vampire Mob story?
I have written a lot of screenplays that have not yet made it to a screen and I didn't want to wait for someone to give me permission to tell this story, so I didn't. We made this story instead. Best decision, ever.
TOC: Vampire Mob is a show without frills about the Mafia and a hitman vampire. What is your background
in that?
JW: I am not a member of the mafia nor a vampire and have not worked professionally as a hitman.
I did work as a bartender in Boston and had a couple mob regulars, who definitely inspired some of the characters in Vampire Mob.
Working as a private investigator also helped as the story has some surprises and twists, I'll leave it at that (spoilers!)
TOC: How do you keep up with the funding of the show?
JW: The budget for season two was raised by our audience donating through the web site (http://www.VampireMob.com). We lost over $6,000 on Kickstarter in October of 2010 because we didn't hit our goal of $10,000. I didn't want to go another round with Kickstarter or Indiegogo and decided to go indie. Since that time we raised over $10,000 to shoot season two, which took six months.
TOC: And how do you manage to meet deadlines?
JW: I keep working, drink lots of coffee and don't sleep much. I don't recommend it.
TOC: You have worked on other shows too. Which of them do you find remarkable and/or worth mentioning?
JW: I wrote for an animated web series called "Like, News" in 1999 and I also directed and produced on a couple of web series made by Superdeluxe.com in 2007, including an episode of "Powerloafing" starring Neil Patrick Harris pre-Dr. Horrible, which he is very funny in.
TOC: Which actor would you love to have join the "Vampire Mob" cast?
JW: I like to work with actors who have chops and want to have fun, if they don't fit that description, I'm not interested.
TOC: Do you face problems in finding locations for the show? If yes, we'd love to hear some stories!
JW: Writing scenes in locations I know I can secure easily has always been the way I make this story. There were only two locations I had in the season two script that I did not have while writing the script.
I put the word out for ideas and help and that's how I scored one of them. The other I used Google street maps and did a little location scouting that way.
A few were stolen locations shot without a permit, including driving around in a car.
