The Gate Keepers have my attention. The Gate Keepers, is a web-based series hosted by Damon Dash's Creative Control site, features "Sneed" and "The Chad" two New York City night club door men. In the series the two St. Peters talk of all the tall tales that coincides with working in night life. The wild anecdotes and personal narratives add some perspective to a job that is usually characterized as rude and shallow.
The show has avoided what many projects fall prey to, GIPE (Good Ideas Poorly Executed). You can imagine how refreshing it is to see a good idea properly executed. The show concept is a good idea because it's a voice that has yet to be heard; but what really keeps me coming back for more is the artfulness of its production value. The show masterfully marries cinematic shots with complementing music, creating this lovely tableau that truly captures the zeitgeist of New York. Furthermore, I love the show's romantic noir undertone about New York City; it reminds why I love to call this place home.
