Leaving Bliss is an independent web series that follows the sometimes sad but frequently funny travails of Patience Owen, a Pollyanna-type who flees her sparsely populated hometown in favor of Hollywood to pursue her dream of making it big on the “tinsel screen.” Four to six-minute episodes are released biweekly.
Actor/writer Shanna Micko is a graduate of the USC Master of Professional Writing program and the I.O. West improv training program. Director Steve Yager, whose comedic shorts with Elders of the Dark Tower (www.eldersofthedarktower.com) have been official selections at L.A. Comedy Shorts Film Festival, Sketchfest Seattle and Sketchfest NYC, is currently working on a degree in film production.
“Leaving Bliss” was shot on a Canon XH-A1 digital camera in Los Angeles.
