Plenty of cheaply made web series (in Fairhurst’s words, “our budget for each episode is the cost of pizza”) tend to have one shortcoming – they look cheap. One of the biggest tell-tale signs that you’re watching a series made for little or no money is that the camera quality is bad, sometimes worse than YouTube quality, the sound is barely audible, and you can tell it was filmed on a street corner with pedestrians staring at the camera quizzically.
All in all, The Murder of Dirk Snowglobe promises to have strong film noir elements and a proper musical accompaniment, while telling a complicated story with a comedy twist on it. And it’s all shot in high definition on a low budget. Fairhurst himself summed it up best- “With so many entertainment options available, we wanted to present something new and different.” After talking to him, I think they just might pull it off. The Snowglobe site is already live, with a number of “clues” already in place for over eager sleuths.
