| 6/11/09 | Tarvuism |  Robert Popper is a BAFTA winning producer and award-winning comedy TV writer. He's also a best-selling author. Peter Serafinowicz is an award-winning performer, writer and producer, who's appeared in many movies. Together they created the award-winning spoof science comedy, Look Around You for BBC TV. "Peter and I created a fake online religion at www.tarvu.com We decided to make it really believable and incredibly detailed. When we made the short clip to put online, we wanted it to feel as real as possible, so performers were told to imagine that this was a genuine religion, and that they genuinely believed in it. Anything too 'big' or 'comedic' was not used. We loved the idea of a religion that had a very deep and complex mythology - an octopus, a prophet called Amzamiviram, the holy book, the Tarvunty. We had fun dreaming these things up. Praise Tarvu!" | Robert Popper | Peter Serafinowicz | 2008 | |
