Red Letter Media, LLC is an American film and video production company operated by independent filmmakers Mike Stoklasa (formerly of GMP Pictures)[3][4][5] and Jay Bauman (formerly of Blanc Screen Cinema).[citation needed] It was formed by Stoklasa in 2004 while he was living in Scottsdale, Arizona, but has long been based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It attracted significant attention in 2009 through Stoklasa's 70-minute video essay review of the 1999 film Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. The review was posted in seven parts on YouTube, and was presented by his character "Harry S. Plinkett" (often shortened to "Mr. Plinkett"). While Stoklasa had prior success with prior other video reviews of several Star Trek films, his Phantom Menace and subsequent Star Wars prequel review went viral and were praised for both content and presentation.[citation needed]
Numerous other series have been produced by Red Letter Media, including several movie review–based web series (Half in the Bag, Best of the Worst, and re:View), satirical podcasts (The Nerd Crew) and video game-based web series (Game Station 2.0, Previously Recorded). Low-budget features produced by and starring Stoklasa and other Red Letter Media members have been largely comedies like Oranges: Revenge of the Eggplant, or horror films such as Feeding Frenzy, The Recovered and Space Cop. Alongside Stoklasa and Bauman, Red Letter Media also employs Rich Evans, Stoklasa's long-time friend and confidant, as a full-time actor, stagehand, and best boy for their projects. Stoklasa, Bauman, Evans, and their friends Jack Packard, Josh Davis, and Tim Higgins appear as cast members for the vast majority of their YouTube releases.
