The First Instagram TV Show

Aleks Arcabascio is part of a team of New York University film grads that just created the first Artistically Challenged, an adventure-comedy series written, directed, and shot exclusively for Instagram.

Artistically Challenged was shot over two weeks throughout New York City in more than 20 locations with a volunteer crew of more than 25–including many NYU alumni and current students–and a cast of more than 30 people.

Each episode follows the story of Nick Romaine, a struggling young artist in New York City, who tells a small lie and becomes an overnight celebrity only to find that his success comes at a hefty price. Throughout the episodes, Nick scrambles through sticky situations with crazed fans, pirates, henchmen, eccentric collectors and powerful art dealers. Mary McCann, founding member of the Atlantic Theater Company in New York, stars in several episodes as Bonnie, the series’ cunning and ruthless villain.
