IFC's Portlandia Premiere Event at the Natural History Museum in NYC 

On Thursday, January 5th, Axios Productions once again teamed up with IFC to shoot, produce, and edit the premiere event for Season 2 of IFC's latest hit series, Portlandia. It'a a sketch comedy show created and writtern by Fred Armiston of Saturday Night Live and actress Carrie Brownstein, formerly of the band Sleater-Kinney, both of who were on the red carpet to talk about the latest season and whats in store moving forward. Also making an appearance on the carpet and at the after party were a slew of guest stars and celebrity friends including Jeff Goldblum, Seth Meyers, Andy Samberg, and Jack McBrayer (Kenneth from 30 Rock).

Portlandia premiers a new episode every Friday night at 9pm and is filled with some of the quirkiest characters on TV (most played by Brownsten and Armiston) and a variety of unexpected guest stars such as Eddie Vedder and Edward James Olmos. When you get Edward James Olmos in a skit, you know you've got something good!

To get a quick idea, check out this skit with Jeff Goldblum, it cracks me up everytime...I mean, long has Jeff traveled from the days of Brendel Fly!

Special thanks to Senior Producer Tom Kettells for working his red carpet magic as always!
