AN A+ OPSTER (:

thespaceinvader posted:

E: and having been in the audience for some filmings, albeit not of sitcoms but of topical shows, the filmings can be incredibly tedious, so it's not surprising the laughter sometimes feels a bit forced. When you've sat through the fourth or fifth reshoot of a single joke it can be pretty hard to keep the energy up.

Audience work is the absolute worst. I had a class one semester that required you to do it a few times.

There is nothing more mind numbing than sitting through 8 hours of D list celebrities playing poker and having to stop every two minutes to get crowd reactions. 'Okay this time you are all just shocked' 'clap and cheer everyone!!! Let's get excited!!!!' 'Now act sad like you can't believe it'. Repeat 100x.

Nothing makes you lose your enthusiasm for Whose Line Is It Anyway like sitting in the audience through a six-hour taping of it.

"Okay everyone, you know that one off-the-cuff song they did this morning that was so funny? Ryan accidentally mentioned Hitler or child molestation or something in it, so we have to do it again, and they're gonna do their best to remember what they sang, and you all have to pretend to find it as funny as it was the first time. Go!"

Bull poo poo it was an accident. Ryan was constantly intentionally loving things up just to annoy the director. Which is ~hilarious~. Of course I never had to sit through it.

Nobody is allowed to go to the toilet until the director says so. Not the performers, not the host, not the camera and sound people and definitely not the audience.

Per Google translate:

quote:

special rust color paint vintage, all parts were artificially made to look old, some tube also have a function, such as the entire mass is passed over almost all metal parts
with integrated plasma ball operational with 4 1.5V batteries (not included)
Tremolo arm was completely modified, see pictures
with many copper parts, genuine leather inserts and genuine cartridge cases

I'm only a dabbler guitarwise, but I'm pretty sure if you try to play that thing you will strain your wrist as well as destroying your credibility.

This is pretty bad but I have to respect their ability to emulate animatronics so well.
