Showtime!

Wow. I just got back from production of the new "Syracuse Live." A TV studio is a very intense place indeed. Fortunately, everything worked out. I even got to do a countdown at the beginning of the show. Hooray.

Anyway, we did this one live to tape/internet, which means the sketch I blogged about yesterday is now online. If your computer can play WMV files, you can check it out.

Go to this page, and under the heading "SU Live 02-29-2004," click the "view entire episode" window. The very first pre-credits sketch is the one I helped with, and if you read yesterday's post, it should be fairly obvious which one I am.

Keep in mind that those tiny shots took 4 hours to put together. Oh, yeah, they DID actually use the "WHY??!!" shot in the Wyoming one. Heh heh.

This stuff is hard work.

UPDATE
I just remembered something I can brag about. You know the part at the end of the sketch where the "he's just dead" guy pops up from behind the couch? I came up with that. He was originally just going to walk in from the side, but that's not funny enough.

The cinder block thing wasn't mine, although you can hear me laughing off camera after "his name is Balthasar."

If you don't know what I'm talking about, you REALLY need to watch this. The funniest parts are the ones we shot in the studio.
