Jake and Amir - Production

Production

The duo can create episodes of the show no matter where they are. Dan Frommer of Business Insider explains how "a trip to Florida became a four-part miniseries...broken-arm casts become props..girlfriends become actresses... after an hour-plus presentation to the NY Videoblogging Meetup, they used the crowd as extras to shoot a scene for a future episode". The early episodes of the show were filmed on essentially no budget, with just a cheap camera without a tripod (no tripods are still used when "field shooting").

Whilst both actors have problems laughing on camera, Jake finds it harder to keep a straight face, as displayed in the numerous outtakes videos posted onto their YouTube channel.

Famous quotes containing the word production:

    The growing of food and the growing of children are both vital to the family’s survival.... Who would dare make the judgment that holding your youngest baby on your lap is less important than weeding a few more yards in the maize field? Yet this is the judgment our society makes constantly. Production of autos, canned soup, advertising copy is important. Housework—cleaning, feeding, and caring—is unimportant.
    Debbie Taylor (20th century)

    ... if the production of any commodity necessitates the sacrifice of human life, society should do without that commodity, but it can not do without that life.
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    The heart of man ever finds a constant succession of passions, so that the destroying and pulling down of one proves generally to be nothing else but the production and the setting up of another.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
