Fun With Shorts! How Much?

In which a series of very professional but also very stupid men explain that it costs money to make movies. How much? Totes much!

Hi, Josh, The link in my Patreon page worked just fine. You are as usual a lot of fun, but I wonder if this short actually provided more than the price of film stock and magnetic recording in the ... 1950s? The bit where the guy with the mustache kept changing his price was funny in itself, and somewhat educational. It does let us knkow that we have to watch what we say in negotiations. Being mildly autistic, I should leave negotiating to others, whenever possible. I'm now going to watch this one again, to see if the short actually ever answered its title question.

Wow. You did so much better a job on this short than did the original creators. It seemed to teach that at best, prices are set by what recollections of costs that producers have in mind during negotiations. How much was wasted on this short by them?

But really, this is an absolute gem of a find for you. :)

Josh! Josh! I can't find Rikk Wolf's email, and he's said he gets snowed under with such. As I've been watching my way through various Patreon projects, I branched to a YouTube video by the people who create Extra Credits and Extra History. They're examining issues with computer games' conversation systems. From what I gather, if Rikk can get to Mass Effect: Andromeda, before it gets patched, the problems with the new Frostbite design engine, that show up in odd behavior, will be eminently riff-worthy. An Incognito Gaming Warriors series with this game could be great, and might really ride a wave of popular feeling. Here'sthe URLk to the video: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qvvmVpS3AA" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qvvmVpS3AA</a>
