The outtakes I posted below are from this Hardly Working! I really like this one, for all of the obvious reasons. But also for some less obvious ones. Firstly, because I got to do a lot of background acting. One of my favorite things is to make subtle jokes that are rewarding only really when you watch a video for a 3rd or 4th time. I thought it’d be really funny to be super nonchalant as each of my fellow coworkers gets terrorized. Behind the real action, see if you can find me 1.) Looking at my phone. 2) Chugging a bottle of Green Tea and 3.) Stretching my shoulders. There’s also a great shot of Dan crying during Pat and J-Mike’s couch shot.
The other reason I love this video is because it features John Zanussi and Andrew Pile, two programmers who don’t usually get to step in front of the camera. They each did an awesome job. Obviously.
