Three weeks out of 1& a Half
So the great thing about taking a little time off with this gig is that I can't just not do the work or delay it until I get back on the job, but we have to really cram the work of all the time I am taking off into the week preceeding. So I am making this week's video today and making next week's on Monday. Maybe Tuesday if I hold so the sketch's author can be in it - Tim Sniffen is in Frankfurt just now, on a tour show that's been going two weeks. Coming up is our Harry Potter/Reality TV take-off for the release of the new book, and the next week's video will be on the buyability of TV media in the setting of Hurricane Season. It's funnier than it sounds.
This last week's video came out well and got a great response from the crowd at Heineken Late Nite.
A still from the video 'Amsterdam Safe?', spoofing reasons why Amsterdam is not a great target for terrorism:

This was also a fun show as it was the first for our four new actors (they did really well getting shoved out of the improvisational nest, jetlag & all), and I had some fun video improvisation bits as well, which I don't get the opportunity for every day anymore...
