15 Seconds

Here’s 15 Seconds, another UCB Comedy video I helped produce. Written by Chris Kelly. Directed by Mitch Magee. Shot/edited by Todd Bieber. Originally done by 27 Kidneys at Maude Night. Check it out!

This is one of my favorite sketches I’ve ever seen at UCBT, because it surprised me even though I’ve seen a million “bomb defusing” scenes/sketches before. We wanted to find a real warehouse to film in, but I couldn’t locate one with a location fee of under $400 — so we did this in the back hallways of the UCBT. Those hallways have been the subject of countless “let’s shoot this [...]

Bieber pointed out that it isn’t THAT far off from the American Express commercial M. Night did. I mean, we did a “Be Kind Rewind” version, but still.

My blog can’t handle its widescreen awesomeness.

Ask Bobby

Here’s Ask Bobby — a Rob Lathan sketch from the Osgood-Schlatter days. I had the pleasure of shooting and editing these. Greg Tuculescu and Violet Krumbein are the callers.

Spoiler Alert: If you’ve watched it already, you’re probably trying to put the pieces together. Ok, a few pieces of advice: watch what Bobby does with his hands right in the opening credits of the show, then compare that with the record sleeve that comes into view towards the end. Remember that FDR had a cat named “Ben.” If you watch the timer at the bottom, you’ll see that a significant confession always seems to arrive when the clock [...]
