Episode 7 Sneak Peek!

Hey! Robb here, with a sneak peek of LFTI Episode 7!

Now, I haven’t gotten Tanya and Steve’s permission to do this, so I’m going to have to type fast (though I don’t really know why). And you’re going to have to read it twice as fast (though that shouldn’t be a problem considering that I type incredibly slow)!

Below, I have posted EXCLUSIVE screen shots from the next episode of Life From The Inside! “But, Robb!” you ask “how did you gain access to such guarded treasures?! Did you have to break into LFTI headquarters?! Or, do you have a secret informant working ‘on the inside’?”

Well, that is an incredibly stupid question. It’s a good thing that I invented that entire exchange and you didn’t actually ask it.

But I have been staring at the episode for a few weeks now as I’ve been editing it and I’ve been dying to show somebody! That’s when the idea hit me… you’re “somebody.” Why not show it to you?

Why not indeed.

Here it is. The world EXCLUSIVE peek at LFTI Episode 7 (I’d spill the title here, but I honestly can’t remember what we decided to call it… needless to say, whichever title we settled on will have an asterisk before it. It will also be some kind of disclaimer and deliciously apropos)!












WOW! COMPELLING!! EXCLUSIVE!!!

There you have it! I hope I didn’t give too much away.

Now there may be some of you out there who think that I’m being deliberately and annoyingly coy about all this. To you I say, maybe I’m not? Perhaps I’ve represented the episode to its fullest? Maybe we shot it this way? How do you know? And frankly, I don’t like your hypothetical tone! Episode 7 could be the trippiest sitcom you’ve ever seen!

Then again, I could just be being deliberately and annoyingly coy.

Watch episode 7!

In Good Hands

Hello. Steve here. As the newest but oldest producer on the show, I know I am a bit of an unknown quantity. To quell any rumblings regarding my qualification to produce high-quality, hilarious episodes of Life from the Inside, I have decided that my first weekly post to the LFTI blog will be an enlightening, though drastic truncation, of my curriculum vitae. A curriculum vitae, or "CV" for short, is actually a résumé, but fancy people, like me, prefer to call it a CV so that I may claim to be fancy people.

1969: Born in a small town in central Colorado to a set of six socially conservative parents.

1970: Begin preschool early to get a jump on my studies.

1982: Make my first home movie with my friend Sven. The 8mm black-and-white silent film is a 46-minute staging of the epic poem, "Hortense and the Crusted Tide," by Montgomery Woolworth Sears (1746-). Ran camera and played Mr. Sir Trundle, the Untoward Ecclesiastic.

1984: Miss the Macintosh ad during the Super Bowl. Don't actually see it until 1988.

1987: Graduate Magnum cum Magma from Arvada Northwest Regional Preparatory School and Ersatz Military Academy with a pre-degree in Film Emulsion Chemistry and Elastodynamic Theory.

1988: Finish a year at Stanford, not realizing they had not accepted me in the first place. My brother Milton had "misplaced" the rejection letter as some kind of prank. Dumbshit.

1990: Create Tilted Equator Productions at Boston Collegiate University with four colleagues. Make six short films and two features during our first semester. One of these features, The Weeping Game, goes on to win accolades worldwide for its emotional portrayal of a woman whose tear ducts are sealed by a Lasik accident and who is therefore unable to cry for her dying sister, thus leading to the downfall of the Sino-Prussian Empire.

1991: Graduate from BCU with Super Über Magnum cum Magnanimous honors. Give all proceeds to the Hurry Up and Make a Wish Already, Will You? You Haven't Got Much Time! Foundation.

1993: With leftover chums from Tilted Equator, shoot the first-ever 34-part online independent mini-series, An Oratory for All Humanity. Transfered from U-matic to ASCII animation using a proprietary technique I invented on weekends during college, Oratory was meant for distribution on the soon-to-launch Prodigy dial-up service. The series never saw the light of day, however, and even now remains a subject I'd rather not discuss, much less bring up in a CV such as this.

1994: Move to Los Angeles. Learn there is indeed such a thing as bumper-to-bumper traffic at 10:30pm.

2006: Lose all records and files from 1994–2006 in a mutant silverfish infestation. Forgot everything I may have done during those years.

2007: Begin work on Life from the Inside.

2008: Complete my first official posting for the LFTI blog.

I hope this modest listing helps me to earn your trust and assures you that the future of Life from the Inside is in good feet. Hands! Oops. Crap.

Production Tip

When you have the brilliant idea of having your cast members climb under a table/through a doorway, pay attention to the fact that some of your cast may be too tall to fit comfortably under your table.

Joe (aka "Tall Cop" from Episode 6) was very understanding, even though he got stuck at least once and scraped his knee several times.

Also, make sure you cast awesome people (Like JOE!) who won't freak out when they realize they are really too tall to fit under your table, but will keep trying anyway.

Take after take after take.

We've Gone Viral

Viral on Veoh, that is.

Yes, Sunny and her intrepid co-producer Josh made the dangerous trek to the LFTI set in order to interview us. Apart from having a great time, we managed to get some info out about the show.

Thanks for spreading the word, Sunny!

Check it out!

All A-Twitter

So the madness is over. We’ve been off the front page of YouTube for a while now. I just wanted to take a few minutes to thank all of our new subscribers for their support! It’s nice to have people following the show. We had no plans to quit making the show, but all of the great comments have really energized us!

Honestly, we appreciate each and every one of you. We practically gave ourselves carpal tunnel syndrome thanking everyone on YouTube. But that’s a nice way to see what our subscribers are up to.

And if you haven’t subscribed to us on YouTube yet, why not go there and do so? We’ll thank you! Personally! We’ll write you a very specific message in your comments like “Thanks for Sunscribing!” And If I’ve typed it fast, that’s exactly what it’ll say. Sunscribing. Or “ubscibing.”

(Here’s a little bit of trivia for you, if the word “Subscribing” is capitalized, I wrote it. If it’s not, it was most likely Tanya. Now you know.)

Speaking of seeing what people are up to…if you want to know what we’re up to here at LFTI, all you have to do is check out our Twitter feed! I’ve added it to the sidebar of this blog (over there, on the right). So you can be kept abreast of all our doings through esoteric ramblings and half-clues. Or you can go to our Twitter page. If you have a Twitter account (or want one, it’s pretty cool and all the hip kids are doing it these days) you can “follow” us. If you let us know about your Twitter feed, maybe we’ll “follow” you back!

It’ll be like the blind leading the blind.

Speaking of…I can’t wait to premier Episode 7!

See, that’s the kind of half-clue I was talking about.

Oh, one more thing; I don’t want to start any kind of hysteria, but yesterday I completed a rough cut of the entire 7th episode of LFTI!

UPDATE!

The drama is over! We are back on the front page of YouTube!

Why not go there and watch, rate, subscribe and most importantly comment. It would be nice to hear nice things from the people who like our show (and our cast).

Thanks, YouTube!

UPDATE to the UPDATE

We've been getting a lot of nice comment from a lot of great people. This guy is one of them:



Thanks StJude482!

Life From The Inside was about two inches from being able to sit at the cool kid’s table. So close that we could smell the name brand snack cakes.

But like a nerd taken to the prom by the hottest girl in school as a joke, eventually your bubble will be burst…and in a cruel way.

Now we are back at the table by the door listening to tales of all-night D&D campaigns and gnawing on Little Debbies.

YouTube featured us on the front page today…for about an HOUR.

I don’t know if there was a glitch or what, but we’re gone now. We did get a bunch of new subscribers, which was very nice. I would have like to have been up longer, but I guess you take what you can?

At least I have a cool screenshot of the event as proof! That’s something! And we can ALWAYS say that we’ve been featured on the front page of YouTube!

And we will.
