CONGRATULATIONS! You, lucky winner, are about to receive an ALL EXPENSES PAID, ROUND-TRIP FOR ONE, to OUR NEW VIDEO! (click here for details).

This video was shot about a week or so ago, and as it happened, on a weekend when both James and Kathleen were out of town. This left a skeleton crew of myself, Paul and Graham to take care of this video, and with one person being responsible for the camera, and another for the boom, we had to call in some friends! So this week you get a dose of Missie and Cam, who don’t show up in videos nearly often enough. The script this week was written by Paul, and the video was shot mostly on location at one of our many favourite haunts, Graham’s parents’ house. Amusingly, they were on vacation in England when this video was shot, and after we inadvertently set off the house alarm when we got there, we had to call them in order to figure out how to turn it off. We’re awesome at this.

Unskippable this week was Space Marine. You can view that here.

Checkpoint is online as well, with Episode 23: HD Remix.

Finally, please note that our new tee-shirt is up for pre-order, if you love Magic: the Gathering (and we hope you do!) you’re sure to love this shirt as well.

Cheers!

This week’s video is up, and you can find it here.

Our good friend Cam makes a return in this video, playing one of the more magnificent bastards I’ve ever seen. The video was scripted some time ago, and Kathleen asked if I wanted to read through it one evening when we were hanging out. Given the people that happened to be present at the time it fell to Cam to read a part, and from that point forward we knew he had to be in the video.

The video was shot in several locations over the course of two days. Locations include a laboratory that we were granted access to by a friend, UVic (of course) and our own office.

Unskippable this week is Venetica – Part 1. You can find that here.

Also, Checkpoint Episode 3 is Up on PATV.

Cheers!

After having dispatched a meal, I went ashore, and found no habitation save a single forum, and that without an occupant; we had no doubt that the people had fled in terror at our approach, as the message board was completely furnished with threads.

This week’s video is up. Venture forth into the great unknown, and watch.

This week’s video heavily features our good friend Cam, a fellow whose nobility and class we felt suited that of a worldly explorer. Also, he was around, so that helps. He’s appeared previously in ENN, but I believe this is his debut performance in the core LoadingReadyRun video series. We do hope to have Cam back to appear in future videos, though – he knocks his roles out of the park.

This video was shot over a period of more than a week, and continued our fine tradition of re-shooting scenes on account of audio problems. Originally, James and I played the two roles in the opening scene, having shot on a park bench near the office. We came to discover, subsequently, that the mic hadn’t been plugged into the camera, and the only thing that came through audibly was Graham’s “Ok!, Awesome!” the he spoke directly into the on-board mic as he wrapped the shot. So, instead of the career-defining performances of James Turner and yours truly, you get Jer and Paul.

Unskippable this week was Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions. You can find that here.

Cheers, everyone!
