Category: Shorts

Appearing: Graham Stark, Paul Saunders, Morgan vanHumbeck and Bill Watt

Writing: Johnny_Lunchbox

Editing: Graham Stark

Location: Graham's Parents' House

Synopsis

Graham provides us with a fascinating look into the process behind the creation of LoadingReadyRun's videos - except that the "process" seems to consist mostly of Graham changing the script to give himself more screen time and writing out everyone else's parts. When Paul discovers that Graham is making the latest video entirely by himself, starring himself, the process of vengeance begins!

The Process should be contrasted with Loading Time - A Saturday in the Life of LRR a real behind the scenes look at LoadingReadyRun. Admittedly the crew is far more organized in Season Six than in Season Two.

Quotes

[Paul and Graham are looking over the latest script]

Paul: I think we need more dialouge in Scene 2.

[Long pause]

Paul: Yeah, yeah, definately need more dialouge.

Graham (Voiceover): After hours of such joyous glee, the story is then taken under rigorous analysis.

Graham: [Now alone] Alright, how can I get more onscreen time?

Graham's Voiceover: This is where painful yet neccesary editorial decisions sre made.

[Graham begins cutting every scene he is not in]

---

[Graham has just informed Paul that he is doing the video alone, after having cut him, Bill, and Morgan]

Graham: Oh! But there's a bright side.

Paul: [Imitates] Oh! And what is that?

Graham: You're kind of... sort of... in it now... [Points to the camera]

Paul: You didn't turn the camera off when I walked in the frame?

Graham: Funny thing about the cameraman...

Paul: You pissed him off too... You know how many fruit basket's it's gonna take to fix all this?

Trivia

• The phrase "Oh, hello. I didn't see you there." is a running gag in LRR videos.
• At the start of Season Two Graham experimented with different music and different opening graphics for the opening before returning to the standard one in Celestial Sea: Episode 1.
