00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: We talk about you a lot. Yeah we do. I

19
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:35,039

Speaker 1: part of our musical our musical numbers. Thank you, it

22
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: was it was awesome to dance with you all. Had

23
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: you had any prior dancing experience? Well, he's a skater,

24
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: But tell everybody on the podcast what it is that

25
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: you did on Glee. Okay, So I'm Andrew Mitchell. I

26
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: was the a camera steady camp. So I would do

27
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: studio camera steadicam, which is the camera that you wear

28
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 1: on your body and you can move around. And how

29
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: much did the steadicam um way that you wore. You know,

30
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: at the time we were shooting thirty five millimeter film,

31
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: so in that era it was about sixty five pounds,

32
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: you know that is. And you made him look so light. Yeah. Yeah,

33
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 1: take a bag of cement and hold it in front

34
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: of you and that gives you a good idea of

35
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: what steadicam feels like. Yeah, it's really it's so wild

36
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: for people who don't know to watch you do that

37
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: in a full musical number for minutes at a time.

38
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: For reference, I did a movie and we had to

39
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: walk down an alleyway, right, it probably was a minute

40
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: or choo scene and they just kept walking and following,

41
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: and we're walking and the steady cam was struggling, and

42
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: I understand and because it was like it's it's a

43
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 1: heavy operating machine and he barely I mean barely made

44
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: and it's um it's definitely a challenge. So you made

45
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: it look very easy, which is a testament to you

46
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: and your talents. Thank you very much. No one looks

47
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: nearly as graceful with that gigantic piece of machinery strapped

48
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: in their bodies and moving around us to like a

49
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: lot of us didn't really necessarily know the choreography that

50
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: well either, and so he was surprised we didn't have

51
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: more collisions, right because in and out of each other

52
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 1: on the stage, and you guys were amazing at missing

53
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: each other and me. You know, it was a good

54
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: team good teamwork was tea. Yeah. Well, and more importantly,

55
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: they would say most directors who knew you, and like

56
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: Brad Faltruck or Brad Peaker would say, Andrew wins in

57
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: this in this tape, so get out of his way

58
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: if you were, if you were in his way. Yes,

59
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: I remember Zach saying that too. Yeah, exactly, He's right.

60
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 1: You know, do you remember you guys are on it

61
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: sexuals or hello, has Jonathan Roum? Well you wouldn't because

62
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: it was Highway to Hell, right, So that was really

63
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: I forget what group he was, oral intensity or something. Um.

64
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: Actually I actually collided with the girl there. That was

65
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: probably the most serious collision we've ever had on the

66
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 1: show is Steady. They did this move where they were

67
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 1: like looking away and then they turned back and do this,

68
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: and I had pushed it on Jonathan and this girl

69
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: I forget she was somebody special. I think that flown

70
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 1: in somebody's relative and she came right around, turned and

71
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: there I was, and we went, oh god, I felt

72
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: I think she hit the floor. Oh which, yeah, you win.

73
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: I don't one, no, of course, No, definitely the metal one.

74
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: I feel bad about that. Yeah, we disced rather well together. Yes,

75
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: we all did. We did. We We had a short

76
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: shorthand at some point where we you know, we kind

77
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: of knew, like Andrew's around, you look behind you, you

78
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: look at your side, you make sure you know, we

79
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: look at each other. So, um, it was a pretty

80
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: special relationship that we had with you. And you were

81
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: one of the You were you were the person who

82
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: kind of kept track of how many numbers we would do, right,

83
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: that's true. What we were kind of what was Romicle

84
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: yearbook out and it was seven seven hundred forty one performances.

85
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: So we had a little while, a little laminated sticker

86
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: on the camera and each time we did a performance,

87
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: we would check it off. I think the music side

88
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: of Glee says we did more, which you probably did

89
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 1: because of the albums you did outside. Yeah, I think

90
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 1: so we didn't actually shoot, right, how many of those

91
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: do you think you filmed? Did you film every single one? No,

92
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: because I went off to do pilot with Ryan, but

93
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: I think I miss maybe five or six. But there's

94
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: there's a lot. There's definitely a lot that many. That's

95
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: like shooting a music video. Like yeah, when we shot

96
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: the very beginning, we shot Don't Stop Believing, and we

97
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 1: did it like over a period of two days or something. Yes,

98
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: but it was so simple. Right at the end of

99
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: the show, we're like shooting three musical numbers exactly. Well,

100
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 1: that's how it would be scheduled, wouldn't necessarily to get there,

101
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: so you know you you you said this really quickly

102
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: at the beginning, but in a single day, especially for

103
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: a musical number. You were doing three different types of

104
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: like camera operating right like you were doing steadicam. You

105
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: were doing the crane that people may not even realize

106
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 1: that we used a lot on the auditorium and all

107
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: those huge, wide, sweeping, beautiful shots. You were just casually

108
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: knowing how to operate all of those things. Like, how

109
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: did you like pre Glee? You obviously this is not

110
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: your first rodeo, You've been doing this for a while,

111
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: but like, how did you get into this in the

112
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: first place? Well, you know, I since high school, I

113
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: knew I wanted to get into camera, so I pursued it,

114
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: and so at the time we shot the pilot of

115
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight, and I had been a steadicam

116
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: operator for eleven years since then, so I had had

117
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: some experience with cranes and steadicams prior to that. Earlier

118
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: I had done high school musical two and three. I

119
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: did have a little bit of a musical experience, but

120
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 1: I learned so much on Glee with you guys. Oh

121
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: my gosh, you know what's fun is Like you say

122
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: we were dancing together. I remember a lot of people

123
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: messing with me when we were in the quiet room.

124
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: What do you mean, like, you know, if I'm shooting

125
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: the performer by the piano, those of you who would

126
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: sit behind me, there is probably some tickling and some poking,

127
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 1: messing around talking. Yeah, yeah, Penny's a little Texas or Tennessee. Yeah,

128
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: in the back of Milwaukee. Yeah, I mean, I think

129
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 1: we generally had a pretty fun time throughout. Oh yeah,

130
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: especially you two right there across from me. We had

131
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: to get yeah, any good time, Yes, I mean, and

132
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: I think for people who had worked on Ryan Murphy

133
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: shows before and kind of been with Ryan a lot

134
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 1: of this, his material was much darker and much heavier.

135
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: So all of these crew members who have kind of

136
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 1: you know, traveled across you know, Ryan's shows, were like,

137
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 1: this is the happiest we've ever been, and this is

138
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 1: exciting and fun, and you know, you get to dance

139
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: and kind of things are a little bit lighthearted and

140
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: you go. You don't go home going like, oh I

141
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: need to you know, detox from that day. So we

142
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: definitely needed to our days. It's just different. Yeah. No,

143
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,439
Speaker 1: it was definitely the lightest thing I think he's done.

144
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: Snow American Horror Story. Yeah, yeah, no, exactly, exactly exactly. No, Oh,

145
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: my gosh. You well, you guys worked so hard behind

146
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 1: the scenes, you know, I mean did you Yeah? Who

147
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: was there before us and after us? You know? And

148
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,839
Speaker 1: I think that was always important. We always kept each

149
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: other in check by reminding each other of that where

150
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: you guys had families, you were going home, do you

151
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: still have to be a parent? Like we were just

152
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 1: barely keeping ourselves together. So you know when we would

153
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 1: show up, like I'm so tired, Like, um, they got

154
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: here at four and Eli, it's been dark for hours. Yeah,

155
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: so yeah, I mean, how did this You've worked on

156
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: a lot of Ryan's shows or a lot of shows

157
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: in general. I remember, like Penny saying at some point,

158
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: you know, like, oh, this is probably the hardest show

159
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 1: you guys will ever work on. How do you feel

160
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 1: like looking back about the work experience? Like the workload

161
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: of it was that because we had no frame of

162
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 1: reference at the time, we were also knew that we

163
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: were like this is fine. I mean, we were all

164
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 1: used to it. It was fine. But anything we've done

165
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: after it has been so much easier. So like, how

166
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: was that for you? Like being the guy shooting all

167
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: of it? Yeah, I agree with you. Everything after it

168
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: was easier. It was. Yeah, it was probably the most

169
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: demanding show because of all the performances, not only physically,

170
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 1: but then you know, keeping ourselves together, the travel to

171
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 1: like Long Beach, remember when we were headed down there

172
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: to the high school, and even um, you know you

173
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: mentioned like prep and stuff like I had the song

174
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: sent you know, the songs were sent to the operators

175
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: and others, so on the way in, I'm listening to

176
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: the you know, the music to get everything together. And

177
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: I would say it was, um one, it was a

178
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 1: career making show. You know. I won my first my

179
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: operating award off of the show. And you know when

180
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 1: you do something that's hard, you appreciate it much more

181
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 1: at the end. Yeah, right, And so it was hard.

182
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,839
Speaker 1: We put in hours, both both sides put in hours,

183
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: you know in terms of rehearsals and prepping and and

184
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 1: uh like Baffa and Andrew doing all lighting for each

185
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 1: of these episodes. So yeah, yeah, you know, sometimes with

186
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: not a lot of time. Yeah, exactly. So I would

187
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: say in general it was Yeah, it was definitely like

188
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: the hardest show, you know, with everything involved. And like

189
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: you said, you go onto other shows and you're like, oh,

190
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 1: you know, because you, you're probably not going off to

191
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: you know, you guys are like doing a scene and

192
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 1: then running off to record the song, and then running

193
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: off to the dance studio, UM, and then running off

194
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: to party wherever you partied. We'll have some steam, go

195
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 1: to bed and do it again, you know, and then

196
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 1: we're stopped for you either. I remember you had your

197
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: like iPad or video monitor that you would watch all

198
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 1: the rehearsal videos from too. Didn't you get sent the rehearsals, Yeah,

199
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: rehearsals UM sent to me and we watched that and

200
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,959
Speaker 1: try to get things in order in advance. What was

201
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 1: that room that you guys danced and what was that

202
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,719
Speaker 1: called the ten Ship and then the Powerhouse as it

203
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: got we got bigger. Yeah. Yeah, they would send videos

204
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 1: and and uh, you know sometimes there'd be a different

205
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 1: dancer in for one of you because you're on set.

206
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: It was just an amazing thing to pull all that

207
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: together and to make it happen right, and you know

208
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 1: the world loved it. What was your experience liked? Because obviously,

209
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: like for us, they recognize us, they see us going around,

210
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: But for you, was it what was that experience like

211
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 1: as the show kind of blew up to the size

212
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 1: and the magnitude of like what what it was? You know.

213
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: There were two instances where I kind of felt like,

214
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,199
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I'm on this giant like juggernaut of

215
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 1: a show. One was I went to the Grove and

216
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,839
Speaker 1: there were these giant like posters for like they were

217
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: doing like an episode launch on a giant scrap Remember that, ye.

218
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: And then the second time was when we went to

219
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 1: New York YEP. Remember that that was insane, Like you

220
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: guys would get out of the vans and there's like hundreds,

221
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: if not thousands of people behind like barricades, like cheering

222
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: and watching and taking pictures like And it was at

223
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 1: that moment I was like, Wow, this is pretty awesome

224
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 1: to be involved, right. I don't know how you felt

225
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 1: because they were after you, Yeah, exactly. I remember that

226
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: because because we got to hang out, like we when

227
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 1: we were in New York, we all got to like

228
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: have dinners and things because we were all there just

229
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: you know, to work, and we wouldn't normally all get

230
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: to hang out when we were shooting in LA And

231
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: I remember thinking how we were sort of used to

232
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: that that had happened to us several times with you know,

233
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: screaming fans and things in the streets, and it was

234
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 1: really cool seeing your guys' reaction to it. Yeah, like

235
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: in Times Square and you're like, what Leo was like

236
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 1: trying to wrangle us all to get it done. And

237
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: we talk about that because we feel like we worked

238
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 1: the least amount of hours in New York, but just

239
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 1: because you couldn't get too many takes and things because

240
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: they're just screaming fans everywhere, so they had to kind

241
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: of like take us back to cover, which is so wild.

242
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: It was that was a phenomenon, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

243
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: we appreciate it. I think there are definitely times where

244
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, this is probably not the best thing

245
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 1: for my mental health, but also there's a lot of

246
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: times where you know, you're like, that's pretty pretty cool. Yeah,

247
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 1: exactly do you How is it now when you go

248
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: out you still get gleaks that are I mean a

249
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: little bit. We've actually talked about this because, um, recently

250
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: people are rewatching it again, like a new generation entirely

251
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 1: is watching it again. So we go out and Kevin said, he,

252
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: you know, went to New York and people are recognizing

253
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 1: us and he were like, what is going on? Are

254
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: you back in ten? Is this? Like? It's like a

255
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 1: time war? Almost. I had kids running up to me

256
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: and screaming at me. It's like what is this? Yeah?

257
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: Why was it a coffee shop the other day? And

258
00:15:55,520 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: she's the briest is like, I watch your show Glee?

259
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, like cool? Yeah, yeah, my children and their

260
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: friends are watching a you know, yeah, the next generation.

261
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: That's right. My kids when I did high school musical

262
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: and Glee had to be convinced of its impact. Right.

263
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: I have two boys, Yeah, that's that's teeny bopper or whatever.

264
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: They were younger than that, and so you know what

265
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: turned it around was, um, their boys. So as soon

266
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: as there was a girl who was like, wait, you're

267
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: connected with Glee, all of a sudden, it became very cool.

268
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: Right of course, it wasn't cool for that, you know,

269
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: just yeah within that age group. So I'm happy to

270
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: see that, right. I have stories, You have stories. I

271
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 1: used to go visit set all the time. Yeah, exactly.

272
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: A little kid dressed up in his you know, jelly

273
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: being costume or something. Oh, there's cut, right. They would

274
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 1: go to what they called the bean truck. We've ched

275
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:12,719
Speaker 1: jelly beans. Especially craft service. I mean we were all

276
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 1: most excited about the craft Yeah, exactly service. Well favorite

277
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: if you have a favorite crafty uh hell yeah, you

278
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: know in the mornings, I'm not gonna lie. They used

279
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 1: to have those deviled eggs in the mornings and I

280
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 1: was a sucker for a deviled egg. And it looks

281
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: so gross, but of course I can't resist after my

282
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 1: dead love. But it definitely looked like I had been

283
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 1: sitting there for exactly, but I couldn't resist. It's very funny. Oh,

284
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: Telly got me on this like avocado thing where I

285
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: would go in the food truck as a snack between

286
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: meals and just like slice of avocado in half and

287
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: pour like olive oil on it, in salt and pepper,

288
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,959
Speaker 1: and I felt like I was being healthy. I don't know,

289
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: but I loved going in there and making myself sandwiches

290
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: and things. It was nice. Truck was my favorite spot

291
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 1: I'd go out and the hangout in there all the time. Yeah,

292
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,919
Speaker 1: what was the hangout? Did you guys have a hangout?

293
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: It was just do you remember Jenna? They so there

294
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 1: was talk after season one when all of a sudden,

295
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, we have a hit on our hands.

296
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 1: There were all these different things that were thrown at us,

297
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 1: like as possibilities because now there's success and probably a

298
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 1: bigger budget. None of them happened. None of it happened.

299
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: But they were apparently going to get us like a

300
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,360
Speaker 1: really cool like trailer sort of near base camp, more

301
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 1: in between base camp and the stages, a hangout where

302
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: we could we could all hang out, so they could

303
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 1: wrangle us, so we could all be in one place.

304
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 1: I remember that, and I remember seeing like pictures or

305
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,679
Speaker 1: something of the possibilities, and then when we showed up

306
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 1: for our first day of season two, it wasn't there,

307
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 1: and the whole thing had gotten squashed and we didn't

308
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 1: know in this vertus, I just thought we would get

309
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: better crafty and we didn't. I was like better. I

310
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,880
Speaker 1: was like, can we get some like salad bar stuff?

311
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 1: Can we get some like you know and have them

312
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: on here? And they were like, look, we can't. We

313
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 1: got we gotta feed a lot of people. There's no

314
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 1: way we can get all this like expensive like healthy stuff.

315
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 1: And I was like, all right, never mind, Oh my gosh,

316
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 1: I just thought said having this galeasy Brothers on there

317
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: would be a huge I'm just saying it wouldn't be crazy.

318
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: Maybe we should. I haven't seen them in a long time,

319
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. Okay, Andrew, tell us, of all the

324
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: I just you could say, don't stop believing because it

325
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 1: was the homer, but you know, in terms of creating

326
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: a performance or whatever. So here's my here's my favorite

327
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,160
Speaker 1: song that Kevin did with Amber My love is Your Love?

328
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: Do you remembering? Yeah? Yeah, I love this song. I

329
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,959
Speaker 1: don't think there was like huge choreography or anything, but

330
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 1: I just wasn't still on my playlist and all that amazing. Um. Also,

331
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: when Kevin got to do the safety dance in the mall,

332
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 1: so you got to come out of the wheelchair and dance,

333
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: and of course they put the guy who can dance

334
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 1: really well into a wheelchair seeing him and that was

335
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 1: crazy to shoot too, and like a real mall that

336
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: was open. Yeah yeah, the people going by, yeah yeah,

337
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:41,439
Speaker 1: But you could smell it. Your mom was there, Kevin, Yeah,

338
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: it was. That was a special day. That was an

339
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: iconic time, right. And another another iconic thing, Jennifer you

340
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 1: was if you remember your audition the girl. Okay, now

341
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: here's here's the thing, right, it's the song and it

342
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 1: was popular. But what made it so great was that

343
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 1: right enough that that was our thing. That's right for

344
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 1: like the whole season series. Yeah, so that was That

345
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 1: was fun. And then one of my favorite songs that

346
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,120
Speaker 1: you sang was True Colors because I just I really

347
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: loved that song. Yeah, that's an awesome song, right, it

348
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 1: is a fun song. It was song. It was my

349
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: first solo, very exciting, right. Some of my other favorites,

350
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 1: I would say in general would be like, um, you

351
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 1: know we did in Michael Jackson episode Oh my Gosh thriller.

352
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,479
Speaker 1: And then Kevin, when you did that one in like

353
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: the Space Scream, Yeah, yeah, um, Rocky Horror Picture Show.

354
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: Did you guys enjoy that? I thought that was that

355
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: was hard. It was a really long days in costumes,

356
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 1: but it was really fun. That was Yeah. We had

357
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,959
Speaker 1: a very fun director for that one too. Yes, right,

358
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:52,679
Speaker 1: that's right, Um singing in the rain, singing in the

359
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: rain that or not did you get did you get

360
00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: all wet from all the um water in our everything?

361
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 1: Or no? No, not too wet. When I do the

362
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,919
Speaker 1: pit pass, you know, the steadicam low, maybe a splash

363
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: or two. But do you remember that day and the

364
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: issue with the water and the bubbles and all that?

365
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:17,239
Speaker 1: So I didn't, but Ryan explained was explaining some of

366
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 1: that to us when he came on here, because we

367
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 1: had no idea any of that was happening. Oh yeah,

368
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 1: maybe that was what was what was your perspective of that?

369
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: What happened? So the issue was they built the tank

370
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: on the stage and then inside of that was plastic

371
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 1: to keep the water in, and then on top of

372
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:38,400
Speaker 1: that was carpet so that you wouldn't slip. Right, carpet

373
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: had been shampooed right to clean and all, and this

374
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 1: is my understanding, the snope had not all been removed,

375
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 1: so when they put water on, all of a sudden,

376
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 1: we're getting bubbles. And what we needed was that the clear,

377
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: icy black water, right, and so it was just not happening,

378
00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: and it was like, I don't know if you guys remember,

379
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,679
Speaker 1: but we came there a solution was presented, and we

380
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 1: got that hot tub anti bubble, which you're supposed to

381
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 1: put in like tablespoons or one tablespoon per hot tub,

382
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: and we ended up like pouring like four gallons of

383
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 1: it in there to keep the water. Did it work? Yeah,

384
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 1: it totally worked, Okay, And that makes total sense because

385
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: Ryan's story was is that because they had put the

386
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 1: water in too soon, it had created this like gross,

387
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,199
Speaker 1: like fungusy film thing and that, and so he was like,

388
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 1: we can't have them get into a kind of Gwyneth

389
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 1: Paltrow get into this gross water, and so I think

390
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: he probably had them clean it, which includes the carpet sense,

391
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 1: the soapissue. I mean, that's what I heard. The mystery.

392
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: That's so that number was not fun from me. From

393
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 1: you kept getting splashed right all over the place. Yeah,

394
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 1: I was just sitting in water all day. Yeah. I

395
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: was so, oh, well you were in the chair right

396
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 1: in the water. Yeah, so you were, and I was

397
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: just everything was splashing up on me. Yeah. By the

398
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: end of each take, our rain boots would have water

399
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: like up to our knees because they wanted to splash

400
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 1: so much, and we'd be kicking and then it would

401
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:24,360
Speaker 1: end up all in our shoes. Yeah, okay, but look

402
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 1: looking back though, is it not one of the more iconic?

403
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 1: So cool, it's a great number to ware like, okay,

404
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: in sure, sure. Yeah. I want to throw out a

405
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:42,640
Speaker 1: question to you because I had nicknames for everybody, that's right,

406
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 1: but I've forgotten some of them. Okay. And you we

407
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 1: mentioned Bubbles, which was Jenna's nickname, which came from the

408
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 1: Lady Gaga episode which you were in the Bubble Outfit Bubbles,

409
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 1: Then do you remember yours like Maddie Fresh it was

410
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 1: a nickname. Yeah, Diana was pre Sess, that's right, Mark

411
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:10,400
Speaker 1: was saw Saw. Yeah. I'm trying to remember the others.

412
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,639
Speaker 1: And I did I have one? I don't know if

413
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: I have one, must have one. I think the only

414
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: one that I didn't have one for was Lea, So

415
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 1: what I don't know. Yeah, it's hard to remember, but

416
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 1: I if I hear them, I'd be like, oh yeah,

417
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 1: because like, yeah, like you remember Bubbles, I remember Bubbles. Yeah,

418
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: I remember Bubbles. I definitely remember Bubbles so well. Were

419
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: you you were also like one of the crew members

420
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: that was there the whole time? Yeah, which was that's crazy,

421
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: that's really great, and I feel like a lot of

422
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,200
Speaker 1: your department was there the whole time. Like there seemed

423
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 1: to be little turnover, yeah, which is very good family.

424
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: Good family. Yeah. Is that normal? Like for a show

425
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 1: that lasts for six seasons, do you normally have more

426
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:04,120
Speaker 1: turnovers than that? I would think so there'll be certain

427
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 1: shows that you and this one was such a special show.

428
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 1: I think people wanted to stay with it. It became

429
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 1: very close. Yeah, we were still we were all very

430
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 1: close working together. When you go through that together, it

431
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 1: kind of means something special. Yeah, like in New York

432
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: or something, when you the fans see all of us

433
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 1: filming together and you're seeing that sort of for the

434
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 1: first time. It's like to us, the show is obviously

435
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 1: not us, it's all of us, Like when we're thinking

436
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,239
Speaker 1: about doing the show or what it means to us,

437
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: or like when people would say, oh, what do you

438
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: miss about it was like, oh, just being around everyone

439
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: every day because there was we were all very close.

440
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,959
Speaker 1: But I think you know, the world or whatever only

441
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 1: sees the people who are on the screen, obviously, but

442
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 1: there's a whole gigantic family slash army that shows up

443
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: every single day in those long hours to make it happen,

444
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: and luck we all really liked each other, you know,

445
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: like it wasn't just the cast I got along. It

446
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 1: was like we all, you know, for the most part,

447
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,679
Speaker 1: all got along really well, with the crew and all

448
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: the different departments. I mean, we see each other all

449
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 1: day long, and we're together and we're working together, and

450
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: it's it was great. It was like even when people

451
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,959
Speaker 1: were in bad moods and our crew was still so

452
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 1: happy and smiling, You're like, get me out of this

453
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: bad mood and like put myself, you know, just smack

454
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 1: myself into like a little bit of perspective here, you know.

455
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 1: So that was it coming to set. Did it? Did it?

456
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 1: Definitely did sometimes most of the time. Did sometimes you

457
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: come in with a good mood and then leave it

458
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: not because of the crew, but yes, yes, And there

459
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 1: were definitely times where I thought, today, it's going to

460
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 1: be a good day, and then you kind of get

461
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,160
Speaker 1: stuck in this like this is not how I thought today.

462
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,360
Speaker 1: It was getting I think that happens in every department.

463
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: You had a really hard job as a steadicam operator

464
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 1: with the numbers, So I'm curious was there a number

465
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: that you thought, oh, my gosh, this is so difficult

466
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: to get through. Um. You know, I could go back

467
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:22,359
Speaker 1: to any any UM sectionals or regionals or whatever where

468
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: we would continue this song and you wouldn't stop, So

469
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: that would that would really kill you, and they wouldn't

470
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: kill me because I I did make it through all

471
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,959
Speaker 1: of them. I don't think we ever had to stop

472
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: a take because I was exhausted. But if you remember, well,

473
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 1: it was the Jonathan Groff song Highway to They did

474
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 1: two songs in a row. I forget what they won.

475
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: One was whatever, that one was my Bohemian Yeah, yeah,

476
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: that song was more. That was longer than we had film.

477
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: We had the magazines which were four hundred feet. Yeah,

478
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 1: they lasted like four minutes and fifty seconds and the

479
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 1: song was like five minutes and twelve seconds. So we

480
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 1: could never get the entire take on one magazine. So

481
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,959
Speaker 1: we were starting to do we would we would do

482
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: one where I would start at the beginning and do

483
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: the do the song, and then we would always lose

484
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 1: the last twenty seconds, and then we would do another

485
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: take where I started like thirty seconds in that we

486
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: would get ending. But that was definitely tiring wild I

487
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: mean that's that's actually they're movie where we had a

488
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: lot to cover. They're very physical. That was a super

489
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: physical one. There is one I mean in terms of that.

490
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 1: If you remember, Corey Corona was my my daughter Ryan

491
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 1: had a nickname. But I'm not going to say, um

492
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: it's cute. I have to talk about GIF why later

493
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:56,479
Speaker 1: with it? Anyway? You know how the stages come together

494
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: and there's the pit, right ye Corey say my life

495
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: several times. One time we were like, I was like

496
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 1: stepping from the stage over to another section beside the pit,

497
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 1: and literally there's a triangle of air right. No, and

498
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: literally I'm backing up and he's usually like pressing me

499
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: into place and this and that. I didn't like to

500
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: be touched. I was like, don't touch me, just talk

501
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 1: to me, right and literally I'm coming around and they

502
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 1: just put their hands down and supported me as I

503
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 1: walked over. I have no idea if they hadn't done that,

504
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 1: it would have fallen in a pit, which is I

505
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 1: don't know that I ever felt my God, but I

506
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 1: didn't see you fall. I never saw you fall. I

507
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 1: don't think I fell on that show. Wow, because so

508
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 1: many times you probably should have. Yeah, you didn't, I know,

509
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 1: we found my bad fell I mean, that's also probably

510
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: why we didn't run into you, because Corey was always

511
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 1: just right there. Ye offending you actually quiet, quiet, angel

512
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 1: I did you did? So we're going the first season.

513
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: We're going. We're at Long Beach, the conference center whatever,

514
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 1: the exposed center, oh yes, and we're pushing in through

515
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: the doorway and there was a sign up top and

516
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 1: so on a wide lens, it didn't look as grand

517
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 1: or we couldn't get as closed. So they put me

518
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: on this tight lens. But they wanted them move to

519
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 1: look fast, and it moves look faster on wider lenses,

520
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 1: and they put me on a tighter lens. And so

521
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 1: I was going through and so since I had to

522
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 1: go so fast, I caught my foot on that tiny

523
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: little door jam, which was only like a tiny little bit,

524
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: but it was when you when you run fast, you

525
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: kind of throw the weight in front of you and

526
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 1: catch up to it, right, And so I did that boom,

527
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 1: and my rig just landed on the ground, popped out

528
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: of my arm and fell over to the side. Right.

529
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 1: But Corey comes up to me and he says, Andrew,

530
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 1: I right before this take I was going to tell

531
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: you to be careful because I thought it was going

532
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 1: to happen. It was just anyway moment, But I remember that.

533
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: I don't remember you going down. Oh. I was going

534
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: to tell him, but I didn't want to, you know,

535
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 1: because he put something into somebody's mind too. Right, right, right,

536
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: I should crash your car. It's like, don't tell him that, right, exactly, exactly. Wow,

537
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 1: you guys remember doing celebrations the three hundred, four hundred

538
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: and all that, Yes, which was only possible because you

539
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: were keeping track. I feel like nobody else is keeping

540
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: track of what we were doing track, and we kind

541
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 1: of like forced our hand with Fox to make a

542
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: deal out of it, right, I think maybe it was

543
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: our first I think. So there's a big sign made.

544
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: Who did the pin You did the ping pong balls

545
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 1: where you wrote all the names of the songs on

546
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 1: them and the numbers, right, that's right, that was four

547
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: hundred and dumped him over Zack and Brooke. That's awesome. Like,

548
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 1: my goodness, I'm trying to remember five hundred was in

549
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: the cafeteria at that high school near by at Bernstein. Yeah,

550
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:07,480

00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 1: sure because Andrew he's done a lot of shows. We

558
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 1: could ask all kinds of dirt. Oh my gosh, sweet

559
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 1: different exactly. Yeah, the show that came out that was

560
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 1: dirt and they anyway, I got warning not to participate.

561
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: It's a good idea, that's right, a dirt Which one

562
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 1: of you took the most slushies? Kevin? Whoever? Wherever Kevin's

563
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 1: screen is, it's vins me. How many slushies did you

564
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 1: get in a wheelchair where it was like in the

565
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: middle of the hallway. I it was eighteen? I think

566
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:12,280
Speaker 1: it was eighteen. That was crazy? Person had two? Yeah,

567
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: that was cold. Did you have to do it twice? Like?

568
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 1: It's a good thing. I don't want kids because I

569
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 1: don't think I'll be able to have this. Did you

570
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 1: have to do do it twice? Yep? And I was not.

571
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 1: We did. We did it twice, and I was not

572
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 1: stoked about that because I was like, direct, I mean,

573
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 1: it's not gonna get any better, did it? I think? Fouchuck? Yea,

574
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 1: we got it, didn't we get it? And we did

575
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 1: it purposely slow to make sure that we got everyone

576
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: and that it worked and it they wanted a safety

577
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 1: and I was like, you've got to be kidding me, Andrew,

578
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 1: did you ever get um like in Slushy Fire? Did

579
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 1: you ever get slushy? So I um metaphorically I did.

580
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 1: Can I do two slushy stories? Yes? Okay? So that

581
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 1: you're we're doing like one of those sectionals regionals I

582
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 1: don't know, with all kinds of names for those things.

583
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: And I went up to one of the characters. Remember

584
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: the one where at the end you guys all do

585
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,799
Speaker 1: um confetti out of the slush. Yeah? It was like,

586
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 1: was it likely? Yeah? Okay, So one of our original songs,

587
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 1: and I went up to one of the characters and

588
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: I said, at the end of the song, will you

589
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 1: throw that confetti right at me? Right? And so in

590
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: my mind I'm thinking throw it right at the lens right,

591
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 1: SETTI taking a string like this, that whole cup of

592
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: confetti went right here, right. Gosh. That's my one slush story.

593
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: The other one is um on the Pilot if I

594
00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 1: don't know if a lot of people know this, but

595
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: the one where Lee gets the slushy interface, the very

596
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 1: first one that we did. That was a one take deal.

597
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 1: We did it once. Wow. Super stoked about that anyway, Yeah,

598
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 1: because I don't think we ever did it again where

599
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: it was just one take on they were experimenting with

600
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 1: like jel Yeah. Yeah, we watched that episode and it

601
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:24,320
Speaker 1: didn't work. It doesn't look right. Yeah, I didn't. Here's

602
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,879
Speaker 1: my third slushy story. I forgot give it to us

603
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 1: Jacob Artist, remember Jacob. Yeah, so we're doing a slushy

604
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 1: on him, and I came up with this genius idea

605
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:36,439
Speaker 1: to put a camera inside the cup, a very small

606
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 1: camera like ki oh yeah, and then we fill it

607
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 1: and I'm the one that's gonna operate that camera, right,

608
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,839
Speaker 1: and so I'm gonna slushy him. And I went like

609
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 1: this and it was like a thick slushy and it

610
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 1: didn't quite come out. So I went like this again

611
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:55,840
Speaker 1: and the cup just left my hand, went into his space.

612
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 1: Needless to say, we didn't do a second take on

613
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: back and hit in the face with a slushy cup.

614
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 1: It's too late. I don't have any limits, legal limitations.

615
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 1: She was a big part. The lollipop was a big part.

616
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 1: I just remember that. I'm looking at a picture of Oh, yes,

617
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: Katie Perry, So I had a lollipop in my mouth

618
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 1: most of my always, that's right. What was that? It

619
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 1: was a sugar drip. Okay, fair enough, give me my

620
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 1: energy and then you're like, at some point you're like,

621
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,279
Speaker 1: this is a good buck. Yeah. Maybe it was like

622
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:41,319
Speaker 1: wearing the same socks throughout the whole basketball, but we

623
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:46,640

00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:37,880

00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: episode where you have to you had to hide in

637
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:44,360

641
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 1: I was outside on the the bus. Tina was in

643
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 1: upset that she couldn't be inside with everybody, And so

644
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 1: I didn't have to do that very heavy episode of shooting.

645
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 1: Yeah you guys a little bit? Yeah? Yeah, who? Like

646
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,399

00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 1: Kevin in the STD outfit Jenna, did you get did

648
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:25,560

00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,840
Speaker 1: and Washington Square Park at like six am, freezing, like

651
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: what is happening? How did we get here? That was also,

652
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,879
Speaker 1: I don't know, there's a lot of There was also

653
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 1: a scene when we were filming that yeah. I don't

654
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,200
Speaker 1: know if you remember this, but I don't want to

655
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: say which scene it was, but nobody there was a

656
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 1: scene in that episode where nobody was doing their lines correctly. Oh,

657
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 1: and everybody got yelled at Oh, and I had I

658
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 1: had some minds to say and nobody was feeding me

659
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 1: the correct I was like, to be kidding me and

660
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,440
Speaker 1: everybody is off. Yes, I'm like, this is a bare minimum.

661
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 1: I was like, that was towards the end when the

662
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: wheels were falling off, Like, okay, can we your wheels

663
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 1: were falling right? Did you have a favorite director Andrew

664
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: that we worked with. I always liked when Ryan directed

665
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:31,280
Speaker 1: because of his ideas. He's I mean, I'm not brown nosing,

666
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 1: but he's a genius director in a lot of ways.

667
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,360
Speaker 1: I've seen him take scenes that are falling flat and

668
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 1: like Rye, so Ryan, and he was a creator. So um,

669
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:43,279
Speaker 1: there's that. There were so many good directors that had

670
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: great personalities, Like I can't remember of any director that

671
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: wasn't like pleasant, you know, because it was it was

672
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:56,640
Speaker 1: potentially a dramedy or whatever musical dramedy. Um, I remember

673
00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 1: who did um Rocky Horror Shankman is definitely fun. Much fun. Yeah,

674
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 1: he kept the mood really up and and like we

675
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:15,880
Speaker 1: talked about that. Yeah, Bred Baker, you know some of

Speaker 1: know Alfonso, we love Alfonso. He his episodes looked beautiful,

684
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:02,359
Speaker 1: but the process was challenge. Yes, that's what I will say. Yes,

685
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,759
Speaker 1: I sound director, I worked with I worked with Alfonso

686
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 1: later on another show and he was a gym. He

687
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:14,120
Speaker 1: was a gem. So yeah, no, great person processes. Yeah,

Speaker 1: and his creativity is just right there. That's right. Right. Oh,

689
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:19,799
Speaker 1: here's the fun one that was early on was the

690
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:26,359
Speaker 1: Mattress episode. Do you remember that? Yes? Yes, Van Halen song? Right? Yeah?

691
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: And then was that not fun or was? I mean

692
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 1: what's your Yeah? Well, and then to do it on tour,

693
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:35,920
Speaker 1: continue to do it on tour where we're like we

694
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 1: had to jump on trampolines every night. My gosh, really

695
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 1: really fun. Then you just brought that back to memory.

696
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 1: I did work on the Glee movie or whatever it

697
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 1: was called three Glee three Yeah, which which was like

698
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:52,359
Speaker 1: a blip in our lives, like because it was the tour. Yeah,

699
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 1: it was like in the little tour and you were

700
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,240
Speaker 1: kind of like, is this going to actually happen? Based

701
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 1: on the amount that we've shot? What do you? That

702
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 1: was very surreal, Like we just I feel like we

703
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 1: didn't get a lot of takes. We just kind of

704
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,919
Speaker 1: shot it like once on one soft number and then

705
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,439
Speaker 1: that was it, and you're like, Okay, is that what's

706
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 1: what's going up? Yeah, this could be a false memory,

707
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:18,120
Speaker 1: but I do feel like during the because we shot

708
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:22,320
Speaker 1: some without an audience, just like for safeties. Maybe I

709
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,839
Speaker 1: should say that, but we did, and then we shot

710
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 1: the actual performance, right, I remember you coming out on Steadicam.

711
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:33,320
Speaker 1: I think during might have been like one of my songs,

712
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 1: so I think it was a pyt or something like that,

713
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 1: and looking up and seeing Andrew and like backed by

714
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 1: like sixteen thousand people or something like that. Is this

715
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 1: did you do that? Did I make this up? So?

716
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:50,840
Speaker 1: The guy who did steadicam was Henry but it wasn't me.

717
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 1: But I was in the back. Here's the deals to

718
00:43:55,760 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 1: do the tight lens because I know who's sangwich parts

719
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 1: following all the close ups. When Henry was the one

720
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 1: who got to haul around the three D camera, it

721
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:08,879
Speaker 1: was like a specialty at the time to do three

722
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 1: D and he was. He was certified, so I need

723
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 1: to do it. Unfortunately, I would have had a blast.

724
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 1: There is something about being on a live stage. Oh yeah,

725
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 1: we're huge behind the scenes with nobody, and then when

726
00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: you're on a live stage with somebody, Oh my gosh,

727
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:30,880
Speaker 1: right on. Experience is crazy to see that oh my yeah,

728
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,799
Speaker 1: and everybody coming with their like Warbler jackets or their

729
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:37,840
Speaker 1: their Glee jackets, high and yeah, dressed up like you.

730
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 1: You're like, what is happening right now? Andrew? What is

731
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 1: the feeling that Glee leaves you with when you think

732
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 1: about the show? Oh my gosh? Can I go back

733
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,920
Speaker 1: to the who is the lady who started it? It

734
00:44:56,080 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: was here we Go, Lillian Adler, But it's very different.

735
00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:04,360
Speaker 1: We is about opening yourself up to joy. Can I

736
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 1: steal that? You can totally steal that. My memory is

737
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: not very good. But I always remember how I feel

738
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 1: when I meet somebody, when I do a project or

739
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 1: something like that. I don't remember some of the details,

740
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:19,680
Speaker 1: but I always remember how I feel. And at the

741
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 1: end of that show, it felt so good, But then

742
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 1: it also felt like this can't end, right, Like I

743
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 1: don't want this to go away. It was hard, right,

744
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,879
Speaker 1: I don't really wrong. It's hard but still worth it,

745
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: and most things that are worth it are hard to do.

746
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:40,360
Speaker 1: So it was, you know, maybe like warmth warmth in

747
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:44,880
Speaker 1: my heart boy, and just a ton of good memories,

748
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 1: you know, because all the bad stuff is just like

749
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,680
Speaker 1: I just remember the game stuff. You know. It was

750
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,640
Speaker 1: like we went to summer camp together and it lasted

751
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:57,040
Speaker 1: six years, really long. Yeah, that's a really long, awesome

752
00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 1: summer camp that you never want to end, right, Yeah,

753
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:03,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, how is your feeling at the end,

754
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,959
Speaker 1: you know? It was like that, Yeah, yeah, I think

755
00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,960
Speaker 1: because we knew there was an end in sight. Once

756
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 1: we had kind of gotten through that weird transition of

757
00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 1: like kind of being done with the show or being

758
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: like ready to move on and then coming back for

759
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:23,720
Speaker 1: these last two really special episodes. That's when it started,

760
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,160
Speaker 1: and they did you know, they threw those parties for

761
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 1: us and the big circus on New York Street lot

762
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 1: on Paramount, which was so cool. They really pulled out

763
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,720
Speaker 1: all the stops for to say goodbye to the show

764
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:37,640
Speaker 1: and everybody coming back like it was really special, um,

765
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,120
Speaker 1: and it really put things in perspective. And then having

766
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 1: all this time and space away from the show has

767
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:48,359
Speaker 1: been like awesome to look back in a different, more

768
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:52,480
Speaker 1: fond way where you we had some space away from it.

769
00:46:52,600 --> 00:47:00,360
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, I got two questions, can I ask them? Yeah,

770
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 1: you can do whatever you want. This is your show.

771
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:05,160
Speaker 1: Should I forgot the first question? I'm so bad? Am

772
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:12,080
Speaker 1: I going? That's okay? Okay, yeah, go to the second

773
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:16,080
Speaker 1: question that you can think about metaphorically at the end

774
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 1: of the show. If you would have taken anything from

775
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 1: the set, what would that have been as a souvenir? Okay, right,

776
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 1: well I did take something. Well, I don't want to

777
00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:32,839
Speaker 1: say that you took something because it's okay, no, they

778
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,520
Speaker 1: let us take one thing. Okay, there you go, So

779
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,760
Speaker 1: you're very kind allowed to take anything. So oh okay,

780
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:41,440
Speaker 1: so oh, I don't think I was supposed to take

781
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,400
Speaker 1: what I took, but I took it. I took the

782
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,799
Speaker 1: cloth off the glee club wall of the glee choir

783
00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 1: room wall. Right, Kevin took the wheel I took the wheelchair,

784
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:54,920
Speaker 1: which I was not supposed to do, but I stuffed it.

785
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 1: Somebody got it in the car for me and Andrew.

786
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 1: What would you have taken metaphorically, Yes, if you were

787
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 1: to have taken something. If I were, I would have

788
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:13,400
Speaker 1: really liked to have had the lamp on the piano, okay,

789
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 1: And that would have been potentially the banner when you

790
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:27,799
Speaker 1: guys won your first national Nationals. How cool. I'd ask

791
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,799
Speaker 1: to see it, but since you know it, probably i'd

792
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 1: have to draw where else pathetically? Yeah, okay, I want

793
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,399
Speaker 1: to I know we need to wrap up because we've

794
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:40,200
Speaker 1: taken a lot of your time, but I just want

795
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,360
Speaker 1: to ask you one thing before we go really quickly,

796
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:47,040
Speaker 1: because I feel like the most iconic shot of Glee,

797
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:50,279
Speaker 1: which is during a musical number and it started and

798
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,279
Speaker 1: don't Stop Believen, where you go off the hand and

799
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:56,160
Speaker 1: into the light, that shot you'd probably you'd probably describe

800
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,839
Speaker 1: it more eloquently than I just did. Um you have

801
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: always done that and it became such a staple, really

802
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:06,279
Speaker 1: quickly in all of our numbers, and I can't think

803
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:09,280
Speaker 1: of the show or doing a number and not seeing

804
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:13,440
Speaker 1: that image in my head? Was that how did that happen?

805
00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 1: How did that come about? Was that your calls that

806
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:18,600
Speaker 1: let me try this? Here's the deal? That shot was

807
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,479
Speaker 1: probably my career maker with Glee. Because we're shooting, we're

808
00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:27,520
Speaker 1: just discovering the show, right Ryan, It's show I'm discovering.

809
00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 1: At Chris Batha's everybody's discovering. And you guys were doing

810
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 1: that number and Corey and Lee, I do that thing

811
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,560
Speaker 1: and I just go up to the light and it

812
00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:43,640
Speaker 1: was impromptu, you know, it was just and we so

813
00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:45,640
Speaker 1: then we cut after that, right, and I look over

814
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:48,360
Speaker 1: at Video Village and they were just so excited and

815
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:50,560
Speaker 1: thought it was awesome and it made me feel super good.

816
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,040
Speaker 1: And so that was just like the thing that's where

817
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,560
Speaker 1: they're like, yeah, I want to I want to say,

818
00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 1: that's where they fell in love with me. I don't

819
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 1: know if that's true. That's that's where I think our

820
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:06,439
Speaker 1: roman started. And so then why not keep it? Right?

821
00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:08,319
Speaker 1: That was the kind of one of those things that

822
00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:12,360
Speaker 1: we did, and I kind of worked every single time.

823
00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:17,240
Speaker 1: I really did it. Was a statement. It's a fun thing, right, Andrew.

824
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 1: We are so grateful that you came on the show

825
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:23,680
Speaker 1: and you got to share your experience. We again, we

826
00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 1: really can't say this enough times that Glee would not

827
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 1: have been the same without you, without you, you as

828
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 1: a person, and without your skills and talents as a

829
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 1: steady cam operator and you know, acam operator. So we

830
00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:39,480
Speaker 1: are just really grateful to know you and have you

831
00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,040
Speaker 1: as a friend and have you on the show. Thank you.

832
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 1: I'm flattered and I feel like it's a privilege to

00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:48,000
Speaker 1: be here with you two awesome people, so happy that

834
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:51,080

837
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 1: I know I keeps saying that, but he really is.

838
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: And you could just tell from um all of his stories,

839
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,359
Speaker 1: like he loved being there, like our crew actually really

840
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 1: loved being there too, which was really nice. And we

841
00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 1: loved our crew. They are they are family. We still

842
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 1: keep in touch with a bunch of them and we

843
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:17,760
Speaker 1: really love them. We need to have more crew members

844
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 1: like him on because I think it's hard to explain

845
00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:23,880
Speaker 1: how close we all were, and to actually, you know,

846
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:28,680
