Holy fucking crap! This is a stupid-long behind the scenes look at the making of a Talkbot episode. The embeded video is 1280×720 so put it full screen mode to see all the details. Be warned, that bad boy is 275MB. You can save a little bandwidth by watching this iPod/iPhone compatible version – it’s a mere 133MB.
The example Talkbot episode in this video is “Back To Normal” from yesterday. It’s about as simple an episode as we can make. It actually took about an hour and a half to make (not the 37 minutes of this video). What was cut out was some of the story brainstorming, reworking one of Lifal’s lines of dialog, music selection and lots of progress bars and app launching.

Wait, Aren is the one that likes 80s music? I thought it was Verdi. Hmmmmm.
I watched this and it didn’t feel 37 minutes long. That’s a good screencast.
