How to Make a Monday

Drew shows off the making of I Love Mondays.

By drewbert   |  March 1, 2011

Hey y'all. At the risk of breaking the illusion, and driving you all insane with our banjo loop, I thought I'd give some insight into what it takes to edit a typical segment of I Love Mondays, from start to finish. So, in the immortal words of Jonesy, "here it is... at ten times speed."

Wow...  I do not envy whoever has to do all this, and this is for one of your shortest features!

And holy crap... just got to the part where you use Giant Bomb (the website itself, not some internal database) as a source for assets. Way to eat your own dog food.
