Jeep: Test Drive #2


In this 3 1/2 min video I take the Jeep for another drive, getting used to a new shifting pattern and the overall ride.

Currently, I really have to stand on the brake to stop. Once I’m sure I can operate safely, I’ll take the Jeep onto some city streets.

So many questions. How long does it take to produce one of these? How many voice actors are used? How many of those do more than one voice? Are there out-takes? (God, but I’d love to see those). Do they video the production process? If more than one writer, do they have writer’s meetings?
