Tue, 11 July 2006 Production Notes (The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift) Planning the Podcast Monday came and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift was on the list for our next Podcast. Knowing this movie would raise opinions, not much research was necessary, besides trying to research; “why Tokyo?” Once we figured that there was no reason of why, we planned understanding the movie by eating lots of Japanese food. Though we’re not experts, eating a lot of Japanese did not help out our experience with the movie, which meant, we had no choice but sit and watch it. Day of Podcast Since our dear friend Mike Stand temporarily died, it was up to John and Danny to bring some insight on Tokyo Drift. Setting up was interesting, because it was the first show that would only have two panelists, instead of the magical number THREE. Though low expectations were anticipated, (just like the movie), for only having two panelists, the energy was high. Though it was a challenging Podcast to do, Movie Menu feels the show was good enough to post. Post Production Once finished, we had to decide how we wanted to approach this. We expected ten minutes tops, and actually had a twenty minute podcast. So much editing was needed in order to make the show a success. Though we were down one man, the dedication was there and only took us 3 weeks to finish, (ok well not really), but even if the movie didn’t have high expectations, doesn’t mean the Podcast of that movie should also have low expectations, so we had to step it up a notch…or not…you decide J.
