What I learned from the making of "Six of One, Half Dozen of the Other"
Shannon Neil Hodson
Producer/"Sarah"

1) My 7 year old cousin writes comedy as well as we do. (and I don't mean that as some self-deprecating remark about our writing abilities - I literally mean she is a 7 yr. old comedy writing prodigy) Watch the credits to see what I mean...

2) Red Bull tastes like sweet-tarts, and if you combine 4 cans of it with 3 hours of sleep, it causes a hangover much like that caused by tequila or perhaps, say, moonshine.

3) There is nothing that Hunter cannot fix in post.

Things I learned From Making "Six of One, Half Dozen Of The Other."
From Brad C. Hodson
Head Writer/Barbarian Two

1) A mouthful of fake blood tastes like liquified moldy cookies.
2) Anything is cooler if you add guns and missles to it.
3) 36 hours without sleep makes my wife very sick.
4) 4 cans of Red Bull and a box of Girl Scout Cookies turns into crack cocaine in your digestive system.
5) God is a squirel named Lionel.
6) The back of my head looks like Creed.

Rusty Butler - sound man
Things I learned on the production of "Six of One , Half Dozen of the Other" :

1. When holding up a boom mic outdoors , be sure to put sunblock on your arm.
2. People don't pay attention, ( when theres a huge camera sitting in the grocery store line , it's unlikely that it will be able to ring you up.)
3. All it takes to re-create my apartment is a chair , a piece of lineoleum, some electrical tape , and a c-clamp rack. ( see post production)
