For years, Zimman and Sossin have collaborated on numerous projects. During this time, the two have built a strong relationships founded upon trust and communication, essential components to any successful professional venture. When it came time to embark on Comedy Central’s latest challenge, Sossin was confident that Zimman and our team could not just handle the task of creating twelve creative spots and 95 deliverables, but surpass expectations.

The show’s executive producers wanted to highlight the stylized VFX shots created for each episode theme. However, most of the shots were not finalized as an air-date deadline was fast approaching. Thinking quickly, we took on the responsibility of maintaining track of all raw, temp, and final composite, generating daily lists to track all 12 creative spots and the state of media assets. When it became apparent that there was no budget to send these shots to a dedicated VFX house, Zimman stepped in and completed them himself in a move that saved the Comedy Central thousands in time and expenses.

We approached the project with the idea of creating a frantic and unmistakable sound that embodied the comedy club environment, and the timing of its comedians. All the while, we navigated challenging dialogue edits and rough sound bites to arrive at audio that exuded spontaneity with every cut.
