This is the full 30 minute interview that Ben did with Doug since the one that appeared on Transmission Awesome Episode 4 had to be trimmed down, and yes it is video based.

    Awesome interview, guys! One problem though, when Doug talks at 11:11, his voice is muted.

    Shhh, Doug! Benzaie! You're only feeding the gay fanficcer's flames! :P :o

    Seriously though, thank you so much Benzaie for showing this and putting this all together for us, the fanatical audience. ;D

    Awesome interview and quite down to earth as well! I enjoyed it immensely. The announcement was very cool! Thanks, my favorite Frenchman!

    Very interesting and fun stuff to hear. Even though the answer for the origin of the characters / 5 sec movies is going on repeat every time now ;)

    I'm also curious about the muted part... but it's probably some spoiler they wanted to cover up and not ruining a surprise or something. :)

    At first I thought he talked without his voice as a part of a joke, but it really is muted.

    I'm kinda new to this community and so it was very interesting to hear about that guy [i]behind[/i] the glasses.
    Even though there were some technical issues such as incoming phonecalls during the interview - absolutely none professional guys (unless you make some sort of running gag out of it)!! And of course the missed chance for the right answer to the question to choose between movies and boobies... (There can be only one answer to this - movies about boobies!)
    But apart from these minor fauxpas it's been a very interesting and entertaining interview and I hope, and actually I'm sure, it wont be the last we've seen. Thanks to the both of you!

    Good to know that im not only guy whose favorite movie is Brazil. Usually when i say movies name no one doesn't have a clue what that movie is.

    Ok interview.
  • benzaie  - Hey Guys !!!

    I'm glad this is finaly up...

    Sorry for the minor issues like BIIIPS and PHONES and VOICE CUTS... but keep in mind : This is an Unedited Version of the Interview that Aired on Transmission Awesome... so that actually shows you what's behind the scene, and how it is to record such an interview...

    If I wanted it to sounds and feel professional it would have 10 minutes shorter, and with a lot of cuts... but I thought that Fans from here deserved a FULL UNEDITED INTERVIEW...(appart from the music and Jingles) so you can have an exclusive look at ppl behind the site

    I hope you enjoy it...because it's more of a GIFT to the Fans than an real interview, the real interview was on TA...

    Enjoy boys ;)

    thanks for comment

    Great!, my two favourite revewers of all time!!
  • Kwizatz  - Get a decent microphone
    The one visible on the video looks like one of those cheap ones that come within the cereal or certain software, now I can see why the sound on your videos suffer.

    Just a suggestion.

    thee one you see on the video is the mic I used for the podcast, but the sound you here RIGHT NOW is the one from my cam who DOESN T have a mic input, so I have to do it with the built in

    So if you want to know how my "cheap" mic sounds, listen to the podcast, it's kinda better than the one on the cam..

    but my sound is not DREADFULL, I'll improved eventually but right now all I can do, is cleaning the sound through software

    To be honest, this video just bored me... although I like your other videos, Benzaieasfweyqtaqtjdswysh ehyuswta, or however you spell your name. (I think I got one letter wrong)
  • baba44713  - Loosen up, Doug!
    It always amazes me how shy and uncomfortable Doug seems when he has to be "himself" in these interviews. Seems he feels much better when he's behind his characters and has complete control of the situation.

    awesome interview benzaie
    just a little question:
    Is the music playing at one point of the video some kind of Phoenix Wright (from the DS) remix?

    I think I'm listening to crushman's theme at some point too...

    I vote for having webcomics here! wooo! I wanna see your drawings :D
  • Cferra
    avatar
    Webcomic, huh? Sounds like it'd be cool. I wonder if I should do the same ith my sprites...

    Anyway, awesome interview! It's great to see Doug and learn more and more about the man behind the glasses.
  • Dgtlrnn042  - Good art
    I made my way to http://douglasdarien.com and found the webcomics. I think the Dayna one was really clever and cute. The Rat also looks like it would've kicked a$$.

    I wonder how many people would've found the site without Doug mentioning it like this.

    Har, good to have the whole interview, it felt like it was lacking on the Transmission Awesome 4 episode.

    It was niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice

    Yeah, I heard the podcast, it does sound less "damp" than this one, I guess I was recalling the sound on Wiz N' Liz, did you use the camera mic on that one as well?.

    I never said "DREADFULL", but it can definitely improve, if anything try recording the audio separately and then sync it with the video later in post production.

    Awesome!!!
    Make more videos like this!
    It'd be nice to see one about each of the authors on this site (including you, Benzaie!).
    And what about making another contest, now about those webcomics?
    That'd be awesome, and rather inspiring!
