      I say it sometimes. Is “aight” a good enough bye, what about “later”? Sometimes if it’s a quick work call hardly anyone says bye.

        You have to tell them that you love them, everytime, or it’s not even close to a proper bye. That’s how you get an in with the HR folks really quickly so you know that they have your back. Work on easy mode, more or less. Like and subscribe for more social lifehacks.

        Nah, I don’t think “aight” suffices, but “aight, later!” would work.

    For it is :

    • Preparing a huge breakfast and then they take a bit and they say I need to go
    • People drinking coffee or other drinks but you see clearly that they don’t, why film that ?
    • Turing the wheel of the car like crazy when they on a straight road.
    • Wearing shoes inside the house even when they are about to go to sleep.

      Eating and drinking on set is notoriously difficult to pull off. You see one take, but the crew has done about 17 takes of the same scene. Even with chefs on hand, they can’t bloat the actors up with food. Hence why in most dinner scenes, there’s a lot of cutting and mocked chewing but little goes in their mouth.

        It is not that difficult as other directors do it well. I see that in Japanese shows. It is OK if actors pretend to eat or drink when it is believable. In many episodes of Seinfeld we see the actors drinking coffee but we can clearly see that they weren’t taking a sip.

    I’m a doctor so I know how dying people act. It’s unrealistic that a dying person, like a couple of seconds before he/ she’s completely gone, to talk much sense. They speak random stuff, disoriented, or in a complete panic state until they lost their consciousness and then die short after.

    Every movement with a gun sounds like there’s a loose screw in it (it always clicks). Also it usually has a clip of 300+ bullets.

    Every mouse or keyboard input into a computer, every loading bar, every screen popping up makes screaching sounds. Except when having a failing DVD drive or broken hard disk I’ve never heard any computer making these sounds.

    A secret tracking or listening device has a blinking red light and beeps.

    Every car, always with airconditioning, drives with open windows because of the window reflections. Even during rain, extreme heat or highly contagious zombies trying to bite you through the open window.

      the gun sound they always use is the sound of a colt single action revolver which has a very distinct set of clicks.

      the sound design of the real world is rather boring and often unappealing. Sound designers on movies are gods of those audiotary universes, they will paint it however they want

        I was behind two cars on the freeway, one in lane 1 and one in lane 3. They both decided to merge into the center lane at the same time. I remember the sound distinctly because it was so different than I expected. It sounded like two large, empty cardboard boxes hitting each other. No screeching tires or glass breaking sound (both windshields and side windows broke, but remained intact). It was very unexciting.

          yea precisely. Sound design is less about how it really sounds, but more about how you think it should sound + some flair to make it a show.

          Fun fact! sometimes in movies when there’s a big fire sound designers will put animal roars into the fire sounds to add an extra layer of fear you don’t even realise your body is going to react to

      And I always anticipate an “unexpected” crash that almost never happens. Even in shows where it would never happen.

      1964 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu had a bench seat and headrests didn’t come until the 66 model. A 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu could have saved Marvin.

        Yeah, I noticed it didn’t have a place to put headrests, so it was more of a “if this car had been designed with headrests” sorta thing.
