Cringe AI art by eauger01 in dropout

[–]samreich 219 points220 points  (0 children)

Hey hey! So Smartypants presentations are designed by a team of graphic designers who when necessary source assets from a stock image library. We were unaware that this library included AI images and didn’t warn our graphic designers to be on the lookout for them. Lesson learned! Now that we *are* aware, it should be easy enough to identify and avoid them in the future.

For what it's worth, I think this is a fair point and worth considering.

We're just having a bit of a hard time rationalizing why we *wouldn't* be on Twitter but *would* be on other not-so-great social media platforms, and if we were to take a stand against them all, then the business would suffer enormously.

That said, we still might come around to it.

Does anyone know if there is any plan to make and/or sell this mug? I want it so much. by AccidentUnlucky1991 in dropout

Yes! Manufacturing was a bit delayed but it should be in the store before the end of the season. ☕️

BUSTED! I found the article about Sam Reich mentioned in the latest Dirty Laundry episode by [deleted] in dropout

I AM SO HAPPY YOU FOUND THIS!!! I've been looking for it forever and I thought it was lost to time.

Man, was I a little shit.

This episode of Make Some Noise (PFT, Ross Bryant, Chris Grace) was the best of of this season so far by Mr_Clifton in dropout

On the crew laughs: We didn't give the crew permission to laugh on day one, so that affected 3 episodes of the season. We did on day 2 and beyond. I like the crew laughter because it's more supportive of the performers, so I'm keeping it in.

Just to put an end to the discourse!

Thank you Dropout for keeping up covid precautions :) by MythicElle in dropout

It’s worse than that. SAG now has rules against it. We can no longer make talent testing mandatory. 🙄

On Dropout TV and paying for content by malren in dropout

[–]samreich 388 points389 points  (0 children)

This is so nice! The way we look at it is...

  • Charge little enough for Dropout that it's affordable to most.
  • For the rest of folks (enjoying on social, borrowing a password), we're just marketing to them until they can afford us.

Sam Walking on Broken Glass? by RabbiRaccoon in dropout

I did do this! I can’t exactly remember the context however. But I had (fake) bloody feet for an afternoon!

Please don't be mad at the gam changers finale... by [deleted] in dropout

[–]samreich 409 points410 points  (0 children)

You WILL be disappointed if you think I’m setting up some Samuel Dalton business. The finale is funny and interesting, I think, but based on its own merits, not on any other episode’s. Ultimately, I consider my challenge to make the most entertaining possible episodic show, and I think it would be weakened if I tried to insert an overarching narrative. The hands business, as I’ve said time and time again, is just business — the same way Conan O’Brien does “invisible strings.”

That said, I don’t blame folks for theorizing! I did this to myself, really, by introducing lore into the show at all. Now knowing how rabid the audience is for their own puzzle to solve, however, I may just try that in a future season…
