An Instant Home Studio for Penn Jillette

My first-ever legitimate producing credit is as Associated Producer of Penn Point with Penn Jillette. I was of course thrilled to make this show as a fan of Penn & Teller. Penn is incredibly prolific on his own but I assisted him with research and topic ideas. I programmed episode calendars, supervised edits, curated assets and managed uploads, merchandising and deployment. I produced over 100 episodes.

Ryan Vance, the head of content at Revision3, had the brilliant idea of building a fully-automated studio in Penn’s house. All Penn had to do was press record on 3 cameras. The lighting, audio and framing was all pre-baked for him so he could just get into his flow. He’d overnight FedEx the cards from Vegas and we’d edit them in the Revision3 office for a quick turnaround given their topical nature.
