Quality Control Chicks

In this episode, we will delve into the noticeable mistakes that come from using practical elements on set that didn’t exactly translate well to the final edit of the film or tv episode. Discussions include, but are not limited to: American Sniper, Chuckesemee, creepy Yoda and more!

We also breakdown why sets might choose dummies over real actors, practical over CGI, child labour laws and how distracting empty coffee cups are.

As always, listen to find out out QC levels breakdown at the end!

Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Holiday and we will see you in 2025!

The SCREAM discussion continues with 5, 6 and marketing!!

We’ve entered the post-Wes Craven, or Radio Silence, era of the franchise now. This time around, we focus more on story details and how marketing ties into potential spoilers.

We’re BIG Scream fans here at QCC and part of being a fan of something means you can still appreciate it for it’s flaws. We could go on and on about these films and, we do! So, this is part 1/2 where we talk all things Scream mistakes across films 1, 2, 4 and a bit about 3…. If you’re interested in the full discussion, stay tuned for part 2!

In this episode, we discuss mistakes and goofs we’ve noticed across film and tv that likely occurred in the production process. Things that ended up in the final edit that originated during the filming process. More specifically, boom mics, crew members, equipment… etc.

A note on the discussion: The film I discuss that I worked on IS out. It’s called CARVED and you can find it on Hulu and Disney+!

Stay tuned til the end for our QC rankings!

Hello! We are the Quality Control Chicks, Janae and Lisa.. and Jack (sometimes)!

In this first episode, we will discuss mistakes and goofs we’ve noticed across film and tv that likely occurred in the post production process. This could be anything from colour mistakes, power windows, filters, editorial glitches and the occasional bad CGI.

Having gone through film school, we got to learn a lot about different facets of filmmaking that we carried with us post-grad.

Our second job, in the industry, together was working at a Post Production house in Toronto as QC Operators. We were tasked with finding errors on final episodes of tv shows or films before they went to air. Some errors are made during filming and some are made in the post production process during colour, VFX, and delivery.It was our job to flag these issues with a degree of offence for the viewer.

Will it be noticeable enough to disrupt the viewers experience and can it be fixed?
