In this special episode, Steve and I break down the recent promo video from PixelFX for their new "Retro GEM" product. The promo opens with a very devisive comedy sketch which we attempt to break down the same way I would analyse a comedian's Stand Up routine.

We both like the product, the PixelFX team have a very strong track record in our community and we respect the work.

That sketch tho.
