it's new office vlog time again but it starts at the old office today because
0:03
why are there so many pairs of shoes here there's more behind the door and mine if
0:09
you call these shoes well just because we're moving into a
0:13
new office doesn't mean the old office has shut down in fact we've done a lot
0:17
of cleanup which is not immediately apparent from the place where i'm
0:21
standing and we've actually added two more people that i'm going to introduce
0:25
real quick here let's go
0:37
freshbooks is the online accounting service for small business owners that
0:40
gives you the tools to make you feel like the boss you are click on my face
0:45
to learn more about it
0:48
so it starts right here this is john he's from america
0:53
oh did someone say america wow so uh he'll be helping us out with
0:57
fastest possible scripts which he's actually already been doing on a contract basis but now he's full-time he
1:02
made it across the border legally somehow i'm working on the next exciting
1:06
episode as fast as possible right now are you yes oh how rfid works
1:12
fascinating and the editing then got cleaned up
1:15
in terms of both its uh you know
1:18
appearance because we had to shoot the whole room water cooling conclusion and
1:22
its ethnic diversity so this is dennis
1:25
who is hailing from taiwan hi
1:29
i'm from taiwan he edits videos
1:34
which is good do you speak english
1:38
yeah i do a little bit a little bit just a little bit so he'll
1:43
be editing fast as possible as well as any of the other things that we throw at
1:47
him in fact he actually did uh what was that vlog style one that you did the
1:51
other day um personal rig update yeah so dennis
1:55
with some help from ed actually edited the last personal rig update as well so
1:59
let him know with a comment under the video if you're impressed with any of
2:03
the work that he's done which so far you know of one thing so
2:09
and as promised here's some more of the alleged uh
2:12
tidying up that was done so some of you the astute among you might have noticed
2:16
that dennis is sitting at what used to be my desk so i don't have one anymore
2:21
until we move that was never supposed to happen they were supposed to join us
2:24
after the move but uh so this is my desk i'm actually
2:29
sitting on what used to be kind of like a bench testing table and i'm using my
2:33
laptop as my rig which is in my backpack at the moment so
2:37
oh this is good
2:40
i don't want to forget my power adapter so let's head to the new office and see
2:44
if they've made any progress i hope to be moving in soon all right we're here
2:47
so let's go inside
2:50
i legitimately don't know what's been done since the last time i've been here
2:54
so this will be uh this will be quite the adventure here
2:59
it's a lot uh wow it's a lot more spacious over here
3:03
so a lot of the construction materially stuff has been relocated
3:09
our garbage bin is almost full
3:12
ah okay no i lied this i knew about so
3:15
we've actually had our our main man
3:18
justin over here moving a whole bunch of stuff and
3:22
assembling shelving so these shelving units which used to be just on a pallet
3:27
completely unassembled have now been put together and are full of all the empty
3:32
boxes of all the hardware that we're currently using at the office as well as
3:37
just any other low value stuff that we thought is probably safe to store in the
3:41
warehouse with all the workers milling about i don't think anyone's going to
3:45
take off with our you know horse head mask or anything like that so uh
3:50
yeah so this is actually wow this is fairly deep i don't even know
3:54
if we're gonna be able to get at this stuff uh this is set walls which i think
4:00
i've talked about before and then this
4:03
is a bit of a better look at the low value
4:07
pile in the corner here and all the empty boxes and stuff so this is all
4:11
boxes we have to keep because we're not
4:14
going to junk it and we want to have the boxes and accessories in case we ever
4:17
need it for something but we didn't want it taking up a whole
4:22
whack load of space at the office so let's move over
4:26
this way
4:35
once again something's been leaned against
4:38
the side but it looks like it's at least light this time so i don't have to be
4:42
too upset oh look at this
4:46
the peg boards have been painted so these pegboards are going to be part of
4:50
the uh the workshop set we're going to actually legitimately use them as
4:53
pegboards as well and you know hang things off of them so oh look there's
4:57
blue ones too i actually didn't know that there were going to be different colors
5:01
so esther um from ncix who is also my
5:04
sister-in-law has actually been involved in a lot of the set design and was over
5:07
here painting these pegboards i think uh yesterday
5:13
ooh brandon's going to be exciting or
5:16
brandon's always exciting to me brandon's going to be excited it looks
5:19
like we have two of his little carry things around in the warehouse
5:25
things designed for uh you know c-stands
5:28
and flags and all that kind of filming nonsense that he needs other than that
5:32
it looks like no real changes to this backdrop but
5:37
doors are going in ooh a fancy schmancy so this door is
5:43
actually going to be integrated into one of the sets here we're going to kind of
5:48
blend it put some you know stuff on it and when this door is closed where i'm
5:53
standing right here will actually be the the workshop set including an up to even
5:58
as far as over here depending on what angle we want to shoot at so
6:03
that is definite progress now we can move inside the editing den
6:08
has been painted so these are the uh you know nice bright
6:13
friendly happy colored walls in here
6:16
once the painting is done i don't know if they've done all the coats yet but once the painting is done they're going
6:20
to be able to go around and start doing finishing touches like you know actually
6:25
putting the outlets and networking jacks on here
6:28
not every wall in the place will be white though so you can see some rooms
6:32
are going to have accent walls in this case we went with an orange accent wall
6:36
for the library that should contribute to the cheerfulness i don't know
6:40
whatever we went with orange because it's kind of our company color that's why there's an orange wall don't
6:44
overthink it um wow tons of progress on the kitchen
6:49
in fact the cabinets are basically in we
6:52
still don't have the sink or anything like that and yet i think it goes on i
6:56
want to say this side but don't quote me on that and then we're going to have a
7:00
microwave here and then i thought there was a plan to have a second microwave
7:03
shelf but maybe we kicked that in the nut somewhere along the line this is where we're gonna be
7:07
storing all of our customized cutlery and all that kind of nonsense so
7:12
yeah looking pretty good so there's progress on the floors as well this is
7:17
something that wasn't quite as apparent when we were filming before so we're
7:20
putting in vinyl tiles in some places and carpet tile in other places i can't
7:25
remember what those were but presumably the floor guys know apparently one of
7:29
the flooring guys has watched a lot of our videos over the years so that's pretty cool uh in here it looks like
7:34
there's actually wet cement they are pretty close then i guess to
7:38
actually building in the bathroom stuff here so i was entirely wrong when i did
7:42
one of the previous tours here the toilet is not over there the toilet must
7:47
be here so there you go and that i guess is where
7:50
the sink goes so luke shouldn't hit his head too bad in here in spite of the
7:55
fact that the stairs are part of the bathroom
7:58
okay
8:01
uh this is where harry potter will live this is the true home of harry potter
8:06
okay a bunch of people were thinking he was gonna be living out in the warehouse do
8:10
i seem like the kind of person who would make someone live out in the warehouse
8:14
no no i am not another accent wall
8:17
looking nice so the front entryway here is going to be
8:20
livened up a little bit like that and we have access
8:25
to the stairs now wow this has changed a lot so
8:31
lots of finishing touches here while that ceiling feels
8:34
really really high i guess you lose track of how high up you are in a
8:38
building when you're standing on stairs and stuff
8:42
so let's have a look at what's going on up here doors are going in apparently there is a
8:47
green accent wall in this bathroom so that's cool
8:53
they are like really working right now so this yeah here we go so this office
8:58
i had some people notice that uh we didn't have a window in this office
9:04
well there is a window it's just built into the door
9:08
okay the meeting room looks like they have uh
9:13
looks this looks like just some little touch-ups for you know marks and whatnot so i guess
9:18
they're gonna do like an actual let's see they've done the cutting in
9:22
but not oh someone's working on this right now so that's why i couldn't
9:25
figure out sort of what stage of completion this was at the paint is
9:29
actually wet right over there in the corner so conference room more progress
9:34
and it looks like oh i get another accent wall in my office so this is what
9:39
the Linus sebastian office is going to look like with the
9:43
orange ball here and the view outside right there now
9:48
there is something i would like to address something that we received a lot
9:52
of requests for and for that we will have to head downstairs i changed my
9:56
mind harry potter will be living here thanks to the fact that there is a
10:01
sprinkler in harry potter's room that way if he's ever pissing me off
10:06
i'll know what to do gets the hose again here it is my friends you asked and we
10:13
delivered you guys wanted to see a fire pole in the Linus media group office now
10:19
yes you are seeing a fire pole in the Linus media group office is it real is
10:25
it an illusion only the editors will know
10:28
