How four sketches show the disparate inspirations of production designers (and Emmy nominees) Cindy Chao and Michele Yu.

That mixed tone also applies to the mood on set. “This is a sketch comedy show, so there’s the perception that we’re working fast but being silly about it,” says Yu. “I don’t know that we’ve ever worked on anything where everyone is taking it so seriously.”

Yu adds that the speed at which the production works requires a certain level of professionalism. “All of these sketches are really mini-movies,” she says, and putting all the pieces together for so many sketches requires an incredible amount of planning. “It’s intense and immense, and it’s very helpful to be working in the art department with people who have that approach.

Chao also notes that this sketch was shot out of order, which added more challenges for the art department. “We dressed the space for the funeral ball, and then we had to reset it to its original state for the start of the sketch,” she explains.
