- (narrator) It's time for the daily panel,
where Joe's factory associates get to review
recently made merchandise.
- Merch? Or dog food?
(Sharon gasps)
- Shut up!
- I'm gooped.
- Okay, I thought this was gonna be like a really dramatic lead up
of like oh, him and his crew come in,
and they're just gonna bring a bunch of dogs,
and there's gonna be a really cute like aw, the crew is dogs.
It's like no, it's actual people eating dog food.
- (woman) This one's got peas and carrots.
- She's the like Gordon Ramsay of the dog food world.
She said (smacks lips) there's some peas and carrots in here.
Like, okay girl. (laughs)
- I feel like anything that my animal eats,
I should be able to as well.
So good, but also, uh?
- Oh, is this a sound person?
- Ooh, a Foley artist.
Okay, I learned all about this when I took cinematography.
- Oh, I love! (scratches table)
- (narrator) Gloves with paperclips are dog paws.
- (narrator) Even what you hear... - Whoa!
- (narrator) From footsteps on a snowy path.
- Oh!
- This is crazy to me though.
- Yeah, I've seen this before, this is actually pretty sick.
- That's honestly so cool though.
The things that they do are so creative.
They're like bringing in random stuff.
- I think it's a super cool job,
and you actually have to be really good at it.
- I didn't know of the position, like name, but I knew that there's
people behind the scenes making the sound sometimes, yeah.
- (Tori) My name is Tori Keerl, and I'm a certified smeller at Nissan.
- (gasps) Certified smeller?
- (Tori) I think new car smell does improve the driver's experience.
It's pretty important to US customers.
- She's not wrong.
- Wait, hold on, no.
I would actually be so upset if like, somebody just sniffed down my car,
just like right before I got it, like girl,
get your nose out of my car like that.
Like, what are you doing?
- This is bizarre.
- (Tori) You get to be on the odor panel.
- That's, and she's got a clipboard.
She's going through checklists.
- Aw. (laughs)
- That makes sense though, like, that new car smell
is so significant to so many people who buy cars.
- I am deeply intrigued. A sniff-ologist.
An odor connoisseur.
- We all know new car smell, but that's her whole job?
- (narrator) Matt Slagle is one of the master modelers...
- (gasps) At LEGOLAND, yes!
- Oh, wow!
- Bad job for me.
- These are so, they're so cool.
- (narrator) 10 million blocks on Miniland USA,
with New York alone using three million.
And everything there, from a car to the statue of liberty
had to built exactly on a 1:20 scale of its real life counterpart.
- What?
- And the way that it even, down to the bottom, like...
That's insane!
- (narrator) In each of San Francisco's painted ladies.
- Wow! That's pretty incredible.
- How did you like get this job?
What do you put on your resume?
- It is crazy to know, hey real quick,
somebody put that together, person, hands, bricks, did that.
- (man) So what do you do for a living?
My best, Tom, I do my best, okay?
- No.
- What is this?
Soap? Oh, food!
- Oh is this like commercials?
Oh, okay, that's gorgeous.
- I had to give it some time.
Swear to God, I thought that was somebody
who just works at the Eggo warehouse,
just snipping waffles. (laughs)
- Oh yeah, burn it!
- Wow, why would you grill watermelon?
- I knew they styled it somehow but I didn't know that
that was how they did it.
- Oh, that is some pretty bacon. I gotta admit, I gotta admit.
- (React) So the profession here is food styling.
Food stylists basically just make food look really good
for advertising and for commercials.
- That's cool.
- (React) Fun fact for those watching.
We actually have a food artist and culinary producer on our team
for our People Vs Food channel!
- Yoohoo!
- (React) Go subscribe to them!
- Shout out to People Vs Food. You'll see me over there. (laughs)
- (James) Good luck is a hop, skip, and jump away, hop to it.
- (gasps) To make fortune cookies?
- James recently took over writing fortunes
from his predecessor, who retired due to writer's block.
Oh, what a sad day!
- Due to writer's block? Huh?
- Not writer's block from the fortunes!
He just got tired, like,
that's why some of them don't even be fortunes now.
They just be telling you stuff. (laughs)
- (James) Writing a fortune is actually quite difficult.
It's a small piece of paper, it's basically like a tweet.
- Success is a team sport. That's not a fortune!
- I've gotten some real stupid ones sometimes though,
I won't even lie. (laughs)
- Oh, I would love to write some fortunes.
I think I'd be really good at it, for a short time.
- (narrator) Elaine Hall is what is known in Hollywood
as a baby wrangler.
Her job is to make sure that child actors are safe on set.
- Aw.
- I get that, and that is very important.
- (narrator) Hollywood has specific time limits...
- I do know that. I am a child, so,
I do have to follow those rules. (laughs)
- I don't know if the job title is like the best name,
a baby wrangler?
It sounds like she's about to get the lasso,
like get your ass over here. (laughs)
- (narrator) When working on Akeelah and the Bee,
she was able to get a baby to hysterically cry on command,
simply by fake crying herself.
(Elaine cries)
- That's hilarious.
- She's like if I cry, you cry, team sport.
Success is a team sport.
- I know about these,
and they are so good at what they do,
at getting that shot done so fast.
- (narrator) Hey, who's ready for a quick social experiment?
- I work in entertainment at Disneyland.
I know a couple people who work at Disneyland.
- Sometimes you can see me.
- (narrator) Come on America, I believe in you.
- But most times you can't.
- (narrator) So...
- Because I drive the floats.
- He drives the floats?
There's people driving the float? I thought they just go!
- I never thought about people driving the floats.
I thought it was honestly, one of those just like,
they just know the path.
- I worked at Disney, I did parades at Disney,
so I knew a bunch of the float drivers.
- (React) What do they see out of? Where do they see?
- Not a lot is the answer.
- (narrator) Your favorite video game characters
might be created digitally.
- I saw this, they did this for like Just Dance and stuff.
- Yep, mocap.
- Oh, I've done this!
- (React) You've actually done it? - Yeah!
- (narrator) All kinds of video game characters.
- Oh, this, I would like to do.
Alright, I would like to do this one.
- I've had a couple of friends who've done mocap,
but like, it's so cool to see stuff like that.
- (narrator) Motions are captured by a computer in real time.
- Uh huh.
- (narrator) Are then translated to the CG character in the game.
- Okay, that's pretty sick.
- (narrator) All the more realistic, he has to get really physical,
especially for particularly dramatic moments like this roar.
(man roars)
- (laughs) Wow, dude chill.
- What? He's good at that!
- This one, I'm jealous of. Put me down!
I'm in!
- Okay, a melon cutter.
- Nope, it's a no for me.
- Listen, shout out to all the fruteros out there,
selling the fruits on the streets.
- She's very fast, don't chop your fingers, girl.
- Decorative fruit. No, damn it.
- I'd only be able to count up to,
probably eight and a half, if I had this job.
- Are we positive it's not a fruit basket?
I'm getting very fruit basket-y vibes.
- Are these the people who like package the boxes of fruit?
Wait, they don't just come like that?
- They're not like cut by machines,
they're hand cut?
- (React) A lot of people are surprised by the fact
that all of that packaged fruit... - Yeah.
- (React) At the grocery store is actually cut up by somebody
in the back of the grocery store.
- Yeah, the ones that come in the little cups, yeah.
- I assumed, just like I'm assuming there's someone who like
bags up the little bulk items.
- I know some grocery stores just have it,
like the people out and I've seen them cut the fruit.
- That's their daily thing.
Going back there and chopping them cubes for you at Whole Foods.
- (React) Would you want any of these jobs, Ulises?
- Um, particularly no.
But it was really interesting
to find out what people do on the daily, you know?
- I actually thing the most amusing one
was the Disneyland float driver.
- The driving the float thing,
I think that would be fun,
but I think for a short period of time,
because I think I might get a little bored.
- I would wanna be the fortune cookie master writer.
There's gotta be some twists and turns in there.
I gotta tell people to be like always look over your shoulder,
you never know what's happening!
I wanna write those kind of fortunes. (laughs)

That's the sound for a body being dragged across a table.
