A story conference without Walt but fruitful nonetheless.
I’m a sucker for gags, and I really like the unused suggestion that when mining the diamonds, one of Sneezy’s sneezes blows the already mined diamonds back into the wall.
Also note that they’re not just putting in gags for gags’ sake (maybe why the above gag wasn’t used), but insisting they further the story such as “gags that show their cleverness along labor saving lines.”
This meeting mostly concentrated on staging the story, which is very important: you must not only have a good story line but also have good execution. This conference concentrates on execution.
