You On You: Reality

Here is the DuckPower entry for the 'hp: You on You Project' that was held on the YouTube website. This contest was about creating a short video about yourself. Basically the rules were: don't show your face and the maximum running time is one minute (plus the bumpers which adds about 7 more seconds). Note the little things: The red stapler on the desk, the manager was also played by me with a split screen, the girlfriend and dog pictures
on the cube walls are headless. Unfortunately the way the contest was set up even the best videos won’t win so I tried for a unique approach. I might have strayed from the spirit of the competition by going with the cynical approach with the dark comedy but I had fun anyway which is really what it is all about.

Director’s Commentary:
This is my first set. I created a makeshift cube in my house with stuff that I had lying around. I wasn’t able to shoot the film in my real cube because I would have had to remove a wall to get the shot.
