Here is a little film I made. When I first saw this set and the characters, I thought, “How hilarious!"So I made fun of the fact that one of the characters is ridiculously dressed. There is also a bit of a plot how he acquired his attire. If you cannot take a joke, this is not something you will want to watch. However, if you can laugh at the expense of others, what does that say about your personality (see, funny).
The characters have no names. This was intentional. I wanted to portray a casual relationship between two good friends. They simply refer to each other as “Man” and “Bud.” They are having a great conversation about the attire one of them is wearing. Little does the audience know, there is somewhat of a dark and twisty way of how the character attained it. The plot thickens as he begins to explain the tale of how he ended up in this ludicrous outfit.
I decided to give them an English accent. Everything is funnier when spoken like a true “Brit.” The accent was more for dramatic effect. I thought in terms of the outcome, this would pack more punch when the other character realizes some disturbing news about his dear friend. The fact that it starts out so casual and how he talks about his experience, it will leave a little puzzled and possibly squeamish when you complete the circle.
It was only supposed to be a sixty seconds but after the first thirty seconds of writing the script; I just let it flow and did not want to leave any important detail out. The truth is, it was too hard to cut it down and still make it make sense. So, please do enjoy!
