Written and directed by Olivia, this short film was her chance to step outside of the audio world and enter the film industry. Creating this concept for a short film, she wanted to give herself the experience of as many roles as possible. For this gig her roles include, writer, director, producer, boom operator, sound recordists, post audio engineer, and participated in a director’s cut session.

This creative piece is a satirical infomercial that addresses and mocks the concerning and damaging agenda of the infomercial industry through irony. This piece draws on critical theories of capital discourse, critique of consumerism, and critical visual theory.

The script and on-screen acting channels absurdism by fusing comical and off-putting themes to enhance the overall message, and cultural engagement through showcases of mockery and slapstick. Through such, we are enlightening and educating viewers, by evoking discussions and skepticism towards manipulative marketing and the structured agenda these infomercials encourage.

The structure of the narrative abandons traditional storytelling with an exposition, rise of action, and ends at the climax with no fall of action or resolution. The substance of the script is satirical and ironically ridicules the infomercial industry with absurd uses of symbolism and assertive literary devices. The text and tone highlight critical theories: capitalist discourse, critique of consumerism, and critical visual theory seen in infomercials through mockery and slapstick. Taking inspiration from Adult Swim’s Unedited Footage of a Bear, the narrative portrays the direct influence of the disturbing and absurd mood created by the script and other audio and visual elements.
