Things that are unintentionally hilarious are far more hilarious than things that are intentionally…hilarious.
A couple of years ago, I answered a Craigslist ad (doesn’t every good story begin with that?) looking for actresses to do short infomercial type things for this new vegan awareness group. I was a vegan at the time.
The guy who was shooting the commercial was very nice and extremely passionate about his cause but…not really a film expert. He sat me down in front of the camera with a sheet of facts he printed off the internet, and then he made me claim I was a model and that we were filming in Hollywood, CA. Nevermind the fact that Nashville is a bajillion times better than LA.
This looks like it’s supposed to be a joke or a Christopher Guest mockumentary but unfortunately it’s serious. My favorite part is the dead soulless look in my eyes. And the editing. And what’s up with the inserts of the weird cut up looking hand?
*do not use this video to gauge my acting talent
*also I promise I’m not that creepy in real life
*also, I mean no disrespect to the guy who shot this. really. he is a very nice person.
Since I’ll be out of town on for an acting gig (that I didn’t find on Craigslist) and unable to blog for a few days, I figured I’d leave my lovely readers something to laugh at all weekend.
What is YOUR favorite part?!!
at the beginning, you nearly shush yourself?
#cantstoplaughing #iloveyoualways
I think that’s due to poor editing. My favorite part is that I can’t pronounce “anesthesia”.

Also, here’s another one I did that is even creepier.
Laughing so hard. Thank you. Very much. I’ll get to work on those interview questions now too I suppose.

I am guessing the weird cuts to his hand are his way of saying “andddd CUT” , except he forgot to cut the scenes and his hands…. ?
wow just watched the 2nd video, i feel bad to laugh but the editing is just like… wow
Haha I totally agree. I feel like a bad person, but his editing is horrible! But I guess he’s at least trying?
.brown girl.
I felt bad laughing too, but not bad enough not to post it. We can all just pretend we’re only laughing at my horrible delivery…deal?
Except that we are laughing at every part of this..except the animal stuff.
