Our first short MeTube was a viral sensation (not the kind you report to the doctor) and has reached over 1.6 Million Views on YouTube! It was an homage to all the amazingly silly and talented people that create videos from their living rooms every single day around the world. Watch it here:
So why stop there? Exactly!!
We have designed MeTube 2 to be bigger, bolder and better than the first MeTube! AND this time we've got an opera house on our side! Our magnificent Partner: Bayerische Staatsoper!After Elfie and her nerdy son August have successfully proven themselves in front of their webcam at home in MeTube 1, the odd pair now ventures onto the street to present the biggest, boldest and sexiest
operatic flashmob the internet has ever witnessed!
Elfie and August already set out on the streets of Vienna in search for support:
But, "what's an operatic flash mob?!," you might ask.
Who the hell knows?! We're gonna try with the Bayrische Staatsoper, so help us be the first to pull one off on this maniacal scale.

When director Daniel Moshel isn’t busy picking his nose, he devotes all his time to his sons and … making films of course! As much as he loves building lego houses he loves creating new adventures for his all-time heroes August and Elfie.
Off-screen our nerd
August Schram lives the turbulent life of a Swiss opera singer, constantly on the search for new challenges to push the boundaries of classical music and contemporary pop culture.
The
Bayerische Staatsoper described MeTube 1 as the "electro-queer-old-people's home-version of the Habanera". They also love our new project and this time they are even on board for the production. We already went to Munich and recorded the Carmina Burana with the grandiose orchestra of the Bayerische Staatsoper. It was an exciting experience for us and you can sure look forward to the result!

We almost fainted when we got notice that the first MeTube was going to be part of the official short film selection of the 2014 Sundance Film Festival. So you can just imagine how (absolutely great!) we felt when we heard that there is the possibility of premiering MeTube 2 at Sundance 2016! Seriously though, how awesome would this be!
Beyond that, our first attempt at this was picked up by distributors around Europe, and we were featured on TV. Remember the good old days when they would play cartoons and short films before big movies? Well, they still do that in some parts of the world and we have already gotten letter from distributors to play our EPIC FLASH MOB before some feature films!
And lastly, a humble side note: The first MeTube won more than 26 international awards, among them the Grand Prix from the Music Video Festivals in Berlin and Paris. We promise (fingers crossed) that MeTube 2 will win at least as many!
We couldn't be happier, but even with all this great support waiting for us after it's finished, we still need your help to complete this epic flash mob!

This short is a very special project for us.
By the time you are
reading this we've been working on it for a whole year to get where we
are right now. And we are so close! The one thing we need to make it
happen is your help.
We've already gotten some initial funding pledged in the form of grants and generous contributions.
But in order to help the team accomplish everything in our script and storyboards, we are asking for a matching goal of
$25,000 here on IndieGoGo to cover the rest of the costs of production, including actors, cameras, lights, costumes, set design, visual effects, crew, and the food to feed them!

We know that 25.000 $ is a lot of money to
ask for a short film, but we will spend it wisely and the result will be
spectacular! That being said - only by gathering this sum will we reach
the minimum amount necessary to realise the film. And should we by any
chance reach our goal or maybe (dare I even say it?) overshoot it, you
can be sure that every penny will go into making this crazy project even
crazier! Let's invent a new kind of crazy!
We need you to share this campaign with everyone you know to
help spread the word about our project. If you can spare a few
dollars, please consider being a part of this journey in viral
filmmaking.
We hope you'll share our vision and support us!
Thank you!
